This is a yakiniku restaurant located a 2-minute walk from JR Shibuya Station, at the Meiji-dori Miyamasuzaka intersection towards Harajuku. It is a well-established yakiniku restaurant with many fans, and I was invited by a friend who is a regular customer. Three of us visited and had the "Special Banquet Course with 12 dishes + 2-hour all-you-can-drink" for 7150 yen + 1870 yen. At first, I wasn't expecting much given the price including the all-you-can-drink, but I was surprised when the dishes were served. The red color of the meat was vivid, and the marbled meat looked beautiful. Every dish was delicious, with fresh vegetables and meat. Among them, the premium harami (skirt steak) was very tender, juicy, and full of the umami flavor of the meat. The drink menu had a wide variety, and the price for all-you-can-drink was very reasonable. It's wallet-friendly, yet you can enjoy high-quality meat. I was impressed by this popular yakiniku restaurant known for its quality, as expected from a long-established place.

I had a little bit of meat before ordering a half-size cold noodles! I wanted to eat a lot of meat, so I was very happy that they offered a half-size option! The meat was delicious, and the cold noodles had a rich broth and chewy noodles, making it perfect for the hot summer! And for the finale of the cold noodles, they brought out a new pair of chopsticks, which was very touching. It was a wonderful restaurant.

I came back from Omiya to Shinjuku on the Shonan Liner on 04/18. I must have dozed off because I realized I had passed Shinjuku and ended up somewhere else. I got off at the next stop, Shibuya. Since I was here, I decided to stop by somewhere. I chose this place. Ordered: Makgeolli, Mini Cold Noodles I'm glad they have a mini size. I felt like eating something cold, so I ordered cold noodles as a snack.

I was in the mood for meat so I came to this restaurant. I thought it might be crowded in Shibuya on the weekend, but surprisingly I was able to get in easily, so I thought it might be okay...? The meat and kalbi soup were delicious and I was very satisfied. I also ordered the cold noodles, but the kalbi soup was tastier.

I had some errands nearby and stopped by for dinner with a friend. Despite it being Friday, we were able to get in without a reservation at this underground restaurant. The meat was cheap and delicious. The staff seemed to be working alone, running around and not responding when we rang the bell. That was the only downside, but overall, I think it's a good value restaurant.

There were 43 people in our group, so we almost had the place to ourselves, but they wanted to add a few more customers. There were also some seats in the back that were a bit separate, making it hard to feel connected as a group. The meat was delicious for the price, and they were able to accommodate our group size when we informed them in advance. The staff was also very responsive and helpful. Since we were a large group, we couldn't take many photos.

The yakiniku restaurant has a wide variety of lunch menu options. During lunchtime, there are only two staff members, so it can get quite busy! The lunch special comes with free salad, pickles, and soup. The drink options include free barley tea or oolong tea. The braised beef tendon dish is limited edition and quite rare, so it's a treat when available. When you ask the staff if they have the beef tendon set, they will just laugh and say "nope!" Smoking is allowed. Many female customers can be seen here, and they even have Fabreze available for use. Lastly, the beef tendon soup here is incredibly delicious!

Yakiniku set meal was discounted to 1000 yen upon entering the restaurant. I arrived at 12:30, and there was only one group in the dimly lit restaurant, which didn't feel very suitable for lunch. I placed my order, and soon after, soup and salad were served, followed by meat and rice. The chicken portion was about half compared to the pork and beef. While the portion size was decent, I didn't feel like it was a great value for the price.

I went to a yakiniku restaurant called "Bari Bari Tei" along Meiji Street in Shibuya. It is located on the basement floor. I felt a bit uneasy with the staff being Chinese or Korean, but I decided to order the premium lunch set. First, a vegetable salad, bean sprout namul, and kakuteki kimchi were served. As I slowly enjoyed them, the premium lunch set arrived. It included top kalbi, top loin, and tongue salt, three types of meat. At first glance, I thought, "Hmm, this might be pretty good." The thickness of the meat was not like the usual lunch sets, it was thick, and the marbling was beautifully present. I couldn't believe it, but it was true. Both the top kalbi, top loin, and tongue salt were of high quality. The thickness, size, and taste were all top-notch. What surprised me the most was the price. Normally, eating meat of this quality at other restaurants would cost around 5000 yen, but here, it was about half the price. The cost performance is amazing. I was truly amazed!

I really liked the calm atmosphere inside the restaurant and the Korean-style barbecue. It was perfect for me as I enjoy strong flavors, including the side dishes. I would like to visit again when I go to Tokyo.

It was delicious! We were able to relax in a private room in the back.

It had a traditional feel and was good. It was delicious.

The cold noodles were really delicious, and the combination of harami and cold noodles made the restaurant satisfying enough.

All of them are delicious! They come out quickly.

