I had been curious about Yakiniku Ichiban for a while. The drink bar is self-service, and you order from a touch panel menu. I ordered the all-you-can-eat lunch with beef kalbi. It's the cheapest all-you-can-eat course with a drink bar. The lunch is affordable, so there aren't many meat options, and you can't really choose side dishes. The Chorogi salad was delicious, but the portion was small, so I ordered some Sangchu to go with the meat today! The yakiniku sauce was also delicious. I found a fruit mix, so I added ginger ale to make a fruit punch. It was nostalgic and delicious. The ice cocoa with soft serve, chocolate chips, and nuts cup doesn't have many ingredients, so you can mix it with the meat and make various combinations. However, it feels like a waste. There wasn't much of a lively atmosphere typical of a yakiniku restaurant, and there was no one to greet you when you entered. You just sit at a table indicated by the touch panel, order, and eat. The restaurant was quiet, and it felt like something was missing. It's a shame because it's affordable and you can eat a lot.

This is a revisit. The menu has changed a lot from the last time, when there was a Samgyeopsal series at the Korean Fair. This time, I chose the 54-item all-you-can-eat menu for 1958 yen, which included: Kalbi (4 servings), Garlic Kalbi (2 servings), Pork Kalbi (2 servings), Spicy Kalbi (2 servings), Rice, Kimchi, Cucumber, and Udon noodles. I ate until I was full! I overate and couldn't even manage to eat the ice cream. The Kalbi was thick and not too fatty. Sometimes at all-you-can-eat restaurants, the Kalbi can be 70% fat, but here it was consistently good. As I felt last time, there were many foreign guests, especially those related to the US military. Sometimes, I feel like I'm abroad because English is spoken a lot! And they eat a lot more than me, so I'm really impressed. Thank you for the meal.

I visited "Jukusei Yakiniku Ichiban" with my colleagues for lunch, which I occasionally use. When we entered the restaurant, a friendly staff member guided us to our table. (This restaurant always seems to have many beautiful female staff members, haha) The menu changed in February, and the previous 1400 yen option was replaced with a new menu called "[Weekday Limited] Recommended Beef Yakiniku All-You-Can-Eat Lunch for 1,780 yen (including tax 1,958 yen)." Now, you can also enjoy Samgyupsal with the new menu. The rest of the menu remains the same as before. We placed our order using the touch panel on the table. We enjoyed plenty of meat and finished with soft serve ice cream and Shiratama Anmitsu. I was as full as before, but it's a shame that the price increased from 1400 yen to 1958 yen. It now exceeds my lunch budget significantly... I might not visit as often in the future. Thank you for the meal.

I visited for lunch on a regular day. The lunch buffet includes a drink bar and dessert bar for 1480 yen excluding tax. You can also order a premium meat such as aged kalbi for an additional 200 yen excluding tax. While the drink bar and dessert bar are self-service, the food is served to your table in an order buffet style. Normally, elementary school students pay half the adult price, but right now elementary school students only pay 300 yen excluding tax! This is a great deal!

Yakiniku eat-all-you-can chain Ichiban Akishima store on weekends nights the parking lot is full with plenty of spaces. Families visit with table seats and also sunken kotatsu-style seating, catering to a wide range of customers from couples to families to parties. There are also foreign groups here and there, probably due to the location. Orders are made through a touch panel, which supports four languages, making it popular among foreigners. The eat-all-you-can options range from 2480 yen to 3980 yen. The premium option at 3980 yen is highly recommended. Elementary school students pay half price, and preschoolers eat for free! The drink bar costs 200 yen, and with an online coupon, the premium option had a 400 yen discount. I ended up eating a lot of Sata-gyu beef kalbi and thick-cut tongue salt, they were so delicious that I kept going back for more without realizing it... The marinated dishes, digital kalbi, kainomi, lamp steak, etc., were also great. I couldn't help but laugh at the thickness of the meat slices. However, the regular course options like kalbi and hormone had a slight smell or were tough, so I ended up only ordering one serving each of Sata-gyu and thick-cut tongue salt, and other rare cuts. When you order a course from the staff at the beginning, the rest can be ordered through the touch panel, and the food is served quickly without waiting more than 5 minutes, which is stress-free. The net replacement, plates, etc., are all done through the touch panel, and the service is fast, even though there seemed to be many young part-time staff. The clay pot rice (about 3 bowls worth) was plump and shiny, very delicious. It was too much for two adults, but my partner enjoyed it so much that they almost finished it alone. The cold noodles and stone bibimbap were served in half portions and were safe choices. The fried foods that I couldn't help but order were potatoes, calamari, chicken nanban, and others. There were several types of salads, seafood, kimchi, namul, buttered potatoes, corn, etc., and the children were satisfied with the lineup. What's more, the dessert bar had about 10 types of ice cream, shaved ice, waffles, cotton candy, and the children were thrilled. All of this was free for preschoolers, which was wonderful. I went to the eat-all-you-can yakiniku without expecting much, but unexpectedly, I was able to eat plenty of delicious meat and left satisfied. The total bill, including the drink bar, was 4500 yen per adult. Considering that the children were free, for a family of four, it was cheaper than a mediocre family restaurant. If you think about the quality of the meat that can only be eaten in the premium option, it's 2,000 to 3,000 yen cheaper than going to a regular yakiniku restaurant. If I were to eat at Yakiniku Ichiban again, I would definitely go for the premium option.

It's a favorite restaurant that is both cheap and delicious. The quality of the meat is just as good as at ○kaku, and it's also reasonably priced! It's always empty whenever I go, which is convenient, but I would be upset if it closed unexpectedly. It's in a slightly inconvenient location without a car, so it's a shame that I can't go often.

The harami steak and pot-roasted dishes were all delicious. However, it was difficult to eat without scissors, which I had requested but never received. They should make sure to have them available.

The order took a long time to arrive and the meat was tough.

In January, a safety prayer is held every year to pray for workplace and traffic safety at the beginning of the new year. On that day, we all go out for lunch together, and every year the young people who love to eat a lot choose yakiniku. We usually open around 11:00, and the nearby options are "Anrakutei" or "Jukusei Yakiniku Ichiban." This time, we decided to come here again following last year's tradition. The all-you-can-eat lunch set is 1490 yen including tax, and you can eat for 100 minutes. You can enjoy unlimited meat, rice, drinks, and desserts. The rice here comes in a pot with about three servings, but the young people pile it up like in a manga, so they go through it quickly. They really eat a lot... impressive!

I visited "Jukusei Yakiniku Ichiban," which used to be called "Yakiniku Kurabu Ichiban" before. It was my second visit since the previous restaurant's lunch time. I heard it had closed down, so I was surprised when a colleague told me it was still open. The menu hadn't changed much, and although the lunch buffet price had gone up a bit to 1380 yen (excluding tax) on weekdays, the quality of the meat, kamameshi rice, etc. remained the same. So, I decided to go for the 100-minute all-you-can-eat option with drink bar and dessert bar included. I let a younger colleague handle the ordering, and they did a good job. There was something called aged kalbi, but my unsophisticated palate couldn't really tell the difference. Overall, it was a decent meal at Manpuku. It seems to be a restaurant under the Zensho HD group, and if you want to eat plenty of yakiniku, I recommend going for the weekday lunch. The kamameshi rice was delicious.
