It is a chain restaurant with high Tabelog points, so I have been wanting to visit for a while. I used it for a social gathering with my colleagues. The yakitori is grilled over charcoal, the skin is crispy and the inside is juicy. I wish the tsukune was a bit thicker. Overall, it's just average and safe. Thank you for the meal.

First visit. I usually avoid this place because it's always crowded, but I went for lunch at a different time today. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is Japanese-style and nice, and the seats are clean. The food was also very delicious. The rice was cooked perfectly. I definitely want to come back.

Compared to regular chicken, I was impressed by the difference in quality when I first encountered "slightly better" food as a working adult almost 20 years ago. I remember being amazed by the yakitori I used to eat at izakayas during my student days, and the oyakodon was unbelievably delicious. Time has passed, and now in my 40s, I ordered the oyakodon for 1300 yen for lunch. While I didn't feel the same level of excitement as back then, I still think that Hinai-jidori chicken has a good texture and is delicious. The cooked egg was also decent. It's amazing that you can enjoy this quality at a chain restaurant. It was definitely worth the price. The lunch comes with a free large serving option, but I recommend sticking with the regular size for a better balance with the toppings!

I used it for a reception. It said 2 1F, so I thought it was on the 21st floor, but it was actually on the 1st floor of Floor 2. Be careful as you cannot see the night view. The drinks for the all-you-can-drink service come out slowly. The food is delicious. I thought it was a private room, but the upper floor was open, so the neighboring voices echoed loudly, which was disappointing. It's not a good restaurant to use for receptions. The cost performance is not good at 10,000 yen including all-you-can-drink.

I visited Imaiya Honpo in Shinagawa. The quality of each skewer is very high, very satisfying to eat, and quite reasonable, making it a highly recommended restaurant with great cost performance. It is a wonderful place suitable for drinking parties and entertaining guests, with a comfortable atmosphere.

We used it for a small company gathering. Imaiya has a great atmosphere with private rooms available. They have several locations in Tokyo, and the Shinagawa branch is located on the first floor of Grand Passage 2 near Konan exit. The course menu mainly consists of grilled skewers, each with a generous portion and elegant flavor. It's a recommended choice for those looking for a slightly upscale dining experience compared to typical chain restaurants. Thank you for the meal. Visit date: April 14, 2023.

It's a very delicious and favorite restaurant for me. I went to Shinagawa for the first time, but I often went to Ebisu and Roppongi!! The aburi sushi was delicious as always. The store was spacious and clean, so I want to go there again. However, there was a staff member who was eager to clear the plates after we finished eating, which made me a little uncomfortable. I wish they would leave us alone a little longer since we were in a private room.

You can enjoy delicious food and drinks slowly in a private room or at the counter as a break for the day. It is especially recommended for women to go together. The way the yakitori is grilled and its taste go well with alcohol. It's a favorite restaurant of mine.

I always see a line here. Around 11:50 am, I wondered if there was no line, so I went to check it out. There was only one group of customers ahead of me, so I decided to wait in line. It took about 10 minutes until I entered the restaurant. By the time I entered, there were about 5 groups waiting. Although I couldn't see the inside of the restaurant from the entrance, the interior was spacious. They seemed to guide solo customers to 2-seater tables, and groups of two or more to 4-seater tables. I ordered their famous Half-cooked and creamy Hinai-Jidori chicken oyakodon for 1300 yen. It took 10 minutes to arrive. This oyakodon uses charcoal-grilled chicken, giving it a yakitori-like flavor. The egg was indeed creamy, but I wish there was more chicken. Considering the high price of the oyakodon, the side dishes, pickles, and miso soup were all elegant and delicious. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was calm, and the staff were polite. Overall, it was a relaxing dining experience.

I happened to find this restaurant in Shinagawa and was immediately impressed by the elaborate Japanese-style interior. The kiritampo hot pot warmed me up from the inside out, helping me get through the cold winter. If you're ever in Shinagawa and unsure of where to eat, definitely give this place a try!

Had lunch at Shinagawa Grand Passage. Ordered the Half-cooked Creamy Oyakodon 'Salt' (1,300 yen). They used to include a drink with the meal, but it's no longer available. I've tried most of the varieties, but the salt flavor is the most delicious. It's just the right amount when I ask for a smaller portion of rice.

Summer this year has made it difficult to gather due to the rapid increase in coronavirus cases. That's why I found a private room at Shinagawa Station, Shinagawa Imaiya Honten. Located in the Grand Passage on the 1st floor of NBF Shinagawa Tower, connected along the roof from the Minami Exit of Shinagawa Station, this restaurant has passed a rigorous screening of approximately 100 items to bring out the maximum deliciousness of the ingredients through their grilling techniques. Each skewer is grilled with soul and dedication, following the spirit of "one skewer, one soul". The restaurant offers complete private rooms, making it convenient for drinking parties. I immediately raised a toast with beer. The August course menu includes a variety of dishes featuring Hichinai Jidori chicken. The grilled skewers were delicious, especially the negima skewer with just the right amount of rareness to preserve the chicken's flavor. The roast chicken breast and skin skewer could have had a bit more crispy texture on the skin, but overall, the food was satisfying. It was a great find and I am grateful for discovering this excellent restaurant.

