Last time, the night in Kushiro was not satisfying, so this time I tried a different genre. 2✕9＝18NIKU18, right? Choosing this restaurant was a gamble. Google Maps led me on a roundabout way to get there (laughs). Upon entering, I was struck by the somewhat high ceiling and the low black sofas lined up, creating a somewhat eerie atmosphere. We were asked to sanitize our hands and have our temperature checked before being seated at a sofa near the entrance. I opted for the 90-minute all-you-can-drink option for 1,680 yen. The food was not included, and looking at the menu, I found the food to be quite expensive. So, I decided to change my plan to all-you-can-eat and drink, which turned out to be around 4,400 yen. I decided to eat to my heart's content. ・ Camembert cheese fry, surprisingly delicious. ・ Zantare, the sauce was tasty. ・ Grilled beef rib steak ・ Grilled beef harami steak, served together, the tough edge turned out to be surprisingly good. ・ Grilled squid, average. ・ Shrimp ajillo, turned out to be shrimp ajillo, sizzling and tasty, with a good flavor. ・ Grilled beef heart, grilled to your liking, delicious meat. ・ Meat cheese potato, rich cheese and potatoes were a good combination. ・ Chicken breast meat ball, wrapped in something strange but inside was chicken breast meat, with a mild taste. ・ Several meat sushi, simple yet delicious. Asahi Super Dry Extra Gold beer x2, with fine bubbles and a delicious taste. Lemon highball, white wine, pineapple highball, orange highball, tried all the marinated drinks, but the taste was uneven, getting stronger as you go down the list (laughs). Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and the level of the food was higher than expected, leaving a good impression on my companion as well. Thank you for the meal.

First visit on March 27, 2020. A dining bar with a wide variety of meat dishes recommended by colleagues. Wanted to have drinks and food while chatting with colleagues. The small counter was the only available seating, so it was good that we made a reservation. Colleagues wanted to eat steak! They also wanted to try various dishes like tataki, yukhoe, and seared dishes. We ordered a variety of dishes. Looking at the photos, it seems like we ordered a lot of raw meat dishes (laughs). It's something we don't often eat at home, so it was a treat. The dish we liked the most was the beef heart with lots of green onions. The yukhoe after a long time was also delicious. The service was friendly, and the manager was funny. We had plenty to drink, enjoyed dessert, and had a satisfying time. A restaurant we would like to visit again. Thank you for the delicious meat festival! (´∇｀)

After Mikasa, we went to the second restaurant. As expected during Golden Week, all the places we had in mind were fully booked. So, we ended up here where we saw some empty seats outside. It's one of those trendy meat bars. We started with a big gulp drink, about double the size of a regular glass, and cheers. For meat, we ordered a 230-gram black wagyu sirloin steak. We also tried the limited-time minced wasabi horse sashimi yukhoe. The steak was tender with a good amount of lean meat. The horse sashimi wasn't frozen, and it paired well with the sauce made from beaten egg yolk and minced wasabi. It was much tastier than I expected.

Meat lovers will be thrilled with this restaurant. As the name suggests, there is a wide variety of meat dishes to choose from, making it hard to decide. It's rare to find places that serve raw meat nowadays, so it was a treat to enjoy it here. However, there is room for improvement in terms of service. There were instances of forgotten orders, mistakes in orders, and lack of friendliness, which was disappointing.

This is my first time visiting this restaurant. Surprisingly, everything I tried was delicious. However, I had the impression that it was cheap, but it doesn't seem that cheap. I wonder how often I go to cheap restaurants... My Engel coefficient seems to be on the lower side (;´∀｀) It's a shame that there are no cocktails included in the all-you-can-drink option, and sometimes the drinks take a while to arrive, but I think it's just part of the experience and can't be helped.

I happened to pass by this restaurant and decided to go in. The taste was good and the cost performance was great.

I suddenly felt like eating meat and visited the restaurant!! It was neither good nor bad. The shrimp with spices was delicious.

