It's been a while since I visited the main store of "Masuichi". There was a bit of a wait, but it wasn't too crowded. We started with the "Masuichi special salad" and the recommended limited menu item, the "T-bone steak". The appearance of the steak wasn't great, but it was delicious. However, unlike a steakhouse, it was difficult to cut the meat around the bone with tongs and scissors instead of a knife and fork. I usually like to eat sauce dishes with rice, but due to a mistake on the restaurant's part, there was no cooked rice available, and all rice dishes had a wait of over 30 minutes. While that can't be helped, all tables that ordered rice dishes were informed after placing their orders. Some people may have ordered meat to go with their rice, so shouldn't they have been informed at the time of ordering, not after the order was placed? Because of this, I have slightly lowered my rating for today.

Visited Maseichi in Yoshijyo-in, Kyoto for the first time! It is not close to the station, so I recommend going by taxi. The adjacent parking lot was spacious! Today, we ordered the following menu items: - Tan salt-grilled for 1080 yen - Negi shio kalbi for 970 yen - Masiichi yukke for 980 yen - Masiichi kalbi for 1090 yen - Marbled kalbi for 980 yen - Dragon loin for 1680 yen. The specialty of the restaurant, Negi shio kalbi, was excellent! Maseichi is a popular restaurant in Kyoto known for its delicious yakiniku, and even competes with other famous yakiniku restaurants in the area. You can make a reservation by phone, so you can relax in your car while waiting. The best part is that it is reasonably priced! Delicious yakiniku restaurants usually come with a high price tag, but at Maseichi, you can enjoy tasty yakiniku at a reasonable price. I understand why it is so popular... Reservations are a must, so be sure to book in advance. It was very delicious! Thank you for the meal!

Visited Nagoya, Itami, and stayed in Kyoto on December 28, 2022. For dinner, I chose Masuichi, which I made a reservation for at the opening time of 5:00 pm. It is a popular restaurant, so it was the only place available. I was guided to the second-floor tatami room. The restroom is on the third floor, up the stairs, and next to it is a kids' space for children to play while waiting, which is great for families with kids. The quality of the meat was excellent, with freshness evident in every bite. The Yukhoe, tongue, and kalbi were all delicious, and the salad and cucumber were fresh and tasty. I would definitely like to visit this restaurant again.

Yield Market is a yakiniku restaurant located about a 15-minute walk from Nishioji Station in Kyoto, which is the main store of the widely spread Yield Market Group in Kyoto. All the meats are delicious! I was impressed by the power of the main store. Here's a tip on how to enjoy the meat: Order yakiniku, rice, and grated garlic, then quickly grill the yakiniku and place it on top of the rice. Pour the tororo egg sauce, which is the marinade for the yakiniku, over it and top it with grated garlic! This will make your brain explode with flavor. It's like a mind-blowing rice bowl!

Popular yakiniku restaurant! Made a reservation on Wednesday for Saturday. Only available reservation times were 5pm and 8pm, so reserved for 5pm. There is a parking lot next to the restaurant with space for 15 cars, which fills up quickly so it's better to arrive early. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is calm, but the staff are lively. The meat was delicious, the grill was changed quickly, and there was hardly any wait for drinks and food despite the large number of customers. The restroom was also very clean. After eating, there was hardly any smell of yakiniku on clothes or hair. Definitely a restaurant I want to visit again.

I went to eat for the first time!! I was very satisfied. It's not possible to make a reservation on weekends and holidays, so when I visited the restaurant directly at 6:30, there were about 7 groups waiting. There is a parking lot, but it's hard to find a space, so I parked on the side street and waited in line. We arrived at 6:30 and entered at 7:30, waiting for about 1 hour. The meat was delicious, and cheap too!! Two women ate until they were full for about 12,000 yen. It's no wonder that they were chosen as one of the top 100 restaurants on Tabelog! One thing to note is that the staff seemed a bit disorganized.

On New Year's night, my family (including my wife's parents and my parents) celebrated my daughter's birthday with a long-awaited visit to Mitsuichi-san♡ We were able to make a reservation over the phone, they have parking available, and most importantly, you can enjoy delicious and reasonably priced yakiniku. We waited in the car for our turn, then were called in and led upstairs to a private room (total of 8 people). I love the yakiniku here and always end up praising the salt-grilled meat. We enjoyed tongue salt, thin-sliced salt-grilled meat, salt-marinated kalbi, and roast beef shabu-shabu, all with salt as usual. Our parents also enjoyed the salt-grilled meat, exclaiming how delicious it was. In addition, we had Mitsuichi salad, grilled upper intestine with salt, egg soup, white rice with kalbi sauce, roast sauce, stone pot bibimbap, and more, each person eating their favorite dishes and feeling satisfied. For me, I closed the meal with white rice and tail soup, and finished with roast or harami, and liver. Finally, I was completely satisfied with black honey kinako ice cream. This restaurant offers delicious, reasonably priced yakiniku and is the best yakiniku restaurant in my opinion♡ It was a fantastic day, thank you for the meal! PS We ate to our hearts' content and it came out to a little over 5000 yen per person.

