A renowned Yakiniku restaurant in Ginza, Tokyo En is a must-visit for meat lovers. No matter how many times I visit, this famous establishment never disappoints. Nestled quietly in a back alley of Higashi-Ginza, this long-established Yakiniku restaurant remains incredibly popular. Known as a difficult reservation spot, it’s a place every Yakiniku enthusiast should experience at least once. It has consistently been selected as one of Tabelog's top 100 restaurants and received the Tabelog Award Bronze in 2026.On this day, I was particularly looking forward to their signature roast beef. Just lightly searing it creates a melt-in-your-mouth texture, releasing the rich flavors and sweetness of the meat all at once. There’s no excessive greasiness, allowing you to fully enjoy the exquisite taste of high-quality lean meat. It pairs perfectly with white rice, making it hard to put down the chopsticks.The tongue, outside skirt, and Omasum sashimi were also reliably delicious. Each dish highlights the quality of the ingredients, and the simple seasoning allows the natural appeal of the meat to shine through.Although it’s an old-school, smoky Yakiniku restaurant, this is part of what makes Tokyo En so charming. It has a lively atmosphere that you won’t find in high-end establishments, reminding you of the joy of enjoying Yakiniku.If you’re looking to have Yakiniku in Ginza, this is definitely a place you can’t miss.
