Ippei Noboribetsuten — Restaurant in Noboribetsu

There are many long-established Muroran yakitori restaurants, but few have gained the support of local families, businessmen, and tourists due to their affordability and wide variety of menu items. In this sense, it is no exaggeration to say that Yakitori Ippei is a representative of the current "Muroran Yakitori.

Ippei's secret sweet sauce, which has been passed down from generation to generation since the establishment of the restaurant, has become a tradition at Ippei. The meat is grilled to a plump and juicy consistency without any off-flavor. Kishu binchotan charcoal is used for this purpose. The essential ingredient for Muroran yakitori is yogarashi. The Muroran Yakitori, which is served with Ippei's original blend of several kinds of mustard, is simply delicious.

Ippei Yakitori currently has several stores around Muroran. The Noboribetsu branch has been in business for about 30 years. It is located in a deserted town, far from the hustle and bustle of Muroran. It is now the only izakaya in front of Noboribetsu station. Until a few years ago, most of the customers were either locals within walking distance or from Noboribetsu Onsen, a hot spring resort about 8 km up the mountain. On the day of my visit, foreign guests kept coming in. The restaurant has menus in English and Chinese, and for a rural area, it seems to be eager to meet the needs of foreign customers as well. These small efforts show that you don't have to go out of your way to stay in the expensive Noboribetsu Onsen district to enjoy Noboribetsu.

The menu at Yakitori Ippei naturally features Muroran yakitori, but the restaurant also offers a wide variety of other dishes, including yakitori and fried foods. Even if you don't like yakitori, you won't have a problem because there is a wide range of choices. The prices are also reasonable, and hey, when you pay your bill, you feel like you are...

Traditional izakaya with bar seating in front of the grill and cozy sunken Kotatsu seating for larger groups. Japanese only menu but google translate will suffice. Try the teba-gyoza (dumpling meat stuffed into chicken wings), and the "cheezu shiso niku maki" (cheese, meat and shiso leaf fried in an egg roll). Great meal, reasonable prices, excellent service (press the call button when you need help). Enjoy...

Nice Teriyaki Sauce and Shio Sauce English Menu available Only downside is very slow cooking Ate for 1.5hours and drank almost 5 mugs of beer and all of my food wasn't served. When i went to pay they showed me that they are going to grill my food. It took too long. I cancelled.the order.
