Located under the elevated tracks of JR Kuwanazono Station in the Kuwanazono area, this yakiniku restaurant was recommended to me by a friend for its delicious meat. My wife and I decided to have dinner here. The restaurant has counter seats and table seats, but it is not very spacious. Since we arrived right after opening, there were not many customers, but by the time we left, the place was bustling with many customers, so it might be a good idea to make a reservation depending on the time. As the name suggests, the style here is to grill the meat over a box-shaped charcoal grill. While there is an exhaust duct at the table, our clothes did pick up a slight smell. With a wide variety of menu options, we were a bit overwhelmed, but we mainly ordered items marked as recommended on the menu, such as "Salted Kalbi (1,100 yen)," "Thick-cut Beef Sirloin (750 yen)," "Beef Tongue (1,200 yen)," "Raw Lamb Jingisukan (750 yen)," "Salted Hormone (500 yen)," "Morioka Cold Noodles (830 yen)," and "Kimchi Assortment (550 yen)." I couldn't quite tell if it was the aging process or the seasoning, but as my friend mentioned, all the meat was very delicious. Given the quality of the meat and the prices, it felt quite reasonable. My wife also enjoyed it, so we plan to come back on an empty stomach next time and try more variety of dishes.

Under the elevated tracks at JR Sugamo Station, there is a yakiniku restaurant. It was my first visit, and I ordered the "Good Job Set" which comes with harami (skirt steak), chicken seseri (neck meat), salted hormone, kimchi, and 2 drinks (I chose Kirin Ichiban beer). They had a rectangular charcoal grill set up at the counter, which was a style I hadn't seen before. After a while, plates of meat and kimchi arrived (photo shows 2 servings). The meat is generally seasoned with salt (except for Genghis Khan) and is meant to be eaten with lemon (although they will provide sauce if requested). Everything was delicious, especially the harami. We also ordered beef tongue and namul. Let's get another plate of harami. They also offer ramen, although we didn't try it this time.

I visited a building near Kuwanazono Station for the first time. It was just past 4 pm on a holiday and the place had just opened, with only one other group of customers there. There aren't many hotels near Kuwanazono Station, so I hadn't really eaten here before, but I was curious about this place in particular. The atmosphere inside was like a horumon center. We ordered pork guts and two types of Genghis Khan - red (lean meat) and white (fatty meat). For drinks, we opted for the all-you-can-drink option for 2000 yen. The guts were crispy and delicious. The Genghis Khan was also really tasty. I hope to come back here with everyone sometime.

Located under the JR Kuazon Station, there is a dining district with a neighboring or facing izakaya under the same management. The interior of the restaurant features a counter and table seating with individual charcoal grills at each table. The most popular dish is the "Good Job Set (1980 yen)" which includes Harami, chicken seseri, salted hormone, kimchi, and 2 drinks. This time, chicken seseri was not available so it was replaced with Sakura Hime chicken. You can choose from the all-you-can-drink menu for alcohol. The dishes are served ready to grill on the charcoal grill, seasoned with salt but you can also request sauce. The hormone, chicken, and Harami were all delicious and the menu and atmosphere cater to both light and hearty eaters. This is a restaurant that you can rely on for a quick bite or a satisfying meal.

