At "Live Yakiniku Tengu," just a five-minute walk from Kyobashi Station, there is a large Tengu decoration in front of the restaurant. After ordering, the staff cut the meat slice by slice in front of you. I was seated at the counter, so I enjoyed watching them cut the large chunks of meat, which added to the live experience! The portion size is about 1.5 times that of an average yakiniku restaurant, and indeed, everything was generous! Starting with the salt tongue, I was served eight thick slices. They say they use carefully selected fresh beef, and it was incredibly delicious. The quality of the meat is top-notch, and at ¥1800 per plate, it offers excellent cost performance. Here’s what I ordered: - Drinks: Makgeolli, Oolong tea - Salt tongue ¥1800 - Premium kalbi ¥1800 - Sirloin ¥1800 - Premium harami ¥1800 - Kimchi platter ¥600 - Rice ¥300 For dessert, I had warm corn tea and hojicha ice cream, which you could choose to enjoy with a monaka featuring a cute Tengu illustration! I considered ordering the "Tengu Mountain" for ¥4000, which is limited to five servings a day, but the staff advised that it's quite a hefty portion, so I passed this time. If you're looking to eat a lot, it seems like a great deal! They recommended cooking tips for the yakiniku, and everything was delicious. Each piece was tender and flavorful, bursting with juices as I bit into them. You could choose between wasabi soy sauce or sauce for seasoning, and wasabi pairs perfectly with tasty meat! Following the staff's suggestion, I quickly grilled the sirloin and had it with salt ponzu and grated daikon. The sirloin that day was from the chuck, and the strong flavor of the chuck combined with the refreshing salt ponzu was delightful. I was thoroughly satisfied with every dish. The staff was friendly and welcoming, making for a comfortable dining atmosphere. I would recommend this yakiniku restaurant to my friends. Upon leaving, I was given a voucher for ¥1000 to use on my next visit!

A sushi restaurant vibe! Live yakiniku is the best! The experience of having raw meat cut right in front of you after ordering creates an unbeatable atmosphere at this yakiniku place, @Kyobashi Live Yakiniku Tengu. It’s like a high-end sushi restaurant or an unpretentious Chinese eatery. You can see everything from the counter... so fun! Of course, it’s delicious! By the way, the name “Tengu” has a mysterious ring to it. When I asked why, I was told that it means you can become a “tengu” after seeing the expressions of those who came with you... Maybe it’s a typical exaggeration of people from Kansai? But honestly, I really did feel like I turned into a tengu! Surprisingly, the restaurant is open from 5 PM to 5 AM... which means you can be a tengu for dinner, after-party, or even late-night snacks! Oh, and you can be a tengu in the early morning too. No matter when you come, you can indulge in live yakiniku and enjoy the following menu items: - Yamamoto Kimchi: 500 yen - Bean Sprout Namul: 300 yen - Yukhoe: 1400 yen The tengu time begins with some fresh draft beer and the amazing, thick yukhoe that puts me in tengu mode right away. Then, the ordered hanasaki-tan comes on a tengu plate: - Hanasaki-tan: 1000 yen, served with tengu salt (a homemade sweet chili powder). This large slice of tongue is about 1.5 times the size you typically get elsewhere. The name comes from how the meat looks like a flower when grilled, and it’s delicious even without any dipping sauce. The recommended pairing is with tengu salt, harmonizing the flavors of miso and chili. Next is the top harami: - Jō Harami: 1800 yen. The thickness is irresistible, and the deliciousness makes you feel like a tengu! Then there's Kyubesen: - Kyubesen: 300 yen, which is horumon (offal) with coleslaw made from cabbage. Also, Tetsu: - Tetsu: 1000 yen, rich and flavorful without being greasy. It makes you smile naturally! There are plenty of fun ways to enjoy live yakiniku, too. They serve beautiful and strong sake from Tosa, which can only be ordered by handsome people... I managed to get a special order! To wrap up, I had a spicy kuppa: - Uma-spicy Kuppa: 700 yen, which the chef made extra spicy for me since we had become friendly. Perfect for spicy lovers! With a little perspiration and a lot of fun, I concluded my fantastic tengu time at this wonderful yakiniku restaurant!

