After exiting the JR Shinjuku Station East Exit, head towards the East Exit and cross the signal towards Alta. Walk straight towards Kabukicho, passing by the Godzilla Road where Don Quijote is located. Turn right at the end of the road, then turn left at the kushikatsu restaurant to find the restaurant on the right side. It opened on December 1, 2022! I tried a variety of yakitori, including a salt assortment of 10 skewers. The assortment included kawa, bonjiri, sunagimo, momo, seseri, negima, liver, sasami, tsukune, and tebasaki. I also added pork belly and quail eggs with sauce. In addition to the above, they also offer pork tongue, sausage, shiitake mushrooms, garlic, and more. Yakitori goes surprisingly well with alcohol, so I enjoyed some highballs and lemon sours which were reasonably priced. Feeling like I needed more vegetables, I ordered the Caesar salad with soft-boiled egg. It's a delightful dish that Caesar salad lovers will enjoy. For dessert, I had the fondant chocolat. First, I tried it as is to savor the original flavor, then I added the vanilla ice cream on top. It's a treat recommended for those with a sweet tooth. The drink menu includes 99 yen (excluding tax) highballs and lemon sours, so I alternated between Jim Beam highballs and lemon sours from a specialty bar. *On weekdays, highballs and lemon sours are only 99 yen (excluding tax)! However, on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and the day before holidays, they are 250 yen (excluding tax). So if you want to enjoy highballs and lemon sours, it's best to visit on weekdays. Be careful not to drink too much, as the low prices may tempt you to have more than intended. Orders are placed by scanning the QR code next to the table with your smartphone, but you can also order verbally if you find it difficult. There are seating options on the 2nd and 3rd floors, but during my visit, the 3rd floor was under construction. Smoking is allowed, so if you smoke, please inform the staff to provide you with an ashtray. This restaurant is recommended for yakitori lovers as well as highball and lemon sour enthusiasts.

On June 28, 2023, I visited this restaurant for the first time with two friends. Located on Sakura Street in Kabukicho, this restaurant specializes in yakitori grilled over binchotan charcoal, offering a nostalgic Showa-era atmosphere. Despite the retro vibe, the restaurant actually opened just last year, and it does a great job of recreating the feel of a Showa-era yakitori joint. The establishment is quite luxurious for Kabukicho, spanning three floors. Due to the heat, we were seated on the second floor. Despite the Showa theme, ordering was done via smartphones by scanning the QR code on the table, a very modern touch. The QR code also allowed for sharing order history and splitting the bill, which was convenient. We started with a macaroni salad appetizer, which was surprisingly delicious. We ordered various yakitori skewers, with options starting from two skewers. The yakitori was cooked to perfection over binchotan charcoal, with each skewer offering a delicious flavor. The standout for me was the negima skewer, which was incredibly tasty. In addition to yakitori, we also tried dishes like beef tataki, scallion salt gyoza, and cheese balls, all of which were unique and flavorful. The drink menu was also impressive, with options like beer balls and lemon sour. The restaurant had a diverse clientele, with many foreign visitors enjoying the yakitori. Overall, the experience was fantastic, and I would highly recommend this restaurant for delicious yakitori in a nostalgic setting.

I went to take a peek at the newly popular Kabukicho Tower, but the entrance was already packed with people from afar, so I decided to leave. I was feeling thirsty after walking from Shinjuku station, so I decided to have a drink nearby. I was surprised to see the sign for "Yakitori Yarou," which opened relatively recently. On weekdays from Monday to Thursday, highballs and lemon sours are only ¥199, so I decided to go there without hesitation. You order by scanning a QR code on the table. It would be even better if the restaurant had free Wi-Fi. I started with a refreshing lemon sour. The chilled drink was perfect for my dry throat and body. The slightly spicy simmered appetizer went well with the drink. I also enjoyed some hot, melty cheese sticks while picking at edamame. I ordered two skewers of my favorite quail and bonjiri with salt seasoning. The fat from the yakitori really enhances the drinking experience. The quail was tender and delicious. I also ordered some beef short rib sushi as a light snack. The rare beef with wasabi was refreshing, and one plate per person would have been enough. I visited during the early hours when the restaurant had just opened, so there were no guests at first, but soon more and more customers arrived, showing how popular the place is. I recommend this place for a casual and cost-effective drink on weekdays. Follow me on Instagram for more foodie updates! @yumikohappylife https://www.instagram.com/yumikohappylife/