I finally made it to Masaichi, a place I've been wanting to go for a long time! I tried the Negi Shio Kalbi, Masaichi's light Roast, Marbled Kalbi, Marinated Hormone (round intestine), Salt-grilled Tongue, and Kimchi trio. Everyone has their own preferences, but for me, the Salt-grilled Tongue was not my favorite. The Negi Shio Kalbi and Salt-grilled Tongue stuck to the grill so much that it was difficult to eat (even though I made sure the grill was in perfect condition). The Kimchi was delicious! Next time, I want to try the location in Gion, not the main store!

JR Nishi-Oji Station - about 1km southwest (15 minutes on foot) from there, on the west side of the intersection of Route 171 Nishikojin! In the southern part of Kyoto city, there is a yakiniku restaurant that has branches in ①Main Store (Kichijoin) ②Higashi Store (Nishikujo) ③Sakaimachi Nishiki Store ④Hachijo-guchi Store. The area near the Kichijoin Main Store is close to the Kyoto City Wholesale Second Market where fresh and cheap meat is sold, giving a good impression. Until recently, they only opened in the evening, but I heard a rumor that they have started serving lunch boxes during the day. I visited and ordered the Tan Shio (salted beef tongue) based on the appearance of the menu board, while debating between the Yakiniku Bento (¥1100) or the Gyutan Negi Shio Bento (¥1480). The two-tiered bento box included ①Kimchi ②Namul ③Korean seaweed ④Potato salad, and 9 types of daily side dishes. They even offer free extra rice, providing a new and enjoyable experience of affordable yakiniku.

My family of four visited the main branch of Sakae Market. In the first half of January, we used it for our annual New Year's barbecue. It is quite a popular restaurant in Yoshikyo-in Kaiwai. We had a variety of dishes such as salted tongue, dragon loin, salted loin, frost-covered kalbi, inner thigh, and harami. They were all delicious. The total came to about 23,000 yen, which was cheaper than I expected. I will definitely go back again. ^_^

I went there after a long time! You can't make reservations on Sundays, so when I arrived before opening, there were already a few groups waiting for the reception to start! There were still some seats available on the second floor, so we got a tatami room. At first, the staff took our orders directly, and from the second time, we ordered through a touch panel. However, it was also okay to order directly from the staff after the second time. My child's favorite is the tan shichu. The meat is incredibly tender and delicious! They have children's menu options and children's meat as well, and there is a space for changing diapers, so you can enjoy dining out with peace of mind. The meat is delicious without a doubt, and the monthly special chijimi is also recommended. This time, it was lotus root and beef tendon stew chijimi. The staff's service is good, everything is delicious, and I will definitely go back!

To the stable Masuichi-san. The orders may come out in a different order, but they are served in the order you should eat them, which is impressive. The salted tongue was cooked lightly to my liking and was incredibly delicious. The highlight for me this time was the seared fatty tuna. I will definitely have it again next time! We also had the dragon loin and today's three kinds of meat platter. The recommended sagari, kainomi, and grilled chuck flap were delicious. I love the urute. The seasonal Kujo green onion pancake, kimchi, and namul were also really tasty. Thank you for the meal ♡

On Saturday night, my family of five decided to go out for dinner, and we chose to go for yakiniku, which can be intimidating to go to alone. After searching online, we found this highly-rated restaurant in the area of Yoshijin. Although we had heard of the restaurant before, it was our first time visiting. We made a reservation and decided to start our feast at 7:00 pm. When we arrived at the restaurant on time, there was a crowd of customers waiting outside. Seeing how popular it was, we realized that visiting without a reservation would be risky. Even with our reservation, we had to wait for about 5 minutes to be seated. It seemed that the turnover of customers was causing delays. We had pre-booked the seasonal "Autumn Course" for 4,000 yen. Here is a breakdown of the dishes we enjoyed: - Appetizers: Assorted appetizers (kimchi, tofu, chashu with yuzu pepper) and beef tongue carpaccio. The chashu had a great flavor and paired well with the yuzu pepper. The beef tongue carpaccio was thinly sliced and had a refreshing taste with the sweet and sour sauce. - Specialty: Cod roe pancake. This unique pancake with cod roe paste on the surface was surprisingly delicious. It was a great combination of grilled cod roe and pancake. - Salt platter: Grilled beef tongue, thick-cut lamp meat, negi salt kalbi, grilled hoso. All the meats were tender and flavorful. The generous servings of leeks and grated radish were a nice touch. - (Additional) Thick mushroom grill: This dish took time to cook but was worth the wait. It was thick and flavorful, and I enjoyed it with salt. - Main dish: Wagyu beef shabu-shabu. We dipped the meat in a mixture of miso and raw egg. The fatty beef belly and leaner beef belly were both delicious. The dipping sauce was rich, almost like sukiyaki, and went well with rice. We finished by pouring the remaining egg over rice, which was a delightful ending. - (Additional) Egg soup: Since the course did not include soup, we ordered this additional item. It had a hint of sesame oil, which I enjoyed. - Sauce platter: Marbled kalbi, light roast, masuichi kalbi. These were the final meat dishes of the course, with a rich sauce. They were all tender and tasty. The masuichi kalbi was served in blocks and cut with scissors, allowing us to enjoy the flavorful meat. - Dessert: Gion Kinana ice cream. Served in a small cup, this ice cream with kinako had a pleasant sweetness and was a delicious way to end the meal. Despite the lack of privacy due to the absence of dividers at the table, causing some noise from other customers, the high-quality meat and generous portions of the Autumn Course made it a satisfying dining experience. We each had a beer and managed to keep the bill under 5,000 yen per person, which felt like a good deal. Though the atmosphere could be a bit rowdy at times, the delicious food made up for it. Overall, it was a great yakiniku experience.

