I visited this place for the first time! It was at the request of my boss who wanted to eat meat! Thank you for the delicious meal♪ We tried various cuts like upper kalbi, kalbi, tongue, sagari, lamb loin, seseri, upper mino, and horumon! We also had cold noodles, which were refreshing! The texture of the noodles was just right and very tasty♡ Everything was delicious, but my favorite was the tongue! However, lemon or salt cost extra haha. The air conditioning didn't work well due to the heat, so we ate our meat while fanning ourselves with a fan haha. It was so hot today! I really wanted to eat lamb, so we ordered two portions, but it had a strong smell haha. People from Hokkaido seem to like that kind of meat! I still have a lot to learn^^; but we ate a lot! We ended the meal with a satisfying dessert. The parking lot was full and the restaurant was crowded even though it was a weekday. Our orders took a while to arrive, but it was understandable given the crowd. It's probably best to make a reservation even on weekdays. Thank you for the meal.

I visited a yakiniku restaurant in Hanazono-cho, Otaru City. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is quiet, with table seats and a small raised seating area in a long and narrow layout, making it a relaxing place to dine. This time, I decided to enjoy some drinks, eat some meat, and finish with cold noodles. The prices are reasonable, and you can also enjoy a hearty meal. I recommend the seared beef tongue and beef kalbi, as well as the grilled Kujo green onions. It's rare to find a restaurant in Hokkaido where you can grill green onions. The aroma of sesame stimulates the appetite. The cold noodles are simple and refreshing after eating meat. The homely atmosphere makes it perfect for regular visits. I will definitely visit again. Thank you for the meal.

I confirmed that I could enter at the opening time without a reservation. It seemed like they were fully booked, but they said it was okay as long as we could finish our meal by the next reservation time, so we stayed for a little over an hour. We ate quickly, but we received pleasant service and delicious yakiniku. The children don't usually eat much yakiniku, but they liked the sweet sauce and ate more than usual. The adults enjoyed the spicy hatsu and kalbi. The pricing was reasonable, the meat was delicious, and we would like to make a reservation next time to enjoy it leisurely.

Cheap and delicious! The sunken kotatsu seating was cozy and comfortable!

Welcome.---------- May 2017 ----------Heading south along Hanazono Street towards Minami Taru, across from Boa New Hakomukai, you will find Nikuyaki, a meat grill restaurant. The impressive open flame in front of the store catches your eye. Inside the deep and almost slightly elevated space, the kitchen is bustling with the smiles and humble demeanor of the staff. By 7 pm, the restaurant was fully packed. I learned that although there are many family members involved in running the restaurant, the bond between parents, siblings, and the family is deep and strong, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. There are only two table seats, and sitting at one of them provides a close view of the kitchen, with the staff frequently coming over to interact with you. The restaurant has been in operation for 17 years, and despite its age, it is well-maintained due to its recent relocation. I ordered a lemon highball and a generous serving of charcoal-grilled kimchi. The food included a crispy and chewy kakuteki, a mild spicy cabbage, and a refreshing cucumber salad. The Cholegi salad was a mix of sesame oil-flavored greens with Korean-style dressing, a perfect start to the meal. The highlight of the meal was the premium kalbi, which melted in your mouth with a refined taste. The upper tongue had a tender texture and a refreshing fat content. The sanchu with miso complemented the meat dishes perfectly. The salted pork trotters had a crispy texture and a juicy sweetness. The pork cartilage was cooked to perfection, providing a crunchy and enjoyable eating experience. The thick-cut, fatty pork belly was long and had a unique texture due to the cuts in the fat, making it crispy and juicy. The spicy miso tripe was crunchy and packed with flavor, with a well-cooked texture and a sweet and savory miso sauce. The sagari with a tender texture and a strong beefy flavor was a hit. The marbled Japanese beef sirloin was rich in fat, creating a heavenly experience. The thick-cut special tongue had a strong sweetness, which was enhanced by squeezing lemon over it. The Yukkejang soup was a delightful combination of sesame oil, beef broth, and egg, providing a smooth and slightly spicy flavor. The overall experience was enhanced by the warm and welcoming atmosphere created by the family running the restaurant. From start to finish, I enjoyed a moment of hospitality and delicious food. Thank you for the meal.