It's Sunday evening in Shinjuku, and I just finished watching a movie at TOHO Cinemas in Kabukicho. Now, I'm debating whether to head home and cook dinner myself or grab something to eat before heading back. I remember that a new building, Tokyu Kabukicho Tower, recently opened nearby. As I walk to the right after leaving the movie theater, I see the building's exterior, which doesn't seem very impressive to me. The designer mentioned on a TV show that it was inspired by a fountain, but I can't quite see it. Oh well, it's Kabukicho, so I guess it fits the vibe. I decide to explore the area and come across a new restaurant on Sakura Street. It looks empty from the outside, so I might be their first customer. I order some chicken skewers and a highball, and the food is served promptly. The skewers are lightly grilled, and I notice that the chef might not be used to grilling them to a crisp. I enjoy my meal while reading a book, but then it starts to drizzle outside. I realize I don't have an umbrella, so I quickly make my way back home, missing out on trying the chicken karage. Despite that, the skewers were satisfying, and I'm full enough to call it a night. Thank you for the meal. <Items Ordered> - Appetizer - Pork skewer - Seseri (chicken neck) - Skin - Bonjiri (chicken tail) - Quail eggs <Drinks> - Suntory Highball

I found a casual izakaya where you can have a quick drink in Shinjuku. It is located right in the heart of Kabukicho on the first floor. The open and inviting interior makes you feel like you are being drawn in. They offer a wide variety of dishes such as skewers, grilled items, sashimi, hot pot, and desserts. The impression is that about half of the customers have reservations, while the other half are walk-ins. The clientele is mainly young people and foreigners, given the location in Kabukicho. All orders are placed through scanning a QR code with a smartphone, which makes it convenient for everyone. This time, we ordered skewers as the main dish, including chicken breast (salt), chicken meatballs (sauce), chicken thigh with leek (sauce), tuna with green onion (sauce), a sashimi platter, grilled squid, and green tea ice cream. Skewers can be ordered starting from two pieces, with a choice of salt or sauce for each. The skewers are large and satisfying to eat, and it's great that they are served hot. Although we didn't try them this time, they also offer a variety of pork, beef, and vegetable skewers that looked delicious. The green tea ice cream was a perfect finish to the meal. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I went to the Tokyu Kabukicho Tower over the weekend, but it was so crowded that I couldn't even pass through "Shinjuku Kabuki Hall - Kabuki Yokocho," so I decided to revisit and enjoy exploring new facilities. On the way back, I passed by the old "Robot Restaurant," which had been replaced by "Giragira Girls." There was a yakitori restaurant ahead, with a special offer of 219 yen for Jim Beam highballs on Mondays to Thursdays. Yakitori was priced starting from 165 yen per skewer, making it very affordable. It was a casual izakaya. I wanted to show foreign visitors that it is more authentic than "Shinjuku Kabuki Hall - Kabuki Yokocho"! Some tourists visited and ordered yakitori, enjoyed a light drink, and happily left. I was amused by their cheerful departure. One tourist who was talking to the staff showed a thumbs up and said "Good" with a smile. The floor staff were foreigners, and although they nodded well, I wonder if they could speak English? Their Japanese was quite good, though. They were very friendly floor staff. We initially ordered a perfect Suntory beer for 605 yen per bottle. The sashimi platter for 2,200 yen was fresh and beautifully presented. We also ordered fried potatoes and potato salad, which came with fried garlic chips as toppings. The texture was interesting, as the potatoes were not soft but rather semi-boiled. The cheese gyoza had melty cheese wrapped in the skin and deep-fried, which we enjoyed with ketchup. The cucumber tataki was well-seasoned, and the salted kelp added to its deliciousness. We ordered two skewers each of thigh meat, tsukune, and quail eggs, with the thigh meat being particularly tender. Despite not having high expectations due to the low prices, we found the yakitori to be "Good!" The beef kalbi sushi (4 pieces) for 990 yen had good meat quality and a beautiful color, with the lightly seared meat being sweet and the sushi rice being delicious. We also ordered the sauce yakisoba for 495 yen, as I hadn't had it in a while. Although it was an international restaurant, the kitchen staff were Japanese, and all the dishes were well-seasoned and beautifully presented. We enjoyed the Jim Beam highballs for 219 yen, which felt like a good deal as they were quite strong. The restaurant allowed smoking. The total bill was 9,326 yen. I found this great information through a search! I've already made a reservation. Shinjuku Kabukicho's "Robot Restaurant" is reopening in the daytime.

