Anjin Japanese BBQ｜Rumored to Be the Best Near Irvine 🔥🥩

My partner and I are both huge fans of Japanese BBQ— We’ve tried Tsuruhashi before, and this time we checked out Anjin. The decor and menu felt similar—heard they might be under the same owner! 📋 What We Ordered: 🥩 Wagyu Beef A5 – From Japan 🐂 Kobe Style Beef (Rib Eye) 🐂 Marbled Prime Boneless Short Rib 🐂 Marinated Raw Beef with Egg Yolk 👅 Salted Beef Tongue 🐷 Pork Belly 📍 Address: 3033 Bristol St, Costa Mesa, CA 92626 ⏰ Hours: 5 PM – 1 AM Pro tip: Arrive before opening to avoid long waits—otherwise, expect lines of an hour or more! Japanese restaurants tend to be small and fill up fast. The A5 Kobe Wagyu truly melted in the mouth—so tender! The marinated raw beef with egg yolk was also flavorful and rich. But personally, I still think Tsuruhashi might have a slight edge 😉 #JapaneseBBQ #Yakiniku #IrvineEats #Anjin #IrvineAreaFood #CostaMesaDining #WagyuLovers #GrillMaster #MeatHeaven #FoodComparison #NoWaitTips #PremiumDining #SoCalBBQ #DateNightSpot
