At my home, we eat beef in the summer to endure the heat. We decided to have yakiniku after a meeting, so we made a reservation at a unique restaurant called "Shishoku" that we had been wanting to try. The restaurant is located near Akasaka-Mitsuke Station, down a narrow alley off Akasaka Misuji Street. It has a stylish and atmospheric exterior. It seems to be a three-story building, with private rooms on the upper floors. We were seated at the counter on the first floor. We toasted with drinks, and although champagne was recommended, we opted for draft beer as our throats were parched from the heat. - Chilled Kelanchim: A Korean-style chawanmushi with seaweed and white fish. It was refreshing and perfect for the hot weather. - Black Wagyu Filet Cutlet Sandwich: It came out unexpectedly early, and the deliciousness of this filet cutlet sandwich was truly impressive. The flavor of the meat was condensed into an amazing sandwich. It was satisfying enough on its own. The assorted grilled meats that followed, such as tongue, skirt steak, rib core, kainomi, and tenderloin, were served with exquisite cooking techniques to complement the meat. - Grilled Meat Assortment: Tongue/Skirt Steak - Grilled Meat Assortment II: Rib Core/Kainomi/Tenderloin - "Inochi no Ichi" by Soga-san and Panchan The deliciousness of the white rice cooked in a clay pot was also outstanding. It was so good with the Korean-style rice accompaniments and grilled meats that we ended up having multiple servings. - Grilled Meat Assortment III: Rib Core/Rib Maki/Kainomi/Tenderloin/Skirt Steak - Tteokguk Soup Finally, we dipped the remaining egg in the soup after eating the meat and poured it over rice for a finishing touch. Our stomachs were already full. The dessert was a peach parfait, which was a bit heavy after all the rich meats. The service was great, the atmosphere of the restaurant was lovely, and the food was delicious. Overall, it's a fantastic restaurant with nothing to complain about. Thank you for the meal.

They always provide a consistently delicious experience. It's perfect for entertaining guests. Today it was crowded so we were in a private room, but the quality was still excellent. The sauce that enhances the flavor of the meat and the presentation of the Chateaubriand bowl could use a little more creativity. The grilled eel was also satisfying.

First time at Shishoku-san. This time, we used the private room on the 3rd floor. The private room was very spacious and stylish, and all the meat was grilled, making it suitable for a stylish date ✨ The meals we had were *Black Wagyu loin sashimi *Beef fillet cutlet sandwich *Summer truffle salad *Grilled eel *Grilled Black Wagyu tongue harami steak *Beef loin and "Voice of Life" *Grilled assortment (sauce) *Vinegar citrus cold noodles *Peach parfait. It was unusual to have a cutlet sandwich coming out early on, but it was amazing when hungry. The fillet was very tender and went well with mustard. The summer truffle salad was also really delicious. The saltiness of the beef thigh prosciutto and the aroma of the summer truffle were outstanding. The grilled white eel from Isshiki, Aichi Prefecture was fragrant and the meat was fluffy and amazing. All the meat dishes were delicious, but the tongue and harami were exceptional. The tongue had 3 different cuts, each with a perfect texture and cooking. The harami was incredibly tender and juicy. The sauces were also delicious. Overall, the quality of the meat and the cooking were exceptional. The menu seems to change with the seasons, so I would like to visit again.

The 18,000 yen course meal with rice and side dishes was incredibly delicious, and before I knew it, I had eaten almost three bowls of rice. I kept asking for more servings. By the time I left the restaurant, I was so full that I could hardly walk. The meat was also delicious, and the service was great. I definitely want to visit again.

I was able to enjoy a course meal at this yakiniku restaurant. The service was of high quality and easy to make a reservation. The menu included dishes such as wagyu tartare with caviar, abalone with pickled kimchi, beef tenderloin cutlet sandwich, beef tenderloin shabu-shabu, turtle soup with ginseng, grilled assorted meats, ribeye, and chateaubriand bowl.

The restaurant was a bit hard to find, but the 30,000 yen course was amazing starting from the first dish. I love raw meat, so the katsu sandwich was perfect for me. The first half of the course was great, but the second half was a bit heavy. The katsu sandwich was juicy and the meat was tender and delicious. I didn't feel too full after the well-balanced course, and the peach melba dessert was delicious. The muscat tea after the meal had a nice aroma and flavor. The atmosphere was stylish and although I was nervous at first, the director was friendly and made it a great dining experience. I heard they are developing new menus, so I definitely want to go back!

