I visited this restaurant because the meat dishes looked delicious. The interior is clean and simple. I was surprised when the appetizer arrived - roast beef on a skillet. Is this really an appetizer? It was delicious with a tasty sauce and Western-style wasabi. The chicken salad was also delicious, with fresh lettuce and tomatoes with a tasty dressing. I was happy that you can order spare ribs by the piece. The ribs come in sweet and spicy flavors, but even the spicy one wasn't too hot. The meat was tender and easy to eat. I felt like having a highball. The most popular dish, the secret marinated grilled beef harami, was tender and flavorful. I couldn't have alcohol this time because I was driving, but the food was still great. The side of fried potatoes was tasty. The minced meat and mashed potato gratin with smoked cheese topping was also delicious. Maybe it's just my preference, but the food was really tasty. The staff was also very friendly, which is important. I'll come back next time by train to enjoy the delicious food with alcohol.

I used the restaurant alone for lunch. There were only two options for lunch, roast beef set meal and roast beef bowl, and I ordered the roast beef set meal with 100g of roast beef for ¥800. I wasn't sure if 100g was too much or too little, but when it arrived, it was just the right amount to make me feel full. I thought I should have ordered extra rice. The taste was just delicious. The roast beef was tender and flavorful. Even with condiments like egg, the taste remained delicious until the end. This restaurant is definitely one of the top choices in Nakano for lunch. As I was leaving, I was impressed by how all the customers were saying "thank you for the meal!" with smiles on their faces.

I ordered a 200g roast beef set meal with free extra rice, and chose garlic soy sauce as the sauce! The thinly sliced roast beef was moist and delicious, with a rich flavor. It's also tasty when dipped in egg yolk or horseradish mayo for an extra punch. The set meal comes with salad, miso soup, and cold tofu, so I left feeling full. The flavorful seasoning makes it necessary to have extra rice with the 200g roast beef. Although 150g would be ideal, I'm debating whether to go with 100g next time...

Roast beef 200g for 1300 yen was a great deal and delicious! Most customers around me also ordered 200g. It came out in less than 5 minutes after ordering. For 1300 yen, the portion size was impressive! Definitely go for 200g instead of 100g.

I visited for lunch. I ordered the 200g roast beef set meal which was reasonably priced at 1300 yen, and I didn't have high expectations due to the unfriendly attitude of the female waitress. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The roast beef was tender and had no unpleasant smell, and the onion soy sauce was excellent. I promise to come back for dinner. Thank you for the delicious meal.

The 200g roast beef set was delicious with thinly sliced, moist roast beef. I ordered it with garlic soy sauce, which was quite strong in flavor, so the regular portion of rice wasn't enough. It was tasty when dipped in egg yolk or mayonnaise. I should have ordered the rice in a larger portion.

I visited for lunch after a long time due to the pandemic. They had two options: roast beef bowl and set meal (choose between 100g or 200g of meat, extra rice available). The menu seemed to be more varied before, but now it's more standardized. I arrived around 12:10 and it was almost full. Since I had to work in the afternoon, I chose the onion sauce, but I would like to try the garlic sauce someday. The set meal costs 800 yen for 100g and 1300 yen for 200g. For lunch, only cash or PayPay is accepted.

Bistro located on the Fureai Road on the north side of JR Nakano Station. It is on the 2nd floor of a building near the intersection with Sanbangai. If you mention Aoba, it's the building across the street. I arrived around 13:40 for lunch on a weekday, and there were no customers before or after me (lol). This restaurant only offers roast beef for lunch, with a choice between a set meal or a bowl. I ordered the "Roast Beef Set Meal 100g (extra rice)" for 800 yen including tax. The food was served in about 3 minutes, surprisingly fast (lol). The roast beef was neatly arranged on a flat plate, with sauce, green onions, and sesame sprinkled on top. The rice was served generously in a bowl because I asked for extra. It also came with a small salad, cold tofu, miso soup, and mustard mayonnaise with egg yolk for seasoning. It's quite luxurious for 800 yen! I tried the roast beef as it is, and it was already seasoned, but I also tried dipping it in the mustard mayonnaise and egg yolk. The homemade mustard mayonnaise had a nice kick from the mustard, and the egg yolk made it milder and delicious. The default seasoning had a hint of pepper, so using the egg yolk as a seasoning was a good change. The salad was basic, with sesame dressing on romaine lettuce. It was a small portion but a nice addition. The miso soup was lukewarm, and the cold tofu was topped with soy sauce broth, which was also tasty. The extra rice I ordered was a good amount, and I felt full after finishing it. For 800 yen, this was really good value. I tried the roast beef that I had heard about, and as expected, it was a cost-effective restaurant. I would like to visit again if I have the chance. Thank you for the meal.

