Its name comes from its legendary status as a rare cut, and it is said to be a tender red meat from the lower back—truly exquisite.While the Chateaubriand and Silk Roast were also top-notch, this time, Tsuchinoko was the star of the meal.As for dessert, the shaved ice came in hojicha or shirokuma flavors. I had hojicha at the affiliated restaurant, Ikko, and matcha at YORONIKU, so this time I chose shirokuma. The sweetness of the condensed milk was refined and not overly sweet, making it a delightful finish.I had a wonderful dining experience. It was a great meal! Less
I visited Yoroniku for the first time as a birthday gift from my wife.It was a restaurant I had wanted to try for a long time, and I requested to go there. True to its reputation for "changing the concept of yakiniku and creating a new trend," everything was of outstanding quality, and the staff's hospitality was exceptional.The innovative style of having staff grill the meat, which many restaurants have adopted now, and the prompt serving of popular cuts like the silk loin, truly deserve high praise...

I visited the renowned yakiniku restaurant "Yoroniku" located in Minami-Aoyama. The elegant and tranquil atmosphere makes it perfect for special occasions or dates.The meat is cooked to perfection for each cut, allowing you to leave everything to the chef, which is a delightful aspect. Each piece is tender, and you can truly savor the sweetness of the fat and the richness of the lean meat.
I made a reservation for a course and visited on Saturday at 5 PM. I arrived right on time, but there was a long line of reservation guests. The staff grilled the meat for us, allowing us to focus on our meal and conversation, which was wonderful. The flavors were outstanding, especially the yukhoe, silk loin, and truffle sukiyaki. I’d love to come back, but I can’t visit too often! Haha.
The Yakiniku restaurant "Yoroniku" in Omotesando is known for being fully booked. By August 2026, it seemed the hype had calmed down a bit, as they mentioned, "We have availability in private rooms even on Fridays."This time, I was hosting guests from overseas (Vietnam). Since Vietnam is a country with a strong food culture, simply serving sushi or Japanese cuisine wouldn’t impress them as much, and they wouldn’t be as thrilled about the cost performance.So, I inquired about their preferences...

The Yakiniku restaurant "Yoroniku" in Omotesando is known for being fully booked. By August 2026, it seemed the hype had calmed down a bit, as they mentioned, "We have availability in private rooms even on Fridays."This time, I was hosting guests from overseas (Vietnam). Since Vietnam is a country with a strong food culture, simply serving sushi or Japanese cuisine wouldn’t impress them as much, and they wouldn’t be as thrilled about the cost performance.So, I inquired about their preferences and decided on Yakiniku. When I called "Yoroniku" as a long shot, they had an opening at 19:15, so I quickly made a reservation. The Tabelog reservation system doesn’t cover the most popular 19:00 time slot, so it’s best to call directly. In the past, it was nearly impossible to get a reservation, but now, even last-minute (perhaps due to cancellations?), it’s possible to secure a weekend booking.Since my guest was a woman, I was concerned about portion sizes. When I asked for recommendations during the reservation, they suggested the JPY 21,000 course, stating that even women could finish it easily, so I opted for that.In conclusion, for a typical woman, the JPY 15,000 course might be more suitable. According to the staff, "the amount of meat doesn’t change," but the JPY 21,000 course includes items like beef katsu sandwiches and sushi topped with gold leaf caviar and sea urchin, which adds some carbohydrates. My guest ended up leaving the second-to-last dish, the beef katsu sandwich, uneaten.The style of serving is leisurely, with the staff grilling the meat and providing detailed explanations for each dish. Of course, the staff is polite and impeccably clean. (Additionally, both male and female staff have decent appearances—not supermodels, but they possess a level of attractiveness that ensures no customer feels uncomfortable.)The taste is delicious. Although the portions were a bit too much, my guest was very satisfied with the flavor of the meat.The total for two people, including the JPY 21,000 course, private room fee, and drinks, came to just over JPY 50,000 to just under JPY 60,000. It’s certainly not a cheap meal, but if you were to seek this level of meat and service at newer restaurants in Tokyo, you’d likely spend at least JPY 30,000 per person just for the food. Moreover, considering that even Gyukaku has been raising prices recently, while the purposes of dining there and at Yoroniku are completely different, Yoroniku’s prices are quite reasonable. The cost performance is excellent.Of course, for those who strictly pursue the quality of meat, there may be cheaper places with larger portions and better taste. However, from the perspective of hosting, service and atmosphere are also important, and when evaluating everything together, it’s hard to find a place that clearly surpasses this one.After all, popular restaurants have their reasons for being popular. The cost performance is outstanding, not just in terms of taste but also when considering service and atmosphere. Less
A yakiniku restaurant that grills everything for you. Starting with the kimchi, the fresh meat, yukhoe, tongue, and harami—all felt top-notch. The service was also exceptional, and considering the location and quality, I believe it offers great value for money. I highly recommend it for dates or business dinners.
I enjoyed a course priced in the JPY 14,000 range. Overall, it was a high-quality course. I can see why this place is popular, and the staff were also very professional. Considering the price, location, and quality, it felt like a great value. I definitely want to come back here.
I made a reservation for the "Omakase Course with Truffle Sukiyaki and Katsu Sandwich!" I was surprised to be able to eat sashimi-grade beef, but what really overwhelmed me was the quantity! In the end, a gigantic bowl of shaved ice arrived, leaving me completely full. The Katsu Sandwich was absolutely delicious!
I hadn't visited in a while because it's hard to get a reservation for just two people. However, on the 29th, I was lucky enough to secure a reservation and came here. I always know what to expect, but once again, we were served a wonderful selection of meat, and to top it off, we enjoyed truffle egg over rice at the end. It was fantastic!
This is the best yakiniku restaurant I've ever tasted. The staff carefully grills each piece of meat to perfection. We enjoyed delicious meat sashimi, salt, and sauce, followed by Chateaubriand, silk loin, and truffle sukiyaki. I can't choose a favorite! However, the truffle sukiyaki is incredibly luxurious, as they generously shave a lot of truffle on top!
I visited a Yakiniku restaurant in Omotesando that I had been curious about.At the end of the course, I was served "Awa Hand-Stretched Somen."The beautiful, clear broth in a perfectly sized bowl left a strong impression.The broth had a gentle flavor with a hint of dashi, and the noodles were slightly soft. Both elements were subtle, providing a pleasant reset for my palate after indulging in such exquisite meat dishes.Adding the accompanying wasabi and tsukudani enhanced the refreshing flavor and...

