Yakiniku Like Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station is located within Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station. It is situated near the transfer gates from the JR Loop Line Tsuruhashi Station's outer loop platform, so to access it from the Kintetsu platform, you need to go up the stairs (or elevator) towards the JR Loop Line outer loop direction. This was my 25th yakiniku lunch experience in Tsuruhashi, and as far as I know, there are no other yakiniku lunch options in the area (laughs). I visited around 12:30 on a holiday, and the restaurant was almost full. The staff kindly explained how to order using the tablet at the table. I ordered the W Kalbi Plate 200g, regular rice, and a mini chorogi salad (190 yen) set for 1500 yen (tax included). The W Kalbi came with 6 different sauces, my favorite being the light soy sauce. It was refreshing and paired well with the kalbi. I also tried the burnt miso sauce, which was a bit strong, but adding some light soy sauce made it perfect for me. The 200g portion of meat was satisfyingly filling. The rice with garlic seasoning was delicious, especially after savoring the yakiniku. The staff's service was the best I've experienced at Yakiniku Like. For those using the Kintetsu trains at Tsuruhashi Station, it's a great place for a quick solo yakiniku dinner. However, there are many other cheaper and tastier options in the Tsuruhashi area. Thank you for the meal.

It's too hot every day, so I feel like I need to eat some yakiniku once in a while to build up my stamina and get through this summer. For lunch today, I decided to have yakiniku by myself and ordered the 3rd most popular bara kalbi set. I got extra rice and sprinkled plenty of "super delicious furikake" on top. I used all the dipping sauces for the bara kalbi on my rice one by one, but in the end, the best combination turned out to be kimchi with spicy gochujang and garlic paste, simply drizzled with lemon juice. I ate two extra servings of rice and now I'm super full! With my stamina somewhat restored, I think I'll be okay with the heat for a while. (laughs) The yakiniku was delicious as always! Thank you for the meal! See you again! #Tsuruhashi #YakinikuLike #BaraKalbiSet #ExtraRice #YakinikuInstagram #YakinikuClub #YakinikuInstagrammer

Today, when I returned home, my wife and children were not there, making it a special day in a sense. It's nice to relax at home, but tomorrow I have to leave at 6am, so I need to wake up early. Preparing dinner for just one person when I get back feels like buying something from the convenience store. But today is a special day. So, I remembered Yakiniku Like located at the transfer station on my way home from work. It was around 19:50 on a weekday when I visited. The restaurant was operating at about 70% capacity, so there was no wait, which was just right. I had a budget in mind, but the automatic door opened, so I entered without deciding. I interacted with the touch panel to set my budget. It felt more like a salaryman who received a little extra allowance and stopped by because I was a bit hungry. I ordered a draft beer and a set of top loin and harami with negi salt from the touch panel. The meat arrived quickly and was perfect as a beer snack. The salt sauce and green onion condiment made the rice disappear quickly. The "Strike Furikake" on the table was also dangerously delicious. It made the rice disappear even before eating the meat. Is it really just legal spice? The cycle of cooking meat, eating rice with furikake, eating meat, eating rice with kimchi, drinking beer, cooking meat, eating soup, flipping meat, and repeating endlessly. Everyone quietly enjoys their meal, but inside, they must be excited. It's entertaining to observe people at the restaurant, like the man acting all high and mighty to the staff being embarrassing, or the girl next to me who quietly says "thank you for the meal" after finishing her meal. It's a lovely place. I'll definitely visit again. Thank you for the meal.

On June 19th, I went out with a colleague. When we entered JR Tennoji Station from the Kintetsu-JR connection at Teramachi Station, we were informed that there was a delay on the loop line and train operations were currently suspended. My colleague asked the JR station staff if we could pass through the ticket gate because we wanted to grab a meal while waiting. We were able to enter a restaurant and placed our order using a tablet. We ordered the Bara Cal Plate (200g) for 1,090 yen (tax included) with extra rice. Even though the restaurant specializes in individual BBQ servings, when two people visit, they have to share one grill, making the space quite tight. The meat portion was generous but the slices were quite thin. There were six types of sauces available, and we chose miso and raw soy sauce flavors. Overall, I think it was worth the price considering the portion size and it was quite delicious! Thank you for the meal! After finishing our meal, we asked the same JR station staff to let us back into JR Tennoji Station, and they kindly allowed us to enter.

