I have to confess, that they offer a free drink for this review. But this only increase to my incentives to write a review, it will not compromise my rating. After all the free drink was green tea, how much value can you add to a glass of green tea. This restaurant is a very interesting Japanese BBQ experience. First of all, they don't offer menu in other languages, but you can easily navigate around. Because I menu is right in front of you. You will pick your selection of beef or pork and by just pointing at them. Secondly, you will able to grill your own meat. There are a small grill in front of you, and you can add your own seasoning. Even if they offered the best quality of meat , you have to know how to grill it right. So, before you come here practice your BBQ skill, or watch YouTube and pretend you mastered it. The price of meat in the restaurant is certainly reasonable, after all you are getting selection of A5/A4 beef for under 2000 (the price is by slice) . So if you are short on cash but wanna try the best beef, and you are in Japan. I definitely recommend this place. P.S. It is a standing restaurant, and it is quite small. So have your shoes ready.

What has happened to Jiromaru? A few days ago we were at the Shinjuku branch and it was mediocre at best. Today we wanted to give the Akihabra branch a try considering all the positive reviews. After reviewing the menu, my wife and I decided to try the “Gorgeous Course” (20 pieces) for 6,160 yen along with some kimchi and rice. We started on the right bottom row wanting to save the white marbled meats on the top row for last (see enclosed picture). After grilling the first two pieces, we tried to eat the meat expecting to be somewhat some chewable given it has less marbling. Needless to say both pieces were tough and chewy! My wife had to use her hand to tear the meat in half. We grilled the rest of the meats on the bottom row and again the meats were all tough with my wife unable to chew some of the pieces so she had to spit it out (see enclosed picture). After a disappointing bottom row, we had higher expectations for the top row. Once again the meats were not tender and a little less chewy than the bottom row. Overall, we were both disappointed in our experiences in both locations and shall not return.

First of all make sure you don't line up for the place right underneath accidentally. We initially lined up for it before realising we could walk straight in (entrance is on the right while the other place's entrance is on the left). Had a very good experience here with friendly service and good quality meat. It was affordable for the quality of the meat and a good way to experience yakiniku. We ordered a 20 piece set, large rice, raw egg and a few extra pieces after (language barrier meant we never found out what it was but it was good). For <9000 yen in total I think it was a good deal. The selection of meat was all nice and the rice and egg were definitely an appreciated part of the meal and at the very least I recommend ordering rice to soak up some of the meat juices. Personally, standing wasn't a big deal for me (not better or worse than sitting) but I imagine for many tourists a seat is nice after a long day of exploring, so keep in mind that it is strictly a STANDING restaurant.

IT’S NOT CLOSED! I was worries when the shinjuku main store closed down. I have to try the Akihabara branch. It is around 5 minutes walk from Akibahara JR Station (electronic town exit). The store is biggest than shinjuku’s, and can fit around 8 pairs. The beef was nothing short of excellent. Each A5 beef is around ¥ 330, which was extremely affordable for the quality that they bring to the table. The marbling and juiciness from each meet was mouthwateringly delicious. Every bite lets you taste the highest quality of beef. They have sauces for you, but beef is more than enough. Adding too much sauce or cooking too long would be a sin. Hope is not lost! With Jiromaru still open, you should definitely give this branch a go and try their marbling beef. P.S. They have a beef sushi. It was surprisingly delicious and the wasabi actually compliments well with the taste of the beef.

I found this place on YouTube and figured we would try it since it was close by. When first stepping in the first thing you notice is that it is tight! It’s only standing yakiniku, so don’t expect tables and chairs. The staff there all greeted us with smiles and made us felt welcomed. I figured it would be easiest to just order the waygu combo and get at it. We also ordered the bean sprouts and kim chi as a side. I found those 2 side dishes to be uniquely tastier than most places I’ve had the same dish. The selection of meats we received were delicious! It’s yakiniku with waygu. What more can you really say? The service was excellent. I found the price to be a bit high for the amount of meat but then again, I’m not totally sure the market rate as it was my first time ever having this in Japan.

This place was fantastic. You grill your own Wagyu and you do it while standing. I would recommend trying one of their sets first if you are unsure on what to order and then choose the cuts you want based on what you liked more. The veggies which is on the menu for grilling turned out to also be a hidden star as they were coated with some lovely sesame based salt. The staff was extremely accommodating and friendly. Capacity is limited as there are 6 grills inside. Each grill can be used by at most 2 people. Unlike other food joints in Japan where guests leave in 30 mins or so after finishing their meal, here it can take an hour. So this means be mindful on how long is your queue outside as you might be waiting for a while.