It’s one of my favorite yakiniku spots located underground in Minami Aoyama.The luxurious entrance immediately elevates my mood.This time, I ordered the "Basic yet Satisfying Course (18 dishes)" for JPY 13,300 per person.This popular restaurant has received various awards, including being listed among Tabelog's top 100 restaurants. I had been avoiding it for a while because during my last two visits, there were many inbound customers from China, making the atmosphere quite noisy. However, tonight, while more than half of the guests were still inbound customers, they were not from China, and it was pleasantly quiet.Now, the meat is grilled by the staff with great care. Most likely, a beautiful part-time worker from Aoyama Gakuin University will be grilling for us. This is the "original Yoroniku style."In any case, the yakiniku is absolutely delicious. Oh, and the supporting cast of kimchi and salad is also tasty.However, perhaps due to my age, the latter part of the course was a bit tough on my stomach with all the beef.But the somen noodles to finish and the dessert of hojicha and Shirokuma shaved ice provided a refreshing reset.Tonight's runner-up was the "Chateaubriand" and "Silk Loin + Rice Ball," while the champion was the "Zabuton Sukiyaki."

I visited Yoroniku for a full-course meal.To be honest, there wasn't anything particularly striking, but I was truly impressed by the staff's training and attentiveness.The part-time employees grilled each piece of meat with care, and their responses were well-prepared, complemented by their lovely smiles.It was a great meal.
I visited after 10 years!I came for the course meal!We started with the meat sashimi, and everything was delicious, making for a truly happy time!At the end of the meat course, I decided to add the Filet Mignon since I had never tried it before.I was pleased to learn that if one plate is too much, we could order one slice per person instead.I was full, but I still enjoyed the final dessert of shaved ice, which was very satisfying!I was also happy to find that drinks were just under JPY 1000!

On a weekend night, I visited with my partner. We were seated at a table. The restaurant has a calm atmosphere, making it suitable for a date even at a table. We ordered the truffle sukiyaki and katsu sandwich course. The staff typically prepares the dishes at the table.

The prices are on the higher side, but the quality justifies it. The only downside is the lack of nearby parking. This time, we were lucky to find a spot at the coin parking behind the restaurant, but other options are a bit far. Less

Dishes incorporating eggs and truffles, along with a style where a single grill master cooks from start to finish, have become standard practices today, many of which originated here.Next year marks their 20th anniversary. Rather than chasing trends, their commitment to refining the classics is what makes them beloved for so long.This is where it all began, at "Yoroniku" in Minami Aoyama. The history of Yakiniku started with this first location.If you truly love Yakiniku and haven't been here yet, this is a place you must visit at least once.I hope this iconic Japanese Yakiniku restaurant continues for many more years to come.

