A horse meat specialty restaurant located about a 4-5 minute walk from Sangenjaya Station, which boasts direct delivery from Kumamoto. They offer a variety of dishes such as horse sashimi, meat sushi, and grilled skewers. We opted for a course with all-you-can-drink, which included a wide range of drinks from draft beer to sake, as well as homemade liqueurs. The food was satisfying, starting with a first course of oden, followed by a generous selection of horse sashimi, each one delicious. The liver sashimi was particularly memorable, with a flavor that made me dizzy. The fillet cutlet was also impressive, with a thick batter similar to American hot dogs, encasing rare meat cooked in butter. The aroma of the butter-infused batter combined with the tender fillet meat was a revelation in taste. Every dish was well thought out, including the meat sushi served at the end, which remained enjoyable even after indulging in the horse sashimi. In terms of cost performance, it was very reasonable, especially for sake lovers. I personally would love to visit again, and it would be a great place to bring friends as well.

I enjoyed horse meat dishes in Sangenjaya~ The horse sashimi here is from Kumamoto prefecture ❤️ Just that makes it so delicious! Thank you ☺️ It felt like I was having horse sashimi from a restaurant in Kumamoto! The horse sashimi served at this restaurant is different from the one served at snack bars, both are good so I recommend trying both. The menchi katsu was also delicious! And the onions were irresistibly sweet and tasty, I could eat as many as they serve!! The main seating is at the counter, but there are also semi-private rooms available! -------------------------------------------------- Thank you for reading the review. I hope it can be a good reference for delicious meals for everyone ☺️ Your likes and comments are very encouraging! --------------------------------------------------

The meat I eat overwhelmingly is beef, but I also eat chicken, pork, deer, bear, wild boar, and of course, horse. In fact, when I was younger, I used to enjoy horseback riding as a hobby and even obtained a certification up to level 3 from the National Riding Club Promotion Association. So, for a while, I had reservations about eating horse meat, but I eventually switched to enjoying it deliciously, considering it as part of their destiny. That's why I decided to visit "Uma-cha" in Sangenjaya, which is known for serving fresh horse meat directly from Kumamoto. The cost ratio is said to be 50%! The interior of the restaurant has a warm, stylish, Italian-inspired atmosphere with a variety of seating options. We tried the following dishes: - Horse sashimi assortment: loin, chouchin (rib), rump, and mane. The freshness of the horse sashimi was outstanding, and the meat was so tender and delicious. - Potato salad with horse meat flakes: A rich and flavorful dish with a unique twist. - Horse meat menchi-katsu: Juicy and tasty with any sauce. - Grilled horse meat assortment: Fillet, classic cut, served with Awaji Island onions and various condiments. The medium-rare grilling was mesmerizing, and all the condiments paired perfectly with the meat. - Grilled rice ball with horse tartare: A crispy rice ball topped with horse tartare and egg yolk. Simply amazing! - Horse meat with uni: Marbled horse meat topped with plenty of sea urchin. A delightful combination. For dessert, we had homemade tiramisu made with coffee shochu. The coffee shochu was a nice touch, especially when enjoyed on the rocks after the meal. The drink menu offers a variety of options, including a wide selection of sake and original drinks. This was my first time experiencing such fresh and delicious horse meat in Tokyo. Every dish was a hit, and I highly recommend this place for a satisfying meal. Thank you for the wonderful dining experience.

I made a reservation and visited, but the restaurant was full and seemed to be very popular. The raw liver sashimi was incredibly delicious!! The assorted grilled horse meat was also very tasty, without any strong smell and not tough at all. I especially liked the garlic-flavored dipping sauce!! The staff seemed to be aware of the issue, but the bottled beer was not cold at all. If that was the case, I would have preferred to order draft beer, so I wish they had honestly informed us that it wasn't chilled. That was the only disappointing point.

You can enjoy a variety of dishes that bring out the flavor of fresh horse meat directly delivered from Kumamoto. This is truly the most delicious horse meat restaurant I have ever been to. The menu is extensive and the dishes look amazing, especially the ones with sea urchin on top. The manager is also very friendly, so I highly recommend this restaurant. They have counter seats, table seats, and one private room for four people. The restaurant is called "Umachan" and it is located in Sangenjaya, Tokyo.

After a long time, I went to Umacha. I ordered the Macaque course and enjoyed a satisfying meal of horse meat. It's hard to find delicious horse meat in Tokyo, so I recommend this place to horse meat lovers. Not only delicious, but also great value for money. I will definitely go back!

