The restaurant used to be located near the station, but due to its popularity, it moved to a larger store. I was a bit hesitant to go in, but I went with a friend who loves lamb and will eat anything. We have been there four times already, and this place is really cheap and delicious. There are many Mongolian and Chinese customers, and I feel convinced that it must be really delicious if people from those countries think so. I like to start with beer and enjoy shredded tofu salad, pig ears, and Mongolian pancakes while waiting for the meat. The Mongolian dumplings (xiaolongbao) use lamb meat, but they are juicy and delicious without any unpleasant smell! The horse milk liquor tastes like yogurt and is easy to drink. I order it in a large glass (because it's cheaper) and enjoy it with skewers and deer meat char siu. If you are open-minded about food or love lamb, I highly recommend this restaurant.

I had a really delicious meal at a Mongolian restaurant. They mainly serve lamb dishes, but everything I tried was tasty, including their other unique dishes. I would love to go back and try their large meat dishes that require a reservation for four people.

Since last year, I have been exploring the "Asian Ethnic" genre and recently tried Mongolian cuisine for the first time. My knowledge of Mongolia was quite limited, mainly knowing that it is generally cold, known for livestock farming, and produces many sumo wrestlers. So, I decided to look up Mongolian cuisine and found a variety of dishes featuring lamb and spices. The restaurant was hosting a "Lamb Festival" with dishes like Mongolian dumplings, lamb curry, lamb fried rice, and various drinks including Mongolian vodka and fermented mare's milk. I tried the Mongolian dumplings, which were like lamb-filled dumplings with a delicious flavor. We also enjoyed some drinks like Mongolian vodka and fermented mare's milk. The lamb steamed dish was simple and tasty, while the grilled lamb skewers were flavorful with a hint of black pepper. We also tried the lamb curry and fried rice, which were Japanese-inspired dishes but really delicious. The menu also had options for larger groups like a whole lamb head, lamb ribs, and more. Overall, the Mongolian Lamb Festival was a great experience.

July 2022 Mongolian Cuisine "Aozora" ✨✨ This is a Mongolian restaurant frequented by actor Tadanobu Asano, who starred in "The Blue Wolf: To the Ends of the Earth and Sea" and "Mongol," both set in Mongolia. The restaurant is located on the 2nd floor of a building a 3-minute walk from Hatagaya Station on the Keio New Line. It seems like it used to be a snack bar, and it's quite spacious. I had never tried Mongolian cuisine before. How would the food taste? (*´∇｀)ﾉ ■Ordered Items (excluding tax) ⚫ Mongolian Hot Pot - 1,600 yen A soup slowly simmered with lamb. It includes lamb, Chinese cabbage, spinach, potatoes, wood ear mushrooms, shimeji mushrooms, glass noodles, ice tofu, and udon as a finishing touch. I didn't expect to get this much for the price. The soup is deliciously spicy! A satisfying menu. ⚫ Chansunmaha (boiled bone-in lamb) Half - 600 yen Representative boiled lamb of Mongolia. Simple and delicious. The lamb is flavorful with each bite, very tasty. Served with lettuce and pickled radish, the pickles are sweet and sour, delicious. This is a must-try dish. ⚫ Mongolian Bouz (4 pieces) - 650 yen The most popular handmade lamb dumplings at the restaurant. Take a bite of the piping hot steamed dumplings...juicy meat. It's similar to Chinese dumplings, but without the gaminess of lamb, only the umami flavor is brought out. ⚫ Ma La Peanuts (appetizer) - 100 yen Moist. The idea of making peanuts spicy is good, but the nuts lack crispiness. ■Drink ⚫ Draft Beer (regular 500 yen) First-time visitors get one free drink with a Tabelog coupon. A good deal. ■Service Due to cultural differences, the service is not very smiley. I don't think there's any ill intent, so don't expect much in terms of service. ■Price Ate plenty and paid 3,250 yen per person. Very affordable. ■Recommended For - Drinking with friends - A date with a girlfriend who likes international cuisine - Meetup It was so delicious (*´ｪ｀*) I was worried about the taste because it was so cheap, but there was no need to worry at all. Reasonably priced. The menu is also extensive, so I would like to try other dishes as well. A satisfying dinner, thank you m(_ _)m □Rating (as of July 2022) Tabelog rating 3.45, 54 reviews

