This shop is located near the entrance of Shinjuku Gyoen, making it a convenient location that can be easily reached from Shinjuku 3-chome Station, as well as JR Shinjuku Station and Shinjuku Gyoenmae Station. I tried to visit the shop without a reservation about three times, but it was always full. I also tried calling for a reservation twice on the same day, but it was still full. I thought it might be less crowded on a rainy holiday night, so I called on the same day and was able to make a reservation. The shop has both counter and table seating, and we started with the daily selection of five types of dishes: - Tokyo Shamo: The meat with plenty of fat was full of flavor, a bit firm but delicious. - Kumano Jidori: The texture and flavor of the chicken itself were excellent, the most delicious among the five types. - Mio Sakura Chicken: As the staff mentioned, it was indeed tender. However, it did not have the flabbiness of broiler chicken. - Walnut Cheese: It was served on bread and paired well with red wine. - Chicken Soup: The soup, full of chicken flavor, was the most delicious soup I have ever had. I also ordered extra noodles, and the soup here was also incredibly delicious. The fact that the yakitori and soup were delicious indicates that they must be using high-quality meat. Unmarked: No specific comment. ★: I will order this when I revisit. ★★: I will revisit the restaurant specifically for this dish. ★★★: A classic dish that I would want to eat on the last day of Earth.

I heard from an acquaintance that this place serves delicious and stylish yakitori. It was quite busy with customers over the weekend. The yakitori was delicious, with the flavor of the chicken meat slowly coming through. Cheers with a stylish Asahi beer glass! They had limited quantities of Waterfront Red Chicken with leek breast and thigh, as well as items like grilled chicken wings and skewers for 300 yen each. I enjoyed the highball and the garlic soy sauce marinated chicken liver. The quail eggs were perfectly cooked, and the sweet potato soda was refreshing. The chicken soup was also delicious. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I passed by the shop before and it smelled so good that I made a reservation to go in. Reservations are required. The restaurant has a sophisticated atmosphere and the yakitori is mainly salted with a slightly strong flavor. Perfect for pairing with alcohol! The side dishes were also incredibly delicious. The limited quantity items may sell out quickly. I really wanted to try the chicken wings...

I always had a hard time getting a reservation on weekends because it's usually fully booked, but I was able to make a reservation this time as it was early. The restaurant has a small and cozy atmosphere with a clean layout. The yakitori was delicious! The prices were reasonable. We ordered a variety of dishes, but the wasabi chicken breast skewers in the photo were the best! Also, the glasses were nice!

A cozy yakitori restaurant with a wide selection of sake, especially Japanese sake. The counter is spacious and comfortable. In addition to delicious yakitori, the small dishes are also tasty, perfect for those who want to enjoy some snacks while drinking. Highly recommended for those looking for a not too crowded place in the Shinjuku area. I will definitely go back!

We went to a girls' night out with 5 people and spent a little over 2000 yen. We ordered an assortment of 5 chicken skewers with wasabi soy sauce, including heart, liver, green onion, and meatball. We also shared two bowls of special chicken and egg rice bowl. We each had 3-4 drinks. The yakitori was delicious even though I don't eat much of it. Highly recommended! The prices are reasonable, so it's great for dates or girls' night out.

Near the Shinjuku Gate of Shinjuku Gyoen. Recommended for a date. You can see the greenery of the garden from the table seats in the back. The yakitori is delicious but the portions are small. Alcoholic drinks are expensive, especially the sake. If you eat and drink to your heart's content, it can get pricey. I tried calling several times around 5 pm on Saturday to make a reservation, but couldn't get through. In the end, the first-come, first-served group entered directly. By 5:30, it was full. Ate a little and moved on to the next place.

At night, there's a popular yakitori restaurant, but during the day, they serve an amazing oyakodon! It was packed as soon as it opened on Saturday. The chicken, grilled over charcoal, has a nice firm texture that shows it's good quality meat. They wrap it in a rich, flavorful egg that's cooked just right. The sauce is not too sweet, allowing the umami of the broth to blend with the egg and rice. You can easily go for three servings.

In the Shinjuku Gyoen area, you may come across delicious oyakodon restaurants. There are also many places that serve delicious yakitori. "Seikyo" also looks very delicious. For lunch, they offer oyakodon or chicken karaage set. The oyakodon with egg costs 1000 yen and comes with salad, soup, and a Chinese-style vermicelli side dish. It's quite affordable at 1000 yen. I visited at 12:30 and had to wait about 15 minutes for the oyakodon. The color looks beautiful. It was quite juicy, but the rice went down easily. The chicken (origin unknown) grilled over charcoal has a nice texture and tastes delicious when mixed with the egg. The light soup has a rich flavor. The dressing on the green salad is also tasty. The Chinese-style vermicelli side dish is also delicious. I finished it in no time. Next time, I want to try the yakitori or the chicken nanban set for lunch. Thank you for the meal.

