Enjoy Sour Tower Wagyu Charcoal Grill Yakiniku Hormone Yaki Nikusei Monya 25-89 on Tabelog 3.21, a 2-3 minute walk from Shinjuku Nishiguchi. It is a very lively yakiniku restaurant that can be used by individuals as well as groups in the Nishiguchi area. It has a casual atmosphere of a yakiniku restaurant combined with an izakaya. When you sit down, a shichirin (charcoal grill) is prepared for you. We ordered Negi Shio Gyutan (6 pieces), Oomori Gyuhormon, Gyusandomino, and Kuroge Wagyu Tokumoriawase. It is fun to gather around the shichirin and grill the meat, stimulating your appetite! All of the meats were tender and delicious. It may seem like a small portion for men, but it is just right for women. This restaurant directly sources Wagyu and hormone from wholesalers in Shibaura, so it is popular for its affordability. By using course meals, all-you-can-drink options, and LINE coupons, you can enjoy even more reasonable prices. Thank you for the meal.

On a Saturday evening in Shinjuku, all the izakayas were full and I wandered around for 20 minutes until I luckily found an empty seat and joined a drinking party. The all-you-can-drink for 100 minutes at 1,600 yen was very reasonable! The food portions were small, but they were excellent as drinking snacks, and grilling them on the shichirin (charcoal grill) was fun. The ventilation was a bit weak, but it added to the charm. Drinking and eating for only 4,000 yen per person is cheap!

I went to this bustling restaurant in Shinjuku! I was really hungry so I opted for the all-you-can-eat option. I also added the all-you-can-drink option where sour drinks come out of the tap. The meat was pretty good for an all-you-can-eat place! The pork tongue was big and tasty. It's a good place for an occasional visit. Thank you for the meal!

The restaurant started at 20:30. When I asked if I could enter around 20:00, it happened to have availability at this time. The atmosphere was pleasant, with a good vibe from the female staff. I opted for the all-you-can-eat option for 4400 yen, which included beef tongue and Japanese black beef. By registering on LINE, I got a free soft drink. Orders were placed using an iPad-like device. However, I could only order up to 4 plates at a time, so I had to place continuous orders. The Japanese black beef I had initially expected was not as I had imagined, more like thinly sliced pieces with a barbecue-like taste. After that, the dishes I ordered did not arrive, which was different from the all-you-can-eat concept. Nevertheless, the young female staff were working hard. Eventually, the beef tongue with green onions arrived, which was three servings. I realized that the regular serving size was small, so I ordered more generously from then on. The special beef, lean meat, marinated ribs, and seasoned ribs were particularly good. The bibimbap was average, and the egg on rice was served with room-temperature egg and barbecue sauce. The Korean seaweed was served in a bag, and the cold noodles were average. The pickled radish was too soft and soaked, while the pickled cabbage was tastier. The marinated ribs and special beef that came towards the end looked appealing. Dessert for the day was vanilla ice cream. Overall, the quality of the meat was average, and I felt satisfied after visiting once. It would have been appreciated if more dishes were served quickly within the time frame. After the closing time, I ordered noodles and Comtang soup for the finale. I stayed until a little past 22:00. I regretted overeating on the way home, as usual... ===========

There is a restaurant similar to Tokiwa-tei with a server on the table, where you can drink as much as you want within a time limit. I always make sure to visit restaurants that serve table lemon sours. You don't have to worry about ordering, and in just 2 hours, you can drink 7-8 glasses, so... I'm starting to think about writing a review of table lemon sour restaurants these days. This restaurant is closer to the Seibu Shinjuku Line rather than Shinjuku West Exit. Since I went early, there were empty seats. (It was full by the time I left before 6 pm.) Grilling hormone while drinking lemon sour... it's great, isn't it? The bill was just under 4000 yen for 2 hormones and a 2-hour stay. With 7 glasses per person and hormones included, this is cheap. It was cost-effective. The hormone was also reasonably delicious. I would like to come back again. Thank you for the meal!

