I went to Jiro Maru after a long time. I used to go to the shop in Ikebukuro often, but since it closed down, I could only go occasionally. The meat is served one piece at a time, so you can savor it properly. The side dishes are also nice. I will definitely go again.

I visited towards the end of lunchtime. It was raining heavily and late in the day, so there was only one customer. As the name suggests, it is a standing-style restaurant. I ordered the Assorted Black Wagyu Beef (6 types) for 1760 yen and the Beef Tongue (3 types). The meat was quite delicious, and the cost performance was high. I would like to use it again as a quick yakiniku lunch option.

There are several types of lunch yakiniku set menus available, ranging from 1000 yen to 2000 yen. They typically come with bean sprout namul, rice, soup, oolong tea, and meat. It's nice that there is a lot of lean meat in the lunch yakiniku menu. The Japanese lean beef set costs 1210 yen (5 slices). Although there is sauce and lemon, I always eat it with lemon. Oh, it's delicious. I really like this place! Such a hidden gem!

Recently, I finally tried the lunch menu that I had been curious about for a long time. It's located in front of "Shibuya Mark City EAST", next to "Yokohama Family Ramen Samurai". On the 2nd floor, there is "Homemade Noodle Specialty Pasta". I made my debut at "Standing Yakiniku Jiro Maru Shibuya Store"!! Standing Yakiniku~. In front of me, there were beautifully displayed chunks of meat by cut. This time, it's not beef. I was so thirsty, so they brought me both oolong tea and cold water. Genghis Khan Set Menu 150g of Aged Belted Harami from Obihiro 990 yen Namul with salted bean sprouts. Soup with salt and pepper. Thinly sliced green onions and seaweed. Delicious rice with standing grains. And guess what, the lamb is domestic!! Marinated in homemade sauce. Topped with thinly sliced onions. Self-grilled on a roaster. Half lightly grilled, half well-done. Even when grilled strongly, it doesn't become tough and has a nice chewy texture. The lamb's unique taste is not noticeable, it's delicious~. The fruity sweet sauce goes well with it. I mix it with rice and eat at a fast pace. Genghis Khan made with Obihiro lamb loin. It uses unevenly cut scraps, so it can be offered at a very reasonable price. Of course, there may also be considerations for sourcing. They also offer individual items, so I plan to stop by for a casual drink next time. ※ Blog post is here. ↓ ↓ https://ameblo.jp/kuishinbou33/entry-12755586748.html

On a Sunday in Shibuya, I was thinking about where to have lunch when I remembered a place called Jiro Maru that I had seen before. It used to have long lines because it was cheap and delicious. I ended up spending over 10,000 yen last time, so I hadn't visited since. It turns out they opened a branch in Shibuya. I was surprised to see that they offered a set meal for only 800 yen. I ordered some extra meat and filled up my stomach. If the prices were this reasonable before, I would have gone more often. It was delicious.

You can easily enjoy solo yakiniku at this standing eatery where you can try various cuts of meat at a reasonable price. The atmosphere is welcoming and perfect for lunch. The large portion kalbi set meal comes with a bottle of beer as a companion. The set meal includes rice, namul, oxtail soup, and black oolong tea. You can also add extra cuts of meat. The spacious layout makes it a comfortable place to dine. Overall, it's a delicious restaurant to visit.

I've always been curious about this standing-style solo yakiniku restaurant! I wonder if it has always been here? I mustered up the courage to go in. It's a counter-only setup with a small grill for each person. In the showcase, the beautifully cut chunks of meat are neatly arranged by type, just like at a sushi restaurant. I ordered the recommended Miyazaki A4 rank premium kalbi set for 1650 yen. The set comes with bean sprout namul, rice, soup, and oolong tea. The meat for today was 3 slices of kalbi and 2 slices of sirloin. The kalbi was delicious! The balance of fat and meat was perfect. Good quality meat doesn't feel heavy on the stomach and has a great natural flavor. The sirloin, on the other hand, looked fatty, but it wasn't greasy at all. The soup had seaweed, leek, and bits of beef, and it was not your average seaweed soup. It had a great taste. I wish I could have more of it. If possible, I would love to mix the rice with this soup and make a porridge to eat. I definitely want to come back to this yakiniku restaurant. Highly recommended!

