Wife and I absolutely loved, loved, loved this place. After being turned away by the (overhyped, snooty) Ginza Steak next doors for not having reservations eventhough they were emptied, we were so happy we found this treasure. Hungry and tired from our navigation from Shimbuya station, the Oreno staff welcomed us in with opened arms and fanfare. The place erupted with all the chefs and waiters screaming 'welcome' in Japanese. It was like stepping into a Chuck E Cheese or Hooters (for the all American readers out there). As part of the eating here, we had to agreed to a 330 yen/person seating charge, 110 minutes max consumption time, and a minimum purchase of 2 drinks. Seating charges and time limits are common practices by restaurants here. No issues for us as we're hungry and thirsty. We seated around 6:20pm when there were probably only 6 other patrons in the place, but once we left, the place was packed and there was a line forming. Glad we came when we did. The atmosphere was rocking and lively for a Monday night. Having had a very subdued (but excellent) 5 stars Kobe beef experience in Kobe, it was refreshing to be in an environment where you didn't feel like you were in a library. Don't get me wrong, we enjoyed our Kobe experience as it was our splurge for the trip. We would have also enjoyed Ginza Steak had they seated us (and would have gladly spent a lot of money there too). Oreno is a 'you grill your own foods at the table' establishment similar to the Korean BBQ or VN Bo Ne experience. This is not a teppanyaki experience like we had in Kobe. We preferred this over a private teppanyaki chef as we can eat leisurely at our own pace without worrying that someone is watching over us to be sure he has our next portion ready. We ordered the Ultimate 12 Steps A5 Wagyu Platter for 2-3 persons. It was plenty. We barely finished (and to think I was going to get the 4 persons portion). Wagyu is something I feel that can be overwhelming if you get too much of it. Remember, if you're eating good Wagyu, you're eating mostly fat with some beef sprinkled in. We also ordered a side of rice and kimchi to balance things out. Oh, the meats were so heavenly; melting in your mouth with every bite. They provided sauces for dipping, but we found just a touch of wasabi and salt is all that is needed to bring out the true flavor of the beef. We got 2 Sapporo beers and a shot of their best sake. I introduced our waiter to the concept of the sake bomb. He was impressed and will mentioned to his manager to include this as part of their celebration. LOL, there was birthday cake made of beef at a table next to us while the staff all sang happy birthday. I'm shocked that they haven't discover the sake bomb yet. We left this place filled and very happy. 16,800 yen for the step platter and add drinks/sake, we spent only a small fraction of what we set out to spend at Ginza Steak. So do yourself a favor and go here for you Wagyu experience. Highly recommend.