A casual yakiniku restaurant located about a 7-8 minute walk from Shinjuku Station West Exit. It was quite empty during Saturday dinner time due to the current situation with COVID-19. They are not serving alcohol at the moment. The quality of the meat is average with nothing particularly outstanding, but the negi salt was delicious. The portion size is a bit small, but considering the price, it's decent. It would be nice to have more variety in side dishes as it can get a bit monotonous. The staff were polite and made the dining experience pleasant. They accept cashless payment, which is convenient.

I visited a restaurant that had a half-price lunch menu sign out front. The lunch menu consisted of options like grilled meat, rice bowls, and cold noodles. While only two types of grilled meat were clearly marked as half-price, it seemed that other items were also discounted. I ordered the half-price grilled meat set and the black beef marinated set. The food was served quickly, with a variety of meats like tongue, skirt steak, and loin, all marinated in a sweet sauce. The black beef was thicker and had a more satisfying texture. The meal also included rice, soup, kimchi, and salad, all of high quality. Overall, it was a good value meal.

We tried the easy and affordable yakiniku all-you-can-eat and drink course for 90 minutes at 3,550 yen! It is located just a short walk from Shinjuku West Exit. We arrived around 6 pm on a Saturday night and the place was packed! Reservations are a must! The first surprise was the faucet on the table...? It's the "Instant Sour Tower"! You can choose your favorite syrup and pour your own sour to make your own drink. It was a new experience where you can drink the amount you want when you want. My favorite syrup was the "Awaji Island Navel Orange" with lots of fruit juice. The specialty wagyu beef marinated in sauce includes kata shank, zabuton, triangle belly, and brisket trimmings! The shapes may be different, but the taste is definitely there! The meat marinated in sauce is grilled on charcoal, making a sizzling sound. Grilling over charcoal adds a delicious smoky flavor to the meat. The level of this meat being included in the all-you-can-eat menu is amazing! They also offer a variety of side dishes. The hormone assortment and creamy egg rice set is a must-order item! They offer fresh domestic hormones sourced from Shibaura, cutting out middlemen to provide affordable and fresh hormones. The plump hormones on top of rice with a warm egg and Korean seaweed is delicious! You can enjoy a wide range of meats from black beef to fresh hormones. The extensive side menu is also a plus!

I visited during lunchtime and it was empty, probably due to the ongoing pandemic (which was reassuring). I ordered Oz's half-price set, but it was not enough so I ordered more. The meat was delicious and the white rice cooked in the pot was very tasty.

I found a great restaurant where you can grill your own meat at the table. They start you off with a charcoal grill, which feels nice and warm. They offer a "tare mori" option where you can adjust the amount of sauce for each gram of meat you order, which is great for when you want to eat a lot. The meat is high-quality Japanese beef with a beautiful red color that really whets your appetite. And the raw liver (which is actually cooked at a low temperature) was also delicious!

A restaurant located just across the intersection from the west exit of Shinjuku Station. It's almost a monthly tradition to meet up with friends here. The name "25-89" seems to be the registration number of a vendor at the Shibaura Market, which indicates that they specialize in fresh Wagyu beef directly from Shibaura. We reserved a course with drinks included. The appetizers were namul and kimchi, followed by the rare dish yukhoe, thickly sliced tongue with salt, and a platter of 5 different cuts of Wagyu beef including some rare cuts. The grilled shabu-shabu was served with a sauce containing raw egg yolk. We also had japchae, steamed clay pot rice, and sherbet for dessert. We enjoyed our drinks which included draft beer, sweet potato shochu, and chilled sake. Unfortunately, due to COVID precautions, the restaurant was not very busy on the day of our visit, but it was a relief to avoid crowded spaces. Safety first.