Visited with children. It was mentioned that children are welcome, but the high chairs were a bit of an issue. Other than that, everything was good. The drinks were reasonably priced. The only thing I thought was that the appetizers should be counted for children too. It would be nice if they asked if we needed them or not. The appetizer was roast beef, which the kids enjoyed, so that was good. In the end, they seemed to like it and even ordered more. The other dishes were decent in taste. Thank you for the meal ☺️

Bistro Charcoal Grilled Meat Bar Chicken Leg Nakano Branch Having a meat lunch in Nakano! Walk about 180m from the north exit of Sun Mall arcade towards Nakano Broadway, turn right down the alley, and after about 100m, you will find Wine Bar Chicken Leg on the 2nd floor of a building across from the line for "Chuka Soba Aoba". This was my first visit to Chicken Leg. I was aiming for their famous roast beef bowl, but after some consideration, I decided on the Roast Beef Set (200g) for 1,300 yen with extra rice (complimentary). My colleague ordered the 100g option for 800 yen. I chose the "Onion Soy Sauce" for my sauce, while my colleague went with the "Garlic Soy Sauce". We eagerly awaited the difference between the two. First, we tried my colleague's 100g portion. And then, where was my 200g portion? It arrived on a stainless steel plate (tray) without being piled up like fugu sashimi. The table was full. The lean, red roast beef was full of meaty flavor. We enjoyed changing things up with the set of "egg yolk" and "wasabi mayonnaise" without getting tired of it, and finished our meal completely satisfied. The soup was miso soup with wakame. It was very delicious.

Roast beef bowl for 800 yen at Bistro Charcoal Grilled Meat and Sake Bar Chicken Leg Nakano Store, a 4-minute walk from Nakano Station North Exit in Tokyo. I was hesitant to visit as it is located on the second floor of a building across from Chuka Soba Aoba, but I decided to go back after enjoying the beef cutlet the other day. I arrived at 2 pm with only one other customer present. The dish arrived on a tray in less than 10 minutes after ordering, with miso soup included, although it was lukewarm. The roast beef bowl came with a raw egg yolk on top, and I chose onion soy sauce for the sauce. The roast beef was tender and delicious. It was a decent portion for 100g of roast beef, and I was very satisfied with the meal at this price. Thank you for the meal!

Bistro Charcoal Grilled Meat and Sake Bar Chicken Leg Nakano branch, located a 4-minute walk from Nakano Station North Exit, offers a Demi-Glace Beef Cutlet Cheese Set Meal for 900 yen. I had passed by this restaurant countless times before, as it is located across from Chuka Soba Aoba, but the atmosphere on the second floor of the building made me hesitant to enter, so I had never visited before. However, after watching a food YouTuber's video about this restaurant, I decided to give it a try. I arrived just before 1:30 PM and found only one customer already inside. Although I had planned to try their roast beef dishes, I ended up ordering the beef cutlet after seeing it on the table menu. The dish arrived in about 5 minutes, accompanied by a salad and a side of cold tofu. The beef cutlet was sandwiched with cheese and topped with Demi-Glace sauce. The rich flavor of the Demi-Glace was impressive, although the meat was not as tender as I had hoped. Overall, it was still a satisfying meal. I look forward to trying the roast beef bowl on my next visit. Thank you for the meal!

Around 2:00 p.m. on Monday, I wanted to explore a new restaurant in Nakano, where many places are closed on Mondays. I remembered seeing a photo of roast beef in an area filled with ramen shops, so I decided to visit. When I arrived, I was the only customer there for lunch. The menu offered a choice between roast beef set meal or roast beef bowl, with options for onion soy sauce or garlic soy sauce. I ordered the Roast Beef Bowl with onion soy sauce for 800 yen. The dish arrived in less than 5 minutes, presenting a beautiful mountain of roast beef. The meat was very tender and there was a surprising amount of it. The sauce had a hint of wasabi, which I usually don't like, but it was subtle and added to the overall flavor. The sweetness of the onion was more prominent. The taste was slightly strong, but it paired perfectly with the rice. Despite the generous amount of meat, I enjoyed every bite without getting tired of it. It was very filling and satisfying for the price of 800 yen. Each table had a water pitcher and small paper cups, which I found a bit small. Overall, it was a great experience with excellent value for money.

The taste and cost performance are great, but it's a shame that this restaurant is always empty whenever you go. The seats are uncomfortable and not conducive for lingering, and the presentation is not Instagram-worthy, making it difficult to recommend for dates, drinking parties, or girls' nights out. However, most of the dishes are delicious and reasonably priced! The staff is also kind and friendly! It would be better if they served dishes on separate plates instead of all on one hot plate. The roast beef appetizer is delicious! The Western-style wasabi is also tasty! The presentation could be improved by arranging mashed potatoes in a mountain shape with a long red piece in the middle and a dab of wasabi. The wasabi on the side seems unnecessary. The chicken sashimi would look better on a plate rather than on a hot plate. The taste is undeniably delicious! The pasta, gratin, and harami steak are all delicious! However, the portions seem small. Serving them on smaller plates with some garnish would make them look more appealing. The rare cheesecake was not actually rare, it was frozen. It wasn't tasty. The fluffy cotton candy looked nice, but why put the cheesecake underneath it? With a few changes, this place could become a trendy spot. The old wooden plates or perfectly sized plates from the past made the presentation more appealing and lifted the mood.