At Tengu, all the meat portions are over 1.5 times the size of typical yakiniku restaurants. They cut the meat right in front of you, which adds to the live experience and ensures the meat is fresh, a delightful touch. This time, we ordered the following: Hanatakakomi (salted tongue and hanazaka tongue), harami, ichibo, kainomi, lamb shin, hiuchi, yam kimchi, buttered eringi mushrooms, wakatama soup, rice, and dipping sauce for the barbecue rice. The Hanatakakomi is a platter of salted tongue and hanazaka tongue, and the presentation in a tengu-shaped dish is lovely! The salted tongue is thick and satisfying, bursting with juiciness as soon as it enters your mouth. The hanazaka tongue is thick as well but tender and easy to chew. It comes with a miso sauce that is rich and delicious on its own. Dipping it in the restaurant’s recommended Tengu salt, which has a hint of sweetness from chili pepper, offers a different and delightful flavor! We received a mixed platter of harami, ichibo, kainomi, and lamb shin. Each piece is thick and truly satisfying! They guide you on the best ways to enjoy them with wasabi, sweet Kyushu soy sauce, dipping sauce, or ponzu, providing reassurance. They also taught us how to grill the meat to perfection, emphasizing its importance. The ichibo was particularly impressive! It was so tender and juicy that it melted in my mouth. The yam kimchi comes in large, satisfying chunks, making it perfect as a snack with drinks or a side dish. The buttered eringi mushrooms are served hot with sauce and butter. Dipping the well-grilled eringi into butter is irresistible! Before we knew it, we finished everything. When we asked for a recommendation for a meat that goes well with ponzu or wasabi, they served us hiuchi. The marbling in the hiuchi was beautiful and incredibly delicious, bursting with sweetness. Dipping it in egg and putting it over rice was a luxurious delight! We also used the leftover egg to make egg over rice, enjoying it with some wakatama soup. The portions were more than enough to share between two people. For dessert, we had ice cream and corn tea. We could choose whether the ice cream would be in a wafer or not! Every time I visit Tengu, I’m impressed by their wonderful service. They even see you off at the door, which is a nice touch. The delicious meat and the kind staff always make me want to return. Thank you for the great meal!

You can enjoy delicious meat at this restaurant with portions that are more than 1.5 times what you'd typically get at a regular BBQ place, all at great value!

The staff is really attentive, and you can enjoy tasty meat at a great price, which is fantastic! Thank you for the meal! ✨😚

In the shopping street on the north side of Kyobashi, there are quite a few yakiniku restaurants, making it a competitive area for grilled meat! I noticed this place opened on April 29, 2024. No wonder I didn't remember it while passing by this shopping street multiple times last year! The first floor has a counter, and there seem to be additional seats on the second floor or further inside. - Draft beer: 550 yen - Assorted red meat platter: 3,960 yen (includes ribeye, lean beef, short rib, and skirt steak) They cut the meat right in front of you after you order, so it’s super fresh! The portions here are about 1.5 times bigger than other restaurants, so it’s quite filling. The ribeye has a nice fatty richness but is refreshingly light without an aftertaste, making it delicious. I usually avoid ribeye at my age, but this one is really good! The lean beef, true to its name, has little fat and lets you enjoy the natural flavor of the meat. The short rib is juicy with a sweet fatty richness—definitely another winner! The skirt steak has a reliable flavor with perfect thickness, chewiness, juiciness, and umami balance. Plus, the staff was friendly and served us with smiles, which makes the same meal feel more rewarding! I also received a coupon to use for next time, so I'll definitely be back! Thank you for the meal! *\(^o^)/*

Eating yukke is amazing! They really focus on the cut of the meat, and the staff was kind and attentive. You could tell the staff really loves meat by the way they explained it. They also taught me how to grill it and are particular about the sauces that go well with the meat. It was truly delicious!