After work, I met up with some friends I hadn't seen in a while. We toasted with a lemon highball and enjoyed a selection of premium Japanese beef - Katashin, Sangobara, Zabuton, Brisket, and a mix of peppers. They were all delicious, but the standout was the Sangobara, so tender and flavorful. I also had a Maker's highball and some specially selected roast beef shabu-shabu, a classic favorite of mine. We couldn't resist ordering some homemade avocado shrimp jeon to go with our barbecue. Surprisingly, the combination worked really well. I even thought about trying to make it at home. The freshly cooked rice in a clay pot, using Yamagata's Tsuyahime rice, was a delightful treat. They cook it after you order, so you get to enjoy it piping hot. Despite not usually eating much rice with barbecue, I couldn't resist indulging in this freshly cooked rice. The ventilation was good, and they seemed to have solid COVID-19 precautions in place. I definitely plan on stopping by again after work.

Recommended Points ★ Fresh meat from Shibaura Market ★ Firm and plump clay pot rice ★ Clean and well-ventilated interior thanks to a friend who invited me to a yakiniku restaurant where you can eat delicious lean meat! It's been a long time since I've been to Nishi-Shinjuku, and the last time I went there, Shinjuku Station had changed slightly. After wandering around a bit, I arrived near Kashiwagi Park and found "25-89" on the 1st floor, which is easily recognizable. At first glance, it looks like an izakaya-style restaurant, and even people dining alone casually walk in, showing that it is a yakiniku restaurant that is closely related to everyday life. They are currently participating in the Goto campaign! The numbers in the restaurant name are the meat wholesale dealer numbers! You can enjoy high-quality black wagyu beef sourced from the meat market in Tamachi and Shibaura at a good cost-performance ratio at "25-89." Enjoy a dinner full of lean meat at this restaurant. <Kakuteki> A perfect appetizer for yakiniku, kimchi with a crispy texture and a moderate spiciness. <Freshly cooked clay pot rice> Made with Yonezawa-produced Tsuyahime rice. You might think, "Rice at this timing?" But after cooking for 15 minutes, there is a resting time, so ordering it early and savoring it with sauce or topping it with namul for bibimbap is also okay. The clay pot rice is deliciously chewy whether it's warm or cooled. <Specialty sauce platter> The popular "Specialty Sauce Platter" allows you to enjoy the top cuts starting from 100g, offering a great taste and cost performance. On the day of my visit, I had hormone, loin, kalbi, and liver. First, try a small portion with the sauce platter, and then order your favorite cuts until you're full. <Selected wagyu platter> A platter of five rare cuts with beautiful marbling - Katashin, Burisuke, Togarashi, Sankakubara, and Zabuton. Katashin has the most chewiness, Sankakubara is tender, and Zabuton has a sweet fat taste. Enjoy it with clay pot rice and finish off with a meat-filled meal. <Misuji> I ordered misuji in my quest to try all the rare cuts. This large piece of misuji melts in your mouth with its fluffy texture. <White peach sake soda> A gently sweet and fizzy drink that doesn't overpower the sweetness of the fat. The retro Showa-era atmosphere and the excitement of grilling meat around the shichirin make the dining experience enjoyable. They also offer kimchi with seafood, avocado chijimi that is popular among women, and bibimbap with truffles that are sure to create a buzz. In addition to table seats, there are also sunken kotatsu-style seats, and you might consider upgrading to the all-you-can-eat course for better cost performance. Since there are many customers even after 8 pm, it is recommended to make a reservation.

I went to this restaurant because my usual yakiniku place was fully booked and I was craving for some grilled meat. To be honest, I felt that the taste was not worth the price, so I probably won't come back. Maybe I compared it too much to my usual place, which made me feel that the price was higher and the taste was just okay. However, the atmosphere, location, and the staff were nice!

