Visited on a Sunday afternoon with a reservation. The restaurant was quite busy during lunchtime. Ordered both the course menu and a la carte items. The tongue was surprisingly thick, tender, and flavorful. Quite delicious. The harami salt was a unique choice, but it had a good umami flavor and was tasty. The kalbi had some chewy parts but the flavor was delicious. The upper kalbi was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. All the hormone dishes were tasty as well. Wanted to order the Chateaubriand which was priced around 2500 yen, but unfortunately, they were out of it. Instead, I ordered the Kobe beef steak for just over 2000 yen. It came in a nice portion, looked great, and could be enjoyed rare, which was delicious. It was all about the salt, enhancing the flavor of the meat. It was affordable and of high quality. The service was also excellent. Thank you for the delicious meal.

I visited this restaurant for the first time and was surprised by the sturdy entrance. The inside of the restaurant is also clean, so the smell shouldn't be too bothersome during lunchtime. I chose the most simple Kalbi lunch with the option to add a buffet for an additional 600 yen. The buffet includes rice, soup, salad, namul, kimchi, fruit punch, and more, but the highlights are the curry with plenty of wagyu beef and the tender stewed meat that is all-you-can-eat - it was pure bliss. I got greedy and ate a lot. The curry has a rich flavor and doesn't taste like store-bought curry roux. You can tell it's made with care. The kimchi is also delicious. I definitely want to visit again. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I made a reservation for Saturday or Sunday at 7:00 pm and was seated right away. The 8 kinds of assorted meats (top tongue salt, marbled kalbi, sasami, tomosankaku, kameno kou, harami, shinsin, Matsusaka beef kalbi) were amazing. The meat was beautifully prepared, even the fat was delicious! There are other places with tasty sauces, but when I want to savor the meat, this is my favorite spot. The side dishes like Comtangkuppa and kimchi were also delicious.

When I went to Asakusa, I visited a yakiniku restaurant that I often use for lunch. This time, I made a reservation for the first time. The restaurant opens at 12:00, and there were about 4 groups waiting before opening. It seems quite popular. One of the best things about this place is the buffet that you can add to your lunch for an additional fee. Buffet set ← 600 yen extra, you should definitely add this ❤️ In the past, it used to be included in the lunch price, but now it seems to be an additional fee (´□`;三;´□`) Now you can choose the type of meat and add a buffet set for an extra fee of 600 yen. The highly recommended dish is the black curry made with Matsusaka beef offcuts. [Specialty! Matsusaka beef curry] The curry here is really delicious ❤️ It's full of meat fibers, rich in flavor, and incredibly tasty (≧▽≦) It's so delicious that it could probably be sold as a product on its own, and it's enough to fill you up. We joked that if this curry was served at a hotel, it would probably cost around 2500 yen (laughs) The white cabbage kimchi is also delicious (≧▽≦) You can't stop eating the rice (laughs) The buffet set includes: white cabbage kimchi, bean sprout namul, spinach namul, chapchae, meat stew, salad (leaves), soup, rice, dessert (almond jelly), specialty Matsusaka beef curry, and a soft drink bar. This time we had: - Matsusaka beef supreme kalbi lunch for 2300 yen with a buffet set for 600 yen and additional meat for 850 yen - Harami lunch for 1350 yen with a buffet set for 600 yen and additional meat for 650 yen We shared the meat. Orders are placed using a tablet. The staff brings the meat to your table. The buffet is self-service using tongs. The meat, even the cheaper ones, are delicious, so you can consider the buffet as the main attraction. Of course, the meat is also good because it's a yakiniku restaurant. However, no matter how many times I go, the highlight for me is the buffet set. The staff at the restaurant are also very kind. The seating is very spacious with large sofa seats in box booths, which is nice. I will definitely visit again! Thank you for the meal.

