I wanted to eat delicious yakiniku, so I drove to Kyutaro. It had been about 3 years since I last went to a yakiniku restaurant, as the chain restaurant near my house, Yakiniku Maru, was disappointing. I arrived on a Saturday at 7 pm, which I assume was peak time. The parking lot was full, with one motorcycle from Kadoma parked there, which annoyed me a bit. I was going to mention it to the staff, but decided against it as cars were coming and going frequently. Inside the restaurant, the interior was surprisingly elegant with a Japanese touch, despite the logo giving off a cheap izakaya vibe. I couldn't help but think that they should change the logo to something more stylish from a designer's perspective (not important). The manager looked like a university student and his loud farewell greetings to customers leaving didn't make me very happy. Once seated, I ordered a family set for around 5000 yen, along with upper harami, large and medium rice, and a drink bar for the kids. First, the rice took forever to arrive. The set plates and salad came quickly, but I had to rush to make space on the table. When the rice finally arrived, the quantity and size were off. When I asked for a separate plate, it was never brought to me. And when I requested a grill replacement, it took a long time. They were probably short-staffed, as the neighboring table's mess was never cleared. I've worked in customer service before, so I understand how tough it can be and what needs to be prioritized. Grill replacement and serving rice should be top priorities, right? This aspect made me quite angry. However, the girl in charge of our table was extremely cute and I really liked her. "Did you enjoy the melon ice cream?" she asked, and I was too surprised to respond properly, which I felt bad about. But thanks to her, I felt like coming back again. The meat was very delicious, especially considering it was part of a set. I particularly liked the sesame sauce. I wasn't sure about the types of meat, but I thought it might have been okay to order individual items. I will definitely visit again.
