The meat was so delicious that I couldn't stop eating with chopsticks. I ordered 180g of meat cooked to medium rare. For an additional fee, the meal came with salad, miso soup, and rice (which you can choose the size of). Personally, the salad and miso soup were nothing special, so I should have added more meat or rice instead. The rice alone costs 200 yen, but with miso soup and salad, it costs 350 yen. You can choose from three sizes for the meat. See other reviews for their menu. The medium rare was quite rare, with a rawness that was really delicious - it was a bit salty, but it paired perfectly with the rice, creating a happy moment as I savored the meat and rice together. This restaurant is only in Minami-Ikebukuro in Kanto region. I definitely want to go back again. Thank you for the meal.

The restaurant was not in a prominent location, but going down to the shop felt like entering a secret base, which was exciting and nerve-wracking. The interior of the shop was full of seats and resembled a cave. The dish was a hamburger that has been loved and operated in Sapporo for many years, so I was looking forward to it, and it was delicious. It was served on a hot plate, sizzling in front of me, which was surprising! Once I tasted it, I was convinced! I couldn't stop eating with chopsticks. It was great that you could order by grams or customize it to your liking. I highly recommend this restaurant.

* Waiting time * No wait on Thursday at 17:30 Order completed at 17:33 Arrived at 17:45 Finished eating at 18:00 * Order & Price * Hamburger 180g Medium Single 1500 yen * Atmosphere of the shop * The shop is based on wood tones. The cave-like walls were more stylish than I expected. The underground location means the signal is not great. JPOP music is playing. * Service * Cash only. They provided a paper apron for my belongings. After the meal, they gave me a new hand towel. They left a polite and kind impression. * Impression * I had been curious about this place for a while. It came with a sizzling sound. It was round and had a good volume. The vegetables included broccoli, onion, carrot, and potato chunks. The texture was enjoyable and delicious. The hamburger had a clean lattice pattern. When I tried it, it was soft and fluffy, not as coarse as it looked. However, the pepper was strong, giving it a spicy flavor. It seemed like it would go well with cheese. I ordered it as a single, but I ended up wanting rice. The inside was pink, like it was raw. * Expectations * I prefer a more coarse ground hamburger with a meatier flavor, but the atmosphere was nice.

In Ikebukuro, a popular hamburger specialty shop that rivals the Big Four of Hamburgers. The main store is in Sapporo, with only one location in Minami-Ikebukuro in the Kanto region. Today, there was a line of 10 people waiting. Descend the stairs to the underground and enter the shop. The hamburger size is M 230g, cooked to a medium-well doneness, with toppings like a sunny-side-up egg and a special order of extra large 300g rice. The hamburger served on a hot iron plate is made of 100% beef without any fillers, giving it a meaty texture but still tender. When cut, it is cooked quite rare, with a visual of pinkness in the meat. The key to the flavor is the spicy original sauce made from various stewed vegetables, garlic, and black pepper, which enhances the deliciousness of the hamburger. The hamburger is so tasty that the extra large portion of rice was quickly devoured.

The Hamburg lunch set offers different prices based on the amount of meat. I chose the 180g option for 1,500 yen. The toppings include rice, salad, soup, hamburg steak, potatoes, broccoli, and carrots. The hamburg steak was cooked medium-well, juicy and hot. The sauce had a strong pepper flavor, giving it a nice kick. The rice was delicious and went well with the meal.

I visited this place that I had been curious about because Miyazakitei was closed on a late Saturday afternoon. There was a wait of about 5 people, and I waited for about 20 minutes. The 180g hamburger steak with cheddar cheese sauce had a strong flavor, and I thought it would have been better with rice. The hamburger was meaty and delicious. The cheddar cheese sauce paired well with it. It was convenient that they took our order quickly while we were waiting in line.

The hamburgers at this restaurant were juicy and had a wonderful flavor. The quality of the meat was high, and I definitely want to go back. I made hamburgers at home yesterday and my family loved them, especially the sauce. I tried this hamburger based on a friend's recommendation and it was as delicious as I expected. I recently improved my hamburger recipe with a fluffy texture and secret seasoning, which was a big hit with my family.

During weekdays, I ordered the 180g lunch set with medium doneness and a small portion of rice. The meal started with a salad and miso soup, and about 15 minutes later, the hamburger arrived. The hot plate was sizzling, allowing me to adjust the cooking to my liking. The hamburger itself was flat, making it easy to cook to the desired doneness. The sauce was spicy with a strong black pepper flavor, which went well with the white rice. The side vegetables were average and served more as a palate cleanser. Despite the 180g portion, I felt quite full. The restaurant was not well air-conditioned, and combined with the spicy sauce, I ended up sweating throughout the meal. Also, after 40 minutes, my clothes smelled like meat, so be cautious if you have plans afterward. I am interested in trying the additional toppings next time, as the hamburger itself was very delicious.