The portion size is impressive, with each plate containing about 1.5 times more meat than usual yakiniku restaurants! The tongue, sirloin, kalbi, and harami are cut thick, providing a satisfying chew! The Nasal High盛 is a combination of salt tongue and Hanagami tongue. The Hanagami tongue is from the tip and is cut after grilling, delivering a rich flavor and substantial bite! The sauce has a strong flavor, making it a great accompaniment to the rice. The rice appears to be made from "Ginga no Shizuku," which has a balanced sweetness and stickiness, pairing well with various meats. To conclude the meal, we were served hojicha ice cream sandwiched and warm corn tea as a complimentary treat. Thank you for the meal!

The marbling is exquisite, and the presentation and taste are of a quality you wouldn't expect at this price! - **Hanazaki Tongue (1100 yen)**: The first thing that caught my eye was the humorous presentation on a plate shaped like a tengu (a mythical creature), with the tongue arranged on the nose. Instead of the classic salt flavor, it’s served with a miso flavor. When paired with the accompanying tengu salt, it becomes incredibly delicious! Although it looks bright red and spicy, it’s not spicy at all and pairs perfectly with the meat! ~Other items we ordered~ - Yukke (1540 yen) - Sanchu (330 yen) ______________________________________ **Restaurant Details** Address: 5-7-7 Higashihonmachi, Miyakojima-ku, Osaka, Japan Reservations & Inquiries: 050-5593-5464 Operating Hours: - **Monday - Saturday, Day before holidays, Day after holidays**: 17:00 - 05:00 (Last Order: 04:00) - **Sunday & Holidays**: 17:00 - 00:00 (Last Order: 23:00) Estimated Budget: 4000 yen and up

Osaka is also famous for its yakiniku, and it’s great for enjoying good meat at reasonable prices. The seasoning and sauces are delicious, which adds to its appeal. During my trip to Osaka, I decided to check out this spot! They cut the meat fresh after receiving an order, and offer hand-prepared fresh ingredients every day! Plus, they serve about 1.5 times the volume of a typical yakiniku restaurant, which is impressive!

You can really taste the creativity in the way it's prepared—just the kind of twist you’d expect in Osaka! ■ Red Meat Platter Featuring a beautiful selection of lean cuts: upper harami, marushin, hiuchi (tomo-sankaku), and momo sashi. At this quality and price, isn’t it a steal?! Every cut has fantastic marbling and melts in your mouth. Pairing it with wasabi and a mild sweet Kyushu soy sauce or yakiniku sauce is absolute bliss. My personal favorite was the tomo-sankaku because it has a perfect balance of fat and lean meat! ■ Yukhoe The quality of this yukhoe for the price is unbelievable! The meat has a lovely sweetness, and the seasoning is just right. Mixing it with the egg yolk and onion had me shouting, "Osaka is the best!" (laughs). ■ Chita Highball ■ Sanuki Kuraudi The drinks are thankfully priced under 1000 yen! I was so happy to find my favorite drink from Kagawa, Sanuki Kuraudi! ----------Overall---------- Wow, I truly experienced the strength of Osaka's yakiniku!

Today, after a drinking party with colleagues, I was taken to a highly recommended yakiniku (grilled meat) restaurant by a junior colleague. The meat is cut right in front of you after you place your order, which is why it's called a "live" experience. We went up to a table on the second floor and started with draft beer, along with salt-grilled tongue and fresh beef. For our second order, we chose premium loin and premium harami, with options for sauce or wasabi soy sauce. We also ordered "Tetsu," which we could select as either sauce or salt. To top it all off, we had the restaurant's signature “Tengu Meat Mountain,” which comes with a mix of various cuts of meat. The quality of the meat is outstanding! It's naturally tender, and the melting fat is sweet. The cuts are just right; thick enough to really enjoy the feeling of eating meat. For dessert, we had hojicha (roasted green tea) ice cream and corn tea. Each serving is reportedly over 1.5 times larger than typical restaurants, so sharing among several people is the best way to go. Overall, it was a fantastic way to savor the meat!

