About a month ago during lunch break, I and my close friend Miko were planning to secretly visit his workplace in Kinshicho. Despite the significant age gap between us, Miko and I are very close, and she even calls him by a cute nickname. Since we were going to Kinshicho anyway, we decided to also visit a restaurant near the neighboring station where I had been wanting to go for a while. The day of our operation, I informed Miko that we would have lunch in Ueno and take the same train to get there. We said our goodbyes at the platform of the Keihin-Tohoku Line. It felt like we were on a secret mission as we were going to follow him discreetly. I continued to Kameido Station to meet up with Miko. We arrived at 10:47 and decided to grab a bite to eat first. When we got close to the restaurant, we saw a long line of about 10 people waiting. It was "Kameido Gyoza Main Store," located just a minute's walk from Kameido Station. I had been wanting to visit this place for a while, but I never thought of going because I had the impression that Kameido was far away. However, I realized that Kameido was actually right next to Kinshicho, where he worked. We waited in line for a few minutes, and the line kept getting longer behind us. Perhaps that's why the restaurant opened its doors earlier than the scheduled 11 o'clock opening time to let customers in. Miko and I were seated at the counter and immediately asked for drinks. I ordered a large bottle of beer without hesitation, while Miko opted for a cola. And so, the gyoza feast began. At Kameido Main Store, the only item on the menu is gyoza. Even if you don't order, two plates of gyoza are served per person. Each plate contains five gyoza, so we were expected to eat 10 each. The two of us, hungry like hyenas, wondered how many plates we could devour. The delicious aroma filled the restaurant, and we joked about being able to eat 10 plates. The gyoza arrived promptly with a beautiful crispy sear. The small dish for the dipping sauce came with plenty of mustard, and I opted for soy sauce only. Miko chose a different sauce. We each took a bite of the gyoza with just soy sauce. They were not as hot as expected, making them easy to eat at a comfortable temperature. The skin was crispy, and the garlic-free filling was juicy and generously packed. After finishing the first plate, we immediately moved on to the second. However, the second plate was scorching hot... We managed to finish the second plate, and the staff offered us a third one. Of course, we accepted and ordered additional gyoza. I happily sipped my beer, while Miko drank her cola. With the third plate, a serving of boiled bean sprouts was also brought to us. It acted as a palate cleanser after the gyoza. As we finished the third plate and were offered a fourth, we both ordered another round. Miko's eating speed suddenly slowed down, and I felt a pang of fullness. We managed to finish the fourth plate, but the combination of the large bottle of beer and Miko's two colas seemed to have been our downfall. Well, we were not in a food challenge, so it was fine to stop at this point. We spent about 20 minutes there, and although there was a line, the turnover seemed quick. Now, we were ready to head to Kinshicho and surprise him.

・Price: 300 yen per plate of gyoza x 4 plates, 200 yen for oolong tea ・Review: Located about a 1-minute walk from Kameido Station, it's snack time at Kameido Gyoza. It's part of a tour of the top 100 restaurants in Kameido. ・Each person gets 2 plates of gyoza. They ask if you want more once you finish. Similar to a conveyor belt system like with soba, the gyoza keeps coming, which is fun. ・The gyoza is served hot off the grill, so it's piping hot. The thin skin is crispy, the filling is full of vegetables with a hint of sweetness, making it easy to eat and delicious. Thank you for the meal! 🍴

Located just a few minutes' walk from Kameido Station, this popular restaurant has been serving only gyoza since its establishment in 1953. When I arrived around 1:30 pm, there was a line of about 10 people, but the turnover was quick and I was able to get a seat in less than 15 minutes. The interior of the restaurant has both counter seats and tatami seating. Upon being seated, I was asked for my drink order and I chose 'cider'. Soon after, a plate of 5 gyoza arrived. The gyoza keep coming as they are constantly being cooked. The minimum order is 2 plates of gyoza. The system is efficient, and you can rest assured that the next plate will not arrive until you finish the current one. Each table is set with a small dish filled with mustard, and you can create your own dipping sauce using soy sauce, vinegar, chili bean paste, and pepper. The bite-sized gyoza are light and easy to eat. The crispy seared exterior gives way to a thin, steaming hot skin filled with a generous amount of juicy filling made of finely minced pork and vegetables. The texture of the roughly chopped vegetables adds a nice crunch. Although I only had 3 plates this time as I had another restaurant in mind, the gyoza were truly delicious.

Oh, I came to a famous gyoza restaurant in the Wanpaku soba style. I had heard about it before and was curious about the Kameido area, so I decided to visit. The restaurant was crowded, but the turnover was really quick. They serve a whole plate of gyoza in front of you. I enjoyed it with a bottle of beer. It was delicious. Just when I was thinking of ordering two more plates, the second plate arrived! Followed by the third plate... They are so light and crispy, I couldn't stop eating. But I realized I ate too much right before going to a yakiniku restaurant. This place has a fun and lively atmosphere.