This restaurant is perfect for savoring delicious meat served one plate at a time while enjoying a leisurely chat. The course includes various dishes such as meat sushi, yakiniku, and fluffy egg sukiyaki, allowing you to enjoy a range of flavors. For dessert, you can choose from two types of shaved ice. The hojicha (roasted green tea) shaved ice is fantastic!
This place is tucked away, making it perfect for a discreet date! (laughs)I chose the most popular course, and it was definitely the right choice!!Every piece of meat was delicious, and since it mainly featured lean cuts, it wasn't greasy and was gentle on the stomach.With plenty of raw meat options, it's a paradise for yukhoe lovers! (laughs)The shaved ice dessert at the end was also amazing! ♡I definitely want to come back for a special occasion. ( *´꒳`* )

The high-quality fat is not greasy, making it enjoyable until the very end.Among the dishes, the signature Zabuton Sukiyaki with Truffle is a dish that never fails to impress, no matter how many times I eat it. The rich egg, truffle aroma, and the umami of the premium wagyu harmonize beautifully, making this course well worth choosing.If you have any food allergies, you can consult in advance, and they will happily accommodate you with alternative dishes, which is a nice touch.The milk shaved ice served after the meal is rich and provides a refreshing finish to the yakiniku experience.【Course Contents】- 3 types of kimchi and 3 types of namul- 2 types of today's sashimi and yukhoe- Today's salad- Loin, premium tongue, and premium outside skirt- Today's lean meat and Tsuchinoko- Honeycomb tripe soup- Today's special nigiri- Chateaubriand and silk roast- Special strip loin- Zabuton Sukiyaki with Truffle- Awa hand-stretched somen- Shaved iceThe quality of the food, service, and atmosphere is all at a high level, making it a yakiniku restaurant I can confidently recommend for special occasions like anniversaries and birthdays.Personally, this is my favorite yakiniku restaurant among all the ones I have visited so far.

The meat was amazing! Every cut was tender and juicy. ✨ The staff's hospitality was also outstanding.However, the air conditioning was a bit too strong, making it cold, and the signal reception was poor, which were drawbacks. But even with those issues, I definitely want to visit this place again!

I had no idea!【Service】【Overall Evaluation】The overall level is high.There are many other yakiniku places that are cheaper and just as delicious, and some that offer better service at lower prices, but given the stability at this price point, it deserves a high rating.This could be perfect for celebrating a friend's birthday or enjoying a luxurious family meal.It's a 10-minute walk from Omotesando, which was surprisingly longer than I expected. Initially, I was worried because the clientele was mostly foreigners, but it turned out to be unfounded.It was a great meal! U・x・U Less

It was fresh and tender, and dipping it in soy sauce made it taste just like eating sashimi...The combination of wagyu yukke and baguette was also exquisite. The rich flavor of the yukke paired perfectly with the crispy, fragrant baguette, making it too delicious to eat in just one bite.The beef tongue was tender yet had a nice bite to it, and it paired wonderfully with the salt kombu.The signature tenderloin katsu sandwich was incredibly soft and juicy, becoming my favorite dish of the course!With a variety of meat cuts to enjoy, I never got bored, and the final dessert of shaved ice was also exceptional, with flavors deeply infused throughout. Its light texture made it easy to enjoy even when I was full!I definitely want to visit again. I can confidently recommend this place to anyone who loves yakiniku! ^_^ Less
The Omotesando exclusive course features Chateaubriand Sukiyaki.The course is packed with a variety of dishes, and the staff grilled each item at just the right timing.They provided pleasant service without interrupting our conversation, which made it enjoyable. Normally, I prefer to grill myself, but I appreciated their service here.The course offers a wide selection, and I think those who enjoy less common cuts and richer flavors will really like it.The dessert was a delicious shaved ice.