After a long time, I went out for a drink with a friend! I had made a reservation at a nostalgic restaurant in Hatagaya that was said to have great food, but when I arrived, the curtain on the door was closed, making me wonder if they were closed. I mustered up the courage to open the door and found out they were open! I love lamb dishes, so I ordered from the menu from the top down. The coriander salad was delicious. The Mongolian sour had a strong acidity to it! It felt good for my body. It was a fun time. Thank you for the meal!

I visited a Mongolian restaurant called "Aozora" located just a 2-3 minute walk from Hatagaya Station and indulged in a table full of lamb dishes. The first dish I ordered was the "Chansunmaha," a Mongolian classic that was also available at a local restaurant called "Amu Tei." I opted for the half-size portion, which turned out to be quite generous, so I imagine the full-size portion would have been even more substantial. The tender boiled lamb meat, coated in a spicy special sauce, was a delight to savor. The menu also featured a dish labeled as "Lamb neck material salad," which was a crunchy salad made with lamb neck, cucumbers, and carrots. Additionally, there was a small side dish of stir-fried cartilage from the Chansunmaha, served as an appetizer. I paired these dishes with a cold beer and finished off the meal with a coconut milk-based, spicy gravy lamb curry with bite-sized pieces of lamb and potatoes. It was a satisfying meal indeed.

This time, I tried the Horhog and Booz that I couldn't eat last time. It may not have the same wild taste as the Mongolian food I had before, but that's okay. It was great to be able to introduce my family to Mongolian specialties. The Khuushuur was still delicious. The appetizer went from liver to cucumber miso pickles, so the quality dropped quite a bit (lol).

Around 10 pm on a regular day, I visited a Mongolian restaurant in Hatagaya after wandering around from Hatsudai, when the 10 pm closing time became common due to a subtle self-restraint request in December 2020. They were still open, true to the free spirit of the Mongolian people. I had some decent sake, so I tried the shochu yogurt, which was like mare's milk liquor. It was quite rich. I also had some lamb skewers. I switched to shochu yogurt with soda for my refill. The spicy skewers were enjoyable with a variety of cuts. I wanted to savor the meal more, but I was already feeling tipsy, so it was a short stay. Still, it was a fun night.

Visited about a month ago. The atmosphere inside the restaurant gave the impression that there were many regular customers. It made sense considering the friendly nature of the manager. Of course, the food was delicious. I tried a variety of dishes, but the curry was especially tasty. It had an amazing use of spices that you might not find in other curry restaurants. It might be worth going there for lunch. The dumplings were large and the skin was firm, so you might get full quickly. Overall, it was a good experience.

There is a Mongolian restaurant in Hatagaya that skillfully uses all parts of the sheep. The restaurant exudes a unique sheep aroma throughout, creating an exciting atmosphere. The unpretentious and cozy ambiance sets the stage for a leisurely dining experience, making you feel like this is your place. The lamb spare ribs are juicy, with a punchy flavor and a lingering aroma that fills both your stomach and heart. I heard they have a sheep's head for parties of 10, so let's go worship while enjoying some lamb together. °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° Mongolian Cuisine Aozora Tokyo, Shibuya-ku, Hatagaya 2-7-9 Nakabiru 2F Open every Monday from 17:00-24:00 Price: 3,500 yen

It's been a while since I visited the Mongolian restaurant "Aozora" in Hatagaya, a great place known for its lamb dishes. If you love lamb, this place is perfect - delicious, affordable, and cozy. The complimentary dish is Mongolian-style chicken feet dumplings, and the lamb-flavored water dumplings are amazing. The fried dumplings are like pies and very tasty. The cilantro salad might be the best ever! They have a variety of affordable white liquors like red sorghum, which is delicious. The ant liquor is also quite good. The regular customers, especially the older gentlemen, recommend various dishes, and the owner is friendly and kind. Many solo diners come here as well, as the atmosphere is great. The walls are covered in signatures. I have to go back soon!