Famous restaurant. I came here for the first time. There was a street performance festival on that day, so I decided to check it out. However, the street performance was not very lively. I waited in line for some dumplings. As soon as I sat down, 5 dumplings were served. It was required to order at least 2 plates of 5 dumplings each. I also ordered a small beer. The dumplings were not bad, but not particularly delicious either. They were crispy, but lacked depth as they seemed to be vegetable dumplings without much meat. The total came to 1000 yen for two plates of dumplings at 300 yen each and a 400 yen beer.

Since opening, the counter and tatami seating were about half full by 11:15. Before lunchtime, a group of tourists arrived and filled two tables. They placed their order as soon as they sat down, and the first dish arrived right after they finished ordering. Two dishes seemed to be the norm by the time they were seated.

There are no words to describe it. Gyoza slides down into your stomach so smoothly that you might start to suspect it's a drink. While 2 pieces are standard, having 3 or 4 is the norm! The thinness of the skin perfectly creates that crispy texture. The filling is already seasoned, so try eating it without any additional sauce. It's delicious enough on its own!

I used it for dinner on Saturday. I had a big lunch and my stomach was full, so I had some dumplings for dinner. I arrived a little after 6 pm and the place was almost full, but I managed to sit at the counter. As soon as I sat down, a plate of dumplings was served. I ordered a small beer and made the dumpling sauce. The dumplings were small but packed with filling, and had a good amount of garlic. After finishing the first plate, a second plate was served. The norm is two plates, so they don't take orders after that. When you finish the second plate, they ask if you want more. They keep an eye on the customers and take orders from those whose plates are empty. I ordered three plates and that was it. The staff at the restaurant are constantly cooking dumplings. They work efficiently. The taste is not particularly unique, but the filling is packed and delicious. The sauce, on the other hand, is distinctive. Thank you for the meal.

I wanted to eat Kameido Gyoza after a long time! Around 2 PM on Saturday, I entered the restaurant while being chased by the rain. Luckily, there was no wait. I sat at the counter, ordered a beer, and the gyoza came right away. The gyoza had a crispy and light texture, just the right size, and the filling was delicious without being too garlicky. But what really impressed me was how they smoothly asked, "Would you like another one?" at the perfect timing. I ended up eating about ◯ plates without regret. I will definitely come back again!

I thought that this Kameido Gyoza restaurant offers the ultimate light gyoza that you can eat without stopping. While gyoza with chewy skin and juicy meat filling is delicious, the gyoza here that is the opposite of that was extremely tasty. I found it interesting that their food menu only consists of pan-fried gyoza. On the other hand, their drink menu is diverse, offering options like electric brandy and white dry sake. Definitely worth a try!

After leaving the second izakaya and thinking about heading home, a colleague suggested we visit the main branch of this restaurant, which was established in 1953. It had been 3 and a half years since my last visit. My colleague had been to the Ryogoku branch near our workplace a few times for lunch, where they had not only eaten gyoza but also fried rice and ramen. However, at this main branch, they only served gyoza. It seemed like a straightforward decision due to space constraints in the kitchen. We arrived before the last order at 7:30 pm. The restaurant closes at 8:00 pm, but it was still quite crowded with about 80% of the seats filled. The gyoza was priced at 300 yen for a plate of 5, which was a 30 yen increase compared to 3 and a half years ago. Still, it felt reasonably priced. The minimum order was 2 plates. We sat near the kitchen this time, so we could see the cooking process clearly. The gyoza arrived promptly, looking crispy and delicious with a golden brown color. I immediately tried one. The surface was crispy, while the inside was moist, possibly due to the abundance of vegetables like cabbage and chives compared to minced meat. The aftertaste was light and refreshing. This made it easy to eat multiple plates without feeling heavy, but the juicy meat impression was somewhat lacking. It could be considered a healthier option. The opinions on this place may vary. The customer next to us had finished 6 plates of gyoza alone. It may not be relevant. Overall, it was a satisfying meal.

Arrived at 10:45 on Sunday. Two parties ahead of us. We had to wait on the opposite side of the road. They opened at 11:00. We were seated at the counter. It was almost full at the counter by that time, so the rest were seated upstairs. They immediately brought out two plates of gyoza. We ordered two more plates later. They automatically brought out a large bottle of shochu. It was great. When we asked about "Yanya," it turned out to be raw shochu. They provided a chaser. The gyoza at Kameido is the best. It was a great Sunday.

I moved on from Kameido Gyoza Kinshicho branch to the main branch in Kameido. Hello, Gourmet Actor here. The first surprise was that as soon as I sat down, without saying anything, a plate of 5 gyoza was placed on my table! And just when I was about to finish the first plate, another 5 pieces were added! It seems like the rule here is that each person must eat 2 plates! I had no problem finishing 2 plates, as they were so delicious! Looking at the posters in the restaurant, I saw that there was someone who had eaten over 40 pieces, maybe even 200?! That's amazing, I thought. It must be because the gyoza here at Kameido Gyoza is so delicious! The filling is crunchy and refreshing, which makes it easy to eat so many. I will definitely come back here again! Mixing mustard with the sauce and eating it was surprisingly delicious, I might get addicted to it. The prices are as follows: Grilled gyoza ¥300, Raw gyoza (takeout) ¥300, Drink menu: Large beer ¥600, Small beer ¥350, Black draft beer ¥350, Dry zero ¥350, Sake ¥350, Old sake ¥250, Gokapi ¥200, Apricot liqueur ¥250, White dry ¥250, Yanya ¥200, Denki Blanc ¥200, Coca-Cola ¥150, Ginger ale ¥150, Cider ¥200, Cola ¥200.

