Located a 3-minute walk from Ueno Station on the JR lines, a 3-minute walk from Okachimachi Station on the JR Yamanote Line, a 1-minute walk from Ueno-Hirokoji Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, and a 3-minute walk from Yushima Station on the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line, this Ueno-based long-established yakiniku restaurant with a 60-year history is a great choice for a business meal. The interior of the restaurant has been renovated and looks clean and stylish. Every type of meat we tried was truly delicious, but there are a few that left a lasting impression. The Negi-wrapped tongue with salt was visually appealing and had a refined taste when eaten with the green onion. The Upper Kalbi, including the fat, was rich and flavorful. The Harami (skirt steak) is my favorite cut, and it was incredibly tasty as well. Perhaps due to being a long-established yakiniku restaurant, the quality of the meat was outstanding. It was a very satisfying yakiniku experience.

I visited during lunchtime and ordered a la carte. It was a bit past 2 pm, a very awkward time, so I was worried if any restaurants were still open. But this place seems to be open all day. I ordered thick-cut premium salted tongue thinly sliced, premium harami, premium kalbi, garlic yakiniku, Sanriku wakame salad, premium loin, hormone, and kimchi. Unfortunately, the most expensive one I ordered was disappointing, it was chewy and felt cheap. However, all the other meats were delicious! They were tender, fatty but not too heavy. I also enjoyed the grilled vegetables and mushrooms that came with the meat dishes. The salad and kuppataan salt were also tasty. The seating was spacious and the atmosphere was nice, so I would like to visit again when I'm unsure where to have lunch at an odd time.

I felt like eating Negi-wrapped tongue, so I landed in Ueno Hirokoji for the first time. The Silky Yukhoe was surprisingly thick and not as thin as Kintan, allowing me to fully enjoy the flavors! I personally liked the sauce and would like to eat it again! As for the Negi-wrapped tongue that I had high expectations for, it was not as good as I had hoped. The Special Tongue Assortment was delicious! (Of course, with the seasoned Negi) Both the Silky Yukhoe and Negi-wrapped tongue are limited in quantity, but the staff said they have enough stock until late at night, haha. It was satisfying to enjoy yakiniku more cost-effectively than in Tokyo, and the interior of the restaurant was also beautiful.

Today I had lunch here with my colleagues. After finishing our errands, we decided to go around Ueno area. This area is known for its fierce competition among yakiniku (Japanese BBQ) restaurants, so it was hard to decide where to go. We chose a place with a calm atmosphere and were seated immediately without waiting. They had a variety of lunch menus ranging from 1,000 yen, all of which were reasonably priced. Since there were two of us, we ordered the voluminous lunch set with 260g of harami (skirt steak) and kalbi (short rib). The meat was thickly cut and very satisfying. The sauce had a bit of spiciness which went well with beer (I had hot oolong tea though). Honestly, I didn't have high expectations for the meat, but it turned out to be delicious with a good balance of fat and tenderness. The more you chew, the more you can taste the sweetness of the meat. It was a pleasant surprise for us. Our conversation flowed as we enjoyed the meal, but my stomach's capacity was reaching its limit, so we called it a day. Thank you for the meal!

Today's lunch was at the long-established restaurant, Daisho-en, in Ueno, known for its fierce competition in yakiniku (Japanese BBQ). This restaurant has been around since 1963 and is also the parent company of the well-known Kadokura in Ameyoko. It had been about 5 years since my last visit, and I noticed that the somewhat old exterior had been slightly renovated. Upon entering, I was surprised to see that the interior had been completely renovated into a high-end restaurant, with what seemed like couple seats at the counter. I ordered the lunch special set of kalbi and harami, totaling 340 grams for 2,930 yen. The kimchi and wakame soup served first. The kimchi was quite spicy, although the portion was rather small. The wakame soup was nothing special, just a normal tasting soup you would expect at a yakiniku restaurant. The main yakiniku plate arrived, overflowing with delicious-looking meat. I tried grilling the harami, and the fat melted, making the meat tender and juicy. The harmony of the meat and fat with the marinade was superb. The meat had a good thickness, allowing it to be crispy on the outside while remaining juicy inside. Next, I grilled the kalbi on the scorching hot iron plate and savored the juicy, flavorful meat. It had a wild and junky flavor compared to the harami, but still paired perfectly with the sauce. I quickly scooped up some white rice to enjoy with the meat. It was fantastic. I felt a greater sense of satisfaction compared to all-you-can-eat yakiniku. I finished two large servings of rice and reset my slightly heavy stomach with the set's iced coffee, which unfortunately was not delicious. If you want to eat cheap, plentiful, and delicious meat in Ueno, I highly recommend this place.

