It’s a popular restaurant, but when I visited, there was no one there. Was it because it was a weekday? The shop had a "Closed for Preparation" sign out front, and it didn’t seem like they were trying to draw in customers much. The first dish was heart (hatsu). The menu and the chalkboard didn't seem to match up very well. When I asked for recommendations, they quickly mentioned a few things, but I didn’t really understand. It felt like they weren’t too welcoming to newcomers. They grilled the food for us, and the grilling was nice. However, when a regular customer sat next to me, the staff gave them a lengthy explanation. They didn’t seem particularly friendly to the two male customers either. The restroom was accessible by opening a door to the adjacent building. The food was tasty, but I felt like something was missing.

I visited on a Friday night, and the restaurant was almost fully booked. Reservations are a must on weekends. Unusually for a yakiniku restaurant, we were served an appetizer, which was raw heart (hatsu). It was delicious. We started with the premium, thinly sliced beef tongue. The staff grilled it for us, and the tender raw tongue was incredible. The offal was also tasty, with no unpleasant odor at all. If you ask for recommendations, you can't go wrong. Everything was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

While grilling the meat, we talked a lot about how to cook it and the quality of the meat, making our meal very enjoyable. I could truly understand why you said it's amazing to be able to eat such high-quality meat at this price. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I visited a casual barbecue restaurant in Kanda with a friend. The signature dish, Seiji Mori, costs 1,780 yen and the beef tongue is of decent quality and delicious. However, the short rib at 980 yen per slice felt a bit overpriced. The stone-baked garlic rice for dessert was unnecessary. If I were to go again, I'd just like to enjoy the beef tongue.

Located just a 3-4 minute walk from Kanda, "Yakiniku Hormone Seiji" is a super popular grilled meat restaurant known for its supervision of authentic Japanese beef barbecue. The atmosphere inside is casual, with roasters at each table, embodying the vibe of neighborhood BBQ while maintaining a sense of cleanliness and energy. The staff provide attentive service, creating a comfortable environment. On this occasion, I was seated in a completely private room at the back. The dishes I ordered included à la carte options: sirloin maki, this town's yukhoe, salted beef tongue, this town's hormone, this town's kalbi, this town's harami, cold noodles, and this town's sour. **Highlight: Sirloin Maki** This luxurious dish features thick rolls made with sirloin, making a significant visual impact. The umami of the meat blends perfectly with the sweetness of the rice. As you take a bite, the fat from the sirloin melts in your mouth, providing an indulgent experience. Mixing it with an egg yolk elevates the flavor to another level. **This Town's Yukhoe** The yukhoe presents itself prominently in the frying pan and is quickly grilled on the roaster before eating. One bite reveals a melting texture and rich umami that expands across your palate. Combining it with an egg yolk enhances the creaminess, offering a luxurious flavor. **This Town's Hormone** Experience a plump and satisfying texture. The sweetness of the fat melds with the rich sauce, allowing umami to spread in your mouth. It's a dish that becomes addictive due to the unique texture of the hormone. **This Town's Harami** The deliciousness of the lean meat stands out in this dish. It has the right amount of fat, and the balance of meat flavor is delightful, becoming more enriched with every bite. It is juicy yet leaves a refreshing aftertaste. This is the perfect place for special occasions or when visiting with someone important. BBQ lovers must visit at least once and experience the exquisite flavors. The dishes are simple yet deeply flavorful, providing a satisfying time for both heart and body. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

The restaurant is located about a 5-minute walk from Kanda Station. The interior is overall bright, but the tables are a bit narrow. They specialize in offal, and the seasoning is robust, making the dishes quite delicious.

I had a great time at "Yakiniku Hormone Seiji" in Kanda, spending about 5,000 yen per person in total. One of the best things is that they grill the meat for you. The meat is fresh and thick cuts of tongue and yukhoe are really enjoyable. It's a shame they didn't have the liver I was looking forward to, but I'll definitely want to try it next time. I highly recommend everyone to check it out! #Gourmet #YamanoteLineGourmet #DeliciousFood #FoodSearchTeam #Yakiniku #Seiji #Kanda #KandaGourmet #KandaIzakaya #KandaYakiniku #Liver #Yukhoe #Kanda #Yakiniku #NatsuDinner #Hormone

I visited Seiji, a yakiniku and horumon restaurant in Kanda! We enjoyed not only horumon but also plenty of wagyu beef. With an all-you-can-drink option, I had a lot of lemon sours and left very satisfied! The seared wagyu sirloin yukhoe and the premium wagyu sirloin sushi were delicious! The restaurant was surprisingly clean for a horumon place, and the smoke wasn't too much of a bother. Thank you for the meal!

There are still so many places near my office that I don't know about. I found a place that accepts PayPay, and I couldn't resist trying their pure tofu lunch for just 800 yen—what a great deal! The restaurant has a stylish vibe with exposed concrete, giving it a cool atmosphere. Since it's based on a BBQ theme, the kimchi looked delicious as well. After a short wait for the pure tofu, it finally arrived—hot and ready. The flavor is more about a straightforward spiciness than richness.