While other branches are more like Chinese restaurants with gyoza on the menu, the main store focuses solely on gyoza. The gyoza is stacked up in a unique way, similar to a one-cup soba style. The gyoza pieces are small, so you'll find yourself ordering more and more. ⚪︎ 2 plates of gyoza ⚪︎ Oolong tea I wanted to save room for dinner, so I ordered only 2 plates of gyoza, which was quite modest.

Adachimaru, a sumo wrestler belonging to the Ganyu room, was doing his first training session with Kamezamurai, who passed away due to meningitis. Kamezamurai had a girlfriend named Noe, who Adachimaru started dating after meeting her at a cafe where Kamezamurai used to frequent. Adachimaru felt a strong sense of responsibility for Kamezamurai's death and decided to retire, but his stablemaster stopped him and tore up his retirement letter. Adachimaru, feeling lost and unsure of his future, remembered the days he spent with Kamezamurai and realized he couldn't simply leave everything behind. He remembered Kamezamurai's kindness and bright personality, and a mysterious voice resembling Kamezamurai's encouraged him to live life more joyfully and not rush through it. Adachimaru decided to take things slow and fulfill his promise to Kamezamurai at his own pace.

The Gyoza restaurant in Kameido Ichino was impressive in many ways. As expected, there was a line outside the shop, but the turnover was fast and customers were coming in and out quickly. I only had to wait about 10 minutes to get in. The gyoza was served very quickly, and they were very attentive, asking if I wanted to order more when I was almost finished with a plate. The skin was thin like potato chips, and the filling was packed with vegetables! I think it's easier to eat than meat gyoza. I felt like I could eat more, but I planned to try other things, so I only had 3 plates. LOL.

I have been coming here for over 20 years, about once a year. I always order apricot liqueur. The dumplings keep coming out like a never-ending stream, but four plates is just right. This time, the dumplings seemed a bit more moist due to a change in how they were cooked, which was disappointing.

I visited Kameido Gyoza after a long time. Gyoza is their specialty, but I think the taste is just average. It's the usual Kameido Gyoza. Gyoza itself is a delicious dish, so I think it's difficult for them to differentiate from other restaurants. This time, I was enjoying gyoza with a beer.

I had been thinking about visiting this restaurant someday. Since gyoza is cost-effective and there might not be a long line, I decided to go on a whim. I visited around 5:30 pm on a weekend. The weather wasn't great and it was hot, so if there was a long line, I was thinking of giving up. However, I was able to enter immediately. The restaurant has a counter and two table seats, and I chose the counter. This place is a gyoza specialty restaurant with only gyoza on the menu, and you have to order at least 2 plates per person. As soon as I sat down, the first plate of gyoza arrived. It's almost an exaggeration to say that the gyoza comes out as soon as you sit down. - Beer (small) ¥400 - Gyoza ¥300 There are soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil on the table to make your own sauce for the gyoza. The gyoza comes in a plate of 5 pieces, with thin skins. The sear marks are well done. The filling with vegetables and meat is very delicious! It's easy to keep eating these. Although the sear marks are well done, the meat juices in the filling are noticeable, but the skin is not greasy, which is nice. This was my first time trying gyoza with mustard and vinegar soy sauce, and I was a bit impressed. It's so delicious to eat gyoza with mustard! I might get addicted to this. As I was finishing the first plate, the second plate arrived immediately. The empty plates are stacked up as you eat. In the end, I ended up having 3 plates that day. I could have eaten more if I had a bigger appetite. Eating gyoza makes me want to eat rice, but unfortunately, this restaurant doesn't serve rice, which is a bit disappointing. In the end, the bill was 1300 yen. This is quite cost-effective. Everything seems to be getting more expensive these days, but the combination of deliciousness and price makes sense why this place is popular. The turnover rate is good, so people eat quickly and leave. It was delicious. I'm sure the train ride back home smelled like gyoza. I want to come back again! Thank you for the meal.

The gyoza are here! I had only been to other branches before, but as expected, the main store in Kameido had a line of about 7 people. The system where a plate of gyoza comes out as soon as you sit down remains the same, with each plate costing 300 yen. Enjoyed with beer for lunch, the traditional gyoza here is delicious and you could easily eat multiple plates. I forgot to take a picture of the gyoza, but it was consistently tasty. Thank you for the meal.

On the day I went out to Kameido, I visited Kameido Gyoza for the first time. There was no line outside at all, so we were seated right away. The staff even brought bottled beer while we waited, and as soon as we sat down, the gyoza arrived - it was amazing. And the rule was to eat 2 plates! However, I could only eat 2 plates and got tired of it... (I'm sorry...) The taste was not particularly outstanding... (I'm sorry...) There are probably many people who love it, but this is my honest impression... (I'm sorry...) It was just okay. The bottled beer was very delicious and cold.
