My go-to- resto when Im craving Japanese dishes. I love their Spicy tuna! Though pricey but its worth it! Hoping that they could expand their resto since it is always full especially on weekends.
A year ago, we celebrated 4 and 1 at Jipan. Naadik pala talaga kami sa Jipan.
We keep coming back for Dynamite Rolls! Two faves in one roll - maki and ebi tempura. Big servings, crunchy and yummy. I could eat this all day - kung 'di lang siya mabigat sa tiyan🤣 Skip Shoyu most especially when you've been to Nagi or Ippudo, order Chuukra Ramen instead - it has a much bolder taste

JIPAN @ GLORIETTA: I’ve recently developed this weird, recurring craving for a roll, covered in ,tobiko, doused with kewpie mayo, and has some sort of fried element. I pair this with the most random thing- Agadashi Tofu. I’ve been ordering that combo at every Japanese restaurant that I’ve been in, some have better agadashi tofu but not so good rolls, some have good rolls but agadashi tofu is subpar, but the winner so far for both good agadashi and rolls has been Jipan.
AGADASHI TOFU: In some restaurants, the tofu is too firm and the taste of soy overpowers the thin layer of batter + sauce that coat it. The tofu here is cut smaller and is silken, so the tofu : batter : sauce ratio is perf 👌🏼 ROLLS: I love rolls with tobiko cos it gives it a subtle, salty crunch. Jipan’s Dynamite Roll has all sorts of crunch going on with the tempura, the tobiko, and the tanuki and I’ve literally craved this on a weekly basis!!!!!! GYUDON: I also ordered a gyudon cos I was a hungry gal lol and it’s delish. Vs. Yoshiniya: it’s meatier and has noodles.
Special mention to their Monroe bread: it’s like a croissant loaf that they use in some of their sandwiches. But their sandwiches didn’t make the cut (for my standards lol) so Skip the sandwich, buy Monroe bread from the Jipan bakery and make a better sandwich or a delicious french toast.
Next time I do want to try their pastas! I miss Japanese style pasta (esp with CREAM) and their carbonara looks interesting.
I went here to treat my friend for a belated birthday celebration. We ordered Omu Rice, Beef Curry, Jipan Poppers, and two iced tea. All in all I would say the dining experience was fine. The food was served in less than 15 minutes so it was still hot. The Omu Rice was presented well and taste great as well. The Beef Curry, though not very appealing in it's presentation taste good too, the beef was well-cooked together with the carrots. The Jipan Poppers was crunchy and the dip they provided complimented it. The reason I'm giving it a four is because of the ambience, maybe because it was located in the middle, where people are just passing by, and you can get distracted easily. Anyway, the staff were kind and quite attentive too.
Great japanese food in Jipan! We ordered cold soba, curry rice and gyudon rice bowl and so far everything tastes good. For very picky eaters, this place may not be as cozy as you expect. It is located along the hallway of glorietta. So if you dont like shoppers staring at you, find a seat inside the resto.
Ebi Fry Curry Rice was good but the tempura were small and nothing special. I would consider it pricey given the serving size.
We also ordered the Salmon Cream Cheese Roll which was so-so, and the Crunchy Salmon Maki which we loved.
We'll only order makis and sushis here since that seems to be their specialty.
Okomiyaki is great tasting as well as the gyudon. Polite attentive staff, reasonable serving time and price. Acceptable alternative for those craving some Japanese food but dont have the budget yet to fly to Japan. 🤣🤣🤣
Ordered their Shogoyaki and Katsudon.
Shogoyaki set was superb; Veggies and
Soup are okay, Pork was tangy and tender.
Katsudon was great. Not too salty
not too sweet. Serving is huge, great!
The place is easy to spot. There are, I think, just less than 10 tables to accommodate their customers. The price is a little bit high but the serving size is really big. The taste and texture of the food is very very good. We're gonna try their pastries next time. Overall, we had a good experience here.
It's located in the middle of Glorietta so expect a line especially in peak hours.
Loved everything we ordered except for the presentation of the chicken teriyaki. Decent Japanese food and price.
