I recently heard about a very premium all-you-can-eat restaurant that is causing a buzz on social media. As someone who is getting older, I had planned to move away from prioritizing quantity over quality when it comes to food, but I am amazed at how high the quality of all-you-can-eat options has become these days! The place is called "Isshintansuke" in Ueno. It's right next to ABAB, so you can easily find it. The inside has a nostalgic atmosphere with cassette stove style, a casual yakiniku restaurant. This restaurant originally offered all-you-can-eat options, but their new "premium all-you-can-eat" is just amazing in terms of value! For 4,980 yen, you get a 120-minute all-you-can-eat experience. Among the 60 items on the menu, only the "premium wagyu fillet" cannot be refilled, but everything else from beef tongue (American), to A4 black wagyu beef seared meat sushi is all-you-can-eat. I decided to start grilling the meat right away. The staff graciously grilled the "premium wagyu fillet" for me. It was crispy on the outside and rare on the inside. Cut into bite-sized pieces, the premium meat just melts in your mouth. It's truly a princess steak. When I tried it with a bit of truffle salt, the aroma was addictive. Next, I tried the "wagyu seared meat sushi (sirloin)". It was seared at the table with a burner. Just watching it turn golden brown made me feel so happy. Other side dishes like kimchi and namul are also available for order. Since just eating meat can get boring, it's good to try a variety of items. There are also refreshing lean meats like "beef loin shabu-shabu with grated ponzu sauce". With 60 items on the menu, you won't be able to try everything individually. However, my favorite is the "Sendai beef tongue" which I always make sure to order. The best part of all-you-can-eat is that you can keep repeating your favorites. I liked it so much that I ordered it multiple times, and a visually stunning bouquet-like beef tongue appeared. This one is definitely satisfying. And lastly, I must mention the "meat sushi series". With sirloin, loin, tongue, and kalbi, I ordered all four for everyone at the table. "Beef tongue sushi, sirloin sushi". "Kalbi sushi, loin sushi". The sirloin was seared again for extra flavor. No matter how many times you look at it or eat it, delicious food is just delicious! After indulging in plenty of beef tongue and wagyu seared meat sushi at "Isshintansuke", I was so full that I couldn't eat anything else (laughs). I was completely satisfied, both in my stomach and my heart, and I went beyond the point of breaking even. By the way, they are open for lunch until 5 a.m. the next morning, so whenever you feel like having yakiniku, you can go there anytime. Good convenience!

Visited the restaurant with 3 employees. It was a summer get-together to boost morale before things get busy after summer. I had heard about this restaurant on a TV show before and was curious to try it out. Despite the initial difficulty in making a reservation due to the place being fully booked, I managed to secure a reservation about a month in advance for this day. We started at 7:00 PM on a weekday. We were first served a platter of three types of tongue. The staff initially cooked it for us. There was black tongue, white tongue, and... I forgot the third one, but they were all seasoned with salt. We were recommended to eat some with salt and some with ponzu sauce. My favorite was wrapping the finely chopped green onions mixed with sesame oil and salt-based sauce around the tongue. While I find it harder to eat cuts like kalbi with a lot of fat due to my age, I confirmed that I can still enjoy eating tongue. Occasionally, we had some harami, loin, and other cuts, but the main focus was on tongue seasoned with salt. We ate quite a lot this time. We also had rice, kimchi, and three servings of liver. The 70 minutes flew by, but my stomach was satisfied, so it was just the right amount for me. The system here requires you to choose the all-you-can-drink option, so those who drink might feel it's a bit short. The Ueno and Okachimachi areas are becoming lively. We decided to head to a second place soon, so we left the restaurant. Overall, we were very satisfied. Thank you for the meal.

"I went to Isshintansuke, a popular place for all-you-can-eat premium beef tongue, with a 100-minute premium course (including tax 6,578 yen) and premium all-you-can-drink option (including tax 1,738 yen). The quality of the beef tongue was so good that I couldn't believe the price! The beef tongue was just as good as what you would get at a high-end restaurant and it was really delicious. It was such a good deal to be able to eat so much delicious beef tongue. I will definitely be going back for more. I highly recommend it to beef tongue lovers. Thank you for the meal!"