I entered the restaurant right at the 5:30 opening time and the atmosphere was better than expected. I ordered a 230g (M) size steak and was very satisfied with the portion. I asked for medium doneness, but it was actually rare, so I would have preferred it cooked a bit more. I want to try it more well-done next time.

I arrived at the restaurant around noon on a regular day and there were about 5 people waiting on the stairs. I waited for about 20 minutes before being able to enter. I ordered a 230g hamburger cooked medium, with a medium-sized rice and a topping of cream croquette (1,800+180). The hamburger was cooked quite rare, almost close to raw in the center, with a flavorful taste and a good amount of pepper. I personally really liked it, but it might be preferred closer to medium-well done. The salad, miso soup, and cream croquette were decent. The service was very polite, and they even brought a new hot towel after I finished my meal.

I discovered that Ikebukuro is a battleground for hamburgers, so I decided to challenge myself to conquer this paradise of hamburgers. The first shop I visited was known for allowing customers to choose the doneness of their burger, including rare. The place was packed when I arrived, but I managed to secure a table as the last customer for the first round. I ordered the "300g Medium Rare with extra rice" and eagerly awaited my meal. When it arrived, the presentation was impressive, but unfortunately, the taste was a letdown. It was overly salty and spicy, completely overpowering the quality of the meat. Despite this, I managed to finish my meal as I don't like to leave food uneaten. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, and I won't be returning to this place. Lesson learned: don't always trust online reviews.

Today, I wanted to eat delicious hamburg steak, so I went to Sapporo Gyutei in Ikebukuro, which has high ratings. I ordered a 300g medium rare hamburger steak, and the meat was tender with no unpleasant smell. The special sauce matched perfectly and it was very delicious. I had a satisfying meal!

A hamburger specialty restaurant from Hokkaido. The menu is mostly just hamburgers, with only soup, salad, and a few toppings available. The specialty of the restaurant is the option to choose the amount of all-beef patty and the level of doneness. I went right after the opening and managed to get the last table, as the place was almost full. The interior of the restaurant is mostly women, indicating its popularity. I ordered a 300g patty cooked medium-well. I chose the small size rice with salad and soup as a set. While waiting, I prepared my stomach with the salad and miso soup. The food arrived in about 10 minutes, with a lot of steam coming out as the iron plate was brought to the table. The circular patty with visible lines and a soy sauce with plenty of garlic bubbling on top already smelled delicious. The patty was hot, with a slightly red center and a crispy surface. The texture was unique, with a crispy exterior and a melty core. I ate half as is and cut the rest into bite-sized pieces to cook the cut side for a well-done texture. The rice was cooked just right, complementing the hamburger well. The 300g patty was quite filling. Full stomach!

I visited the restaurant around 3 pm, after the lunchtime rush. Even at that time, the place was almost full and bustling with customers. You can choose the amount of meat, doneness, and rice portion for the lunch menu. I was very hungry, so I ordered 300g of meat, cooked medium-rare, and extra rice. Before the main dish, a mini salad and miso soup were served. The salad was refreshing and tasty, and the miso soup had just the right amount of saltiness. Then, the main dish, the steak, arrived. The sizzling hot hamburger steak was served on a hot plate. The sauce was a steak sauce with a strong black pepper flavor. The peppery taste paired well with the rice. Personally, I like hamburgers with a strong pepper flavor, so this restaurant's taste suits me perfectly! If you don't like undercooked meat, it might be better to order it well-done. I will definitely visit again! ☺️

On Sunday, August 6, 2023, at 1:35 PM, the restaurant was almost full with only 2 seats available at the counter. The menu only offers hamburgers, with prices varying based on the size of the hamburger, toppings, and whether it is a set or single item. The "Gyutei Set" costs 350, a 180g hamburger is priced at 1500, and a medium rice with 200g serving costs 200.