I made a reservation the day before at a restaurant in Asakusa to avoid becoming a lunch refugee. The seats were spacious and they served lunch even on holidays, which was convenient for families with children. The staff were very polite. I ordered ⚫︎ Kalbi set meal for 1000 yen ⚫︎ Buffet & all-you-can-drink soft drinks for 600 yen ⚫︎ There was also a beer buffet. The curry was rich and even the children could eat it, and there were vegetables, so the balance was good. However, since everyone ordered the Kalbi set meal, it felt a bit greasy... I regret not ordering different items to enjoy a variety of flavors due to my age. The Kalbi was tender and satisfying to eat.

Located just a 1-minute walk from TX Asakusa Station A1 exit, this restaurant offers great access. I ordered the Gen Karubi lunch set with extra large portions + buffet set, and shared the beef tongue, harami, and negi with a friend. The buffet set includes unlimited vegetables, kimchi, chapchae, hearty soup, and special curry. It even comes with a drink bar at an unbeatable price! And everything is delicious! The Gen Karubi lunch for 1000 yen exceeded my expectations, with well-marbled meat that was so tasty with rice. I added extra for 500 yen. The premium raw beef tongue for 1500 yen was incredibly tender, cut smoothly with each bite, and had a pleasant chewiness. It had no hint of odor, allowing me to savor the high-quality meat. I will definitely be returning. I was extremely satisfied with the deliciousness and service that exceeded the price!

In front of the Rocks, there is a beautiful yakiniku restaurant. I was drawn in by the lunch special for 1000 yen and the satisfaction exceeded the price! I plan to come back and enjoy it at a more leisurely pace next time. - Order: - Kalbi Lunch: 1000 yen The meat is really good! So delicious! The fact that you can have unlimited rice and soup refills is great, but when the meat is delicious, the satisfaction level goes up instantly. You can add a drink bar set for +250 yen. If you opt for the side menu all-you-can-eat buffet set, it's +550 yen. Both are good deals. - Miscellaneous: The restaurant is known for buying a whole A5-grade black wagyu cow and serving it. Not only is the food delicious and reasonably priced, but the restaurant is also spacious and clean, making me want to come back again. The staff's explanations were also polite.

My colleague wanted to eat yakiniku, so I searched on Tabelog. It was difficult to make a reservation at popular restaurants in the Asakusa area during the pandemic, but I managed to secure one here. We visited for the first time at 7:00 PM on a Friday. When we arrived at the restaurant, there was a sign at the entrance saying that they were fully booked with reservations. The interior of the restaurant was spacious and clean. We placed our order using a touch panel. We decided to order the 8 types of assorted meats, which were very delicious. We also ordered the restaurant's specialty dish, the Negi Mori Nametan, which was topped with an abundance of two types of green onions. We wrap this in the meat and eat it in a steamed state, and it was so delicious that we ended up ordering seconds. The regular kalbi and loin were also tasty, and I thought I had found a reasonably priced restaurant. If I have the opportunity to eat yakiniku in Asakusa again, I would be happy to come back. Thank you for the meal.

I visited "Ittoubai Yakiniku Gen" located a 5-minute walk from Ueno Station on a weekday (Wednesday) around 6:00 pm. - Top-grade tongue (¥1,200 pic1) - Assorted 6 cuts (¥1,800 pic2) - Black Wagyu kalbi (¥800→¥500 pic3) - Today's special rare thick cut (¥2,400 pic4) - Black Wagyu classic yukhoe (¥1,600→¥1,000 pic5) I will introduce the carefully selected items. - Top-grade tongue: The flavor is rich and there is no unpleasant odor. The texture of the tongue is amazing. - Assorted 6 cuts: A luxurious assortment of selected cuts for the day. Highly recommended are the zabuton and top-grade tongue. - Black Wagyu kalbi: Very tender with a sweet richness of fat. Easy to eat even for those who are not fond of kalbi. - Today's special rare thick cut: Today's special is Ichibo. It has a good elasticity and elegant fat. A must-order item. The overall cost performance is excellent. The quality of the meat is top-notch and the prices are very reasonable. The staff's service is polite and pleasant. They are currently having a grand opening sale, offering even lower prices than usual. Don't miss this opportunity! Thank you for the delicious meal.

