I found this place through Tabelog while looking for a meat restaurant around Yotsuya. I took off my shoes and was seated in a room with a small raised table on the right side of the entrance. There were Alice in Wonderland-like figures placed around the room, but there were also adult men dining alone. The specialty here seems to be the A4 and A5 grade beef from Hokkaido, specifically from female cows under 3 years old. I ordered Yamazaki highball, oolong tea, horse sashimi, premium tongue slices, and various cuts of beef. The meat was all high quality and delicious, especially the A4 beef. The service was efficient and attentive, making the dining experience comfortable. They even escorted me to the door when I left. The total bill came to just over 10,000 yen. Despite being located in a building along the Tanimachi-suji street, the service and cost performance were both excellent.

On October 7, 2022 (Friday), four of us gathered at Temmabashi Station and decided to have yakiniku for dinner. We found a restaurant through a quick search and walked a few minutes from Temmabashi Station. The restaurant was located on the basement floor. Upon entering, we found ourselves in a slightly maze-like space with semi-private booths separated by curtains. Although the space above our heads was not divided from the neighboring table, the high backrests provided a sense of privacy. The highlight of the experience was the great value for money. Despite the high-quality meat served, we only paid around 6,000 yen per person, excluding drinks. We shared a 500 yen ice cream dessert among three of us. In total, we spent over 24,000 yen for four people. The restaurant accepts PAYPAY. We enjoyed the high-quality meat and left satisfied after indulging in a generous amount of it.

I visited the restaurant on a weekday night. It was past 8 pm but they allowed us in without a reservation. The beef tongue was large with no unpleasant smell. Both the lean meat and the tripe were thick and delicious. We ordered a lean meat dish, I think it was Uwamijisu, and even though it had little marbling, it was tender and rich in flavor. They had a separate menu for a variety of sake, showing their dedication. We tried Akishika since we were in Osaka, and it was served in a wine glass, making it easy to appreciate the aroma. The waitstaff were foreigners, but their service was polite and efficient. It was clear that they receive thorough training. I would love to visit this wonderful restaurant again if I have the chance.

It's mostly semi-private with a nice atmosphere, and kids are welcome. It's expensive but you can definitely enjoy delicious meat. I've been there a few times, but last time it was disappointing because there were only foreign staff. Since it's pricey, I expect them to speak Japanese fluently and provide smart service.

The only place in Kansai where you can eat A5 grade beef - we used it for a work drinking party (^-^) I want this quality for all our drinking parties! Lol. My junior colleague and I ordered expensive meat without hesitation, so everything was delicious and very satisfying. Lol. I was shocked at the bill though ( ^ω^ )

We were able to enjoy Hokkaido's top-notch black wagyu beef "Abe-gyu" at this yakiniku restaurant in Kansai. The restaurant offers semi-private rooms and a calm atmosphere, making it a great place to dine during this time. The interior was clean and spacious, which made us feel comfortable. The special selection of lean sirloin and sirloin roast yukke were particularly delicious. The lean sirloin had a beautiful marbling and a perfect balance of redness and fat, while the sirloin yukke melted smoothly in the mouth. It was our first time trying Abe-gyu beef and it was quite delicious! The relaxed atmosphere and reasonable prices made our dining experience very enjoyable.

This is a mid- to high-priced yakiniku restaurant in Temmabashi. The meat is marbled and the offal is elegant. Good things are indeed expensive (laughs). - Restaurant - Had a small drinking party with colleagues from the same project. The place was nice even though the group was small! It feels luxurious, and there's no smell of yakiniku at all, making you think you came to a different restaurant (laughs). The booths are divided by thin curtains, creating a private room-like atmosphere. The citrus-scented oshibori is refreshing. The entrance is a bit hard to find, and the restaurant is located underground. The restroom is outside the restaurant in a mixed-use building. The menu prices are excluding tax. They use "Abe beef" from Shiraoi, Hokkaido for some of their meat. The offal is priced below 1000 yen including tax, but when you order good quality ones, it quickly goes up to 2000 yen, or a platter for 6500 yen, etc. We ended up ordering quite a few high-quality items (laughs). - Food - Today's selected four types of beef assortment: 7128 yen (6480 yen + tax) (as of March 2021) Includes four pieces each of four different cuts, which is quite pricey. - Ultimate Togarashi: Not sure which part it is, but the umami of the meat is amazing! It has little fat but incredible flavor! This is delicious. - Special selection Sagari: Amazing aroma! You wouldn't think it's offal. So delicious... - Special selection Misuji: This is also tender!! It goes really well with rice. - Special selection Sirloin: There's too much marbling, almost half of it is fatty (laughs), but it's delicious... Goes well with rice... - Drinks - The drinks are not that expensive. - Beer: 605 yen (550 yen + tax) (as of March 2021) Not very cold, lacking the sharpness typical of Super Dry... - Gin: 528 yen (480 yen + tax) It's gin, but it feels light. Maybe it's cheaper because it's a Japanese brand. It seems like the industry is aiming for gin after highballs recently. - Conclusion - I ate quite expensive food, but for some reason, I couldn't eat a lot and ended up spending 7000 yen alone. But I was satisfied. It was worth the high price as the service was good. They quickly replaced the grill plate and gave us odorless oshibori at the end. I would like to come back to this restaurant when I feel like having good meat occasionally. Thank you for the feast.