Today's dinner outing review is about a unique one-person yakiniku (grilled meat) restaurant called "Yakiniku Like" located near the transfer gate of Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station on the JR Loop Line outer track. I remember being shocked when I first visited this place. Today, I visited after a long time. For dinner, I decided to indulge in the "Mega Plate 300g" for 1,380 yen, which was filled with beef belly, pork belly, and offal. Although there was no free rice refill since it was dinner time, the meal came with soup and kimchi, making it a satisfying dinner. I am grateful for my healthy body today.

You can order using a touch panel and enjoy yakiniku at your own pace with one grill per person. Rice, wakame soup, and kimchi are free for refills! I thought the meat might be average because it's cheap, but it was actually delicious! The rice and soup were also tasty! I could eat a whole bowl of rice with just kimchi. You can choose from small, regular, or large portions of rice. I want to go back when I'm hungry! However, it's surprisingly difficult to eat while grilling... Grill, wait, eat, grill, wait, eat... It's frustrating to wait like this! You could grill while eating, but if you eat slowly, it might burn so you have to be careful. It's better to grill one at a time, eat slowly, then grill again. But I can't wait! If it was a group of people eating yakiniku, I think chatting while grilling would make the wait time less noticeable.

I worked overtime and didn't have much for lunch, so I was starving when I transferred at Tsuruhashi Station. I always wanted to try eating here. I glanced at it while passing by. I ordered three types of meat and a beer to grill at my own pace. It was nice to enjoy yakiniku by myself. I'll definitely come back to eat here again. ❤️

Title: "Review of Yakiniku Like in Tsuruhashi Station, Kintetsu Line" I visited the Yakiniku Like restaurant inside Tsuruhashi Station on the Kintetsu Line after 1 pm. It was quite crowded, with about 70% of the seats occupied. The staff came over to ask if I was familiar with how to use "Yakiniku Like" in a polite manner. Since I had used Yakiniku Like in Akihabara and Ikebukuro in Tokyo before, I declined the explanation. However, I noticed that there were quite a few first-time users around, perhaps because there are fewer branches in Osaka. I ordered the set menu "W Kalbi Plate 200g" with regular rice and a mini Chorogi salad (190 yen), which cost 1,500 yen (including tax). It was nice to have 6 different types of Yakiniku sauce, although you can only choose 2 for your plate. The quality of the "W Kalbi" meat was typical of Yakiniku Like, with the focus on price (90%) rather than quality (10%). The portion size of 200g was satisfying. The rice was surprisingly delicious, especially when sprinkled with garlic-flavored furikake. It was really tasty after enjoying the grilled meat. As for the Chorogi salad, I must admit that the vegetables looked quite wilted. The staff's service was the best I've experienced at Yakiniku Like so far. If you're looking for a quick solo Yakiniku dinner while using the Kintetsu trains at Tsuruhashi Station, it's a good option. However, if you're in the Tsuruhashi area, there are plenty of other places with better lunch options for 1,500 yen. I apologize for the critical review. Thank you for the meal.

When I feel like having yakiniku, I often visit "Yakiniku no Kuchi". This time, I decided to have yakiniku by myself during lunch time. The restaurant was not too crowded, with only a couple of customers already there. I ordered the "Bara Kalbi Set 100g" which was the most reasonable option at 580 yen. It's a combination of beef and pork kalbi, but the pork had a satisfying taste. The free extra rice was also a nice touch (laughs). There were two things that had changed since my last visit. Firstly, a female staff member guided me to a table, ensuring that I wouldn't be seated next to other customers as much as possible. Secondly, it seems that they no longer offer Kip's (a Kintetsu Group card) points, which was a bit disappointing. However, despite these changes, the convenience and cost performance of Yakiniku no Kuchi remain unchanged and appealing. I will definitely visit again! Thank you for the meal.

I found this at a Kintetsu station platform. When you think of Tsuruhashi, you think of a town known for yakiniku (Japanese BBQ). The departure melody on the loop line changes to "all-you-can-eat yodeling" here. I ordered my favorite kalbi (short rib) as the main dish. During lunch hours, you can get free rice refills, which is quite nice. It can get pretty crowded depending on the time of day.

