I visited the restaurant on a weekend night in June 2022. There were customers waiting in front of the store. I had to write down my name and the number of people on a waiting list and waited for 30 minutes before being able to enter. I ordered various items such as beef tongue, rice, roast beef tongue yukhoe, cow knee cartilage, pork belly, spicy stew, top tongue, intestine, grilled heart, and zabuton. I also ordered a few drinks. Despite being busy, the staff checked on our plates frequently and provided timely service. The beef tongue (salt and sauce) is a specialty of the restaurant and is incredibly delicious with a good amount of fat and no odor. The rice (large) comes with a sauce that enhances its flavor. The roast beef tongue yukhoe is visually similar to roast beef but made with tongue and tastes great with the egg yolk and sauce. The cow knee cartilage was cooked well without being tough. The pork belly (sauce) had a good balance of fat and lean meat. The spicy stew had daikon radish and konjac as ingredients and was slightly spicy but tasty. The top tongue (salt) was delicious, and the intestine had a surprisingly light sauce. The grilled heart (salt) was perfectly seasoned and not tough. The zabuton (sauce) was like steak meat with good fat marbling and a rich flavor. Overall, all the meats and offal were delicious, and considering the location, quality, quantity, and price, it was definitely worth it. The only downside is that it can get crowded, so there may be a wait depending on the time. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back.

In the midst of a scorching heat, my wife and I enjoyed some barbecue at "Ajekiyamachi Danguriten". We made a reservation for the 3:00 PM opening time and the place quickly filled up. It's truly a popular spot. We ordered their famous hoso, premium tongue, heavenly meat, and today's recommended chateaubriand. We also got some top-quality harami, regular beef belly, meat kimchi, and a three kinds of kimchi platter, along with some white rice. Every dish was satisfying in terms of portion size and quality. The hoso, in particular, was exquisite. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was that of a typical casual barbecue joint. Just be aware that the smell tends to stick to your clothes, so caution is advised. They provide garbage bags, so I recommend using them.

I arrived around 7:30 p.m. on a regular day and there were about 10 groups waiting. I waited for about an hour and finally got a table. Many types of meat were sold out, but I was able to order the most popular Hoso. It was a very large piece of meat with a great taste! It was really delicious!!

When I went on a short trip to Kyoto, I visited this famous restaurant that is well-known among hormone and yakiniku lovers. The specialty here is definitely the hoso (thinly sliced meat)! As shown in the photo, this portion is enough for one person. If you're dining alone, just this and rice will fill you up. I also tried the steamed pork and tongue, both of which were delicious. If I have the chance to visit again, I would definitely go back, although it can be difficult due to the long queues.

This is a delicious yakiniku restaurant in Kyoto that specializes in hoso (thinly sliced beef rib). I went around 4:30 pm on a holiday and didn't have to wait in line. I had visited the main branch before and was blown away by how delicious the hoso was, so I decided to go again this time. It wasn't as amazing as my previous visit, but it was still really good. Next time, I want to try the pork loin as well!

Popular hormone restaurant within walking distance from Kawaramachi in Kyoto. The restaurant has a good ventilation system and you can see inside from the noren curtain. The red tables are appetizing. Started with a drink, ordered a zero-sugar lemon highball. They offer a variety of meats, and you can order everything in half portions, which is great. Started with my favorites, upper mino and urute. The regular bara soy sauce garlic extra was rich in flavor. Compared the grilled senmai (skin) and grilled ketsu (tail). Starting to get full, so grilled the top harami carefully. Finished with red senmai with salt, savoring the quality of the ingredients. Ate a lot of meat. The atmosphere in the restaurant was lively and I felt rejuvenated. It's amazing that I could eat and drink so much for less than 5000 yen! Will definitely visit again!