I came to Ion Kuwazon for shopping. Wow, the snow is really bad, isn't it? But driving around, it seems like the snow removal in Chuo Ward is still decent. Sapporo is a huge city, so I think there may be some differences in snowfall amounts depending on the ward, but I wonder if there are also differences in how much effort is put into snow removal? I thought the snow on the roads in the neighboring Kita Ward was dangerous. Now, I parked at Ion Kuwazon and planned to go shopping, but I got hungry. I remembered that there were various shops under the JR overpass. The retro look of this yakiniku restaurant caught my eye, so I decided to go in. It was 6:30 PM on a weekday, and the table seats were full, so I was seated at the empty counter. Looking at the menu, the prices seemed reasonable. Hormone and Genghis Khan were recommended. My partner, who had completely given up on driving because of the snow, was eager to drink and ordered the "Thank You Set." It was indeed a good deal, with 2 alcoholic drinks, beef Harami, chicken seseri, pork hormone, and kimchi for 1,580 yen. Limited to one order per person. We ordered one "Thank You Set" and then ordered raw lamb Genghis Khan, premium beef tongue, and select thick-cut beef liver. I was curious about how to enjoy both Genghis Khan and yakiniku, and then a rectangular shichirin appeared. On top of that was a cast iron pot for Genghis Khan. You grill the yakiniku in the remaining 1/3 space. I see, you can enjoy both at the same time. For the Genghis Khan, they put mainly onions and other vegetables. The lamb meat is from Iceland, as written on the menu. When grilled and eaten, there is no hint of any smell. The Icelandic meat is undeniably delicious. Moreover, surprisingly, it comes in two varieties: "red" with lean meat and "white" with fatty meat. The red meat is moist, and the white meat is juicy with fat. Hmm, this is delicious! I want another serving (laughs). In the yakiniku corner, we tried grilling the premium beef tongue. It has a lot of fat, almost catching fire. We eat it when the surface is crispy. Tender, juicy, and crispy. This beef tongue is delicious. It might be the most delicious beef tongue I've had in Hokkaido. It's quite good. The liver is honestly thick-cut, and it looks like it could be eaten raw... As expected, eating it raw would be risky, so we quickly grill the surface. Hmm, rich! Delicious! There are other menu items I want to order, but I'm full. It's a reasonably priced restaurant that I'd like to visit again. Thank you for the meal. ☆3.46

I used it for a meal. The space for grilling meat was somewhat wide, making it easy to enjoy yakiniku while surrounded by people. In addition to the standard kalbi, loin, chicken tenderloin, and pork, there were also unique options like duck meat and raw lamb. It was nice to have a variety that made me want to try something different occasionally. We were not given any sauce, but the meat itself was already flavored, and since I don't use sauce much, I was quite satisfied. It is located under the Kuwanomiya overpass, so those working around here may want to stop by on their way home from work. There also seems to be a "good job set" that one person can enjoy. It might be a good idea to try that next time I visit. Thank you for the meal.

Under the elevated tracks in the mulberry orchard, there are plenty of cool shops. The first time I visited was at the charcoal grill club. The staff were friendly and the drinks were served quickly! I had beef tongue, hormone, Genghis Khan, kimchi, and sagari... even though I ate a lot, I was surprised at how cheap it was. The Genghis Khan had no smell and was easy to eat, with tender meat and delicious sauce! When the meat is delicious, the vegetables also taste good (^^) I devoured it more than usual. When I went, there were empty seats, but the seats quickly filled up, showing how busy it was... (maybe because of infection prevention, there was space between the seats!) I would love to visit again. Thank you for the meal (^^)

Charcoal Grilled Kurabu. I went there! ψ(｀∇´)ψ Wow ♫ I went on the recommendation of a friend who lives in Kuoen's elevated dining area. There is no all-you-can-drink option, so it can get expensive if you drink a lot of alcohol, but the meat was cheap and delicious!

LP-chan, who has been infected with the Genghis Khan disease, recently. Since it was a holiday, she researched Genghis Khan and nearby restaurants for her 3 pm snack. She tried calling the restaurant, but the line was not working, with an unexpected announcement. She found the restaurant's mobile number on the official website and called, only to find out that they had already closed. LP-chan decided to contact Tabelog (a popular restaurant review website) instead. They had already put the listing on hold. LP-chan didn't give up on her craving for Genghis Khan, so she found another restaurant and took a bus there. The restaurant was located in a dining district next to the station, and it was already lively inside. The staff led her to a table where there was a steel enclosure that seemed to be for a hot plate. Soon, the staff set up a shichirin (portable charcoal grill) on top of it. LP-chan ordered Genghis Khan and kalbi (Korean BBQ ribs). The unique setup of the shichirin on the steel plate was exciting. The Genghis Khan pot was placed on one side of the steel plate, and it cooked surprisingly well. The meat had a good amount of marbling and was very delicious. The side dishes like fried potatoes were made with real potatoes, and the corn butter had a generous amount of bacon. LP-chan noticed some regular customers at the counter and found it interesting that the staff would sit next to customers. This hidden gem might be worth visiting again!