We ordered the 5500 yen course with all-you-can-drink option. We started with oden, which was perfect. The meat was really delicious and the drinks were served promptly. I always had a cheap impression of all-you-can-drink places, but here they served really delicious looking drinks typical of this area. I would definitely like to visit this restaurant again. ✌️

A friend mentioned this place so I visited. Horse sashimi can be hit or miss depending on the restaurant, but the horse sashimi here was on the delicious side. The platter with fillet, rump, tongue, and something else I forgot was all tasty, especially the tongue which melted in my mouth. I will definitely come back here when I crave horse sashimi.

The course was 5,000 yen, but the horse meat and other meats were very delicious and there was so much food that we couldn't finish it all! The all-you-can-drink included beer and sake, which made my drinking buddy very happy. The restaurant wasn't very big, but the atmosphere was nice and they even changed our seating to a private room at short notice, thank you. It must be a popular place, as it was full when we left. I want to go again. Thank you for the meal!

I ordered the following items at a horse sashimi specialty store in Sangenjaya: - Oolong tea (can be served in a jumbo jug for a great deal at 300 yen) - Homemade ginger ale - Fruit liquor La France soda mix - Horse sashimi platter with 4 types - Heart sashimi (amazing taste!! Best when eaten with thinly sliced garlic) - Oden as appetizer - Grilled horse meat fillet - Meat sushi with yukke, sea urchin, and lean meat - Miso soup as a complimentary service The cheerful staff make the dining experience enjoyable. Every type of horse sashimi is delicious. The appetizer oden is flavorful and gone in no time. I highly recommend trying the heart sashimi. And the surprising part is the reasonable prices. It's not that expensive at all...!!! This horse sashimi specialty store offers great value for money.

I visited a horse meat specialty restaurant in Sangenjaya for a casual drinking tour. I heard they had a semi-private seating available for just one hour, so I decided to check it out. They also offer lunch menu options. This time, I ordered from the main menu. The grilled horse meat assortment, horse sashimi assortment, heart sashimi, and horse meat yukhoe were all very fresh and delicious. The oden had a rich broth, and I felt like I could drink it forever with the sake. The grilled horse meat came with wasabi that you could grate yourself. The horse sashimi was so tender and fatty, I could eat it endlessly. I'd like to try their lunch menu next time. Thank you for the meal.

It was located on a very charming street in Sangenjaya. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The horse sashimi had no unpleasant smell, and all the dishes were delicious. They even prepared a surprise plate for us. I definitely want to come back again.

I visited this restaurant located about a 5-minute walk from Sangenjaya Station. I made a reservation about a week in advance because I was planning to have dinner on a Saturday, which I knew would be a busy time. When I arrived, I found that the restaurant was quite small with only about 20 seats, and by 7:00 pm it was already full. Customers who arrived later were told they couldn't be seated until 9:00 pm, so it seems that reservations are essential for weekend visits. For dinner, I ordered a variety of dishes including horse sashimi, grilled items, salad, oden, and grilled vegetables. The horse sashimi had a bright color and the freshness of the meat was evident. The grilled items had some fatty cuts, and you could change the flavor with salt, sauce, or wasabi, which was nice as everyone has different tastes. The fresh vegetables and grilled vegetables helped prevent stomach discomfort when eaten with the meat. However, the only downside of the restaurant is that they only offer horse meat in raw or grilled form. The dessert options are limited to rice balls, yukke-don, or meat sushi, so you may get tired of the similar flavors. Overall, if you are looking for a reasonably priced and convenient restaurant to try horse meat for the first time, this place is a good choice.

Horse meat specialty store, Uma-cha. The L-shaped counter, tables, and private rooms in the back. On this day, I went along with a friend who had purchased a special horse meat course through crowdfunding. ◆Special Course with All-You-Can-Drink (6,250 yen tax included) - Appetizer Oden. Daikon, kombu, quail eggs. - Cho-chin sashimi and hile sashimi. - Large obi, small obi, mane. - Steamed rock oysters and horse meat sashimi with ponzu sauce. - Horse meat prosciutto with kumquats and mozzarella caprese. - Horse toro taku. - Liver sashimi. - Seared horse tongue sashimi. - Heart sashimi with olive oil. - Karasumi mochi. - "Horse fillet cutlet" baked with butter. - Grilled onions from Awaji Island. - Silk Sweet Satsuma Imo potato fries. - Grilled horse tongue, grilled chochin. - Seared marbled uni, upper akami sushi. - Miso soup with shijimi clams. - Ichigo Daifuku and chocolate terrine with sake. - Amazake "Shiraito". It's an interesting course. Good value for money. Some parts of the horse meat were a bit tough or had sinew, but overall it was good. The horse fillet cutlet left a good impression. It was nice to have an all-you-can-drink option, although I don't go overboard with it. The special course was limited this time, but the default courses priced between 5,000 to 6,000 yen seem to offer a similar experience with a few different dishes. The staff was friendly. They are planning to open a new store in Jinbocho soon and will be crowdfunding on Makuake. The chef on this day will be the manager of the Jinbocho store, so I'm looking forward to visiting when it opens. (≧∀≦)