It was a delicious and enjoyable time. Shinagawa, a place I haven't been to in a while... The restaurant is located on the first floor of Gran Passage 2, a little away from the station. Shinagawa Imaiya Honten is a new and clean izakaya specializing in yakitori with private rooms, focusing on Hinai-jidori chicken from Akita prefecture. This time, after a long time... maybe for the first time during the COVID-19 pandemic... or perhaps it was done in the early days? Well, it had been a while for sure, and it was bound to be lively. In times like these, having a private room is always nice, so I'm grateful to the organizer. We started with draft beer, which was refreshing as my throat was dry. And then came the various dishes. On this day, we had the Yakitori "Tsuki" course - Enjoying Hinai-jidori chicken. The menu was as follows (from Tabelog): [Appetizer] 2 types of appetizers [Cold dish] Seasonal lettuce salad [Grilled dish] Hinai-jidori chicken negima skewer [Grilled dish] Hinai-jidori chicken breast and skin wrapped skewer [Grilled dish] Hinai-jidori chicken gizzard skewer [Grilled dish] Hinai-jidori chicken hand-kneaded tsukune skewer [Special dish] Hinai-jidori chicken thigh meat seared roast - Tosaden [Chopsticks rest] Raw yuba tofu - Delicious broth soy milk [Fried dish] Hinai-jidori chicken spicy fried wing tips [Grilled dish] Hinai-jidori chicken breast meat roast [Grilled dish] Grilled green pepper [Finishing dish] Chicken broth egg rice soup We started with the appetizers. They were nice to nibble on before the main dishes started. The salad was also delicious. And then came the various yakitori. The Hinai-jidori chicken yakitori had a good volume and each skewer was satisfying! Truly worthy of Hinai-jidori chicken! After beer, we moved on to sake. They had a variety of local sakes available. I tried different kinds, but for something rare, I ordered the Shinsei, a sake that is hard to come by. Since we were enjoying Akita's Hinai-jidori chicken, I wanted to pair it with Akita sake... hence the Shinsei! No complaints there! The dishes continued, and of course, we were having a great time, getting a bit tipsy. Finally, we ended with the rice soup. It was a long-awaited drinking party with everyone, a great restaurant, and a satisfying time. Thank you for the meal.

The chicken nanban set meal was delicious with juicy and generous chicken. I definitely want to come back for this taste. The staff inside the restaurant were considerate and provided pleasant service. However, the cashier at the entrance had a terrible attitude, seeming like they didn't want any customers. The service at the entrance during both entry and payment was the worst.

I visited Imaiya main store in Shinagawa. The quality of each skewer dish is very high, satisfying to eat, and quite reasonable in terms of cost, making it a highly recommended restaurant with great value for money. It is a wonderful place suitable for drinking parties and entertaining, with a comfortable atmosphere.

I visited Imaiya, a high-end yakitori restaurant near Shinagawa Station, for a 2-hour all-you-can-drink plan. The course included various dishes such as appetizers, salads, grilled chicken skewers, fried chicken wings, roasted chicken breast, grilled shishito peppers, and chicken and egg rice porridge. The food was delicious, especially the hand-kneaded chicken meatballs. The all-you-can-drink menu included beer, whiskey highballs, wine, sours, cocktails, fruit liquor, shochu, sake, and soft drinks. The service was good, although there was a slight mishap with the pricing due to a part-time staff member. Overall, it was a satisfying experience and I would consider returning for another occasion.

The Oyakodon with spicy sauce made with domestic chicken costs 1300 yen. Besides the Oyakodon, it also comes with a miso soup filled with ingredients, pickles, boiled vegetables, and a drink for 1300 yen, which is reasonable considering the location. There are three types of Oyakodon available - regular, salted, and spicy. I couldn't decide between the regular and spicy, so I chose the spicy thinking it wouldn't be too hot. However, it turned out to be surprisingly spicy. It wasn't extremely spicy to the point where you couldn't taste the flavor, but it was a stimulating Oyakodon. The only complaint I have is that the meat was a bit tough, so I wished it was juicier.

I visited for the first time. The restaurant had a luxurious atmosphere, and I was guided to a private room. We had a course menu with all-you-can-drink. I was so focused on eating that I forgot to take a picture of the first few dishes, but the yakitori was delicious and made with great care. The drinks for all-you-can-drink were also well-selected, and I didn't feel like they were cutting corners just because it was all-you-can-drink.

Yakitori and Mizutaki course in a quiet and luxurious atmosphere, with very polite staff. I am always impressed. The yakitori was delicious, and the asparagus skewers were especially tasty that day. The Mizutaki was just the right amount, and I was able to eat until full. I will definitely come back again.

I can enjoy delicious yakitori and sukiyaki at my favorite "Imaiya" restaurant. Usually, I go to Ebisu, but today I went to Shinagawa after work. This place serves the ultimate yakitori made from Hinai-jidori, a rare breed of chicken, and it is worth the price. Today, I felt like indulging in delicious food, so we shared one skewer for two people and enjoyed a variety of skewers and collagen-rich sukiyaki. We indulged in the ultimate grilled skewers: white liver, breast and skin, chicken tenderloin with plum from Kishu, skin, and green onion. The favorite ones were the white liver and the breast and skin skewers. The chicken tenderloin was also a must-try. The sukiyaki pot with white broth was rich and delicious. We first enjoyed the collagen-rich soup, then the simple salted meat, and finally the fluffy porridge made by the staff. Other dishes we tried included chicken ham, pickled pumpkin, seasonal lettuce salad, tofu, sashimi platter, edamame, bamboo shoot tempura, and more. Delicious food truly brings happiness.
