When it comes to yakiniku, I usually go to chain all-you-can-eat restaurants, but this time I heard there is a reasonably priced yakiniku restaurant near Takeshita Station, so I decided to give it a try. The name of the restaurant is "Fukumankai." It's not a very big restaurant, so reservations are necessary, but it's a great place for those who want to enjoy yakiniku at a reasonable price without the all-you-can-eat option. The location of the restaurant is in Takeshita, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City, near JR Takeshita Station, making it easily accessible. There is parking space for 2 cars, so you can also visit by car.
The restaurant is easy to spot with a large sign that says "yakiniku" on the wall. The interior is a bit cramped, with an old-fashioned yakiniku restaurant vibe, and you can enjoy yakiniku even if you're dining alone. We had a reservation for two and were seated at the counter. There are also table seats available. The first order is placed by writing on a paper.
The menu offers a variety of meats such as beef, pork, chicken, and offal, with each type available in a set of 3. There are also grilled vegetables, rice dishes, and other side dishes, making the menu quite extensive. The prices are wallet-friendly, with options like premium kalbi available for around 1,000 yen. The drink menu is also well-stocked.
We started with a cheers with chilled mugs and ordered the kimchi trio, which included an interesting yam kimchi. The popular "unlimited pork tongue" was a must-order, and it came with plenty of garlic. The option for refills is available at a discounted price. We also ordered assorted sets of chicken, pork, and beef, as well as a vegetable platter and rice.
After enjoying a satisfying meal, we ended with a dessert called "N.Y.T.I" ice cream. Overall, "Fukumankai" near Takeshita Station is a reasonably priced yakiniku restaurant that offers good quality meat. It's a popular spot with a lot of customers, and it's a great choice for those looking for a casual yakiniku dining experience.