I wanted to eat Mongolian food after a long time, so I visited around 6 o'clock! It was peak time, but there were hardly any customers. The inside had a Inner Mongolia-like atmosphere, and the dishes made me feel nostalgic, with a focus on lamb meat! The lamb dishes were especially delicious. Among them, the lamb meat xiaolongbao called "Mengzi Baozi" was incredibly tasty. The skewers were also seasoned just right with spices, a flavor that Japanese people would enjoy! With a coupon, you can get a free drink, such as Qingdao beer, mare's milk wine, or yogurt sour, all Mongolian-style drinks. The service from the Mongolian graduate student staff was polite, making it a restaurant I would like to visit again.

After returning from Opera City in Hatsudai, I walked for 15 minutes and finally tried out a Mongolian restaurant called "Aozora" that I had been curious about! It was my first time trying Mongolian cuisine! In conclusion, if you like lamb, it's delicious, cheap, and cozy - a great place to have nearby! The lamb skewers and deer skewers were delicious, and the Mongolian soup dumplings "Buuz" were amazing! The lamb dumplings in lamb-flavored soup were also fantastic! The cilantro salad might be the best I've ever had! The lamb curry and Chanasunmaha (boiled lamb) were great for takeout. The etiquette of Genghis Khan was cool, and the Mongolian vodka was easy to drink and a good accompaniment to the meal. The horse milk wine, which tastes like yogurt, seems to be popular with women. The various drinks like milk wine and sorghum wine were delicious and fun. They also had unique drinks like ant extract and deer penis! The regular customers, mostly older men, recommended various dishes, and the owner was friendly and kind. There were many solo diners, and the atmosphere was comfortable. The interior was covered in signs, and I already want to go back for more! I have to go again!

At the Mongolian cuisine specialty restaurant Knife, you can enjoy bone-in lamb that is juicy and delicious without any gaminess. They offer skewered dishes seasoned with cumin, salad with finely chopped tofu, horse milk liquor, Mongolian dumplings, Mongolian milk tea, cookies baked with plenty of sheep's milk, Korean ginseng liquor, cheese spring rolls, and more. The flavors of meat and milk in the dishes are truly enjoyable. The owner, who came from Inner Mongolia to Japan 10 years ago, has single-handedly built a wonderful restaurant, showcasing his true character.

This was my first visit and I was excited to try Mongolian cuisine for the first time! The atmosphere inside the restaurant was completely different from Japan, which was interesting. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The dishes were prepared by butchering the lamb from scratch, and the lamb skewers were delicious! The dishes paired well with the drinks, making it a great experience!

"Beyond the cathode-ray tube~ The cool cavalry~ Shot down the Indians~" This is a famous song by The Blue Hearts called "Aozora." In Hatagaya, there is a Mongolian restaurant called "Aozora." Every time I passed by, this song would play in my head. I always wanted to stop by, but I had never tried Mongolian cuisine before, and I had no idea what to expect. On this day, Naruhodo-kun, who doesn't like lamb, was not with us, so it was just me and my boss. We decided to go in and explore. Surprisingly, the restaurant was quite spacious. There were no prior reservations, and we were a bit worried, but we ordered some drinks. I had a Mongolian Sour, and my boss had a draft beer. From the menu, we chose boiled lamb Chansumahar (half portion) and Aozora Salad. The Chansumahar was tender and delicious, but the smell of lamb might be too strong for those who don't like it. As we started eating, more people, including groups, came in, and the place became lively. We were used to eating Genghis Khan, so we were fine, but I wondered if Naruhodo-kun would have liked it. My boss wanted something lighter, so he ordered a mushroom salad. For the next drink, we had milk liquor, which was actually a clear shochu with a hint of milk scent. We also tried Mongolian-style xiaolongbao called Mongolian Pose. It was tasty, but I felt like lamb meat might be difficult to diversify in flavor. I wanted to try the sausages and stuffed intestines, but my boss suggested, "I feel like I'll be eating the same thing forever if we stay here. Let's have ramen at an electric bulb shop on our way home." And with that, our Mongolian cuisine adventure came to an end. I wanted to try the lamb skewers and sausages secretly next time. Cheers!

