Everything was delicious!The steamed abalone was particularly tasty, and the golden seaweed was a nice touch.The marinated ribeye was exceptional, even though I'm not usually a fan of raw meat.The sushi with red clam and white shrimp was outstanding; the clam was finely chopped, and the white shrimp was incredibly delicious.The meat sushi was also delightful.The tempura of flatfish, hairy crab cappellini, and blue cheese spring rolls were all delicious as well.With such a variety of dishes, everything was delicious.The sirloin shabu-shabu was, of course, delicious, and the broth was exquisite—I drank it all!The Chateaubriand katsu sandwich was very tasty.The tenderloin and outside skirt were also delicious.The curry was good too, but the dessert, mango daifuku, was exceptional.The service from the young staff was wonderful.There was nothing lacking in their hospitality, teamwork, and attentiveness.This is the best experience I've had so far.The food, the restaurant's ambiance, and the service were all fantastic.I heard they will be closed for about a month.I will definitely visit their new location.Before that, I made a reservation at Kien, which will open here on June 5.It's a young establishment, and I'm looking forward to it.Thank you for the delicious meal!I will visit again.Best regards.

A meat kappou run by the Michelin-starred chef Jotaro Okubo from the Ushigoro group!I've visited several times, and I absolutely love this place for its calm atmosphere and great vibe.It's located near the Nishiazabu intersection, in the same Balbizon building as Ushigoro Nishiazabu and USHIGORO S NISHIAZABU. The nearest stations are Nogizaka and Roppongi, both about a 10-minute walk away.There are 7 counter seats and one private room for 4.One of the best things is that you can enjoy a variety of dishes in small portions. Every meat dish is refined and unique, with updates every time I visit. Compared to other meat kappou, there are more seafood options, which keeps the meal from becoming overwhelming and allows you to savor the seasons, contributing to a high level of satisfaction.The concept of a meat kappou is quite challenging, and I believe it occupies a small market. However, this restaurant offers an exceptional experience at the forefront of the industry, making it a prime example of what a meat kappou should aspire to be.I visit regularly, and each time I find new dishes featuring seasonal ingredients, so I never get bored. This is undoubtedly one of my favorite places for delicious meat kappou.

This was my first visit to the restaurant. It is a Michelin 2026 and Tabelog Award BRONZE 2026 selected establishment.Part of the USHIGORO group, the restaurant offers a kappo course that includes not only meat but also a variety of dishes, as the name suggests.Today's course included the following:- Sweet Sea Bream- Flap Meat Tartare- Beef Round / Aori Ika (Cuttlefish) / Scallop Sushi: This was the standout dish, with an unexpectedly perfect combination of ingredients. The balance of light saltiness and red vinegar was exceptional.- Grilled Tail Meat with Sauce: Tasted and smelled like grilled eel.- Beef Ham and Blue Cheese Spring Roll- Sirloin Shabu-Shabu: The broth was very delicious, but the flavor and aroma of the shabu-shabu meat seemed to be lost.- Mita Beef Tenderloin Steak: Very tasty, but the portion was small and left me wanting more. It was also disappointing that there was some sinew.- Curry- Daifuku with Miyazaki MangoGiven the location in Roppongi, all the customers were foreigners. While this was not an issue at all, it was unfortunate that one person had a rather strong perfume. Less
