What customers say?

“ Great service and delicious meat quality. I accidentally spent about $133 usd so be careful with your meat selection. Server sprayed us with a mysterious liquid while we were walking out of the "smell smoke" :) ”

- Brianna Lara -

“ I’ve been here twice, in 2023 and again in 2025, and the food is always amazing! The meat is super tender and flavorful — great value for money. Nice atmosphere, close to JR Shinjuku, with private rooms available. Friendly staff. Many Korean customers dining here too. ”

- Lid Murmur -

“ Extremely friendly and welcoming staff in this Korean grill restaurant. Food was good, although some of the meat not as tender as we'd have liked. We took several types of meat and vegetables. It's an expensive place to eat - in fact one of the most expensive meals we had in Japan. On the other hand, they use traditional charcoal grills (unlike others that use gas). Glad we went, but probably wouldn't go back because of the high cost. ”

- Richard Davies -

“ Come here great quality meat and vegetables and nice restaurant environment. Perfect for anyone looking for Japan BBQ grill. Very friendly staff. no complaints :) ”

- Jacob Fuller -

“ Would definitely recommend - it was such a great experience cooking at the table. Can also recommend the premium boneless beef short rib and the crème brûlée ice cream for dessert. ”

“ Very kind staff and good service. The menu is very meat focussed, with some vegetables. Great place for dinner. ”

- Luke Ballantine -

“ The quality of meat was great (a bit too fatty for me). Service was fast and attentive. English menu was available. Restuarant’s ambient was a bit dim. Price was more expensive than others but as I said before, quality was better. I like the way that I can order in half portion. Course menu was also available. ”

- Jaktat J. -

“ Amazing service, polite and attentive. Easy to understand the menu. Food was brought out quickly and presented well. The food and sides were all delicious. Family friendly. We really enjoyed our evening. ”