We visited without a reservation at 6 pm on a regular day with 4 people and got in! Lucky us! We ate about 5 servings of fine salt and ended up with terrible indigestion the next day. But it was delicious! I know it's bad for me, but I can't help myself. The white, beautiful fine salt is amazing. Even if you're not a fan, I recommend trying it. The skirt steak and lean meat were also tender and delicious. You can enjoy the meal even if you can't eat offal.

This is my second time using it. It was delicious before, but it was still delicious. However, I think it's difficult that you can't make a reservation. It would be nice if reservations could be made even on weekdays, as there are customers coming from other prefectures. However, it's definitely worth the wait, so if you're hesitating, I hope you try the "hosomaki" for sure.

I changed to this restaurant because another one was closed, and it turned out to be a great choice. It had a classic yakiniku restaurant vibe with a grill in the middle for cooking the meat. The staff were willing to help grill the meat if needed. I tried the hoso (thinly sliced meat) first, and despite being worried about the fat content, it was surprisingly light and delicious when dipped in the special sauce. They had a variety of hormone (offal) options, and I was impressed by how tasty and unique the urute (intestines) were. The chikarakobu (beef tendon) was thick and flavorful, something I had never tried before. I can't wait to go back and try more cuts of meat next time!

We left the pizzeria and trattoria GION and wanted to have a few more drinks and snacks with my husband. We headed to another place that seemed like a good option, but it was already closed. As we were walking around, we came across this place where there is usually always a line. Since it was a bit late, there was no line and there were empty seats inside, so we decided to stop by. My husband had a draft beer, and I had oolong tea for a toast. We ordered some thin-sliced beef, beef tongue with salt, mixed offal, and kimchi for snacks. When the meat was brought to us, we were surprised by the amount. It seemed like they brought us double the portion we ordered. We grilled the meat on the roaster and tried to enjoy it, but the thin-sliced beef was too fatty and lacked flavor even after dipping it in broth. The beef tongue, mixed offal, and kimchi also didn't meet our expectations in terms of taste. As the title suggests, it was a bit tough for us to enjoy the meal at our age. We left soon after and returned to our hotel room. Thank you for the meal~.

After payday every month, I go to Aje with my girlfriend! Aje is irresistible! It has become a regular monthly routine. The service is always great, and we always enjoy the delicious food. The salted tongue is amazing, and you can't taste it like this anywhere else. If I had to say something, I would like the white sauce to be brought back!!! Thank you always!

I visited this restaurant after researching it online and it caught my interest. There was only a line of two people, so we were able to get inside in about 10 minutes. The interior of the restaurant was quite smoky, typical of a yakiniku place, so be sure to choose clothes that you don't mind getting the smell on! We ordered the salted hump, marinated beef tendons, and kimchi stew, which are popular choices. I wanted to order the top tongue with salt as well, but unfortunately, it was sold out for the day. The most famous hump was indeed delicious. It had a nice amount of oil, and dipping it in the sauce with green onions added a refreshing touch to the flavor. By the way, the sauce on the left side with onions is for dipping. The marinated beef tendons seemed a bit overcooked, as they were slightly tough. Be careful as the heat is quite strong. The edges might still be a bit undercooked. The kimchi stew we ordered had more volume than it appeared, and it wasn't too spicy, making it a perfect way to finish the meal. Just be cautious as it is hot and you might burn yourself. By the way, "aje" is a word that has been used in Korea for a long time and means "uncle." I wonder why they chose this name. Maybe it was simply named after the uncle who created it? I don't know, but it's amusing. I'll try the salted tongue next time it's available! Thank you for the meal.

Reservation is available, but only during opening hours. I made a reservation for 3:00 PM on a holiday, as they open at that time. Even without a reservation, you can still walk in. I ordered the "Hoso" for 600 yen, which is recommended with salt. It's a classic dish where you dip the meat in a special sauce, and it seems like most people order it. I also ordered other cuts like tongue, harami, and belly. For side dishes, I ordered the following: Seigoin Daikon for 600 yen, Napa cabbage kimchi for 500 yen, Namul assortment for 650 yen, additional cabbage for 200 yen, and staff curry for around 500 yen (listed as very spicy, but not actually that spicy).