Just a 5-minute walk from JR Kanda Station East Exit, the colorful "OPEN" neon sign and the white lanterns of "Seiji" grab your attention at Yakiniku Hormone Seiji. It seems that a highly popular yakiniku restaurant in Akasaka has supervised their menu, which guarantees exceptional quality and great cost-performance! Last year, they received impressive support on Makuake, highlighting their popularity and high potential. The interior allows smoking with heated tobacco at all seats, and there are private rooms that can accommodate up to six people, making it versatile for personal outings, business meetings, or parties! ☑️ Kurumiyama Kalbi【¥968】This dish, named "you can't go wrong with this," features high-quality ribeye with marbling that is quickly grilled and then dipped in a sauce with egg yolk. It's so tender that it easily cuts and the flavor of the rich fat just oozes out—truly, you can't go wrong with this! ☑️ Thick Cut Tongue Salt【¥2,398】This uses the tongue root, which is beautifully marbled, tender, and juicy. When you squeeze some lemon on this thick piece of tongue and take a big bite, happiness spreads in your mouth! ☑️ Special Liver【¥1,408】A super popular item that is available in limited quantities! I was lucky to find it on this day—fresh with a plump texture, moderate saltiness, and refreshing green onion flavor, it is simply the best. ☑️ Bone-in Kalbi【¥1,078】This was the "secret menu" for the day. The meat around the bone is rich in fat and has just the right chewiness. The more you chew, the more the fat oozes out. I enjoyed it so much that I left the bone clean! They have a wide variety of appetizers and side dishes, each of which was truly delicious. I was very satisfied with the friendly and approachable staff who skillfully grilled the meat while we chatted. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

Yakiniku Hormone Seiji is a reasonably priced and delicious yakiniku restaurant. This is definitely the place to be. Not only was the meat great, but the cabbage and kimchi were also tasty enough to enjoy on their own with drinks. The service was good as well, and I was happy when they cooked the meat for us when they had the time. The only downside was that the location of the restroom was a bit tricky to find. Thank you for the meal! - Budget around 7000 yen - About a 5-minute walk from Kanda Station.

The tongue was fresh and juicy, and the ribeye had beautiful marbling. #Kanda #Iwatomachi #Akihabara #Yakiniku #Namul #Ribeye #Premium Grilled Sushi #Thin Slices #Premium Beef Tongue #Pork Belly #Wagyu #Premium Short Rib #Loin #Skirt Steak #Kore Machi Rib #Wakatama Soup #Dry Zero #Non-Alcoholic

Great cost performance! I think the value is very good if you can enjoy this quality of meat at such a price! They also had fresh makgeolli, which is a big plus. It's a bit far from the station, but with this quality, it’s bound to become a popular spot. I'm definitely planning to visit again.

As of January 2024, this place has a low score on Tabelog, but it’s actually really good! #Kanda #Iwamotocho #Akihabara #Yakiniku #Kimchi #Cabbage #Wagyu Sirloin #Aburi Yukke #Top Sushi #Salted Tongue #Pork Belly #Shima Cho #Hatsu Moto #Giraala #Kalbi #Harami #Kore Machi Kalbi #Wagyu Chunk Grilling #Hormone #Ue Mino #Spicy Miso #Cold Noodles #Small Rice #All-you-can-drink #Jasmine Tea #Non-Alcoholic

This is a yakiniku (grilled meat) restaurant in Kanda, located about a 5-minute walk from Kanda Station, away from the bustling shopping area towards the East Exit. It opened in April 2023, so it’s a relatively new place. I passed by and thought, "Wait, was this place here before?" so I casually popped in for dinner. I visited around 6 PM on a Sunday and there was one other group ahead of me. The interior is clean, as you’d expect from a new restaurant, with a cozy neighborhood yakiniku vibe typical of Kanda. Here’s what I had: - **Addictive Kimchi (480 yen)**: It was delicious, seasoned just right! The addition of Korean seaweed was a nice touch. - **Seiji Special (White) (1680 yen)**: This came with gya-ra (beef throat), hachinosu (beef tripe), and mino (beef honeycomb tripe). It was a bit pricey for offal, but ordering this first fills you up quite nicely. - **Fresh Liver (1280 yen)**: Served with a generous helping of chopped green onions and sesame oil. The freshness and portion size were both excellent. - **Kore-Machi Kalbi (880 yen)**: - **Tender Roast (1680 yen)**: Known as the "drinkable roast" because it’s so tender, it’s easy to chew. The creative naming seems to suggest some trademark concerns. - **Bound Special Rice (380 yen)**: This was recommended as a must-have with the previous two dishes. It’s essentially rice with a layer of Korean seaweed in between, which made the rice delicious on its own—a definite hit! - **Heart (580 yen)**: The quality was standard for heart, but it was cut generously, so for this price and portion, it was quite satisfying. When it comes to yakiniku in Kanda, my personal top choices are always "Ore no Niku," "Yakiniku Great," or "Kanayama Shoten," with this place and "Wolf" coming in next. Overall, I had a great meal here! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