During a break from work, I had a solo lunch at a small Western-style restaurant located about a 5-minute walk from Ikebukuro Station East Exit. This restaurant is the first location outside of Hokkaido for Sapporo Gyutei, which has been popular among residents of Hokkaido since its founding in 1981. While the Hokkaido locations serve steak and omurice, this particular restaurant specializes in hamburgers. According to reviews, there can be long lines outside the restaurant depending on the day and time, but I visited around 2 pm on a Wednesday and was able to enter easily. The restaurant has a capacity of 27 seats, with 5 tables for 4 people and a counter with 7 seats. The place was about half full when I visited, and the customers were mainly business people dining alone. It was my first time there, but ordering was straightforward following the instructions on "how to order" placed in front of me. Since the menu only offers hamburgers, I ordered a 180g hamburger cooked medium with less rice, and added a fried egg on top like the OL sitting next to me. After ordering, I quickly received a salad and miso soup. It seemed like they automatically served this as a set. I enjoyed the seaweed-filled miso soup while waiting for about 15 minutes for the main dish to arrive. The 180g hamburger was served on a hot iron plate with sizzling sauce in the center. When I cut into it, the inside was bright red, which was equivalent to rare in other restaurants. I was a bit disappointed when I couldn't order rare, but I was thrilled to try the medium hamburger. The hamburger, made only with red meat without any fillers, was incredibly meaty and flavorful. The garlic and black pepper in the slightly spicy sauce enhanced the meat's taste even more. I felt like having a beer with this delicious meal. Although it was past the peak lunch hour, more people kept coming in, and by the time I finished eating, the restaurant was almost full. I could see why this place is so popular. I would like to come back for lunch with my colleagues. Thank you for the meal. I will visit again.

It's a shop located under the stairs near Seibu Department Store. I visited around 7:30 pm on a holiday, and had to wait about 15 minutes as it was full. I ordered the Gyutei set in size S, with extra melty cheese, the hamburger cooked well-done, and a small portion of rice. The hamburger was a bit peppery, so if you don't like spicy food, you might want to go easy on it. The side dishes were also delicious! I had the impression that the well-done was quite rare, but it was good that I could adjust it on the hot plate. Despite ordering the S size, it was quite filling and satisfying. There were many types of Febreze available, so I felt reassured about the smell on the way home.

Actually, I used to dislike hamburg steak. I mentioned to a friend that I had never come across a delicious hamburg steak, and they passionately insisted that the hamburg steak at this place is absolutely delicious! Feeling a bit anxious, I arrived at the restaurant. As soon as I saw the entrance, I thought, "Wow, I love this stylish exterior!" My expectations rose. The interior had a stylish atmosphere with a wide variety of Fabreze scents. I walked over to the counter and ordered the hamburg steak. When it arrived, I took a look and thought, "Hmm, hmm." (feeling hesitant due to my dislike). I reluctantly took a bite. Wow! This meat juice is amazing! It's so meaty and juicy! The strong meaty flavor that I was looking for was definitely there. The hamburg steak at Sapporo Gyutei won over my heart with its deliciousness that even made a picky eater like me impressed. When in Ikebukuro, this is the place to go for a meal! (I've been back 4 times already)

I stopped by for lunch on my way to work at Ikebukuro Station. Inside the underground-like restaurant, there were counter seats and table seats, making it suitable for individuals or groups. You can choose the size of the hamburger, how well it is cooked, the amount of rice, and the toppings. I opted for a 180g medium-cooked hamburger with a large portion of rice and topped it with fried chicken. After a short wait, a rare hamburger made with 100% beef appeared on the hot plate. The cooking can be adjusted on the hot plate, allowing you to eat at your preferred timing. Unlike the rough and bold hamburger made with 100% beef, this one was smooth and melted in your mouth. The fried chicken topping was also delicious. It was a satisfying lunch with such delicious hamburger after a long time. Thank you for the meal.

When it comes to hamburgers in Ikebukuro, it's all about Hokkaido Gyu-tei in the east and Miyazaki-tei in the west!! This was my first visit. I arrived on a Saturday at 19:10 and finally got seated at 20:00. The restaurant is located in the underground floor of the Higashi-dori Shotengai in Ikebukuro's east exit. It was crowded everywhere on a Saturday, and I had to wait for almost an hour to finally get in. The clientele was mostly young people. The menu mainly focuses on hamburgers, with Gyu-tei's original sauce being the only option. You can choose the size, doneness, and rice portion, with a variety of toppings available. What I ordered: - Hamburg 230g for 1800 yen - Gyu-tei set for 350 yen (mini salad, rice, soup) - Karaage (as a topping) for 100 yen The hamburger was beautifully round and flat. It was so tender that it easily crumbled with chopsticks. I ordered it medium, but it was quite rare inside. I was a bit worried that it wasn't cooked through, but I was too hungry to care. Despite the rareness, it wasn't too fatty. When compared to Miyazaki-tei, the prices are similar, but the taste is definitely better at Miyazaki-tei. However, Gyu-tei offers a variety of toppings and extreme doneness options that Miyazaki-tei doesn't have, making it a different dining experience. Both places are a bit difficult to get into, with Gyu-tei often having long queues and Miyazaki-tei sometimes not being open.
