We came here for two days. If you don’t have reservations, probably you need wait 10-20 mins at least. It’s very local Robata restaurant, and people like here. The 1st day we came here, we got delicious grill set and local fish sashimi with cold Japanese sweet sake. All of dishes we like and we decided to try others in 2nd day. It’s lucky we had reservation in 2nd day, and met a couple of Japanese friends. They are really friendly, and bought sparkling drinks and japanese alcohol to us. It was close to the lady’s birthday of the couples, we bought a dessert to them. Chat a long time and the whole night was happy. Good luck to see a Japanese waitress and a Chinese waiter, they are all friendly. The chef in the grill bar is very nice as well. We really like Robata Jin in beppu. Cheers 🍻

Great atmosphere and decent food but too busy for staff to give provide the same attention and hospitality as other Japanese izakayas or restaurants I've been to. For example, they didn't provide me with a wet towelette and entree as they did for everyone else even when they came after me. Sadly, they had run out of Sek-saba and seki-aji so wasn't able to try that. Got the assorted sashimi which had some sea bream, yellowtail, octopus and squid for a reasonable ¥1100. Ryukyu was delicious and only ¥600. Shiitake and pork spare ribs were quite robata grilled nicely and quite cheap (¥300, ¥650). The bungo rib fillet was delicious and only ¥1500. Overall, perhaps if it wasn't so busy and I could have tried the seki fish, I would have enjoyed it more but still quite good

Managed to get a reservation here just a few hours before dinner after reading the great reviews! So thankful they could squeeze us in because the food and service was superb. The place was pretty packed and we were seated on the third floor - the waiter who was serving us was so pleasant despite being super busy and could converse in some English. They also have an English menu (tho prices are outdated but not a big issue) which was helpful Everything we ordered was really good - from the sashimi to the grilled onigiri, chicken tempura (amazing!), grilled sea bream head (so fresh and tasty).. We were also surprised by how affordable everything was given how much we ordered, and spent around 2200 yen/pax including drinks!

The *best* Izakaya we’ve ever eaten at in Japan. From the local charcoal grilled beef and pork spareribs, fresh local vegetables, and sashimi - everything was so good. It was so good we ate here two nights in a row as there was so much we wanted to try. We could’ve eaten everything on the menu if we had larger stomachs. It’s a super popular place though so definitely make a reservation or it is likely to be full - especially if it’s a weekend. They do have an English menu but for the daily specials take a photo of the chalkboard and use Google Translate

The Mog Champ sends his regards. This was my first night in Beppu and I wanted to find an izakaya to experience their local specialties! Thankfully I was able to have a seat myself despite the izakaya being quite busy with the locals. The service was quick, the food was great and the environment felt friendly with everyone eating and drinking away together! Despite being here solo I never felt alone. Thank you for the night Robata Jin, I had a great time! Mogliest Regards, Your Mog Champ

Hiji pork spare ribs (“broiled” - see photo) and Yamaga beef (see photo) were absolute highlights. The Hiji pork was full of flavour. The Yamaga beef was so tender. A fun restaurant to be in. They are often packed but you may stand a better chance if you are a small group (2-3 people), and if you go a bit later (eg 8:30pm onwards). The chicken tempura was tender and juicy too.