I occasionally visit Jiro Maru in Yokohama Noge, but Shibuya was my first time. It is located close to the Inokashira Line. You can order high-quality meat by the piece and eat it standing up. The recommended cuts and origins of the meat vary depending on the day, offering a different experience from Noge. The cuts are divided into detailed parts, such as tongue tip and tongue base, and the staff will recommend the best cuts of the day. It's more about providing cuts of meat rather than traditional yakiniku, with the staff teaching you how to cook each type of meat. The seasoning is up to you, using the sauces and salts provided in front of you, which I found a bit lacking.

Located at the foot of Mark City in Shibuya, I visited this place when it first opened and remember how crowded it was. However, it seems to have calmed down now. The interior consists of only a counter, and the system of ordering one piece at a time is impressive. It feels like a good deal. I ordered the recommended dish of the day and harami, and enjoyed them while being taught how to cook them. The cost performance is quite good, although it's hard to say since you order one piece at a time (laughs). I wish there was a little more horumon, but overall, it was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

When both of my children left home and started working, my husband and I realized that we wouldn't have the opportunity to have yakiniku together anymore. So, I searched online for a standing yakiniku counter restaurant where I could go alone. I found a place where you can order high-quality meat by the piece, which seemed perfect for dining solo. As always, the staff asked me if it was my first time there, so this time I said it was my fourth visit. I started with a bottle of beer and then began ordering a variety of meats and side dishes while enjoying some drinks. I ordered a bottle of beer, two shochu highballs, kimchi, meat and potato salad, beef tripe, tongue base, honeycomb tripe, beef heart, beef tendon, crunchy cartilage, lamb, pork belly, tongue tip, cow stomach, brisket, belly plate, skirt meat, and shoulder triangle, totaling around 4000 yen for 15 meat items and 2 side dishes. It's a great place to dine alone, but it also caters to couples and foreigners (English menu available). The restaurant only has about 7 seats, so it's best to choose your timing wisely.

I used my flextime rights to quickly finish work and headed over here. The prices are cheap and the food is delicious! Adding a Hoppy set to the menu has increased the number of customers. It seems a bit harder to get a seat now compared to before, but as long as they keep it up, it's all good. This time, I had 3 slices of beef tendon for 90 yen, 1 cow's stomach for 50 yen, 1 spicy dish for 80 yen, 2 cow's brains for 100 yen, 2 slices of beef tendon for 60 yen, 2 pieces of beef tongue for 100 yen, a Hoppy set for 450 yen, and 2 medium beers for 400 yen. I have another place to go to next, so I'll save the rest for later!

"Can you go to a yakiniku restaurant alone?" When two solo diners are trying to assess each other's skills, the question of whether they can go to a yakiniku restaurant alone becomes a litmus test. Even if someone has experience dining alone, yakiniku restaurants can be a bit daunting for some. Being taken care of by the yakiniku expert, before you know it, there are perfectly cooked meat pieces on your plate as if an automatic feeding system. Someone might carelessly pile a mountain of meat on the grill and then get distracted by a conversation, leaving the meat pieces burnt. Or your perfectly cooked meat might be snatched away by someone else. Dining at a yakiniku restaurant with others can be stressful. Going alone allows you to enjoy the perfect timing and cooking of your favorite meat stress-free. Despite this, there is often a resistance to dining alone at a yakiniku restaurant, perhaps due to the typical setup of tables for four people. That's where places like this come in, a paradise for solo diners. Standing with one grill per person, you can order meat by the piece and cook it quickly or slowly. When I visited, about 80% of the customers were women, and half of them were dining alone, making it truly a gateway to solo yakiniku dining. I ordered: - Pickled fresh ginger - Hot peppers - Chicken bow - Beef tongue - Beef tendon - Beef harami There were no inconveniences or complaints about eating meat. If you're used to standing sushi restaurants, the system is similar. However, unlike sushi, meat doesn't fill you up as much, so if you get carried away with ordering, it could end up being quite expensive... Well, whether solo yakiniku is fun is a different story. Yakiniku is more about having fun than enjoying the taste. But what I realized after coming here is that having a beer alone while indulging in grilled meat is not a bad way to spend time. Eating what you want without worrying about anyone else, enjoying it the way you like. That sense of freedom is something, isn't it? Once you experience this sense of freedom, there may be no turning back (laughs).

I don't go to Shibuya as often anymore, but today we decided to meet up there because it's easy for everyone to get to. Oh wait, I feel like having a drink... Alright! I have some time, so let's have a beer! We ended up at this place! There were a few solo customers. Actually, the interior is cozy and nice because it's small. You can order small portions by different cuts, so it's perfect for just having one drink. Cheers!

