Irori Dining Mikuni (Tajima Beef Restaurant) — Restaurant in Toyooka

Was excited to try Tajima Beef because I heard how it's local delicacy. Was grateful they were open on New Years Day because so many places were closed that we didn't know where to eat for lunch. Customer service was kind and offered me a blanket since I was wearing white and they didn't want me to get dirty. Atmosphere felt elegant and refined with wood detailing. I was able to get front seat at counter and watch chefs cook.

On to the food, it was pricy but Tajima beef is high grade beef so expected for price point. We ordered a set with tenderloin and beef was so tender and delicious. The meat melted in my mouth and was the perfect amount that I felt full and satisfied. If you are in area give this place to try as they take walk ins and you wont be...

On the plus side, they give you a fresh wasabi stick. You grate it yourself. Really fantastic.

Overall, great experience and food. Most importantly, you don't come out smelling like smoke. Their air vent is around the grill like what Gyukaku...

Don't waste your money here!!! After reading other reviews, five of us decided to splurge on the prime ribs steak lunch 9500 Yen for 150g and 7500Yen for 100g. We were served extremely gristly meat that none of us could chew. We explained the situation to staff who spoke little English and received no remedy. We can only conclude this unacceptable "steak" was intentional. Likely discrimination on the part of managment and chef. Huge disappointment especially since we have enjoyed delicious beef and other fine dining experiences from our many...