The company drinking party felt like a normal restaurant.

Anyway, it was a course where you can enjoy meat. There were many options for all-you-can-drink menu, so I was very satisfied.

It was delicious, the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, it was great.

At a workplace drinking party, we went to NIKU18. I've heard the name of the restaurant before, but it seems quite meaty from the name. The interior of the restaurant is like a casual bar. I don't usually go to this kind of place, so I feel a bit awkward. The main feature is the red lanterns. Today, I will be drinking alcohol heavily. I glance at the drink menu, but I already know I will order whiskey, so I'm just looking. The clock here is really hard to read. A salad arrives. Hey, where's the meat? A young person complains while eating lots of leaves. For older people like me, this amount of salad is just right. Edamame and french fries. I shouldn't have eaten these, I always end up getting full before the main dish arrives. These fries were really delicious! I forgot what this was. It had a ponzu-like taste! Cut steak. The young person is very happy. It's bite-sized, so they finish it quickly. They ate so much that I thought they should have ordered an extra piece of meat. I can't remember what this was, some kind of teriyaki. I prefer it without dipping in egg yolk. Meat with sweet chili sauce. It had a proper name, but I forgot. I think the cheese was unnecessary. The chili sauce alone was delicious enough. The cheese was too hard. It would have been better if it was melted. Sherbet after the meal. There was also a meat hot pot, and the noodles that go in it were incredibly delicious. I couldn't help but pay extra to have another serving of noodles. I wonder where these noodles are from. They were so tasty...!

It's Kushiro, and I'm alone. It's rare for me to be alone in Kushiro at night. I was planning to visit about three bars, but I ended up at this fifth one today. What? You were planning on three? While looking for the fourth bar, I happened to pass by this place and thought I would end my night here. I was planning to stop by on my way back, but I'm really bad with directions so I couldn't easily find it. Even though I'm not that drunk, why can't I find it? It's a mystery even to myself. Well, I'm truly directionally challenged. It was just a coincidence that I found it. It was so far from the previous bar. Did I walk that much? Well, good job finding it. But maybe it would have been better if you couldn't find it? When I said "alone," they led me to the counter. Of course, that makes sense. "NIKU18"...it took me a while to get it. Anyway, when I said "red wine," they responded with "all-you-can-drink!" Wait, did I order that? I have no memory of ordering that. When I said "I didn't order it!" they tried to explain it to me, but it wasn't really a blame or an excuse. What was the point of the conversation? It was such a strange feeling. I ordered the "Grilled Beef Harami Steak for 880 yen," and when it arrived, I thought, "Is this 880 yen? Isn't it cheap?" From this point on, I don't have any notes, but considering the price, it was delicious. Not cheap when you think about the quality of the meat, but as a meat lover, as long as it's not bad, I'll enjoy it. In the end, I was satisfied and left the restaurant. I've had experiences in Sapporo where I, as a middle-aged man, entered a similar restaurant alone and was upset by the attitude of the staff, but this restaurant was friendly even to middle-aged men and provided good service.

A group of 8 coworkers visited the restaurant. We enjoyed a variety of meat-centered dishes and had a great time. The drinks were affordable, so we opted not to go for the all-you-can-drink option and instead ordered a lot of different meat dishes. Surprisingly, the bill was cheaper than we expected. The barrel-aged sparkling wine, Paul Star, was delicious, even though it wasn't on the menu, they accommodated our request for it. From high-quality tender meat to more affordable options, meat lovers will be very satisfied with the wide selection of meat dishes available.