The restaurant is a bit small, but the spacing between tables is just right. What I personally liked was the staff's detailed explanations that made the meat even more delicious. Also, the original citrus-based sauce was perfect in both flavor and aroma. I highly recommend visiting this place at least once to try this sauce.

The quality of the meat was so good that it was not like an all-you-can-eat place. However, the food took a long time to come after ordering, and there is only about an hour left until last order, so you can't relax. It is recommended to order a decent amount at once for those who are confident in eating a lot. This restaurant may not be suitable for those who want to eat a little bit here and there.

Both the beef tongue and the Harami were delicious (,,•﹏•,,). I had the black tongue, white tongue, and of course, the thick-cut beef tongue! It was amazing (*｀ω´). The staff were friendly, which was great but... it was a bit disappointing that the restroom was dirty...

I wanted to eat beef tongue, and although it was difficult to make a reservation at one point, I was able to book relatively easily. The system requires ordering a beef tongue assortment first and then choosing your favorite beef tongue to order, along with adding a drink all-you-can-drink option. The staff will show you how to grill the beef tongue properly. There are various types of beef tongue available, as well as other dishes besides beef tongue. During the 70-minute all-you-can-eat session, it felt like I was just eating beef tongue continuously, and personally, I got a bit tired of it midway through. The unique taste of beef tongue, or the flavor, I guess. There are two types of sauce, salt, wasabi, and green onions available, but I got tired of them. The meal ends with grated yam rice and a dessert of Yukimi Daifuku. It's quite filling, but there's something lacking ===========

The restaurant offers all-you-can-eat options, but it is a bit pricey. You can enjoy various types of beef tongue. The tables are a bit small, so you have to quickly cook and eat the meat you receive. The Sendai beef tongue was especially tender and delicious.

We went for yakiniku on our date! The restaurant had a small number of seats and the all-you-can-eat price was a bit high, but we were able to enjoy a calm atmosphere. The thick-cut tongue, premium tongue (white and black), and Sendai beef were all delicious. The staff provided grilling service and explained the different types of meat. Ordering food and drinks was done through scanning a QR code. The other meats besides the tongue were also very tasty, so I would like to visit again.

I wanted to eat beef tongue, so I visited Isshintansuke, which I had heard rumors about. When I entered the restaurant, the staff were very attentive and provided excellent service. Before ordering, they brought out the beef tongue and explained the different cuts, ways to eat it, and the best timing to enjoy it. I was surprised by how different the texture was depending on the cut! I had never tried various types of beef tongue at once, so I really enjoyed the experience. The speed of service was fast and much appreciated. Each person can order the amount of meat they want without having to worry about their dining companion, which was great. The prices are on the higher side, but personally, I think it's worth the value. I would like to visit again when I want to indulge! Thank you for the meal.

I went to this restaurant for the first time with three colleagues for a New Year's party. It was 7,986 yen per person including all-you-can-eat and all-you-can-drink. The meat was delicious and the service was very polite, making it a very satisfying experience! Not only was the meat tasty, but the rice dishes and drinks were also delicious. I would love to visit this restaurant again soon.

At first, they serve thick slices of Sendai beef tongue in both fatty black and refreshing white cuts. It's delicious. However, when you order more, sometimes you get incredibly tough and chewy meat that is hard to bite through. The good ones are really tasty, but the occasional bad ones are quite disappointing and memorable. Even though it might be better to leave them, it feels awkward to do so, so you end up forcing yourself to eat them. The overall impression is not great. But the delicious ones are really delicious, so you still want to go back.

The restaurant had great quality ingredients and seasoning, with excellent cost performance. The menu was rich with a variety of options for all-you-can-eat, including tongue, Harami, loin, and rice dishes. The standout feature was the excellent customer service from the staff. Despite being busy, they always greeted with a smile and provided attentive service. Orders were placed through scanning a QR code on a mobile phone, and the time it took for the food to arrive at the table was smooth thanks to the fantastic staff.