The exterior and interior of the restaurant are beautiful, making it easy for women to visit together. We enjoyed the set menu which allowed us to try various cuts of meat in small portions. Adding the all-you-can-drink option made it even more enjoyable. They also had couple seats available. We will definitely visit again. Next time, I would love to try the "scallop porridge". Thank you for the meal.

The stylish appearance of the store caught my attention, so I decided to go in. The interior was also well-designed with comfortable sofas and nice lighting. I tried the thick-cut steak platter, which was tasty but not exceptional. The service was lacking and the overall experience was not impressive. The atmosphere was good, but the service was not very welcoming. Considering the taste and service, I don't think I will visit this restaurant again.

The lingering taste of the food while adding photos to my food log is amazing. The Silk Yukke is incredible, so soft that it melts in your mouth with a hint of sweetness, absolutely delicious. The Negi-wrapped Tan Shio is cute and delicious too! The Ultimate Mori allows you to enjoy small bites of deliciousness, keeping your mouth happy throughout. Finished with my favorite cold noodles, perfect for a hot summer day! The restaurant is clean and the atmosphere at the two-person table is especially good. It was a happy time.

Next to a yakiniku restaurant is another yakiniku restaurant. What a chaotic corner. Amidst it all, there is a particularly clean and refreshing facade. I had decided to go there since last week, thinking that I could eat delicious meat here. As I get older, I have a decent amount of money, but I can't eat as much, so I want to eat delicious food little by little with good service. The first thing I ordered was a thick cut assortment. It was thick and took a while to cook (laughs). Once it was cooked, I cut it with scissors. A bit of a hassle (laughs). The beef tongue and brisket look similar as they cook, so it's hard to tell which is which. The seating was comfortable, but all the non-beer items were cleared away while I was drinking, and the meat and service were just okay. Unfortunately, it didn't become my favorite restaurant. Thank you for the meal.

*Ueno Taishoen Ueno Main Store in Ueno* This yakiniku restaurant serves delicious single-item dishes. This time, I chose the Tegutan Udon! The noodles were translucent and chewy, very delicious. The thick-cut tongue was also consistently tasty! The specialty seems to be the Silk Yukke, but since it was lunchtime, I passed on it. The interior and seating are clean, making it a great choice for friends or couples. I would love to visit again for lunch! #UenoTaishoen #UenoTaishoenUenoMainStore #UenoLunch #UenoGourmet

There is a yakiniku restaurant a short walk from Ueno Station. I ordered the Yukke for 1,850 yen, thick-cut liver for 1,500 yen, Harami for 1,700 yen, and Teppanyaki soup (half) for 600 yen. The interior of the restaurant is very clean! Especially the individual seating is luxurious with high chairs, allowing you to eat without worrying about the surroundings. I visited around 3 pm and was able to be seated without a reservation. The Yukke I ordered was delicious, and the thick-cut liver had no unpleasant smell and was tasty. The prices may not be cheap, but considering the quality of the meat and the ambiance, it's totally worth it. It was delicious, thank you for the meal.

My husband recently tried this place and really liked the lunch here, so he brought me to visit for the first time. The interior of the restaurant is new and clean, and the spacious seating, cleanliness, and excellent customer service from the staff were particularly impressive. There are many lunch menu options, from affordable to satisfying meals, and I would like to come back to try other lunch items. The option to choose between sherbet or coffee after the meal is also a plus. Even if you come alone, you can enjoy your meal in a spacious two-seater booth without having to worry about the surroundings.