It's been a while since I visited Masuichi-san. Despite being located in a residential area, it's always crowded - they have everything I love, from various cuts of meat to yukhoe. It's not the best location, but I'm always happy to be close to my workplace. It used to be a retail shop as well, and I would be thrilled if it made a comeback. It's one of my top three favorite yakiniku restaurants! Thank you for the delicious meal.

It's not incredibly delicious, but it's convenient and easy to go to, so I use it. When I called the East store on this day, I was told that there might be a wait of about an hour because it was the weekend. When I called the main store, they said that they couldn't make reservations, but they could seat people in the order they arrived, and there were currently a few seats available, so it would be okay to come right away. The taste was the same as always. The customer service was a bit better than before, as they seemed to have passed the peak of business.

I wanted to have yakiniku for dinner while exploring Kyoto, so I chose this restaurant. The place is spacious and has a nice atmosphere, but there was a long wait because many people were waiting. It took about an hour for the phone at the parking lot to ring. When ordering, there were no recommended meats, which was disappointing, but the meat looked delicious so I ordered it. All the meats were above average, but you get what you pay for. The most delicious was the ribeye, served in thick slices like a steak. When cooked to medium rare, it was tender and delicious. The seared liver also felt fresh, with a sharp edge to the slices. When lightly seared, it was almost like raw liver sashimi. The cut seemed to be sirloin, and with the sweet sauce, ordering a raw egg and eating it sukiyaki style was the right choice! It went really well with the sauce and was incredibly delicious. There are also many side menu options, making it suitable for enjoying with family or friends at a leisurely pace. Kyoto has a high level of yakiniku restaurants, so choosing a restaurant is enjoyable.

I went to Mokuichi with my colleagues, which I have visited several times. We ordered white kimchi, radish kimchi, bean sprout namul, pig's trotters, chijimi, beef tongue, kalbi, sagari, new naengmyeon, and special naengmyeon. Overall, the food was delicious. Especially the chijimi was so tasty! Also, I personally preferred the special naengmyeon over the new naengmyeon. The service was polite and good. Thank you for the meal.

I have always treated myself to this restaurant. This time, I went with my work team for a celebration. We had a course with all-you-can-drink option. Everyone got excited with the various meats that kept coming. The quality of the meat was excellent. The drinks in the all-you-can-drink menu were all delicious. It's a bit pricey, but the restaurant is nice and the private rooms are great. Personally, I was happy to see wine included in the all-you-can-drink option. I will definitely come back.

The location of this restaurant is a bit difficult, isn't it? I always go with a senior who doesn't drink. It's hell not to be able to drink with yakiniku, but luckily there are people who can. I love the specialty green onion salt kalbi with its visual presentation. The cabbage kimchi is also delicious, with large pieces and a proper fermented taste. I will visit again!

The accompanying person made a reservation and we visited the restaurant. It's a popular place, with both reserved and walk-in customers constantly coming in. We ordered the Masuichi course, which included Napa cabbage kimchi, cholegi salad, chijimi, salt-grilled meats (tongue, chewy tongue, thick-cut thigh, green onion salted loin), today's recommended meat - sukiyaki flavor (or special refreshing sauce flavor), tare-yaki (karubi, light loin, top kalbi, Masuichi kalbi), green onion shiso rice, and sorbet. It was nice to be able to try a variety of dishes in small portions. As someone who doesn't like leeks, I was grateful for the crispy zucchini chijimi which was delicious! Some of the meats were a bit tough, but overall, they were tasty. There were two types of sauces provided, but I would have been happier with a sweeter sauce. My companion, who is from Kumamoto, mentioned that they are more used to sweet sauces back home. The green onion shiso rice was incredibly delicious when eaten with the meat. I wish I could have had seconds, haha. I also wanted to try the hormone dishes. Thank you for the meal.
