This is my go-to yakiniku spot since a loooooooong time ago (90s xD). I always come back here especially when the craving hits. No other place will sate the desire for proper Japanese yakiniku. The place is old but the quality of the food is always the best. So far I've tried all the yakiniku places I know of in my area (BF Homes, Paranaque), but in the end I always go back. Although just like any other barbecue place you're gonna end up smelling like barbecue when you leave. Small price to pay since I always leave satisfied so it's not really a big deal for me.
One of the certified oldies but goodies. Very good value for money considering the quality of the beef they use. Ox tongue is tender enough as well.
Delicious high quality meat and a great variety of it. The sauces that this place offers are few but delicious. Tastes very similar to the yakiniku that I have tried in Japan, just pretty expensive and the ambiance of the place isn't the best. Overall good experience due to the tasty food and good japanese beer.
I was not expecting such a delicious meal coming into this place. The restaurant could use a revamped ambience as it looks outdated and dirty looking. The service is not the best and the food took quite some time to arrive. Once the food arrived however it was delicious. The low prices for meats does not reflect the taste of the dishes as they were very good.
Quality yakiniku for a very reasonable price. My boyfriend has been raving about this place. Will trade this place over all other yakinuku or unli samgyup places.
Nothing beats this old Japanese Resto in Makati.. Our favorite! Located at Arnaiz Ave, the old Pasay road.. Kobe Beef, etc, lahat masarap! Nagcrave tuloy ako bigla.
Value for money. Will come back and order more of their Sakura original kurubi! Now if they would only renovate the place then I can give them a perfect rating.
Casual authentic japanese reataurant. Ordering tenzaru soba and grilled meat for our dinner. Food is delicious but not the kind that ‘WOW’ you and makes you come back often.
My favorite yakiniku restaurant in the Philippines. I often visit Japan because I have relatives there and we frequent yakiniku places so I think I’m credible enough to give this review.
First off: everybody must try this restaurant at least 3 times in their lives.
Cons: table booking through call is almost impossible, unless you call before lunch, after that it’s so hard to reach them. Also, staffs are not very attentive. Yakiniku places are normally busy but it’s not *that* busy that you almost can’t attend to customers. I feel like they’re purposely avoiding to make eye contact and that’s such a headache when you’re trying to get their attention.
Pros: THE F O O D. Their wagyus are so soft and buttery, and actually cheap! I just wish they serve still-slightly frozen meats so it doesn’t look soggy on the plate and so they can slice them evenly. Other than that, food is superb! But don’t expect the kimchi to have a noticeable tangy taste, theirs is sweeter than usual.
Suggestion: Everywhere I go I always order jo-karubi, it’s the best for me. Just grill it for a few seconds each side and it’ll gloriously melt in your mouth. Always, always order jo-karubi.
Love this place. I come here twice a month. Im fine with the 1990's vibe of the place. As along as they keep the quality of food and kept it clean as is.