I used it for lunch. I ordered the Harami and Nakaochi Kalbi lunch, so the meat quality was average. It would be nice if they served the same quality of meat for lunch as they do for dinner. That way, it's a bit difficult to order something of the same quality for lunch. I'm not sure if I want to spend that much for lunch. I haven't been to dinner yet, so I'll have to try it first.

There was a one-person yakiniku restaurant on a bustling street in Asakusa that I happened to stumble upon. I decided to go in and ordered the Harami lunch with a buffet included. It cost around 1850 yen, which was quite reasonable considering it came with a drink bar and salad bar. My friend went for the most standard option, the Gyu lunch, which had a strong marbling. As for me, I couldn't handle it anymore! But I enjoyed watching my friend happily eating away. The Harami was just right! And the curry was surprisingly delicious. It was quite thick and had finely chopped ingredients, making it a bit tricky to scoop out. It might be a bit heavy for an all-you-can-eat curry, but it's perfect for those days when you say, "I won't eat anything else tonight!" I left feeling so full! Despite saying "I'm so full, it hurts!" I couldn't help but think about heading to Hoppy Street for a drink afterwards as I made my way to work... *giggle*

I visited this restaurant for lunch for the first time. The staff, all men, were very polite and kind in their service and explanation of the ordering system. The restaurant was spacious and had thorough COVID-19 prevention measures in place. I ordered the Harami lunch for 1,300 yen, the Reimen lunch for 1,000 yen, and the premium beef tongue for 1,600 yen (not part of the lunch menu). The premium beef tongue was absolutely delicious. The Reimen noodles were served with the broth on the side to fully enjoy its delicate and elegant flavor. Despite the lively atmosphere of many restaurants in Asakusa, this restaurant was calm and well-managed. They also accepted payment through PayPay. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

I used it for a company drinking party. In recent years, I had drifted away from yakiniku because beef fat didn't agree with me. But good meat really makes a difference. I had no problem at all and enjoyed it. The portion was just right for an old man. The kimchi was also delicious. The foreigner who went with me also gave it a good review.

The Gen Karubi lunch for 1000 yen plus 550 yen is a shocking deal where you can enjoy A5-ranked premium yakiniku. The meat is so tender that it's surprising. The buffet includes dishes like chapchae and simmered tongue that vary by day, but the quality is high. The curry, in particular, is delicious with luxurious Matsusaka beef. Desserts and drinks are all-you-can-eat, making it a satisfying experience. The restaurant has a luxurious atmosphere with semi-private seating. The spacious sofas allow for a relaxing time. The staff are always smiling and the clean interior makes it a great choice for dates or hanging out with friends. [Business Hours] Mon-Sun, holidays 12:00-22:00 (L.O. 21:30) *Lunch time 12:00-15:00 (L.O. 14:30)

It was a snowy day and I was alone, so I visited a nearby hotel for dinner. Two young female staff members were laughing as they saw the snow piling up on the stairs at the entrance. Despite thinking I wouldn't come back again, I ordered the set menu, which had a small portion but good taste. The owner or manager gave a detailed explanation about their specialty cold noodles, which were delicious. The payment process was also handled politely. I will visit again when I stay nearby. It may be inevitable that the quality of part-time staff is lacking, but I hope for at least the level of a major chain restaurant.

✨Asakusa✨ Located across from Asakusa ROX, this restaurant is easy to find with Don Quijote as a landmark. Menu: Gen Karubi Lunch (900 yen) Overall, the menu is reasonably priced. I tried the classic menu items for the first time. The Karubi is meaty and satisfying to eat. The slightly rich yakiniku sauce goes well with rice. The quality for this price is amazing. If you opt for the buffet set, it comes with a salad bar, drink bar, soup & rice, dessert, and Matsusaka beef curry, making it highly recommended. You can enjoy Matsusaka beef, as well as a variety of other reasonably priced meat options. It's a great place for a hearty meal. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is calm and relaxing, perfect for a leisurely lunch.