I went to a very delicious and cost-effective Mongolian izakaya near Hatagaya Station. The menu mainly consists of lamb, but they also have beef and deer meat available. - Skewers (5 pieces) 750 yen - Draft beer 450 yen The skewers include lamb meat, lamb tongue, lamb heart, lamb liver, and deer meat, each for 150 yen. You can order just one skewer. They were served hot and fresh, and were in good condition. The deer meat had good fat content, and the lamb heart had a nice crispy texture. - Mongolian soup dumplings 600 yen - Fried dumplings 700 yen - Grapefruit sour 450 yen Total: 2950 yen The Mongolian soup dumplings are the most popular item, with hot soup bursting out when you bite into them. The fried dumplings are filled with seasoned lamb mince, which has a strong flavor that pairs well with the thick, crispy skin. The atmosphere was a bit sketchy, being on the second floor of a mixed-use building at night. Even though some female customers hesitated at the door, once inside, it was a lively Mongolian paradise. I was surprised by the high quality of the food, which was likely all homemade. Despite the small portion, it was one of the top Mongolian restaurants in Tokyo in terms of both cost-effectiveness and quality. Hatagaya truly seems to be a city of hidden "good restaurants."

The atmosphere in the Higashi-Hatagaya area is so plain that it seems like it would be hard to enjoy a meal, and I had labeled it as unappealing in my mind, so I never felt like going there. Despite wanting to go there for a while, I always end up going to "Ryukou Sakuya" nearby. Today, for some reason, I came to Higashi-Hatagaya with the intention of going to "Aozora" from the beginning. Well, I ordered only a small amount of food because I have a small appetite... Besides the staff and their friends from the same hometown (?) having a fun time drinking at the counter, I was the only customer there. Unlike Japanese-owned bars and restaurants where only regular customers are present, I didn't feel that sense of alienation at all. In the end, I was treated to a strong Mongolian liquor like tequila, and I was grateful (laughs). I decided to come back with an even emptier stomach next time. A must-visit again!! ▼ Special Lamb Curry (small) A slightly watery curry. It's an extremely delicious curry with a flavor that lamb lovers will adore. Even though it's labeled as "small," the portion seems sufficient for those who can be satisfied with just a bowl at home. ▼ Mongolian Boz (Xiaolongbao) Xiaolongbao made with lamb meat. It's unbelievably delicious. Goes well with beer.

I had been curious about this restaurant since last year. It all started when I got hooked on curry. The other day, I saw it on TV and thought, "I have to go there!" So, I made a reservation and went there early in the New Year. Even though they were supposed to open at 5 pm, I arrived 15 minutes early and they let me in. However, there was no heating, and it was dark inside. I couldn't wait for 5 o'clock to come. I was eager to order as the menu had so many interesting items. But there was only one staff member there. After 5 pm, two groups of reserved customers arrived, and one extra customer came in. I was worried if they could handle it all. Finally, the staff took our drink orders, but there was no sign of cooking. It seemed like it would take a long time, but I was glad I ordered first. While waiting with steamed peanuts and beer, some extra helpers arrived. They didn't seem like regular staff, more like temporary help. Thanks to them, things started moving smoothly. The dishes started coming one after another, and they were all delicious! They were just the right amount of spicy, and the mutton was tender with little to no gamey taste. Everything was so energizing. I'm glad I found out about this place. Thank you for the wonderful meal!