Standing eat yakiniku where you can order by the slice. Prices range from 30 yen for horumon to 300 yen for A5 wagyu. It's fun to try different cuts and compare flavors. The standing format makes it easy to pop in casually. You can enjoy yakiniku while waiting for about 15 minutes with people waiting in line. lol

There are many standing bar restaurants, but there are people who come up with interesting ideas. This was a shop that I had been curious about for a while. It was the first time I had ever felt such a difference in meat at a yakiniku restaurant! You can order just one slice of meat to grill, perfect for enjoying with a beer! There are many solo customers, and because it's standing, the turnover rate is good. You end up ordering delicious meat without realizing it, so I think the average customer spending is good. It's a great place for the first stop or for a final drink! I would like to visit again!

The cost performance of the meat was top class. It is recommended for when you want to have a quick drink as it is a stand-up style. It may be difficult to rate it on the same ⭐️ scale as sit-down restaurants, but I gave it a 3.5 for being above average in taste. I was surprised to see many solo female customers, but it shows that the atmosphere is welcoming and left a good impression.

I went to the first "Tachikui Yakiniku Jiro Maru Shibuya" for the first time. It is a standing yakiniku restaurant with menu starting from 30 yen per piece. They are open until 5 am from Monday to Saturday, and they only use meat purchased on the same day. I thought standing and eating would be tough, but I didn't mind it while laughing and eating with my companion. The interior is narrow, like a sushi restaurant, but the cost performance, meat, and customer service were all good. Thank you for the meal - Uwamisuji A4, Tanmoto Bara It's a board of Tochigi Prefecture A5, beef Harami Tan, tongue tip, guts, core, lettuce, Super Dry medium bottle, kimchi.

Shibuya. A standing yakiniku restaurant located near the escalator after exiting the Keio Line ticket gate. It's a small place where you stand to eat, with no chairs available. About 10 people can enter at a time. Many first-time customers visit, and the staff explain the system each time, although it's a bit fast-paced and hard to understand. The food is served quickly, and diners eat swiftly as well. It's like fast-food yakiniku. The system is simple: first, choose a drink. You can order A to S rank meat from the kitchen individually, or order from the menu on the back wall by the serving (2 pieces). When grilling the meat, place it between the flames, not directly on them. Place empty plates on the counter. You can order more dishes whenever you want. Prices for different cuts of meat are listed, and the selection changes daily. Alcoholic beverages are also available. The brisket was the first dish we tried. It was a good size and thickness for the price, and had a nice color. You grill the meat yourself on a grill. Although it would be even better on a charcoal grill, the meat was delicious. It had a light and satisfying taste, with good fat content. After eating, you feel light in the stomach. Overall, all the dishes were good, and you can't go wrong with any choice. The meat is lightly seasoned to preserve its flavor, so adding sauce or salt at the table won't change the taste. The "crispy" had a definite crunchiness. The "guts core" had a melt-in-your-mouth texture with good chewiness. No unpleasant smell. The tongue had a rich fatty flavor. It was chewy and tender. The "nipple" had a bouncy texture and rich fat content, but it was delicious. The chicken was tender and had a pudding-like texture. The pork belly had a firm texture and a rich flavor. The beef tendon was soft and melted in the mouth. The beef skirt was lean with a tender texture. The beef hock was healthy and had a good texture. The special beef marbling had a rich texture and flavor. It's a place where you can have a quick meal and try a variety of dishes, so I'd like to visit again.

This Jiro Maru offers meat by the piece, with two pieces per order for hormone-style meat. The recommended meat here is brisket, which is a cut from the base of the leg. It has a moderate amount of marbling, with a meaty and flavorful taste that allows you to enjoy both lean and fatty parts in one piece. The meat in the photo is called chire, which is a part of the pancreas. It has a rich flavor like liver and a crunchy texture like gizzard. Depending on how you drink and eat it, you can easily eat 1000 calories.

I went to a restaurant that I had been curious about with a friend. We were able to order one slice of each type of meat, so it was really fun to try different kinds. I enjoyed trying new types of meat, including some more expensive ones, and it was delicious to be able to eat them in small portions. It's a standing yakiniku restaurant, so it's not ideal for a leisurely meal, but I really liked being able to try a variety of meats. I'll definitely go again!