Black-haired Wagyu! While taking a walk in Asakusa on my day off, I got hungry so I decided to come to a yakiniku restaurant. Today, they said they had won the champion cow from Yamagata, so I indulged in a comparison of Yamagata beef loin, Matsusaka beef ultimate kalbi, raw tongue tasting, special selection of 6 cuts, and pork belly. The Yamagata beef, as expected from a champion cow, was tender and the fat was sweet and melted in my mouth. The Matsusaka beef kalbi had a strong sweetness in the fat but it wasn't overpowering and melted nicely. The 6 cuts included Matsusaka beef kalbi, brisket, top tongue, skirt steak, inside skirt, and chuck flap, all of which were incredibly delicious. Yakiniku at Ichigekio Yakiniku is definitely the way to go! I look forward to coming back to try the champion cow again!

Saturday, July 2021. 12:30. I heard that there is a buffet available for lunch, which is so popular that there may be a waiting list, so I made a reservation online before visiting. Upon arrival, there were about 3 families waiting, but when I informed the staff about my reservation, they immediately showed me to my table. (I was happy to be seated in a spacious and calm spot by the window!) And I was given a warm towel♡ I was a bit concerned about the negative reviews regarding customer service, but all the staff members were very kind and provided excellent service♡ (They also explained the buffet system in detail!) The interior of the restaurant, with a snack-like structure, had plush black sofas, creating a strangely calming atmosphere that I liked ( ´ ᵕ ` *) There were many families, as well as groups of college boys, elderly salarymen possibly working on their day off, and male and female colleagues, among others. Most people were opting for the buffet lunch, but there were also those who were simply enjoying the à la carte menu with just grilled meat. Here are some excerpts from the lunch menu. (All prices include tax) ****************************** [Value Lunch] 12:00-15:00 (L.O. 14:30) ・Buffet Only 850 yen ・Prime Kalbi Lunch 900 yen Drink Bar Set 1,150 yen Buffet Set 1,450 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +450 yen ・Sirloin Lunch 1,000 yen Drink Bar Set 1,250 yen Buffet Set 1,550 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +450 yen ・Harami Lunch 1,200 yen Drink Bar Set 1,450 yen Buffet Set 1,750 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +450 yen ・Premium Kalbi Lunch 1,600 yen Drink Bar Set 1,850 yen Buffet Set 2,150 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +550 yen ・Premium Sirloin Lunch 1,600 yen Drink Bar Set 1,850 yen Buffet Set 2,150 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +550 yen ・Premium Lean Lunch 1,600 yen Drink Bar Set 1,850 yen Buffet Set 2,150 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +550 yen ・Premium Rare Sirloin Lunch 1,900 yen Drink Bar Set 2,150 yen Buffet Set 2,450 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +650 yen ・Premium Rare Lean Lunch 1,900 yen Drink Bar Set 2,150 yen Buffet Set 2,450 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +650 yen ・Matsusaka Beef Kalbi Lunch 1,600 yen Drink Bar Set 1,850 yen Buffet Set 2,150 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +550 yen ・Matsusaka Beef Supreme Kalbi Lunch 2,200 yen Drink Bar Set 2,450 yen Buffet Set 2,750 yen Extra Meat (1.5x) +750 yen ・Today's Five-Cut Lunch 3,000 yen Drink Bar Set 3,250 yen Buffet Set 3,550 yen ****************************** The 900 yen lunches can be enjoyed with a Drink Bar Set for 1,150 yen or a Buffet Set for 1,450 yen. ・Hearty Pork Belly Grilled Meat Lunch 900 yen ・Stone Bibimbap Lunch 900 yen ・Zundubu Chige Lunch 900 yen ・Cold Noodles Lunch 900 yen ・Spicy Tsukemen Lunch 900 yen You order via tablet, so there are no mistakes in the orders, and it's a great system where you can enjoy the buffet alone without feeling embarrassed! *********************** The buffet includes a salad bar and a drink bar, with dressings (3 types), sunny lettuce, glass noodle salad, beef tendon stew, spinach namul, bean sprout namul, kimchi, fruit punch, drink bar (9 types), Matsusaka beef curry, soup (contents unknown), white rice. "There is also chijimi & tteokbokki at the salad bar" was the information I had, but it may not be available now (perhaps it's only available on weekdays?). The buffet on this day had this content. COVID-19 measures were in place, with alcohol spray on the tables, and a reminder to always wear disposable gloves when taking food from the buffet.