I love horse sashimi, so I went to a specialty restaurant called "Uma-cha" near my friend's place. I have been to several horse sashimi restaurants in Sangenjaya and they were delicious, so my expectations were high for this new place. The first thing that surprised me was the wide variety of horse meat dishes other than horse sashimi. Among all the horse meat specialty restaurants I have been to, this place stands out for its extensive menu. From grilled dishes to water dumplings, menchi-katsu, and tantanmen, I was amazed by the variety of horse meat dishes available. The first time trying many dishes, all of them were really delicious, but my favorite turned out to be the liver sashimi. Maybe simple is best, but I have to repeat that all the other dishes were also delicious! The atmosphere of the restaurant was very nice, so it became a place where I would like to visit again in the future.

This new restaurant is always fully booked (last time I tried to walk in, but failed). Today, it is full of female customers. The course meal starts with delicious horse meat dishes. The horse sashimi is great, as well as the grilled one. The additional sea urchin sushi and horse meat bolognese are also tasty. Enjoyed a leisurely 3 hours with all-you-can-drink red wine. Thank you very much.

I went to a horse meat specialty restaurant called Uma-cha, located about a 5-minute walk from Sangenjaya Station. It seems that the restaurant has moved locations several times and opened here in Sangenjaya in the fall of 2020. I finished work early on a holiday, so I decided to go, but it was quite crowded with many customers. Compared to other restaurants, they had solid COVID-19 measures in place. In addition to horse meat, I also tried meat sushi and sea urchin. The horse meat was delicious as expected, but the meat sushi was especially tasty. The sea urchin was fresh and delightful. I usually don't order wine, but I decided to try it and it was excellent. For a final touch, I felt like having miso soup. In terms of cost performance, it's not the best, but I would like to go again as a little treat.

San-cha no Umacha was an amazing restaurant. Especially their 6000 yen all-you-can-drink course. The cost performance is unbelievable! A parade of horse meat dishes. From the classic sashimi platter, yukhoe, potato salad with horse meat, heart sashimi, namero, menchi katsu, grilled dishes, a delightful chopstick rest with osinko, and finishing with horse meat sushi topped with sea urchin... Every dish was so delicious. The quality of each dish is top-notch. And all of this for 6000 yen with all-you-can-drink is a steal! Definitely coming back. The "dashiwari" sake in the all-you-can-drink menu is a must-try. You can keep drinking it with the miso that comes with the grilled dishes. I want to recommend this place, but at the same time, I don't want it to get too crowded because I want to keep it a secret! Haha, feels like I've found a gem of a restaurant. Can't wait to go back!

I recently developed a secret horse meat craze, so I decided to visit "Uma-cha" in Sangenjaya, which I had been curious about for a while. It's interesting how our food preferences change with age, and I couldn't resist the healthy appeal of horse meat. Since "Uma-cha" specializes in horse meat, my excitement was off the charts. The interior was quite stylish, making it a great place for casual dining as well. What surprised me the most was how delicious the grilled horse meat was! I had always associated horse meat with sashimi, so trying it grilled for the first time was a delightful experience. The quality of non-horse meat dishes on the izakaya menu was also very high, leaving me fully satisfied. It seems there are other horse meat restaurants in Sangenjaya, so I look forward to exploring more of them.

I went to a nice horse meat specialty restaurant near Hanamasa in Sangenjaya. The location is just a little past Akki, known for its sake. The restaurant looks beautiful from the outside, which is rare in Sangenjaya. They have counter seats, box seats, and private rooms which are all nice. When looking at the menu, it seems to be a creative Japanese cuisine and horse sashimi restaurant. The horse sashimi is delicious, and each dish has a unique twist to it, making it enjoyable. It's been a while since a good restaurant opened in Sangenjaya. The horse sashimi is grilled right in front of you, giving it a cozy and traditional Japanese feel. It's nice to be able to eat seasonal ingredients as well. Eating seasonal ingredients boosts your immunity, so it's much appreciated. I'll be sure to visit the next restaurant soon!

The horse meat was delicious, but other dishes were also tasty. I especially liked the cod milt gratin and potato salad (with pumpkin?). The staff were lively and provided good service. I would like to visit again.