Tsuruhashi Station, a major terminal in Kansai where the JR Osaka Loop Line and Kintetsu Line intersect. The area around this station is filled with casual dining establishments, with a particularly high number of yakiniku (Japanese barbecue) restaurants, creating a savory aroma on the station platform. Two years ago (2020), a Tokyo-based restaurant called "Yakiniku Like" that specializes in solo dining opened in the Ratchi area on the Kintetsu side, rapidly expanding nationwide. This establishment made a bold move by entering the yakiniku paradise of Tsuruhashi. While transferring from the Kintetsu Line to the JR Osaka Loop Line and passing through the outer loop side concourse, I noticed this "Yakiniku Like" restaurant. Feeling a bit hungry, I decided to give this newcomer a try. The interior of the restaurant mainly consists of counter seats for solo diners, but there are also tables for four people. As a solo diner, I was naturally guided to a counter seat. In front of me, there was a dedicated smokeless roaster. Each seat is equipped with a touch panel for menu search and ordering. The menu mainly consists of sets that include various types of meat such as kalbi and loin, along with rice, salad, soup, and kimchi. It's quite diverse. I selected the "Master Kalbi & Harami Set" (150g for 1,150 yen) and the "Choregi Salad" (190 yen) through the touch panel. I also ordered a draft beer (Happy Hour for 290 yen). Since I was having beer, I opted for a small serving of rice which was free of charge for a large portion. Ordering through the touch panel was easy and convenient. I've noticed more and more restaurants adopting this system lately, and I've become quite accustomed to it. It's nice to be able to take your time and order without feeling rushed. Each seat has a faucet for cold water, and six types of sauces and seasonings are set between the seats. Chopsticks and wet towels are stored in drawers under the counter. There is a curious recess in the counter. Soon, the set arrived along with the draft beer. The tray of the set fits neatly into the aforementioned recess. Ah, I see how it works now. It's all very systematic. The Master Kalbi is thickly cut and marinated, while the Harami is thinly sliced and also marinated. I grabbed them with tongs and placed them on the roaster to cook. While waiting for them to cook, I started with the salad. I poured the Choregi dressing from the small packet provided over the lettuce and cucumber for a refreshing taste. This helps prevent a rapid increase in blood sugar (although I was already drinking beer...). The sauces include two types of soy sauce-based dips (rich and light), burnt miso dip, grated garlic, lemon juice, and gochujang, offering a variety of options. I chose the soy sauce dip. Since the Master Kalbi is thick, I cooked it slowly. When dipped in the sauce and eaten, the meat juices overflowed. The tenderness and quality of the meat seemed good. The Harami is easy to tear apart as it is thinly sliced, so you need to be careful not to overcook it. The taste was decent, but the portion was a bit small. It seemed like the quality of the sauce covered for it. The seaweed soup was delicious, and the kimchi was decent. Considering the content and price, the cost-performance ratio was good. However, in Tsuruhashi where renowned yakiniku restaurants are abundant, there are plenty of cheap and delicious options outside the station. The significance of this restaurant's existence is probably that you can easily enjoy yakiniku while waiting for a transfer, even if you are dining alone.

Today, I worked in Yao and it was hot, so I finished quickly and headed home. I stopped at a transfer station for lunch and found a yakiniku restaurant inside Tsuruhashi Station where you can change the grill each time, which is great! Eating alone at the station gate, typical of Tsuruhashi (laughs). I had the Bara Kalbi set (200g) for 1050 yen, which was thinly sliced and easy to eat. I topped up my rice with the delicious yakiniku and garlic for a stamina boost. I feel like I've regained my energy! Thank you for the meal! Address: 2-1-20 Tsuruhashi, Ikuno-ku, Osaka City. Phone: 06-6796-8929. Open from 11:00 to 22:00, closed on holidays. Feel free to follow me on Instagram/Facebook/Twitter. I participate in blog rankings, so your clicks are greatly appreciated! Your support means a lot to me. Thank you!

I came to Tsuruhashi but didn't have much time, so I had a solo yakiniku lunch at Yakiniku Like Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station inside the station. This restaurant has a dedicated grill for each person, so even solo diners can enjoy yakiniku easily. They have a water supply system like a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. The table has a hollow where the yakiniku plate fits perfectly. Orders are placed through a touch panel system, which is very efficient. I ordered the Negibara Kalbi set (150g) for 950 yen. I opted for a large serving of rice. I lit the grill, and after about 3 minutes, the yakiniku set arrived. It included kalbi, onion plate, rice, soup, and kimchi. It came with a negi salt sauce. I also used the soy sauce dip provided. The kalbi was decent for the price, and it was quite delicious. The rice was also very tasty, and I had a second helping for free. It was a very satisfying solo yakiniku lunch. Thank you for the meal.