Today, I went to a highly competitive yakiniku restaurant. It seems like it used to be an izakaya, the interior design gives that vibe. The space is not too cramped, which is nice. The highlight of today's meal was the rice cooked in a clay pot! I usually don't eat rice with yakiniku, but today I made an exception. First, the meat. We ordered all the different cuts of wagyu beef. It was served in four slices per portion, which was perfect for our group of four. Surprisingly, the brisket, which I thought had too much fat, was the most delicious. Of course, the horumon (offal) was also great. Even the liver was tasty. And the rice was truly delicious. It was fluffy and had a nice crispy bottom. I left the restaurant fully satisfied with the delicious rice and meat. I definitely want to come back here. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

This thickly sliced beef tongue ❤️ and the selection of 5 types of premium Japanese beef cuts were all delicious, with unique cuts that were very tasty. The freshness of the meat can even be seen in the photos. The restaurant "25-89" in Shinjuku West Exit is a place where you can enjoy high-quality meat purchased from Shibaura Meat Market. Eating fresh meat on a charcoal grill was a truly happy moment. The Negi-tan, Namul, Yukke, and everything else we ate was delicious. Shinjuku is always crowded and can be overwhelming, but when you want to casually enjoy delicious yakiniku, I highly recommend this place. ❤️

We decided to have our year-end party in Shinjuku this time! We visited Nikusen Monya, a restaurant known for its charcoal-grilled Japanese beef and freshly cooked clay pot rice. The reason why the prices are reasonable is because they directly purchase from Shibaura, bypassing the wholesale dealers, so you can enjoy affordable and fresh Japanese beef. Charcoal-grilled meat on a shichirin grill just tastes different, right?! It becomes juicy. The drinks selection is extensive with beer, highball, shochu, wine, plum wine, and more. Tonight, we ordered the following: 3 types of appetizers, green onion beef tongue, domestic brand chicken and pork kalbi, wrapped vegetables, butcher's beef croquette, vegetable chapchae, three types of Japanese beef, hell hot pot or cold noodles, seasonal dessert. The appetizers included kimchi, bean sprouts, and green vegetable namul. The kimchi had just the right amount of sourness. The green onion beef tongue was thick and juicy with excellent saltiness. The domestic brand chicken and pork kalbi was piled high on the plate and was juicy, crispy, and flavorful even without any sauce. Highly recommended. The lettuce went well with it. Freshly cooked rice (1 serving) was brought to the table in a clay pot. The pot was bubbling. It was said to be ready in about 15 minutes. A timer was set. The steam rose. Freshly cooked rice and meat! The best!! This is on the level of a high-class Japanese restaurant. The butcher's beef croquette was something I was really looking forward to! It looked delicious in the photos. It did not disappoint, with a crispy and fluffy croquette. The vegetable chapchae looked hearty but had a light texture and taste. It was a refreshing dish that also served as a palate cleanser. The three types of Japanese beef included katasin, zabuton, and sankakubara. It was clear from the start that the meat was of high quality! Each cut was flavorful, tender, and juicy. You can enjoy premium cuts at a very reasonable price. For the finale, we chose either hell hot pot or cold noodles. We opted for the refreshing cold noodles. The flavor was rich yet light, and it went down smoothly. Despite the casual izakaya-like atmosphere, the taste was outstanding. It felt very Shinjuku. Search for Shinjuku 25-89!

I went to a very cost-effective yakiniku restaurant where you can enjoy authentic yakiniku using a shichirin grill. I ordered a la carte instead of a course, and during happy hour, I was able to enjoy draft beer and lemon sour for only 190 yen each. Not only was it cheap, but the taste of the meat was authentic, and I could try various cuts in small portions. The rice was freshly cooked brand rice, shiny and really delicious. The side menu was also very tasty, especially the butter garlic which had a tempting aroma that enhanced the meat and rice. The comtan kuppak that I ordered as a finale was so delicious that I finished it quickly even though I was already full. The soup had a very mild flavor, making it a perfect ending. Even though we ordered as much as we wanted, the total bill for two people was just over 10,000 yen. The cost performance is so good that I would definitely go back if there was a restaurant nearby! It's a place I would like to visit again.