I visited "Live Yakiniku Tengu" in Kyobashi, Osaka! This place offers incredible value and delicious grilled meat. The highlight was watching them cut the meat right in front of me after I placed my order—such an impressive sight! The portions are also very generous, which is fantastic! The tongue was incredibly flavorful, and the texture was tender and juicy, packed with deliciousness. The popular "tsurami" (beef cheek) was absolutely exquisite, so I highly recommend trying it! Enjoying it rare was delightful, and it left me feeling proud to have discovered such a great place. If you're looking for amazing value and want to indulge in quality meat, you should definitely check out Live Yakiniku Tengu!

At Tengu Kyobashi, located in the Shin-Kyobashi shopping street in Osaka, there are three branches of this live BBQ restaurant. They cut the meat right in front of you, serving hearty portions of delicious yakiniku. The lean meat option is 1980 yen and is as tender as a steak, featuring finely marbled Wagyu beef that is best enjoyed medium-rare with salt. It’s incredibly flavorful and refreshing, so tasty that you could eat numerous slices. The Tongue Tasting Platter, also 1980 yen, includes a combination of salt tongue and mid-cuts tongue. These thick slices are satisfying and easy to eat due to the perfect cuts. It tastes even better with a mild red seasoning sauce on the side. The mid-cuts tongue has a delightful chewiness, making the salt tongue just as enjoyable on its own. The Upper Flank also costs 1980 yen and is fluffy and tender, best enjoyed with a rich sauce. When grilling marinated meat, it’s essential to turn it carefully to avoid burning. While it’s good with salt, the sauce really brings out the unique flavor of the meat with its light seasoning, making it delightful. Even if you're not eating as much meat these days, you’ll still crave the tongue and flank. They also offer Yukke for 1540 yen and thick Tsurami for 1540 yen. Every meat option is refined, delicious, and substantial, with 8 slices per serving, which is about 1.5 times what you’d get at other places—it actually feels more like double!

The grilling is done on a gas roaster, and the seating is quite spacious, mostly at the counter with additional seating on the second floor. Many diners enjoy solo BBQ, as they cut the meat right in front of you, leaving it tender and flavorful. To top it all off, they serve a cute and tasty ice cream monaka as a complimentary service. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I visited a yakiniku restaurant in Kyobashi, Osaka. **Live Yakiniku Tengu Kyobashi** is located in the "Shinkyobashi Shopping Street" in Kyobashi, Osaka. One of its standout features is the live cooking experience, where the staff cuts the meat right in front of customers seated at the counter after an order is placed. This allows you to enjoy fresh, cut-to-order meat. While most yakiniku places serve about 80g per portion, Tengu offers around 150g or more, making for a generous serving size. As you enter the restaurant, you'll find counter seats where staff are busy cutting the ordered meats. There are also tables in the back for groups. We started with a toast, and this time I visited with a friend who often joins me on my food adventures. We ordered a **kimchi platter** with three types of kimchi: kakuteki (radish), cucumber, and napa cabbage. The cucumber was cut into large pieces, and the kimchi sauce had a slightly sweet flavor, making it very easy to eat. Next, we fired up the roaster and began our yakiniku experience. We had three types of dipping sauces: soy sauce, lemon, and a special sauce. **Salted Tongue** was our first dish, featuring eight pieces of beautifully marbled tongue. It was served with wasabi. The tongue had decorative cuts that allowed it to open up beautifully when grilled. We enjoyed it simply seasoned with salt at first, and it was incredibly tender and rich in flavor. We also tried it with lemon for a refreshing taste, and it was delicious with wasabi too. With eight pieces, we had plenty of ways to enjoy it. Next, we had **Premium Kalbi**, again eight pieces. The recommended way to enjoy this cut is with their special sauce. As it grilled, the sound of the sauce and fat sizzling was super appetizing! The meat was very tender, and the richness of the fat was delightful. I couldn’t resist ordering some rice to pair with it, as kalbi and white rice are a perfect match. The **Red Meat** dish of the day was from the "Togurashi" cut. This beautiful cut of red meat was enjoyed with salt ponzu, grated daikon, and wasabi soy sauce. The Togurashi was tender and very easy to chew. With each bite, the rich flavor burst forth, and it paired nicely with the refreshing salt ponzu. We also had **Premium Harami**, cut into thick pieces with a lovely grilling color. The recommended way to eat it was with wasabi soy sauce. It had just the right amount of chewiness, and, once again, the flavor was incredible, making it perfect to accompany our rice. After we finished eating, we were pleasantly surprised with complimentary corn tea and a small ice cream as a service. We could choose between a regular ice cream type and a monaka-sandwiched type. The monaka featured the Tengu design and looked adorable. I enjoyed a small monaka ice cream filled with hojicha (roasted green tea) ice cream while sipping my corn tea, savoring the after-meal bliss. With the generous serving sizes, we left very satisfied, having enjoyed everything for about 5,000 yen each. The freshly cut meat made it extremely delicious. It was not only a visual delight but also a flavorful experience at live yakiniku.

