I went to "Itamae Niku Aburi Sushi Ryotei Itto" in Shinsaibashi! Had a draft beer, beef tongue appetizer, premium wagyu platter (Zabuton, Hiuchi, Kainomi), wagyu tendon stew, seared upper mino with ponzu sauce, sweet potato shochu on the rocks, outside skirt, tomobara, ichibo, upper mino, yukke nigiri, and fruit. It was delicious! So good!

I decided last minute to have dinner in Shinsaibashi and visited Sushi Kappo Itto for the second time. It's a small counter-style restaurant where you can see the chef preparing your food. They have beef sashimi displayed in front instead of fish. I ordered the beef tongue sashimi again, which I loved last time. The texture and taste remain excellent. It's a rare place where you can enjoy beef sashimi. I also ordered beef sushi, which they lightly sear before serving. The menu is more like an izakaya than a traditional kappo restaurant. The meat sushi might be a matter of personal preference, but if you like beef fat, you'll love it. The sushi had a bit too much fat for me, so next time I'll try to eat it earlier. I think it will taste even better that way. Thank you for the delicious meal!

The new year has begun, and before you know it, it's time for the Toka Ebisu festival. I bought a rake and headed to Higashi-Shinsaibashi. The streets were not as crowded as usual, probably because everyone was visiting the Ebisu shrine. I decided to check out the sushi kaiseki restaurant at Yakiniku Itto-san, thinking I might be able to get a seat without a reservation, and as expected, there were empty seats available. Location: Located along Shimizu-cho Street in Higashi-Shinsaibashi, on the 3rd floor of the Itto Building. It's best to call ahead to confirm availability rather than being turned away after climbing the stairs to the 3rd floor. Restaurant: The restaurant seems newly opened, with a clean and hygienic interior. It looks more like a sushi restaurant than a meat shop. Food: The main dish is the seared sushi, as the name suggests. Instead of fish, the sushi case on the counter is filled with beef. Of course, to add variety, there are also dishes like shellfish, shrimp, octopus, conger eel, etc. Since it was right after the new year, they treated us to otoso (spiced sake) and osechi (traditional new year dishes). It was a good start to the year with these auspicious items. For the first dish, I chose the premium tongue sashimi. I don't remember ever eating raw tongue before. When it comes to meat, I usually prefer it cooked to avoid any concerns. But there was no need to worry as the tongue was thick, had a firm texture, and a good bite. It had a slight sweetness without any unpleasant odor, truly showcasing the taste of tongue. I enjoyed it with ponzu sauce and sake before moving on to the main course of sushi. As expected, the fatty wagyu sushi was delicious, but after about three pieces, I started feeling full due to the richness. Overall: It seems like Itto-san is always up for trying new things. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The high-quality meat dishes added up in terms of cost (around 10,000 yen per person), but it's a unique genre to keep in mind when you're unsure of what to eat. It was a great meal!

At the newly opened Itamae Yakiniku Itto located on the 3rd floor of Itto Yakiniku in Shinsaibashi, they offer a variety of dishes such as chef's choice sushi, fatty tuna sashimi, and assorted sashimi. The chef's choice sushi included 11 pieces and they were all delicious. The wagyu Ichibo and beef tongue yukke were especially amazing. The raw meat dishes were superb, including the beef sashimi. I have posted many photos, so please slide to see them if you are interested. My mouth was filled with pure happiness throughout the meal.

You can enjoy sushi with various types of meat from different parts of the animal.

I really like it, delicious and cheap.

I had been curious about this restaurant since seeing it on Instagram. It is located on the 3rd floor of a building, and the interior is perfectly like a sushi restaurant. They served a starter dish before we ordered sushi. I asked for less rice in the sushi, and we ordered everything on the menu. It may be hard to tell from the photos, but each cut of meat had a different sweetness, which made it enjoyable. I wish there were more variety in sushi, side dishes, and sake options, but the hostess was extremely friendly.

Today was the day for a luxurious dinner with my gourmet friends, so we discussed what to eat and decided to come to this restaurant I had always wanted to visit. We were able to make a reservation on the same day, as it was a weekday. The inside of the restaurant was small with only a counter, creating a quiet and sophisticated atmosphere. The menu consisted of meat sushi and various other dishes, with the prices for the dishes ranging from 2000 yen and up. There were no prices listed for the sushi. The staff kindly explained the menu to us, so we decided to try the meat sushi. We ordered a variety of meat sushi, all of which looked artistically beautiful. When we tasted them, the freshness of the meat was outstanding, especially the marbled cuts like "san-kaku," "ranpu," and "zabuton" which melted in our mouths along with the small portions of rice. The meat sushi was mostly rare, and it was on a completely different level compared to any other meat sushi I had tried before. The meat melted in your mouth and was incredibly delicious. Midway through the meal, we started to feel a bit full, so we tried the "menegi" for a crunchy texture, which was a refreshing break for our stomachs. Next, we tried the "tan" and "tanyukke," both of which had a firm texture but were surprisingly tender. The "miso" at the end had a satisfying chewy texture, and the norimaki was a perfect finish. We also tried the sea urchin, which was fresh and delicious. Lastly, we were recommended to try the thick-cut "tan," which was absolutely amazing. The thick slices of tan had intricate cuts that provided a variety of textures in each bite. It was a delightful experience. Overall, it was a fantastic meat sushi experience, and I highly recommend trying it out! It was delicious! Thank you for the meal!

Today, my wife and I went to this restaurant! Every dish was incredibly delicious. I thought they specialized in seared beef sushi, but they also had seafood and vegetable dishes that were all easily conquerable. The side dishes were also great, and I definitely want to go back again.

It is a small, bright, and beautiful restaurant with only 10 seats at the counter. You can enjoy sushi made with various cuts of meat. The menu for the day included a refreshing white miso-marinated tongue yukhoe as a starter, followed by a seared selection of premium cuts such as harami, misuji, and zabuton. The meat was rich in flavor without being greasy, with a sweetness that spread in the mouth. The chef recommended trying uni with the meat, which was a luxurious and delicious combination. Other dishes included boiled asparagus and broccoli, sashimi with shellfish, and a steamed dish with black wagyu beef and matsutake mushrooms. The thick-cut seared meat sushi was ordered and it was amazingly flavorful without being oily. Overall, a highly recommended place for meat lovers who want to enjoy meat in a different way than just grilling.