I visited using a Makuake ticket and chose the all-you-can-drink course. We started with kimchi and had some namul, but I forgot to take a photo. The course included a variety of dishes like seared yukhoe, meat sushi, tongue, beef tripe, and grilled sukiyaki; all of them were reliably delicious. The meat may have been thawed, but I didn't find any issues with its quality. For the final dish, we could choose between beef bone soup (kuytang) and spicy beef soup (yukgaejang); I shared half of my companion's yukgaejang, but the sweetness of it was a bit noticeable. Overall, it was tasty. The cost performance is good, although I wish the cabbage could be less salty, and it would be great if they could offer refills for the bean sprouts and cabbage. Since it's located in an office area, it's very quiet on weekends, and the staff were also very courteous. I would love to visit this restaurant again.

I visited "Yakiniku Hormone Seiji," located just a 3-minute walk from Kanda Station. I've finally started to feel settled in Tokyo, and I've decided to resume posting my thoughts! My impression: I had a really enjoyable time. It was funny to find out that the owner lives nearby, but we hit it off perfectly, making for a fantastic experience! Most importantly, for those who know, the cost-performance ratio is excellent. Considering the service, atmosphere, taste, and portion sizes, it's obvious that it's a great deal. There are too many articles from people who don’t fully appreciate the effort of the restaurant, and I hope to see more reviews from those who truly explore dining options. I don’t want to see this wonderful place shut down! As the first visitor for this special promotion, I'm grateful for the time I spent there. ### About Yakiniku Hormone Seiji 1. **Overview**: Yakiniku Hormone Seiji opened on April 18, 2023, with the owner's desire to share the nostalgic taste that he has loved since childhood. It's conveniently located just 3 minutes from Kanda Station, making it a friendly place where you can drop by easily and enjoy a fun atmosphere. The staff aims for a casual and engaging service, where some customers even come to chat with the owner, treating it like meeting a friend rather than just dining out. The staff takes care of grilling all the meat, except in private rooms where customers can grill themselves for more privacy. 2. **Menu Supervision by a Popular Akasaka Restaurant**: The restaurant features fresh hormone and carefully selected wagyu at incredibly reasonable prices. Highly recommended is the grandmother’s specialty: fresh hormone! The expertly prepared hormone is so tender and delicious that you’ll be hooked after just one bite! Additionally, there are dishes like A4 rank wagyu sirloin, known as "Kore Machi Karubi," and wagyu ribs, all enjoyed at an extraordinary price. 3. **Limited High-Cost Performance Course on MAKUAKE**: To spread the word about Seiji, they launched this project on MAKUAKE! After about three months since opening, they have received many customers from the local area, but recognition is still limited. The course being offered is an enhanced version of a regular course priced at 5,980 yen which is exclusive to MAKUAKE. ### Menu Highlights - **Seiji Moriawase**: A platter of fresh hormone featuring four different types, three pieces each. - **Kore Machi Karubi**: A whole piece of A4 rank wagyu sirloin. Cook it briefly and enjoy it with egg! - **Wagyu Block Grill**: For this course, wagyu will be grilled as a block right before your eyes by the staff, with cuts varying based on daily recommendations. ### Other Features Unlike typical casual yakiniku restaurants, which can be smoky, messy, and cramped, this establishment has been designed from scratch with the latest exhaust systems for a smoke-free and clean experience. It also boasts private rooms, making it suitable for business meetings, important events, or family outings. ### MAKUAKE Limited Course **Course Contents**: - Addictive kimchi - Delicious cabbage with sauce - Grilled wagyu sirloin yukhoe - Premium sushi with wagyu sirloin - Salted tongue - All-white meat platter (4 types) - All-red meat platter (3 types) - Kore Machi Karubi - Wagyu block grill - White meat (4 types) with miso or spicy sauce - Cold noodles or grandmother's tail soup, white or red - Rice (small, medium, or large) I ended up ordering two sets of this course and also purchased a special promotion as the appointed promotional ambassador which comes with a 50,000 yen course that includes a 100,000 yen meal voucher. As the first visitor, I even got to sign a pillar! Those who know me will definitely recognize it! I shared some extra meal vouchers with people I appreciate so they can enjoy as well. ### Restaurant Information **Name**: Yakiniku Hormone Seiji **Address**: 46 Konyacho, Chiyoda, Tokyo **Access**: 3 minutes walk from Kanda Station **Hours**: 12:00 - 14:00 (L.O 13:30), 17:00 - 23:00 (L.O 22:30) **Seating**: 7 table seats, 1 private room **Closed**: Irregular holidays (including New Year, GW, summer vacation, and SW).