Reservations are essential for this very popular adult-oriented restaurant. The individual menu items are relatively cost-effective, and the ability to compare different types of local chicken is a unique feature. The lunch menu item "Special parent and child bowl with carefully selected eggs" is famous for being available for 1,000 yen, but dinner was also delicious! [Review] - Daily special meat (negima) from 260 yen This is the winning menu! You can compare the taste of negima, with "Miyako Chicken / Kumano Jidori / Tokyo Shamo" from left to right. The texture becomes stronger from left to right, with the "Kumano Jidori" being my favorite personally. It had an exquisite juiciness and firmness! - Specialty parent and child bowl with carefully selected eggs for 850 yen This is the runner-up menu! For a luxurious finish, I highly recommend the parent and child bowl made with chicken breast meat. If you like chicken breast or thigh meat, this is a must-try dish! It is also available for 1,000 yen during lunchtime, so for those working near Shinjuku Sanchome/Shinjuku Gyoenmae, be sure to check it out! Thank you for the meal!

It's been about a year and a half since I last visited Harekyo! This restaurant is located in the Shinjuku Gyoenmae area and offers a 1000 yen lunch menu during the day. They have a unique dish called moist and tender parent and child bowl made with chicken breast meat, but this time I ordered the Chicken Nanban! You can get a free extra serving of rice. The Chicken Nanban has a generous amount of special tartar sauce and the crispy coating is quite thin, giving it a crunchy texture similar to fried chicken. Since it's also made with chicken breast meat, it's refreshing but still has a juicy texture and delicious flavor. And wait, the rice just keeps disappearing... haha. The spring roll salad and chicken broth soup that come with the set meal are also of really high quality! It was truly delicious and I was very satisfied. Thank you for the meal!

There was some business to attend to near Shinjuku Gyoen, which ended around 11:30. We decided to have lunch, and my companion found this place near Shinjuku Gyoen with a large white curtain as its exterior feature. We sat at a table in the back of the counter. It felt like a slightly upscale yakitori restaurant. We chose a limited quantity item from the lunch menu. It was a special bowl dish called "Limited Donburi with Fresh Parent and Child Bowl" that caught my interest with the word "fresh" in it. You could choose between wasabi soy sauce or leek salt lemon sauce. I opted for a small size, which still had a generous 150g portion of rice. Observing the dish, it consisted of sliced steamed chicken topped with lemon salt sauce, with a reddish egg yolk in the center. The steamed chicken resembled chicken ham, and I couldn't help but appreciate the chef's creativity and effort in this unique dish.

I had a parent and child bowl for lunch on Saturday, a holiday. It seems that raw egg is more popular, but I prefer the version with the meat cooked. The texture and flavor of the meat, along with the egg and sauce, were well balanced and delicious. The chicken soup was a bit salty. Thank you for the meal.

I visited this restaurant for lunch for the first time and decided to try the limited special dish called "Nama Oyakodon" (raw chicken and egg rice bowl) that was written on the menu. For lunch, there was also a regular Oyakodon (cooked chicken and egg rice bowl) and Karaage (fried chicken) to choose from. The Nama Oyakodon had chicken ham-like meat with raw egg on top. You could choose from wasabi soy sauce or green onion salt lemon sauce for seasoning. This time, I chose the green onion salt lemon sauce. It came with salad and a side dish and cost 1000 yen. I thought it was delicious.

Lunch special: Oyakodon with extra rice for 1000 yen. In this era of expensive eggs, it's amazing to find this kind of service at this location for this price. And you can choose from small to extra-large rice portions for free. As expected from a yakitori restaurant, the chicken is delicious. The rice is also very tasty. I really enjoyed the Oyakodon. Next time, I definitely want to try the Chicken Nanban.

