I will review it without discovery. The location is in Nanokaicho, about 20 minutes from the station on foot. It would be better to come by circular bus or cab. If it is not too hot, it is a pleasant walk. I had the Yamagata Beef Set Meal (3,850 yen) from the lunch menu. This yakiniku set comes with free refills of rice, dessert, drink, salad, and a small bowl of cooked food. The set allows you to compare meat from all 9 parts. Tenderness is a given. The meat is so fresh that you could eat it raw. The sauce, which is important for yakiniku, is an elegant soy sauce sauce, and you can dip the meat in wasabi and salt toppings to make it even more delicious. The amount of meat is about 150 grams in total, so it doesn't seem like a lot. I didn't end up having more rice, but it was just right with the amount of meat. The tea that comes with the dish is corn tea, which refreshes the palate after a heavy meal of yakiniku. The dessert ice cream was bite-sized dice of chocolate and green tea. It was half frozen and had a normal taste and texture. I thought it would be more dessert-like if it were a little thicker.

I shouldn’t write a long review for this one. Probably in my top 3 of best meat meals I’ve had in Japan. Only one tip: go during lunch time as lunch sets are cheaper and it is less likely to be crowded. The closer you go to the last order time (30 minutes before closing), the more chances you have to experience the entire restaurant empty only for you.

I would give 6 stars if I could. Beef cut was of the best quality and very reasonably priced. Fat was beautifully marbled and tender. A wonderful meal indeed. Staff were also super friendly and helpful to lost tourists like me to navigate about the meal. Do try to make reservations as the place is mostly booked by the time it opens.

Great Japanese interior with counter and horigotatsu seating. Private dining rooms are also available. Reservations are highly recommended. This is a great place to try Yamagata's famed Yamagyu (Yamagata beef). Well-marbled beef melts in the mouth and will not disappoint.

This place is excellent . Tourist friendly with iPad ordering system. The meat is first class for value and taste. Highly recommend it. However need to book which your hotel can help you with . Restaurant atmosphere is also fantastic, service is excellent.

無謀にも予約せずに突撃。開店直後だったため、なんとかカウンターが一つ空いていたようで、運良く席につくことができました。 第一印象は「あれ、オレ泊まりに来たんだっけ?」。まるで温泉旅館を彷彿とさせる造り。焼き肉屋さんとは思えない雰囲気です。 カウンターは私を含めて皆男一人(一席?に二人は座れるのですが)。皆贅沢な孤独を味わいたくて来ているに違いありません笑 まず頼んだのは銀杏の素揚げ。よくある銀杏とは違い、一粒一粒が緑色に輝いています。デカイし。夜THE蔵さんで出してる銀杏とよく似てる。同じ生産者さんかも? ビールと銀杏を十分に楽しんだのですが、肝心のお肉が未到着。普通なら怒るところですが…まあ納得。このご時世にも関わらず、お客さんが引きも切らず。そら仕方ないですよ、うん。この待ち時間が更に肉への欲求を引き出します。 遂に来たイチボとザブトン。サシの入りといいたまらないお姿。早速網の上に!当然ながら焼きすぎないようササッと。熱いうちにお塩を付けてパクッ。…うおお、まろやかな肉質と脂の旨味!ヤバァイ。 ビールでも最高ですが、これはやはり日本人として米とのマリアージュを楽しまなければっ。これまたヤヴァイ。 うーむ、素晴らしいひと時でした。味を楽しむならやはり一人が一番かなァ、焼き肉は(●´ω`●)