During my business trip to Tokyo, I reunited with my family of three for a long-awaited visit to Yoroniku.We made a reservation for Saturday at 5 PM, but the restaurant was already fully booked. The excitement was palpable, given its continued popularity. Since it had been a while since my last visit, my anticipation was at its peak the moment we sat down. ✨We started with a toast over bottled beer and a tea highball! The ice-cold beer was delightful.Soon after, the kimchi and namul (seasoned vegetables) platters arrived, marking the beginning of our yakiniku course.Next came two types of beef sashimi and yukhoe (Korean-style raw beef). The sashimi was enjoyed with wasabi soy sauce, showcasing its freshness and rich flavor. The yukhoe was served on toasted baguette slices, creating a delicious canape.One of the highlights of this restaurant is the style where all the grilling is done by the staff. With professionals determining the perfect cooking time, there’s no worry about overcooking. It allows you to focus solely on enjoying the meal, adding a touch of luxury that I personally love.The salad was a chori-gi style but surprisingly light, making it perfect for cleansing the palate.We started the grilled dishes with salt seasoning, featuring heart, premium tongue, and flap meat.The heart had a fantastic chewy texture.The premium tongue was thick and perfectly seasoned, with no complaints about its texture.The flap meat was not overly fatty and paired excellently with garlic chips. These garlic chips complemented the meat so well that I couldn’t resist ordering more! Next up was the grilled dishes with sauce, featuring today’s lean cuts and the restaurant's signature Tsuchinoko.I wondered which part of the cow Tsuchinoko came from while enjoying its incredible tenderness. I alternated between wasabi soy sauce and the dipping sauce as I savored each bite.The appearance of the honeycomb tripe soup was a pleasant surprise. While seaweed soup is a standard at yakiniku restaurants, this elegant soup was comforting and soothing.Then came today’s special sushi. The presentation of incorporating raw dishes between grilled items was a nice touch! The combination with the soup was also exquisite.At this point, we ordered a bottle of red wine. I’m not sure of the details since my partner chose it, but it paired wonderfully with the meat!And now, the highlight of the evening! ✨ The arrival of Chateaubriand and silk loin.Both were lightly seared. The Chateaubriand melted in my mouth to the point where I thought, "Do I even need teeth?" The silk loin was equally tender, with an explosion of beef flavor.A bite-sized portion of white rice was served, perfect for wrapping around the silk loin. It’s impressive that this method is incorporated into the course.Next was the special sirloin. While it had a good amount of fat, it was served with ponzu and vegetables. The ponzu balanced the fat perfectly, making it surprisingly easy to eat even towards the end of the course.Then came the signature zabuton (chuck flap) sukiyaki. A clay pot was set on the table, and we shabu-shabu’d the zabuton in the dipping sauce. After dipping it in egg, they shaved truffles generously right in front of us.The aroma was simply irresistible! After finishing the zabuton, we added rice to create a truffle egg rice dish. The combination of aroma, flavor, and entertainment was top-notch!We concluded with Awa hand-stretched somen noodles. While one might expect cold noodles to finish a yakiniku meal, the somen was surprisingly refreshing, allowing us to enjoy it until the very end.For dessert, we shared the restaurant's famous hojicha (roasted green tea) kakigori (shaved ice) in a large size, leaving us completely satisfied.The course included:- Kimchi platter, namul platter- Two types of beef sashimi, yukhoe- Today's salad- Heart, premium tongue, flap meat- Today's lean cuts, Tsuchinoko- Honeycomb tripe soup- Today's special sushi- Chateaubriand, silk loin- Special sirloin- Zabuton sukiyaki with truffles- Awa hand-stretched somen noodles- Hojicha kakigoriIt was a perfectly structured meal.The total bill for three people was JPY 61,952. For this content, this level of satisfaction, and this presentation, the price was unbeatable! Once again, I realized that Yoroniku truly is the ace of the yakiniku world! Delicious meat ✨ and wonderful time with family made for the best business trip to Tokyo! I will definitely come back.Thank you for the meal! Less
I finally made it back to the main branch of Yoroniku! I could only get a reservation for 10 PM, so I had already eaten a bit before arriving. Even though the food was incredibly delicious, I was too full to enjoy it fully, so I’ll come back earlier next time. The truffle sukiyaki was absolutely amazing and definitely my favorite! ^_^ Even though I was full, I managed to finish the somen and shaved ice because they were so light and refreshing. ^_^

One of the most sought-after reservations in the Omotesando and Minami-Aoyama area is "Yoroniku." This time, I enjoyed the limited quantity course priced at JPY 14,900. We started with beautifully marbled meat sashimi and yukhoe. The yukhoe, mixed with a rich egg yolk, had a melt-in-your-mouth texture, raising my expectations right from the first dish. For the grilled items, we had premium tongue, outside skirt, and lean cuts, along with rare parts like Chateaubriand and silk loin. The thick-cut... More

For the grilled items, we had premium tongue, outside skirt, and lean cuts, along with rare parts like Chateaubriand and silk loin. The thick-cut tongue, in particular, was impressive with its exquisite tenderness and flavor. Next came the signature dish of Yoroniku: Special Sirloin Zabuton Sukiyaki with truffle. This luxurious plate featured lightly seared sirloin paired with egg yolk, harmonizing the rich sweetness of the fat with the aroma of truffle beautifully. The special nigiri and honeycomb tripe soup served during the meal were also of high quality, and despite being a yakiniku restaurant, the overall flow of the course was very refined. To finish, we had Awa hand-stretched somen, which provided a refreshing end to what could have been a heavy yakiniku course. Even the dessert, shaved ice, was well-executed, ensuring a high level of satisfaction from start to finish. The service was attentive, making it a great choice for important gatherings or anniversaries. Less