I visited the restaurant for lunch in July 2022. It is located inside the Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station, which is very convenient as it is right next to the platform. They have a happy hour from 2pm to 6pm on weekdays. On the 29th, they have a half-price campaign for a plate of Wagyu beef. When I asked the staff for the most tender meat, they recommended the Wagyu kalbi, so I ordered that along with a side of rice and a glass of beer during happy hour. You order using a touch panel and the food is brought to you. Each person has their own roaster to cook the meat at their own pace, which is nice. It was raining heavily that day, so it was great to be able to eat inside the station without having to go outside. I highly recommend it. I will definitely come back on the 29th.

On the weekend, after work, I came to "Yakiniku Like Tsuruhashi Station" located inside Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station. It's located before the JR Loop Line outer loop connecting ticket gate, so you can't eat here without entering Kintetsu. Although it's night, I arrived early at the restaurant. The interior was almost full of single seats, but as I was alone, I was guided to a 4-person table. I ordered the Mega Mori Set for 1700 yen (tax included), which includes Bara Kalbi, Pork Kalbi (supposedly Iberico), and Hormone totaling 450g. As it's a set, it comes with rice (free extra-large), soup, and kimchi. I also added the TKG (egg over rice) set for an extra 190 yen (tax included). The food was served in 2-3 minutes. There are two types of sauce, soy sauce (light, dark), and miso sauce, along with additional seasonings like grated garlic, lemon, and gochujang, allowing you to create your preferred sauce. The meat is decent considering the price. I ordered an extra large rice for 170 yen (tax included) as I needed more. I was full by the end. The total amount was 2060 yen (tax included). I don't think I'll come back often, but it's good when you want to get full at a low price. Thank you for the meal.

I enjoyed solo yakiniku for the first time at Yakiniku Like near Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station. The taste was as expected, but the convenience is not great due to the location.

I stopped by "Yakiniku Like Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station" on my way back to Nagoya from Tsuruhashi on the Kintetsu Limited Express because I had some time to spare. When I entered the restaurant, I was seated at a counter seat for one person. The staff explained how to order using a tablet. I ordered the standard "Bara Kalbi Set (200g of meat)" for ¥950 (tax included). The set was served promptly, and I was able to grill the meat on the grill in front of me. The meat tasted like beef, but it was thin and a bit difficult to arrange on the grill. However, considering the price, I can't complain too much. There were various sauces on the table for seasoning, so I could enjoy changing the flavor. The rice was a large serving and quite delicious. Overall rating: 3.5. I wasn't expecting high-quality meat, but the price of ¥950 for 200g of meat felt a bit high. I finished eating in about 15 minutes from entering the restaurant, so it's nice to be able to have a meal efficiently while waiting for the train. Thank you for the meal.

◆I have been to this place several times in Tokyo, it's a typical solo yakiniku restaurant. Personally, I think it's the best place to enjoy yakiniku alone at this price in this setting. ・Visit time: Had an early dinner before catching the express train, around 6:00 PM on a Saturday. ・Location: Right inside the station building. ・Service time: It took about 3 minutes for the food to be served. ・Ordered dishes: "Beef tongue & premium kalbi & harami set 200g with extra rice" Soup and kimchi were included. The beef tongue was thinly sliced and round, nothing special. The premium kalbi was juicy and just the right thickness, very good. The harami (skirt steak) was thick and had a rich flavor, my personal favorite. Also added some hormone (offal), which was surprisingly tasty with a good amount of oil. There are several types of sauces to enjoy. ・No bike rack available (this is a downside!) ・Entered the restaurant in cycling gear, but it's fine since I was alone. ・Not suitable for large groups.

Before going to Namba, I had some fast food yakiniku (grilled meat) at the station. I had 200g of kalbi with kimchi, soup, and rice for only 950 yen (with free extra rice). It's cheap and if you're not too picky about the quality of the meat or the cooking method (they use gas), this place is good. It seemed popular, maybe because it's in the station, and there were a lot of repeat customers. I give it 5 stars. I left feeling full. Thank you very much.

This was my first visit. I had seen this place on TV many times and always wanted to try it. I ordered the most popular dish, which was 100g of beef tongue and beef short rib, but at first I was surprised by the amount - is this all? As a woman, I could just about say it was enough, but for men it would be too little. On a separate menu, you can get extra rice and kimchi, but if a man orders, I would recommend getting 200g or more, or the mega serving. The meat itself was tender and you could choose from various sauces, so the taste never got boring and I enjoyed it. The beef tongue wasn't that tasty, given the price, but the short rib and tripe were delicious.