The atmosphere of the restaurant is more like enjoying fusion cuisine than a traditional yakiniku place. It has a high-end feel and the price is around 25,000 yen per person. Everything is delicious, but I would be happier if there were more impactful meat dishes besides the katsu sandwich.

In Akasaka Mitsuke, there is a trendy and innovative yakiniku restaurant called "Shishoku," pronounced as "Oboshimeshi." The entrance is stylish and atmospheric, hidden in an alley. The interior is also well-designed, creating a great ambiance. Starting with a unique Namul dish made with white shrimp and mousse, the flavors of sesame oil and garlic blend well with a perfect sweetness. Next, the sashimi-style loin with plenty of marbled fat melts in the mouth, offering a delicious experience. The Kai no Mi, a rare cut, was especially tasty when grilled. The spacious interior and wide seating arrangement allowed for a leisurely dining experience. The great atmosphere makes this type of yakiniku dining a nice change of pace!

This was my first experience with innovative Korean BBQ. "What is innovative Korean BBQ?" I thought as I approached this day. Overall, it felt like a fusion of French cuisine and Korean BBQ. The strong garlic flavor typical of Korean BBQ sauce was minimal, allowing the refined taste of the meat to shine through. In particular, the moment I put a piece of black wagyu beef loin sashimi in my mouth, the fat melted with the warmth, creating an incredibly delicious experience. The pacing of the dishes was just right. This restaurant is highly recommended for dates or business entertaining!

I went to a restaurant called Omoi Shoku that I had been curious about for a while! The restaurant is located in a somewhat narrow alley-like street. To enter the restaurant, you have to open the door and go inside! It felt like a secret hideout, haha. The meat was very delicious, especially the katsu sandwich! The service from the staff was also great!

Hidden in the back alleys of Akasaka, this innovative yakiniku restaurant offers a unique dining experience. I was lucky enough to secure a reservation and decided to visit. The staff at the restaurant cook all the meat for you. The meal started with Kelan Chim, a Korean steamed egg dish with edamame and sakura shrimp, which was a gentle and flavorful appetizer. Next up was the specialty dish: beef fillet cutlet sandwich. It was as delicious as rumored, with tender, flavorful meat and a hint of mustard. It might just be the best beef cutlet sandwich out there. The meal continued with a variety of grilled meats, including tongue and skirt steak, which were surprisingly tender and delicious. The next round of grilled meats were seasoned with salt and served with ponzu sauce, with the rib loin being a standout for its amazing flavor and tenderness. The meal also included "Inochi no Ichi" rice and panchan, which were both delightful. The rice was sweet and flavorful, and the panchan dishes, such as whitebait in garlic sauce and simmered beef, were unexpectedly delicious. The soup was also incredibly tasty and paired well with the rice. The meal ended with a passion fruit parfait, which was refreshing and tropical. Overall, I left the restaurant feeling satisfied and impressed by the innovative dishes and high-quality meat. The experience was a delightful departure from traditional yakiniku restaurants, showcasing the best of Korean cuisine.

Located about a 5-minute walk from Akasaka Mitsuke, this restaurant has a quiet and unassuming presence. Even though I wasn't particularly hungry, I decided to try their 30,000 yen course that includes a Chateaubriand rice bowl. I was worried about being able to finish it all, but surprisingly, I managed to eat everything with ease. The portion size was probably on the smaller side. The hirakatsu sandwich was incredibly delicious.

A little shop tucked away from the main street. The sign is very small, so it's easy to get a little lost. It seems to be a type of meat kaiseki cuisine. They create a stylish atmosphere, where you can enjoy high-quality meat dishes in a hearty manner.

The restaurant has a strong Korean influence, and each dish is performed with high quality. The private rooms seem convenient for various occasions, but is it common in Akasaka? Since it's a yakiniku restaurant, you can enjoy the different cuts of meat cooked to your liking. Taste: ★★★★, Value for money: ★★★, Customer service: ★★. This restaurant seems to have potential for further growth.

We reserved a hidden gem-like place for my husband's birthday celebration! I had high expectations based on the reviews and it did not disappoint. The interior of the restaurant was very well-designed and lovely. The meat was cooked with great care by the chef and was delicious. Especially the last dish, the filet mignon rice bowl with egg and truffle on top was amazing! The combination of meat, egg, and truffle was superb. I definitely want to go back and will make sure to visit again!