I had been interested in this place for a while and finally visited. The interior of the restaurant was not very spacious. I reserved a course for all-you-can-eat and drink, and ordered drinks upon arrival. They offer a range of soft drinks to alcohol for the all-you-can-drink option, all of which are a good deal. They brought out a platter of assorted meats and the staff explained while grilling them. They also taught us how to eat, the types of meat, and how to grill them. Every type of meat was delicious! The cost performance is also good, so I recommend it! It's a great place for a date or gathering with friends. Thank you for the meal - I would like to go again. Don't let Corona win!

There is no discrepancy between the menu and what actually comes out at this restaurant. The premium course I reserved turned out to be of high quality, with each dish exceeding my expectations. The thick-cut beef tongue served as part of the course was particularly impressive, both in size and tenderness. It had a rich umami flavor and melted in my mouth, capturing my taste buds from the very first bite. The other menu items were also plentiful, and the sirloin steak, in particular, had a refreshing yet robust flavor that complemented the beef tongue perfectly. The staff's service was attentive and cheerful, leaving a lasting impression. They even helped cook and slice the meat, making the dining experience enjoyable even for someone like me who isn't great at handling meat.

I really wanted to eat beef tongue, so I went to this restaurant that was introduced on YouTube. I was a little worried about the all-you-can-eat option, but the beef tongue was really delicious, and I was able to try many different types. Among them, the thick-cut beef tongue and Sendai beef tongue were especially delicious! Honestly, I felt that just eating it with salt and green onions was delicious enough, and I didn't use much sauce. It's not cheap, so I can't go often, but I would like to go again next time ^^

I went with fellow beef tongue lovers. It was the most expensive yakiniku I've ever had in my life, but if you love beef tongue, you should definitely try it at least once. There are thick and thin slices of tongue available, as well as different types of tongue at the same thickness, making it truly a "specialty store." The staff were friendly and even shared that "actually, this is the most expensive in terms of cost" and taught us how to cook it in front of us, making the dining experience enjoyable. I want to come back as a reward for my hard work.

All-you-can-eat beef tongue. Visited after shopping. The first serving provided by the cheerful staff was delicious. I thought this place was promising, but as I continued to order on my own, some not-so-great meats came out... I ended up leaving the hormone dishes... However, the customer service is pleasant, and when they serve good meats, it's really tasty. It's exciting that it's all-you-can-eat. Thank you for the meal.

This is a restaurant with all-you-can-eat beef tongue. They offer a variety of beef tongue options such as thick-cut beef tongue and Sendai beef tongue. The staff will teach you how to cook it at first. I got full pretty quickly, but I was able to enjoy various types of beef tongue.

This restaurant is famous for its all-you-can-eat beef tongue. You can order thick slices of tongue individually. The menu also includes fillet meat and skirt steak, which are very satisfying. However, the condition is that you must order a drink. The drink options are either unlimited soft drinks or unlimited alcohol. There were not many options for drinks. The tongue is really tender and thickly sliced, it could easily cost around 900 yen per slice at other restaurants. It is truly delicious. However, the price is around 7,000 yen with unlimited soft drinks, so if you are not a big eater, you might be more satisfied trying a little bit of everything at other restaurants. Thank you for the meal!

For those who love beef tongue, I highly recommend it! I saw it on social media and decided to visit. I reserved the all-you-can-eat beef tongue course. I was able to enjoy various types of beef tongue, from large chunks of meat to thinly sliced tongue! The meat was very satisfying! At the beginning of the course, the staff cooked it for us and explained the characteristics of the meat. The original citrus salt sauce from the restaurant was very delicious! Since the number of tables is limited, it is recommended to make a reservation in advance.

The staff is amazing! They are cheerful, energetic, and friendly. They are attentive and cook the meat to perfection. Initially, four types of tongue are brought to your table and the staff will cook it for you. After that, you can order freely. The cost performance is not the best, but for those who love tongue, I highly recommend this place. It's a must-visit for tongue lovers! ★