I arrived at 4 o'clock for my reservation. Dining early allows you to leisurely enjoy your meal. This yakiniku restaurant offers generous portions of tan shio, red meat mix, and other cuts at a reasonable price, so you can enjoy your favorite cuts to your heart's content, whether dining alone or in a group. The kimchi stew and egg over rice were also delicious.

The famous hosogaki was incredibly white, shiny, and delicious - I had never seen anything like it before! I tried lotus root namul for the first time, and it was also delicious. They offered drink refills at an incredible pace, constantly asking if we wanted more. I had been wanting to go there for about 8 years, and finally made it. I heard it's always crowded because they don't take reservations, but we got in easily.

Located in Kyoto, the original salt hormone restaurant where you can enjoy Kyoto's famous salt hormone. A popular spot for yakiniku enthusiasts, Aje Kiyamachi Danguri-ten is a rustic restaurant that serves delicious salt hormone with no unpleasant odor and tasty fat. The signature dish is best enjoyed by dipping it in a refreshing broth after grilling. They also offer delicious dishes like raw liver, black beef roast beef yukhoe, and spicy curry as a finishing touch. A must-visit for yakiniku lovers in Kyoto and Osaka.

A yakiniku hormone restaurant that is always full. The salted hormone seems to be popular, so I ordered the famous salted hoso. It was thick and satisfying in volume. In addition, we also had top loin, geara, akasen, and more. Even after eating to our heart's content with two adults, the bill was around 10,000 yen, making it a very reasonable restaurant. The meat and drinks were served quickly, and the service was efficient. There are both counter and table seats. The atmosphere was lively with groups of people in suits drinking and many university students, but there were also families and solo drinkers, creating a vibrant atmosphere in the restaurant.

Serious Kyoto Yakiniku! A Kyoto yakiniku restaurant located in Gion Shijo. The salt-seasoned meat is the real deal here. Starting with the famous Salt Hoso, then moving on to the top tongue salt, top loin, top kalbi, etc., all of them are so delicious that you can't help but be amazed. The cute waitstaff added to the atmosphere, making it a wonderful and elegant night. Thank you very much.

On Monday at 5:30 PM, the restaurant was already full, with about 4 groups of customers waiting outside. It was a holiday, so the restaurant opened at 4:00 PM. I was able to get a table around 6:10 PM, as there was a turnover of customers between 5:30 and 6:00 PM. The restaurant was getting more crowded with waiting customers. I started with the famous hoso (thinly sliced beef) and tongue, along with a pure highball. I couldn't resist ordering kimchi and namul as well. Then I had the loin, crunchy tripe, and seseri (chicken neck). Unfortunately, they were sold out of hormone and fresh items, which was a bit disappointing. The mango beer (limited to summer) was delicious. The hoso was so tender and melted in my mouth. The flavor was really sweet and tasty. Just thinking about it makes me smile. I ordered a few more dishes, had 3 drinks, and ended up spending around 5,000 yen per person. Whenever I go to a yakiniku restaurant, I always end up ordering one more plate than I should. I should work on finding the right balance soon.

Fresh hormone, full of volume! Be careful not to order too much. The fresh hormone had no unpleasant smell, and I enjoyed eating lots of my favorite small intestines! I thought you needed a reservation at this popular restaurant, but surprisingly not. Perhaps because the turnover is fast, I saw customers waiting outside for a table to open up. It's definitely worth the wait to eat delicious hormone. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I love Ajie. The atmosphere at the Koyamachi branch is great. The food is incredibly delicious and yet affordable. It's like a paradise on earth. They open at 4pm, and even on weekends, if you go right when they open, you can get in without waiting. The hormone dishes are amazing, and I always order the Kimpa because it's so delicious.
