Old-fashioned yakiniku restaurant. It has a cozy atmosphere loved by locals. Run by a family, so the vibe is very welcoming. The lamb meat is delicious without any unpleasant smell, but it hasn't quite shed its B-grade gourmet image. On the other hand, it's perfect for everyday dining. Just be aware that there is no parking available.

I visited after playing golf. All the meats were tender and excellent. I will visit again.

On August 29, Heisei era, I had the opportunity to visit a friend in Kitahiroshima after a long time. I stayed at their place and on Sunday, we went to the founding anniversary event at Minamiebetsu Garrison. On Saturday night, we visited my friend's family for the second time. When we arrived at the restaurant at 8:30 pm for our reservation, all seats were full except for the one we reserved. We started with some beer, served in clean beer mugs. The fact that there were no bubbles on the inside of the mugs indicated that they were indeed clean. By presenting my Hokkaido Shinbun Bubun Club card, we received complimentary Genghis Khan (grilled mutton). We were first served with pickles, and on the table, there were various condiments like soy sauce-based sauce, salt and pepper, lemon juice, garlic, gochujang, and doubanjiang. We left the ordering of the grilled dishes to my friend's family, and we enjoyed the Family Set B which included beef tongue, raw miso hormone, premium kalbi, raw lamb, and raw salted hormone. We grilled the meat on a large shichirin charcoal grill. We also ordered additional items like kalbi, chicken skin, chicken thighs, miso hormone, shishito peppers, and squid. In addition to the grilled meat, there were plenty of seafood options available, and we chose squid that day. We also had horse sashimi from Kumamoto and pig's feet, which my friend particularly enjoys. We had a few mugs of beer, a bottle of shochu, and the high school daughter of my friend had two ginger ales and cold noodles. While there was no all-you-can-drink course, it felt like we were in a situation of all-you-can-eat and drink. The total bill for three adults and one high school student came to just over 13,000 yen. It was a truly happy moment.

This is a place in Shiraicho 1-chome, Kitahiroshima City, along Takadai Street, but for detailed location, as always, please check the map on Tabelog. I visited this yakiniku restaurant for the first time for a farewell party of a certain group, and this time I tried the 4000 yen course with "all-you-can-drink" at night. First, sauces like tare, salt and pepper, lemon juice with spicy miso, gochujang, grated garlic are served, followed by pickles and grilled vegetables. Let's start by making a sauce while enjoying the kimchi. The kimchi itself tastes like store-bought kimchi. Next is the drinks. We started with a toast of draft beer, which was surprisingly light and not very bitter, and other drinks included soft drinks, shochu, sake, highballs, and carbonated cocktails. Surprisingly, the "kachiwari wine" was sold out. Next, I will explain the grilled meat and horumon that are served one by one. 1: First, the kalbi was roughly cut and had little marbling, tasting like regular beef belly meat. 2: Next is the sagari, which tasted more like beef thigh meat than offal. 3: The raw lamb was just regular lamb meat, but I would have preferred to eat it with bell's ginger tare. 4: Next, we tried the kimchi-flavored horumon and salted horumon, both of which lacked the rawness and flavor of horumon. 5: The last plate only had tongue and liver, but the tongue was clearly frozen and lacked flavor. 6: The liver was raw, but slightly cut small, lacking the feeling of eating heartily. Finally, although I did not eat it, rice balls were served last, and they were quite large. This time, I chose the 4000 yen all-you-can-drink course, but I felt that saving 1000 yen significantly affected the quality of the meat.

On July 23, 2016, I stayed at a friend's house in Kitahiroshima City the day before the event to be held on Sunday. We visited a yakiniku restaurant that day. My friend had made a reservation for us, and we arrived a little before 8:00 pm. The restaurant had table seating as well as sunken kotatsu seating, which allowed us to enjoy our yakiniku leisurely. The sunken seating area also had a large TV. We started off with beer, served in clean glasses with creamy foam. The set menu was recommended, and we chose the D set, which included hormone with salt and miso, tongue, and kalbi. There were three of us, and the portions were quite generous. The large charcoal grill was brought to our table, and we were also served a variety of pickled vegetables as a complimentary side dish. The sauce options included soy sauce, garlic, gochujang, doubanjiang, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. The meat portions were large, and the tongue was sliced thick. We also received a complimentary serving of lettuce wraps. We had a couple of beers in mugs and then switched to a bottle of shochu. We ordered additional scallops, shrimp, kalbi, chicken, and even a rare dish of pig's feet. It was my first time trying pig's feet since I was a child, and it was delicious. The atmosphere of the restaurant was cozy, and the service was excellent. We were very satisfied with our meal, and the total bill for three adults, including food and drinks, came to around 13,000 yen, which we felt was very reasonable.

This is a place in Shirakaba-cho, Hokkaido, which is a bit difficult to explain, so please check the location on Tabelog's map as usual. I saw this restaurant on a TV information program and decided to visit. I parked my car in the back parking lot and entered through the front entrance. The waitress led me to a sunken kotatsu table in the back of the restaurant. I looked at the lunch menu and wanted to order the salted hormone that was featured on TV, but it wasn't on the lunch menu, so I ordered the "Mixed Set Meal" with salted hormone instead. They served tea and sauce for dipping first, followed by a charcoal grill, salad, meat, rice, pickles, and miso soup. I made the sauce and started grilling the meat. I enjoyed the grilled lamb lightly dipped in sauce on rice, then tried the salted hormone the same way. The sauce paired well with the rice, making it very tasty. I also had the salad and miso soup while grilling the meat three times. I finished everything, but I still want to try the hormone and the main dish next time, so I plan to visit again on a day with special service menus.

I went to lunch with my friends. The restaurant seemed empty as we were the only customers, but the kind owner and his wife welcomed us warmly. We ordered a set of charcoal-grilled meats including hormone, miso-flavored hormone, Genghis Khan, beef tongue, kalbi, and sagari. We weren't sure if the kimchi was part of the set or a complimentary dish, but we enjoyed the pickled vegetables and ginger. The hormone was easy to eat and the miso-flavored hormone was delicious. The Genghis Khan and beef tongue were also tasty, and we felt that the set for 2480 yen (I think) was a good deal. I would like to come back with my family next time to try the family set for dinner.

A long-standing local favorite yakiniku restaurant in Kitahiroshima! You can enjoy delicious yakiniku cooked slowly over charcoal on a shichirin grill. The original miso hormone is absolutely amazing☆☆☆☆☆ It's so fresh and chewy that you'll wonder what you've been eating as hormone until now. The sweet and spicy miso flavor with the crispy charred edges is irresistible! The side menu is also extensive, featuring Hokkaido's specialty dish, Genghis Khan (also exceptional!), as well as fish, bibimbap, cold noodles, and more. Among them, the liver sashimi... I used to dislike liver, but I overcame it here☆ It's incredibly delicious!! You wrap it in green onions and dip it in salted sesame oil for a refreshing taste. You can easily finish two servings with a smile. The owner and his wife are warm and welcoming, making it a wonderful yakiniku restaurant that makes you want to come back again.
