Reviews
"After eight months, I revisited this gem. The green onion salad is still a fantastic starter, and the quality of the beef is unmatched. I added some special cuts later and left feeling fully satisfied. This place is truly loved by locals, and I can't wait to come back in summer."
"I returned to the Gion area for yakiniku and was greeted with excellent service and quick delivery of our dishes. The chateaubriand was particularly delicious and tender. Next time, I’m eager to try the offal for a new experience."
"It had been a while since my last visit due to the pandemic, but the redesigned interior and private dining were refreshing. The quality of the meat continued to impress, and the side dishes were equally delightful. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!"