Great value for money

Baribari Tei, located just off Meiji Street towards Harajuku from Shibuya Station, is usually popular for lunch. Today, four of us visited for dinner, including a colleague who came on a business trip from Hokkaido. While they mainly serve Yukkejang for lunch, it was my first time trying their yakiniku, and it was delicious! The meat had a good amount of fat, the thickness was just right, and the sauce, while conventional, allowed the flavor of the meat to shine through. The operation of the restaurant was smooth and pleasant. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

Category: [Tokyo] Yakiniku ☆ Shibuya Lunch I felt a bit suspicious about a restaurant in Shibuya that boasts itself as a hidden gem, so I didn't go in. However, when I finally entered Bari Bari Tei, it turned out to be a traditional and orthodox yakiniku restaurant, which was quite nice. The place was kept quite clean and the seating area was surprisingly spacious for Shibuya standards. There was a magic trick that made the prices disappear from the set menu, and despite my desperate attempts to figure it out, I couldn't uncover the truth. My guess is that dessert might be the correct answer, both in terms of word count and sequence. After getting frustrated for 3 minutes trying to solve level 243 of Farm Heroes, I arrived at the restaurant. I ordered the Wagyu Kalbi & Wagyu Sirloin Lunch Set (with free rice refill) for 1000 yen. While I thought the meat portion could be a bit more generous, the quality of the meat was top-notch for a lunch yakiniku. If you eat plenty of rice, your stomach will be satisfied. The sirloin had a delicious lean flavor, and the kalbi had the perfect balance of fat. The rice was cooked perfectly. Maybe it was too quiet inside the restaurant, or maybe there was nothing special to write about, but I felt a sense of loneliness. Perhaps eating yakiniku alone can be a lonely experience after all.

I've been lurking in this place for over 20 years. It's not really lurking, is it? (^^;) It's more like Ayakoji Kimimaro, isn't it? When I come to Shibuya, my way of speaking changes... It's not like that! (See, I told you!) lol Let's stop fooling around and introduce the restaurant from here. It's a yakiniku restaurant called "Baribari-tei," with a name that evokes the delinquent biker gangs of the Showa era. According to the store information on Tabelog, it opened in 1980, but according to the store's website, it has been "over 20 years." So it may have moved here, so I used the expression "over 20 years." Twenty years ago, I used to live in Hiyoshi, so I used to come to Shibuya every day for no reason. But I was so broke that I only ate at "Matsuya" in Center-gai. So even though I was wandering around here and making a lot of noise back then, I don't remember this place. (^^;) But when I think about it again, it's amazing to have been in this place for over 20 years! Most of the shops that were around when I was wandering around are gone now. Maybe I didn't notice because I was lurking underground, but on the other hand, it's really amazing to have kept going for so long! There must be a reason why so many people have loved it for so long. The website mentions several "commitments," but I think the most important one is the commitment to customer service. We strive for meticulous customer service and service that stands in the customer's shoes. The above is a statement on the store's website. I really felt that way when I experienced the staff's service. It was a very pleasant response even though the customer spending was low during lunchtime on weekdays. It was a wonderful lunchtime. On this day, I chose the "Kalbi Kuppa" for 900 yen. It says "Our most popular dish" on the menu. It comes with "salad" and "pickles." If you look at the content, price, and location, there's no complaint! As for the taste, it's the average Kalbi Kuppa. It was very lightly seasoned and the spiciness was also mild. What is noteworthy is the deliciousness of the "rice." They also seem to be particular about the rice, and I agree. They quickly source delicious rice from Niigata, Fukushima, and other rice-producing areas. We serve freshly cooked, shiny, delicious rice. The website also lists the above statement, but I think it's safe to say that there is no deception about their commitment to the rice. Shibuya seems to undergo particularly rapid changes even among the neighborhoods in the heart of Tokyo. I hope that even 20 years from now, "Baribari-tei" will still be in this place in Shibuya. (^^)v

I have been here at night before, but this was my first time having lunch here. I remember the grilled meat being delicious, especially the lean cuts. It was a hot day, so I was drawn to the limited-time lunch menu item called "Morioka Cold Noodles" for 900 yen with a free upgrade to a large portion. The lunch menu also offered options like grilled meat set meals, Kalbi soup, Kalbi udon, stone bibimbap, stone octopus rice, spicy tofu stew set meal, Korean miso ramen, and beef tendon stew set meal, making it hard to decide. The cold noodles came with a side salad, mini bean sprout namul, and a small cup of drinking yogurt. The cold noodles had kimchi, radish, pork, and half a boiled egg as toppings. The soup was light and slightly bland, and the noodles were smooth with a good texture. It was decent, but a bit too refreshing for my taste. I would like to try the limited-time Bibim noodles next time since the noodles were tasty. I am also curious about the most popular Kalbi soup and stone octopus rice. I plan to come back soon.