During lunchtime, I went to a restaurant that only serves roast beef bowl or roast beef set. Even though they focus on roast beef, I thought there would be other menu items (especially chicken dishes), but when I went upstairs, they were not available. Looking at the posted images, it seems like they used to have other items. I visited twice and had the roast beef set 200g for 1300 yen (tax included) and 100g for 800 yen. You can get extra rice, and it comes with miso soup, raw egg yolk, cold tofu, salad (just leaves), and wasabi mayo. There are two types of sauces, onion soy sauce and garlic soy sauce, which you choose when ordering. The 200g roast beef is served on a huge plate, but it's thinly sliced so it's easy to eat. However, the taste gets a bit monotonous, so I wish they could serve both sauces half and half (if possible). The seating is mostly tables with only 2 counter seats. I've never seen anyone sitting at the counter seats, so maybe they only use them when the tables are full. The atmosphere is like a casual bar, but it's not the type of place where you chat with the staff while drinking. It's more like enjoying a drink alone or with a friend. The square layout of the restaurant seems suitable for private parties. I noticed there is a water pitcher on the table, which is nice for unlimited refills, although they provide small paper cups. The tables are a bit small, which is a bit disappointing. Overall, it doesn't seem like a place for hearty meals. When I saw two people ordering the 200g roast beef set at a two-person table, it looked quite cramped.

It was a nice atmosphere in the restaurant. I was craving roast beef and found this place through a search. I walked in alone and was greeted by friendly staff in the dimly lit restaurant. I ordered the roast beef set meal (200g) right away, with onion soy sauce as my choice of sauce. It was delicious. I enjoyed it as it was, but also tried it with egg and cream sauce. The miso soup and tofu were also tasty. All this for only 1300 yen! I left thinking I would definitely come back when I crave roast beef again. I'm curious about the other menu items and drinks, so I'll definitely be back at some point.

There may not be any delicious food here, but there are many fans. The place seems to be popular with reservations and all, but the food is not tasty. The photos on the signboard and on food review websites make the food look delicious, but the actual dishes are disappointing. The appetizer costs 400 yen and the roast beef, which is served on a hot plate, is not as good as expected. The roast beef is salty and thin, with too much sauce. The liver pate costs 580 yen and tastes like watery crackers. The pickles assortment costs 480 yen and is more salty than vinegary. The secret marinated beef harami costs 980 yen and lacks the aroma of charcoal grilling. It tastes like sweetened pot-marinated meat you find at a yakiniku restaurant. The chicken tataki seared with a yellow chicken skin costs 680 yen and has an unappealing color. It is warm and seared, with a smell of burnt meat. Overall, the dishes were not to my liking.

This is amazing... The other day, someone recommended me a divine neighboring restaurant called "Jin" for their mapo tofu, and when I jokingly called them saying "I'm in Shibuya now...", they responded with "Shall we have roast beef then!?" in an unexpected and fun way, guiding me to their restaurant... Honestly, when I saw the photos of the restaurant from outside, I thought "It's probably just about the quantity", but I was very wrong... It's incredibly delicious! And the amount of roast beef you get for 1,300 yen is unbelievable! Actually, at this time, instead of miso soup (which I can't drink...), defaulting to wine sounds good! The onion sauce is delicious, dipping it in the yolk is delicious, mixing it with wasabi mayo is delicious, you can enjoy the roast beef in various ways! Hmm, I'm already thinking about when to come next, adjusting my schedule... lol.

I visited before 12 PM on a weekday. The menu offers only roast beef donburi or set meals. I ordered the 100g set meal for 800 yen. I chose the onion soy sauce as the sauce. It came with egg yolk and mayonnaise, which I added. The price is reasonable and the meal was delicious. Thank you.

Mauna Loa volcano erupts?! Be careful of the large lava flow! With that in mind, on Saturday afternoon, I visited Chicken Leg Nakano store to have lunch! Although the name of the restaurant is Chicken Leg, it doesn't specialize in chicken dishes, but rather their lunch menu seems to focus on roast beef bowls. I was drawn in by the menu board on the first floor and ended up on the second floor of the restaurant. It's a meat bar with a stylish interior, tall tables, and chairs - not the most comfortable for someone like me with short legs (laughs). There were two women as the previous customers, it seems that stylish restaurants are welcoming to women. I ordered the roast beef bowl with garlic sauce and extra rice (free), and it was served in about 5 minutes. It came in a pot instead of a plate, with salad and roast beef bowl, and a separate miso soup with seaweed. Now, let's dig into the lava dome at the summit. By slowly excavating the mountain near the vent, the lava will flow down as a lava flow. Hmm, visually stunning! It's the eruption of the world's largest Mauna Loa volcano! Mixing the melted egg yolk with the roast beef, dipping it in mayonnaise, and wrapping it in rice, it was so delicious! And the fact that such a voluminous roast beef bowl was only 800 yen was also surprising. I was completely satisfied with the taste and cost performance of this lunch menu! Thank you for the meal! It was delicious!

Lunch menu roast beef bowl. Comes with miso soup and salad. The dish was brought out on a mountain-shaped plate, which was surprising. You can choose between onion sauce or garlic sauce. The meat was tender and filling. I would definitely want to come back again when I'm in the area. ☺