It was rare for me to feel like eating horumon (offal), so I asked my husband to find a horumon restaurant that we haven't visited before. After looking around, we decided to come to this place, which turned out to be located under a highway overpass. I didn't know there were so many eateries here! It was before 7 pm and there were no customers when we arrived, but one group came in after us. It seems like a convenient place for people to stop by on their way home from work. Oh, but I can smell the grilled meat on people's suits, haha. Sitting in the middle, we first ordered drinks. I asked for Calpis soda, but it turned out to be just Calpis. Oh well, on my second try, I got my Calpis soda. As for the meat, I actually wanted to eat sagari (skirt meat), but my husband scolded me saying, "We came here for horumon, remember!" So I gave up on the sagari. - Salted Horumon: It had no strong smell typical of horumon and was very easy to eat. - Salted Gatsukori Sakumotsu (beef tripe): It had a nice chewy texture and was deliciously light. I might like this more than horumon. - Raw Lamb Jingisukan: The meat was tender and had a light flavor without any strong smell. - Super Spicy Horumon Kimchi: I thought it was less spicy than kimchi, so I enjoyed it, but when I made my husband try it, he coughed and said it was super spicy! - Thick-cut Beef Tongue: I asked for this recommendation instead of sagari or beef tongue. The thick-cut beef tongue was filled with green onions. I grilled it until the onions inside became slightly soft. It was crispy, tender, and delicious! I'm glad I ordered this! - Kimchi: It had a nice balance of spiciness and richness. Ate most of it myself. Mmm, it was delicious. And it was super affordable! It's nice to eat to your heart's content at this kind of yakiniku restaurant without getting heartburn. And the BGM was to my liking. I almost started singing "Paprika." Well, there were just a lot of popular songs playing, haha. Alright, let's buy a cake for dessert at the mall on our way home. Thanks for the meal!

Shortly after relocating, I decided to have dinner at a restaurant near the train station as my new home was still in disarray. As I strolled under the guard of the Kuwanazono Station, I came across several eateries with enticing menus. Among the various options like all-you-can-drink and evening drink sets, the words "yakiniku" and "Genghis Khan" caught my eye, instantly putting me in a "meat" mood. I quickly made my way in. While there were many single items to choose from, I found the perfect "thank you set" for me - 2 drinks + assorted pork salt hormone, harami, chicken neck + kimchi & kakuteki for only 1580 yen! As someone who loves to try a variety of dishes, this set was a dream come true. I also ordered a vegetable platter to balance out the meal. The restaurant mainly uses a salt-based seasoning with lemon as the primary condiment. First up was the pork hormone, which sizzled on the charcoal grill, shrinking and releasing a delicious aroma. It was well-prepared, tender, and free of any unpleasant odors. Next, the chicken neck was juicy and flavorful, just the way I like it. The harami had a nice texture, tender with a hint of red meat fragrance. The vegetable platter was generous, and the kimchi & kakuteki provided a refreshing break between bites. To top it off, the fact that I could enjoy two beers with this meal was unbelievable! The restaurant was packed with customers ranging from solo diners to families and even office parties, a testament to its popularity among locals. Despite some smoke, the excellent value for money and efficient service made it a definite repeat visit for me. Thank you for the wonderful meal, I'll be back again soon.

Genghis Khan, Hormone, and Bibimbap are the must-try dishes.

Still cheap and delicious as always! I love the white one! Thank you for the meal♪

Beer x 2, charcoal-grilled yakiniku with kimchi for 1580 yen. Great value for money.