There is an old established yakiniku restaurant in Ueno, located on Nakamise Street, which has been renovated and now has a luxurious atmosphere that would be suitable for couples. We arrived at 5:00 PM without a reservation and were able to get a table. The salad, tteokguk (Korean rice cake soup), and silk yukhoe (beef tartare) were delicious. The senmai (beef intestine), special tongue with salt, and negi wrapped tongue with salt were all tasty. The negi (green onion) wrapping around the tongue was impressive as it didn't fall apart. The negi salt kalbi (short rib) had a refreshing taste and was not too heavy like regular kalbi. We also ordered the premium kalbi at the end. The meat overall had a mild flavor, and the meat sauce was delicious. For the ending, you can choose between rice, naengmyeon (cold noodles), coffee, or sherbet. While the sherbet is the complimentary option, for those who don't want something sweet, the coffee would be a good choice. Thank you for the meal!

We started with the famous Negi-wrapped Tan Shio and Silk Yukke, and enjoyed various delicious meats. Some items on the menu were already sold out, so it's important to order early... a bit disappointing. The private rooms provided a high level of privacy which was nice. Recommended for those who want to eat in a calm environment. The expiration date of the Karashi tube that came with the cold noodles was about 3 weeks past. It's not a big deal at home, but in a restaurant, I would have appreciated if they had checked and served it fresh.

The table for two was very nice! I visited this restaurant for the first time with a hometown tax course. The course was very luxurious and I was full. The meat was delicious in every part, very luxurious and extravagant. The interior of the restaurant was also very beautiful and calming. The table for two is like a box seat and very comfortable. Not only the meat, but the beef stew and beef tendon curry were also excellent. For those who are visiting for the first time, I highly recommend ordering a course that includes these dishes.

All the meats were delicious. You can eat tasty meats if you pay for them, but this place offers deliciousness that rivals high-end restaurants at a reasonable price. I definitely want to visit again. The thick-cut Harami was amazing. The atmosphere and service at the restaurant were also great.

I had always been curious about the tongue and yukhoe. When I visited, the atmosphere was great, the service was excellent, and it was a very comfortable space. The tongue and yukhoe were delicious, and the harami was also tasty. The prices are a bit high, but it's worth it, so I recommend it.

I passed by the shop and decided to enter because it caught my attention. It was already past lunchtime, but I had to wait for almost an hour, showing that it is a popular place. Finally seated, the ordered meat arrived in about 5 minutes. I was impressed by the deliciousness of the meat itself. I may have ordered a bit too much and felt a bit stuffed, but I found a restaurant that I want to visit again. Thank you for the meal.

I enjoyed the carefully selected grilled liver with salt and the thin-sliced beef tendon soup! The carefully selected assortment was beautifully presented and all delicious. The grilled liver was thick and recommended for liver lovers. Make sure not to overcook it (it's a fine line)! The liver was tasty whether lightly grilled or well-cooked. The soup was only half portion but had enough volume. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area!

Ueno's long-established yakiniku restaurant. The shop itself has been renovated and looks new and beautiful. I want to visit the reservation-only annex someday, with its nostalgic Showa era atmosphere. I ordered the famous Negi-wrapped tongue salt and silk yukhoe, among other things. The mountain of Negi on the tongue salt always falls off and I struggle with how to eat it, so this menu is revolutionary for me. It's practical! The silk yukhoe comes in salt and sauce flavors. Personally, I prefer the sauce flavor. The other meats are also delicious. Good value for money. There are also side-by-side seats for two people, which seem suitable for a date. However, the atmosphere outside the restaurant is a bit rowdy. I want to try different types of meat next time.

I made a reservation quickly after seeing it on SNS ☝️ The restaurant seemed to have been renovated and the interior was beautiful. The tables for two were like amusement park couple seats where you can sit side by side, making it perfect for couples. They have a variety of sashimi dishes such as Yukhoe and Senmai, and the Negi-wrapped tongue with salt had a strong onion flavor. All the meat was fresh and well-seasoned, I even had three bowls of rice 😂. #Ueno Taisho-en #Taisho-en #Yakiniku #Grilled meat #Daikanyama ¥8,000 #Tabelog 3.48 🍽️ #Date #Date meal #Izakaya ... #Gourmet #Tabelog #Gourmet trip #Food porn #Food walk #Tabelog award #Want to connect with gourmet lovers #Food porn #Gourmet lover #Gourmet girls #Want to connect with gourmet lovers #Gourmet #Foodstagram #Famous restaurant #Delicious gourmet #Girls' night out #Gourmet girls' night out #Insta gourmet #Lily log