I visited a yakitori restaurant called "Seikyo" around 11 am on a certain day in April 2023. Located about a 3-minute walk from Shinjuku Gyoenmae Station, the cozy restaurant was about 70% full with customers. I sat at the counter alone and ordered the "Special Tamago Donburi (with wasabi soy sauce)" for ¥1,000 from the lunch menu. I chose the "medium" rice portion. After about 10 minutes, the dish was served. While waiting, I noticed that about 80% of the customers had also ordered the Special Tamago Donburi. This popular lunch menu features a raw egg yolk in the center, served with salad, soup, and pickles. The dish consisted of lightly cooked chicken with a rare texture on top of the rice, seasoned with wasabi soy sauce and topped with garnish. The chicken had a perfect texture and juiciness when I took a bite. Breaking the egg yolk and mixing it with the chicken and rice brought out the essence of the dish. The unique flavor and texture of the Special Tamago Donburi made it a delightful experience. I enjoyed nibbling on the salad and pickled cabbage side dish while savoring the dish. The clear soup with chicken broth had a refreshing aftertaste that complemented the donburi well. Adding some chili pepper from the table enhanced the flavor and added a kick to the dish. With a generous portion of chicken and the delicious rice, the meal felt like a great value for the price. The quality of the rice also stood out in this dish. Overall, "Seikyo" offered a tasty lunch featuring chicken, and I look forward to trying their yakitori at night, as they seem to handle various types of local chicken.

I love chicken sashimi. I used to frequent a restaurant called "Yoneya" near Suitengu Shrine that served it, but it has since closed. I heard that there is a place offering chicken sashimi donburi, so I came to "Seikyo" today. It's a yakitori restaurant that can also be used for dates, with mostly couples inside. I tried various dishes. What I ate: - Specialty raw parent and child donburi ¥1100 - Bonjiri ¥260 - Seseri ¥280 - Negima (leek and chicken skewers) market price - Liver ¥280 The food arrived in about 10 minutes. The raw parent and child donburi had moist and tender chicken pieces stacked on top. It was quite filling. The rich egg yolk paired well with it. They also offer skewers from lunchtime. The grilling seemed to be done with strong heat. As expected, there was some dryness when I tried it. I wish they would finish it a bit more moist, perhaps by spraying the surface with water. I think the ingredients are good though. I have high hopes for the skewers in the future. Definitely try it out for lunch at the Imperial Palace! On Instagram, "Nonaru Otoko no Tokyo Lunch Meshi," with 70,000 followers, is currently introducing delicious food from Tokyo and all over Japan!

I had work in the Shinjuku Gyoen area from 1 pm today. I arrived early, parked my car, and took a walk around the city. Since I was in Shinjuku, I decided to choose a lunch spot on the spot without researching. There were many tempting shops to choose from. I was drawn to this shop with a nice-looking curtain. When I googled a bit, it said "reservation required," so I was a little worried. However, when I came back at the opening time of 11:30, there was only one group of customers ahead of me, so I was able to enter as the second customer. Lunch did not seem to require a reservation, especially at this time. I sat at the counter seat. I was originally planning to order the basic menu item "Oyakodon," but I was also interested in the "Limited Donburi" called "Special Raw Oyakodon." When I asked, I found out that this one uses low-temperature cooking for the chicken breast, and I recently have a weakness for the term "low-temperature cooking" (laughs). I decided on the "Special Raw Oyakodon." You can choose between "Wasabi Soy Sauce" and "Sesame Sauce" for the sauce, and I chose "Wasabi Soy Sauce." The lunch menu consists of two "standard" items, "Special Raw Oyakodon" and "Chicken Nanban (next week will be fried chicken)," and the "Limited Donburi" changes depending on the season. At this time, I chose the "Special Raw Oyakodon." The lunch set costs 1000 yen and includes "pickles," "small dish," "salad," and "soup." Afterwards, more and more customers arrived, and the restaurant quickly became almost full. At first, I thought that there were many orders for "Chicken Nanban" mainly from young customers, but surprisingly, many regular customers ended up choosing the same dish as me. Then, the set in the photo arrived. The luxurious chicken breast was generously topped. In the center, there was a beautiful golden egg yolk. First, I tried the "chicken." It had a soft texture that didn't feel like chicken breast. This is good. It seems that not only low-temperature cooking but also pre-treatment like "confit" was done. I think the quality of the chicken must be good. The chicken not only had a soft texture but also occasionally had a firm elasticity similar to Cochin, which made it enjoyable. I also enjoyed changing the taste by breaking the egg yolk in the middle. When I see this beautiful dark egg yolk, I also want to try the standard style "Oyakodon." The busy lunchtime at the popular restaurant was handled by two people, amazing. The service and communication were polite, and I was able to enjoy a delicious meal in a comfortable atmosphere. It's a restaurant that I would like to visit again.

Today's lunch was at the yakitori restaurant Seikyo in Shinjuku Gyoenmae. It was my first visit and they had a limited special donburi available, so I ordered the Specialty Tamago no Oyakodon (1,000 yen) with wasabi soy sauce rice (large, 300g). The moist chicken and the vibrant egg yolk make for a visually appealing dish. The rich sweetness of the yolk combined with the wasabi soy sauce is delicious. The side dishes, salad, and chicken soup were also very good. I'm curious about trying their regular oyakodon and karaage as well. It was delicious.