On the final day of my trip, I decided to have lunch at this restaurant that I had chosen in advance. I made a reservation just to be safe and arrived at 12 o'clock when they opened. There wasn't a long line at that time, maybe because of the influence of COVID-19. Everything looked delicious, but I ordered the "Prime Kalbi Lunch" with extra meat (1.5 times) from the buffet set. The buffet set is a fully equipped set for lunch, including rice, soup, Matsusaka beef curry, salad bar, drink bar, and dessert. While I was getting rice, the kalbi arrived and I suddenly got busy. First, the main kalbi, which had an exquisite melt-in-your-mouth texture and was of top-notch quality. It was said to be frosted Japanese beef from Obanazawa City, Yamagata Prefecture. Can they offer such high-quality kalbi at this price? It was truly amazing. However, to come to Tokyo and have meat from Tohoku... Thanks to the extra portion, the lunch had a satisfying amount of food. And the Matsusaka beef curry was outstanding. It had large chunks of meat generously included. Just eating this curry alone made me feel like I got my money's worth. You might think it's strange to have curry at a yakiniku restaurant, but I was really impressed by it. The salad bar didn't have a wide variety, but it was enough for me personally. They replenished it perfectly, so there was never a shortage of salad. The staff were kind and helpful. They kindly asked me to use a new plate with a smile. I only have good impressions of this restaurant. It was a very satisfying lunch to end my trip.

I visited several yakiniku restaurants in Asakusa, but my intended restaurant was closed due to COVID-19, so I decided to go to this restaurant. I arrived at 10 minutes after opening and there were already two people waiting in front. The restaurant is on the second floor, but I found the menu under the stairs and was pleasantly surprised by the prices. We were able to enter right away. It seems they have a buffet, but my friend and I wanted to drink beer, so we opted for a set instead. However, everyone around us ordered the buffet. The set included salad, rice, namul, and soft drinks for 70 minutes of all-you-can-eat and drink. I ordered the usual Asahi beer since we were in Asakusa. We also ordered a set of loin and harami, and a serving of prime kalbi. When the food arrived, we were amazed at how delicious the meat looked. It was beyond our expectations. Another bottle of beer later, we started with the harami, which was so delicious that it made me let out a happy sigh. The loin was also great. We were both surprised by the prime kalbi (800 yen per plate), it looked beautiful and tasted amazing. We were so grateful to the cows for such delicious meat. The cost performance here is excellent! We also ordered liver, which had a unique texture. It was a perfect day for day drinking at this cost-effective restaurant. I will definitely come back next time!

I came here after a long time because this shop has my favorite Makgeolli, Tiger. This is one of the few places in Asakusa where you can find a shop with Tiger. The bean sprout namul was particularly delicious, perfectly cooked and seasoned. The flavor of the miso sauce on the upper mino was also excellent. I wanted to try various dishes, so it would be nice to have a two-variety platter. However, there was a misunderstanding with the staff, and when I asked for a special rare loin and lean meat in a two-variety platter, I received one plate of each, so I ended up eating both. It would have been better if we had confirmed with each other. The cold noodles were also delicious.