I visited Tengu, located in Kyobashi! It was nice to receive a refreshing cold towel. It turned out to be their anniversary festival! I enjoyed some solo yakiniku at the counter. The menu stated that the portions are 1.5 times the regular size, but since I was dining alone, they kindly offered half-size options, which was really helpful. Cheers with a kabosu sour! - Raw beef (senmai) 770 yen - Kakuteki (radish kimchi) 330 yen - Assorted tongue platter (salted tongue and chu-uro 1980 yen) The kakuteki had a gentle acidity that I loved, leaving a refreshing aftertaste! For the raw beef, I chose the senmai! It was delicious with dipping sauce! The yakiniku is cut fresh after you order, which shows their commitment to quality. Sitting at the counter where I could see them cutting the meat felt like a special treat! The tongue on the left is salted, and the right is chu-uro! It comes with wasabi and Tengu salt. The staff mentioned that the Tengu salt, even though it looks red, isn't spicy at all. I enjoyed the salted tongue with wasabi and lemon! With the powerful roaster, it was quickly grilled, resulting in a tender and delightful texture! The chu-uro had a strong flavor and a satisfying chewiness, which I really liked. And true to what the staff said, the Tengu salt was not spicy at all, so I could use a generous amount! - Tsunami (1,540 yen) - Cold noodles (660 yen) as a second order! For the famous tsunami, they recommended using salt, so I followed their advice. This also came with Tengu salt. The unique muscle texture and flavor of the tsunami were a dream for anyone who loves chewy meat! I rounded off the meal with cold noodles, served with vinegar. It also came with kimchi for a refreshing finish. I cleaned my plate and cup completely! Before leaving, I received a new hot towel along with warm corn tea and a choice of hojicha ice cream or sweet monaka. The ice cream was quite delicious! I even got a mint for a refreshing breath on my way out. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

In front of me, the skilled grillers at Tengu serve live-cut meat, which has been well-reviewed. There are about three locations, and I decided to visit the Kyobashi branch. The restaurant is located a little down the shopping street, featuring a counter and table seating on the first floor, with more table seating on the second floor. While you can’t get the live-cut experience at the table seats, they were accommodating on this day, allowing me to enjoy the salt beef tongue the way I preferred. Here’s what I enjoyed: - Yam Potato Kimchi - Salt Beef Tongue - Coleslaw Salad - Tengu's Meat Mountain The Kimchi was perfectly marinated and had a great flavor! The coleslaw salad was nicely seasoned and crunchy, a fun treat. Then came the salt beef tongue! The chef cut 1.5 portions for me, providing generous volume and beautifully marbled cuts. I tried both thick and thin slices; there was a slight hint of gamey flavor, but the rich, tender taste outweighed any minor aftertaste. The Tengu's Meat Mountain featured a whopping 300 grams of assorted red meat. The assortment was seasoned with salt, while the rest was served with a sauce that paired excellently with the meat. The rice was absolutely perfect alongside! To top it all off, I received hojicha ice cream as a complimentary dessert. Overall, this place scores high on all fronts!