The atmosphere inside Yakitori Yarou in Kabukicho, Shinjuku, feels nostalgic! You can easily order by scanning the QR code with your smartphone, and I was surprised by how fast the food was served! I ordered a bottled beer~♪ The appetizer is like a small dish from a set meal restaurant. I'm happy when well-prepared dishes like this are served~ You can order yakitori starting from two skewers, and I chose leek and shishito peppers with salt! Even though it's a yakitori restaurant, they serve beef instead of chicken!! The beef belly and beef skirt were in a sauce! The skirt was so tender♡ The gyoza is juicy with plenty of meat juice and a strong garlic flavor that goes well with beer (lol). The fried chicken is flavored with ginger, and even though I don't usually like the restaurant's fried chicken, this one had a clean taste that I could enjoy♪ I had the cheese sticks fried with ketchup all to myself since there were four of us to avoid fighting (lol). For the finale, we were interested in the seafood bowl and rice dishes, but we ended up with yakisoba by majority vote!!! For dessert, we had fondant chocolate with milky or vanilla ice cream on the side! The lemon sour and Jim Beam highball were popular choices because they were a good deal~ There also seemed to be an option for a 980 yen all-you-can-drink deal!!! It seems like they are open until 5 am, so if you miss the last train, this place might be a good option? Remember that smoking is allowed inside the restaurant♪

On a regular night, I visited the restaurant with a friend without a reservation. Surprisingly, the seats were almost full even without a reservation, showing its popularity. If you have plans, I recommend making a reservation in advance. The place has a fun atmosphere with red lanterns and simple tables and chairs that give off a Showa era vibe. The highlight is the lemon sour and Jim Beam highball for only 99 yen, which is amazing for Kabukicho. We started with a Perfect Suntory beer zero carb jockey and ordered the following dishes: chilled tomato with onion and shiitake mushrooms, Caesar salad with soft-boiled egg, onion salt gyoza, and shishamo potato fries. Orders are placed through a modern QR code. The onion gyoza is crispy and topped with plenty of onions and salt, which goes well with beer. The restaurant mainly serves yakitori, with a variety of options like beef skewers and unique skewers. You can order skewers in pairs, with a choice of salt or sauce. The shishamo was nicely grilled, not overdone. The restaurant allows smoking, so non-smokers may prefer seats near the entrance. Despite the cold in winter, the staff are kind and considerate, making it a comfortable place to hang out. It's a reasonably priced and casual restaurant where you can relax.

A new yakitori izakaya has opened in Shinjuku. It spans from the first floor to the rooftop, all in one building. The atmosphere has a stylish Showa retro feel. The yakitori and drinks are very cheap, and the taste is delicious. Lemon sour and highball are only 99 yen, which is a great deal. The hot pot is also recommended, and it was delicious. It's open every day until morning, so it's very convenient.

The Jim Beam highball and lemon sour are incredibly cheap. That's enough on its own. The yakitori (grilled chicken skewers) didn't have any unusual options and there weren't many types, so we ordered all of them. It was cheap and delicious. It's a shame that the beer selection is limited to just Suntory beer.

The cost performance was so great that I was surprised it was all-you-can-eat. The fried rice served at the beginning was delicious. The fried chicken and yakitori were also delicious. Price: great, Service: good.

The all-you-can-eat and drink course was on a weekend, but the service was fast and there was not much discomfort. The only downside was that the seats were a bit cramped. Overall, it was not bad.

Affordable and easy to use for large groups! The fried rice is delicious!

Visited with a large group. Drinks were served quickly and it was easy to use!

Great cost performance and the food was delicious. It was not crowded because we went early, so we were able to relax and enjoy our meal!

The taste and cost performance were very good. However, even though it was stated that credit cards could be used, I was told that they could not be used for the course or at certain times. That was the only disappointing part.

I tried the all-you-can-eat yakitori but there were too many dishes, so I had to give up. The restaurant was clean and nice.

Drinks are 1200 yen cheaper.