A shop where you can enjoy charcoal-grilled wagyu beef and freshly cooked clay pot rice. The reason why the prices are reasonable is because they purchase directly from Shibaura. By bypassing the wholesale dealer, you can eat cheap and fresh wagyu beef! The interior of the shop, lined with lanterns, has a casual dining hall atmosphere. It's a lively and enjoyable place to eat. There are plenty of seats, so it's okay to come with a large group. There is also a tatami room at the back for banquets. A reliable shop that can be used for various purposes. This time, since there were two of us, we ordered a la carte instead of a course. We tried ordering the recommended dishes from the shop one by one! ・Assorted Wagyu Beef Five Kinds First, the meat. Assorted meat is recommended! Rare cuts like zabuton and burisuke are included, making it a great deal. It's fun to grill them on the shichirin! Just looking at it stimulates your appetite. The meat is tender! It has just the right amount of fat, allowing you to fully enjoy the flavor of the meat. The grilling sauce is provided on the table, so you can dip as much as you like. Being able to eat one piece of various cuts keeps it interesting! Grilling on charcoal is great because it generates far-infrared rays, resulting in a crispy outside and a warm inside! Charcoal-grilled wagyu beef is the best! There is a wide variety of drinks available, such as beer, highball, shochu, wine, etc. Happy hour until 7 pm, with one drink costing only 190 yen! We toasted with juice (laughs). We also asked the staff for recommendations for side dishes and ordered various items! ・Seafood Wrapped Kimchi Bomb This kind of kimchi is a first for me! The kimchi is wrapped in a ball-like shape. The visual impact is amazing! Cut it with scissors and eat it in a hearty style. The filling includes scallops, shrimp, cucumber, nagaimo, pine nuts, kimchi, and yanninjan. A luxurious kimchi with plenty of seafood! The taste and texture are varied, and you can't stop eating! ・Aged Wagyu Yukhoe I'm looking forward to the yukhoe. Yukhoe is eaten by mixing it with vegetables and egg yolk. It's very light because it contains apples. Not greasy! It's light and delicious! The aged wagyu beef also has a good aroma and tastes delicious. Elegant seasoning. The combination of different textures of meat and vegetables is also good. ・Freshly Cooked Rice (1 serving) A clay pot was brought to the table! Exciting! The pot is bubbling. It takes about 15 minutes to cook. They set a timer for us. When steam rises from the top, it gets exciting! The freshly cooked rice was served in a bowl by the staff. Chewy and sticky rice! It's irresistible to white rice lovers. Freshly cooked rice and meat! The best! I don't usually eat white rice much, but at that time, I couldn't help but have a bowl (laughs). ・Tomato Avocado Salad A simple avocado and tomato salad. The color is good and appetizing. It's lighter than it looks, and you can't stop eating! ・Avocado Shrimp Jeon I definitely wanted to eat jeon! It's rare to have shrimp and avocado in it. Dip it in a spicy sauce with plenty of sesame. It's easy to eat because it's cut. It's deliciously chewy! It's like a soft futon (laughs). The prawn's firm texture is good. The seaweed also does a good job. It's so delicious that you can eat as much as you want. ・Negi Shio Gyutan Finally, we ordered the tongue salt! It's exciting to wait for it to grill on the shichirin. It's well grilled. It's salty. It's the best when squeezed with lemon! ・Komtang Soup We ordered Komtang soup as a finish. The soup is powerful! It's just the right amount for 2-3 people to share. It's simmered until it falls apart. Komtang soup contains collagen and vitamins, so it's good for women's beauty. Well, I'm quite full! Overall, the impression is that it's very reasonable for wagyu beef! The dishes are not greasy, but light and enjoyable.

Grilled wagyu beef cooked over charcoal is delicious! The selection of 5 premium wagyu beef cuts was excellent. Each cut had its own characteristics (tender, fatty, etc.) and it was enjoyable to grill them over charcoal and savor the differences in the meat. It's difficult to use charcoal at home, so I think it tastes even better over charcoal. The freshly cooked rice that takes 30 minutes to cook in a kettle, using Yamagata's Tsuyahime rice, was truly outstanding! The shiny rice was so delicious. I always want to have tasty white rice when eating grilled meat, so it was perfect! During Happy Hour (until 7 pm), beer, sours, and chu-hi drinks are only 190 yen, which was surprisingly cheap and made me happy. The restaurant has a nostalgic atmosphere, but it recently underwent a renewal and even changed its name, so it looked clean and fresh.