I visited "Live Yakiniku Tengu Kyobashi" located in the New Kyobashi shopping street, just a 3-minute walk from Kyobashi Station, accessible via the JR Osaka Loop Line, Gakkentoshi Line, Tōzai Line, and Osaka Metro Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi Line.

The interior is very clean, featuring a counter seating area at the entrance and two 4-person tables in the back, with additional table seating on the second floor, totaling 55 seats—it's quite spacious and has a welcoming atmosphere for solo diners. The highlight of this restaurant is the "live yakiniku" experience, where the meat is cut fresh only after an order is placed. You can see this process from the counter seats, which is sure to create some Instagram-worthy moments! Additionally, the portion sizes are generous, with each serving estimated to be about 1.5 times the usual amount. Today's menu items (all prices tax included) included: ★ "Tongue Comparison Platter (Salted Tongue & Chutoro Tongue)" (1980 yen) – A delightful combination of salted tongue and chutoro tongue, enjoyed with wasabi, lemon, and a special salt spice. The salted tongue (from the tongue's base) is tender with a marvelous, unique chewiness. The special salt spice, although visually appearing spicy, perfectly enhances the meat's flavor. ★ "Yukke" (1540 yen) – This dish was surprisingly substantial! The meat had an excellent amount of marbling and sweetness, beautifully balanced with a rich sauce. I thought, "Is this price for this volume really that low?" ★ The signature dish "Tengu's Meat Mountain" (4400 yen) – This featured bite-sized pieces of meat piled high. It looked even more voluminous than expected, filling me up completely. ★ "Grilled Meat Sauce Rice" (400 yen) – Rice topped with kimchi, green onions, seaweed, mayonnaise, and a grilled meat sauce. While it's delicious on its own, I recommend dipping in the grilled meat to enjoy it like bibimbap. The overall balance of flavors was excellent, and the rice, called "Galaxy Drops," had a lovely, transparent quality that made it very tasty. ★ "Chinese Cabbage Kimchi" (330 yen) – A must-have with grilled meat. It had a rather spicy aftertaste, perfect for cleansing the palate or refreshing your mood. ★ "Drinks" included: Medium draft beer (550 yen), Koni-oro lemon sour (550 yen), and oolong tea (330 yen). To finish, I enjoyed complimentary "roasted green tea ice cream" and "corn tea," rounding off a delightful dinner experience. The staff was incredibly attentive, providing a pleasant dining atmosphere—definitely a memorable visit. *Note: From September 8 to September 12, there’s a gratitude festival offering a combo of "Salted Tongue, Harami, and Lean Meat" originally priced at 1980 yen, now available for 1090 yen (tax included), making it a great opportunity to visit!* **Recommended Points:** - The "live yakiniku" experience where the meat is cut fresh is a must-see! - You can enjoy high-quality meat at extremely reasonable prices, particularly the "Salted Tongue" and "Yukke" are must-tries. - The wonderful service from the restaurant staff makes for an enjoyable yakiniku experience.

This place serves portions that are 1.5 times the normal size, so you'll definitely get a lot! They really pay attention to how the meat is cut, and it’s super delicious! Here’s what I ate: - Salted tongue: 1980 yen - Premium skirt steak (with wasabi soy sauce): 1980 yen - Yukhoe (raw beef): 1540 yen - Asparagus: 550 yen - Cold noodles: 660 yen - Draft beer: 550 yen The premium skirt steak is fantastic when eaten with the sweet soy sauce from Kyushu and some wasabi, so I definitely recommend trying it if you go! From the outside, the shop looks a bit small, but when you step inside, it's surprisingly spacious! Everything was delicious!