It was my first time using this restaurant for a company year-end party. We chose the 4000 yen course with all-you-can-drink. In short, it was more suitable for young men. There were 6 men and myself, making the male ratio quite high. We couldn't finish all the food and ended up taking some home because there was a lot. The hot pot was curry hot pot, which was quite delicious, but the beef tongue fried rice was not so great in terms of taste. The other dishes were average, neither good nor bad. The restaurant's name is NIKU18, so there were many meat dishes served. As someone in their 40s, it was a bit tough for me. Personally, I couldn't bring myself to use the chopsticks here and ended up asking for disposable chopsticks. The material of the chopsticks was not to my liking, and they were also bent. In the chopstick container, there was also a fork, but it was dirty and had something hardened and stuck to it, which killed my appetite. I drank a lot of beer from the large beer mugs, so I'll let it slide.

When it comes to Kushiro, there are not many restaurants that focus on meat dishes, as Robatayaki is the most popular. However, LINE COMPANY, which operates Italian and izakaya restaurants in Kushiro, opened a much-awaited meat bar last year called "An." We used it for a workplace drinking party and opted for the course with all-you-can-drink (4,000 yen). The course included dishes such as grilled chicken tenderloin, salad, potato fries, bone-in fried chicken thigh, sliced beef harami steak, pork frankfurter, cabbage roll consomme hot pot, wagyu garlic rice, and yuzu sorbet. The table was surrounded by a pot filled with thick sausages and a large amount of cabbage rolls. The dishes kept coming one after another, and we had to eat continuously or combine them on one plate to make space on the table. The portions were generous, and we were sure to leave the place full. This time, due to the course, there was only one beef charcoal-grilled dish, and we fell for the simple traps like fried potatoes and chicken. When the harami steak was served, we were surprised... Next time, we vow to indulge in charcoal-grilled steak with wine in hand (revenge).

I went to a workplace party! Since there were mostly young people (I was the oldest), we were looking for a place where they could eat and drink heartily. We decided to make a reservation at "Natsu Utage" and went there. The food served was just what we were looking for in terms of quantity! Even though I'm not a big fan of meat, I was able to eat it without any problems! I'm sure the young people were satisfied! However, the low rating in the "drinks" category is because I only drank beer the whole time and didn't try anything else... If I had ordered something different, my rating might have been different. Meat and beer, the best combination!! If you want to have a hearty meal, definitely give it a try!!

This is a rare meat bar in Kushiro! It seems to be related to Chigusa and Itari, and I found the drinks to be cheap! It was fun to drink from the large jug called "gubidrink." The food is mainly meat dishes like steak, so it can be a bit pricey if you eat a lot, but I think it's around 4000 yen. I'm not a fan of rare steak, so I enjoyed the pork and chicken dishes instead. There are various options, which is nice! There are also plans for all-you-can-drink, and the menu is detailed on the restaurant's website. I highly recommend it!

I had been curious about this restaurant for a while, it's like a steakhouse-style izakaya. I heard that in the city, there are more izakayas where you can eat hearty meals like this, but I was skeptical if it could work in a rural area like this. The location is honestly not great, my friend who came with me even said, "I don't remember ever passing through this street." The place looks a bit worn out, but it's not too cold, not too noisy, and has a nice atmosphere. The service is more on the wild side, but it matches the vibe of the place (lol). The prices are not cheap, but overall, I'd say it's "okay." The steak is grilled over charcoal, and it's cooked just right, cut into bite-sized pieces so you can eat it with chopsticks. I was looking for that feeling of digging into a thick steak, so I'm very satisfied at this price. I noticed the side menu item "Shiretoko Chicken Liver Paste" and ordered it. I asked if they had soda crackers or bread, and they said you have to order the baguette separately. It feels a bit like they're nickel-and-diming, but eating it with the baguette is delicious! Surprisingly delicious! They say it's homemade, not store-bought, and I wonder if people actually order this? It's a must-try dish. We ended up spending over 7,000 yen for two people, but considering the quality of the food, it's worth it. There were two men next to us eating steak with white rice, and in the back, there was a group of women sipping wine and nibbling on food, so it's quite a casual atmosphere. I think it would be great to use this place when getting together with friends next time.

The prices here are good and the food is really delicious! The meat is so tender, it just melts in your mouth (laughs). This is a great restaurant to go on a date!