Visited the restaurant again with a different group. I came back in a short period of time because the food is delicious, and I confirmed that the infection prevention measures were properly implemented during my last visit. I ordered the Abe beef assortment with four types again, and the Ichibo was still delicious! There are different grades of tongue available - normal, special, and Hanasaki, but I prefer the Hanasaki that I had last time. The special grade I ordered this time was also excellent! It's a joy to stuff my mouth with meat without cutting it with scissors (I forgot to cut it). The Kalbi was also delicious, worth the price. In the end, I ended up ordering the dishes that I enjoyed before as a kind of review. I don't want to eat a lot, so I'd like to come and try a little bit at a time.

By the way, we haven't had a cherry blossom viewing party this year, right? Well, we can't really do it anyway! So, I decided to have a solo cherry blossom viewing at a local park near the office, which is a famous spot for cherry blossoms. At such times, I realized that I only have a few more reviews left in stock. Maybe it's because of the influence of the coronavirus, but I'm starting to avoid going to restaurants at night. Regardless of the cherry blossom connection, on a certain day, I decided to summarize the reviews of Sakura, a restaurant we visited for a work gathering. Let's believe that the day will come when we can enjoy a party with a positive attitude. Now, back to the main topic... On this day, we had a gathering at the yakiniku restaurant "Sakura" near the office. Looking back, I remember the bitter memory of dining with our boss in a couple's seat (two men!) when this restaurant first opened, which I'd rather forget (laughs). Today, I hope to blow away those bitter memories with a fun gathering. The Abe Beef Yakiniku Party Plan for 4,400 yen plus all-you-can-drink for 1,700 yen. First, we started with salted tongue. The perfectly sliced beef tongue is a perfect opening for a yakiniku party, ideal for pairing with beer. Who doesn't like this? Next, we had a selection of lean meat. Not too fatty, not too heavy, it's light but rich in the umami flavor of the meat. That's the characteristic of Abe Beef, which is reliable and easy on the stomach even for those in their middle age and beyond. The draft beer is really delicious, and the atmosphere of the restaurant is great (except for the couple's seat incident, haha). I really want to work hard and visit this place again (^ ^). *Photos have been added from recent visits.

This is Yakiniku Sakura located on Yotsubashi Street. The entrance to the restaurant is on the basement floor. The tongue salt has a unique texture and taste! You can also enjoy luxurious meats such as sirloin and sea urchin meat sushi. In addition, the yukhoe is quite rich and flavorful, and once you mix it with the raw egg, you won't be able to stop!

The yakitori restaurant I usually go to is great, but sometimes it's good to try a new place. So, I decided to visit a restaurant called "Sakura" that I've been curious about in the neighborhood. From the sign, it seemed like they serve good meat. I forgot to take a picture of the vegetables, but I made sure to have plenty of them. I always tend to order the same things wherever I go, but here they had a variety of lean meat options like rump, peppers, and tenderloin, which made me happy. As I get older, fatty white meat can be tough to digest, so I appreciate having lean meat options. The lean meat here was pink and tender. The room was divided by curtains, giving a private room feel and allowing me to enjoy my meal in peace. It's nice to visit such restaurants once in a while. Thank you for the delicious meal.

I was invited to a recommended yakiniku restaurant by a friend in Tenma-bashi, where I don't usually go. They use a brand of beef called "Abe Beef" from Hokkaido. It was my first time trying Abe Beef, and it was delicious with just the right amount of marbling and rich flavor. The tongue was thick and satisfying to eat! We also had a platter, yukhoe, and meat sushi. The restaurant is clean and has semi-private booths separated by curtains, so you can enjoy your meal without worrying about other customers, even during the pandemic. I definitely want to go back to this restaurant!

The prices may be a bit high, but this is the place to go when you want to eat delicious meat. Quality over quantity.

I went to an official dinner at a yakiniku restaurant and was impressed by the thoughtful touches such as aprons and fragrant hand towels. The meat was all delicious. We also enjoyed Chorogi salad, kimchi platter, namul, cold noodles, stone pot bibimbap, and more. Each table had a thin curtain for privacy, which was nice even though the restaurant was quite busy. The restaurant was located underground, so it felt a bit cramped.

Two bosses from the company (one man and one woman) and I visited. We sat in a semi-private room with a calming atmosphere. The entrance to the room had lace curtains, which might feel a bit odd for just men. The price was a bit high, but the food and drinks were excellent, and we were very satisfied. The most delicious dish was the meat sushi. It was so tender. It was so good that I ended up ordering three servings just for myself.

Visited for the first time! The restaurant is located on the basement floor. Upon opening the door, there is a luxurious atmosphere similar to a high-end lounge. The menu is quite extensive. All the meat dishes were delicious and the side dishes were also tasty. The service was great, so I've decided to come back again!

I opted for a luxurious à la carte order this time after feeling a bit rushed with the cheap course last time. The Abegyu platter with four kinds of meat was amazing. I could really taste the meat and fat, but it didn't feel heavy on my stomach at all. The Ichibo was especially good. And the Kaonomi I ordered separately... I would come back just to eat that. It's great that this place is nearby. Let's come with friends who don't drink much next time. (It was so delicious that I forgot to take photos)

The meat was delicious and of good quality. The prices were not too high. The seating was also semi-private.

It is necessary to order a 5,500 yen course to use the private room (for about 10 people) where it is difficult to eat a lot of meat. Bringing your own food is allowed.

Delicious yakiniku restaurant with tasty dishes and private rooms, creating a nice atmosphere.

At a workplace social gathering, we opted for the cheapest course with all-you-can-drink on a weekday. The meat in the course was limited to 3 plates, so it ended quickly, but the tongue and harami were particularly delicious... The tongue had a solid meaty texture despite not being thick, and I was especially satisfied. I hope that once the pandemic is over, I can go back to enjoy just the meat without the all-you-can-drink option by upgrading to a higher course.