Everything was delicious from start to finish. Since all the meat is grilled for you, it felt like a different experience than typical yakiniku, and I was excited while waiting for the next meat to be grilled. The shaved ice served at the end was also tasty, but it would have been even better if each person had their own individual dessert instead of sharing two types among four people. Dividing the shaved ice among four people made the table messy and sticky, which was a bit unpleasant. I prefer... More

This was my second visit since a few years ago.The food is simply outstanding.The staff cooks all the meat to the perfect doneness, allowing for relaxed conversation.Considering the portion sizes, meat quality, and service, I believe this price is an incredible deal.Reservations can be hard to come by, but it's definitely one of the best restaurants.
Nestled in a quiet alley in the city center, Yoroniku is a renowned yakiniku restaurant.All the beef served here is high-quality Wagyu.From the very first bite, the raw meat and two types of beef tongue fill your heart with the exquisite taste of Wagyu.The standout dish was the katsu sandwich.The staff usually cook it for you, ensuring it’s perfectly prepared for you to enjoy.
Located about a 10-minute walk from Omotesando Station, Yoroniku is a yakiniku restaurant situated in the basement of a building just off Antique Street. On this visit, I enjoyed the "Yoroniku Specialty Truffle Sukiyaki Course" (JPY 14,900).The course began with kimchi, beef sashimi, and salad, followed by a selection of tongue, lean cuts, Chateaubriand, and strip loin, finishing with hand-stretched somen noodles.

All the meat was grilled by the staff.For dessert, I chose the hojicha-flavored kakigori (shaved ice), which was a refreshing way to end the meal.I had about four drinks, including beer and highballs (around JPY 1,000 each), bringing the total to about JPY 20,000 per person. The staff was plentiful and attentive, ensuring smooth drink orders, and I appreciated that we could use a private room without any additional charge.While the experience was satisfying for a yakiniku meal, I felt that in a similar price range, Ushigoro might offer slightly better value. However, for those looking to enjoy a taste of the upscale atmosphere of Minato Ward, especially with its slightly secluded location in Nishiazabu and tranquil private rooms, this restaurant is a great choice.It was a great meal.

This is the best yakiniku restaurant. The food is incredibly delicious, and I feel that the cost performance is excellent for a top-level yakiniku place. Since it was my wife's birthday, I really wanted to come here, but it was difficult to make a reservation at a convenient time. So, I checked Tabelog every day to see if there were any cancellations. Fortunately, a spot opened up a week in advance, and I was able to secure a reservation. I was lucky!
I visited this restaurant to celebrate my mother's birthday. I was surprised to see that most of the customers were from overseas due to the influx of international visitors. The taste of the meat was just as delicious as before, and the service was wonderful. They even helped us with a surprise for my mother, which made her very happy. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!

Everything, including the sukiyaki-style dish, was perfectly balanced.Tri Tip, Knuckle Main MuscleYukhoe BruschettaGrilled with Salt: Heart, Thick-cut Beef Tongue, Chuck Eye RollGrilled with Sauce: Knuckle Main Muscle, TsuchinokoGrilled with Sauce: Chateaubriand, Silk LoinStrip Loin, Zabuton
Following the inconspicuous sign down a hidden alley, I descended into a narrow hallway that stretched deep inside. Although it wasn't a private room, the late hour and the empty seat next to me made it feel like one. I wasn't aware that the idea of combining truffles with yakiniku originated here, but even though it's not uncommon now, the menu composition was impressive.

A friend wanted to eat yakiniku, so we made a reservation and visited this restaurant! It's a stylish yakiniku place located underground, just a bit off the main road. We were guided to a private room in the back, allowing us to enjoy our meal in a quiet atmosphere. This is a great restaurant that can definitely be used for business meetings as well. The dishes feature high-quality meat, which I think is perfect for younger diners.
As rumored, this place truly changes the concept of Yakiniku, providing an exceptional experience.First of all, the staff grill each piece of meat to perfection, allowing you to focus on conversation while savoring the most delicious moments without missing a beat.What impressed me the most was the signature Silk Roast.

Wagyu overload.. in general Japanese style yakiniku is too sweet and soft for me but having it once in a while is still quite satisfying
