[Access] About a 3-minute walk from Ginza subway station, there is a yakiniku restaurant on the 6th floor of a building along Namiki Street. [Operating hours and store] This time, I made a reservation for dining on a weekday from 11:50 am. The restaurant is located on the 6th floor of the building. Upon entering the restaurant, we were guided to a private room. The interior of the restaurant is elegant with a touch of Japanese modern style, giving off a sense of luxury. This yakiniku restaurant only offers private rooms. [Lunch] The lunch course includes a welcome drink (beer, wine, etc.) and dessert, starting from kimchi. The welcome drink is a glass of draft beer, and there are five grilled items. This time, I ordered the mixed lunch set. - The draft beer is served in a glass. - There are 4 types of kimchi, each with a moderate level of spiciness and pickling. They are all excellently made. - The appetizer with scallops in spicy sauce pairs well with beer. - The chapchae is seasoned with sweet soy sauce. - There are 5 types of namul, with bean sprouts being my favorite. - The salad with lettuce and cucumber dressed in salt and pepper dressing has a flavor I enjoy. - The grilled items include lean beef, premium kalbi, and black tiger shrimp. There are three sauces: the special sauce from Jojoen, gochujang, and a refreshing scallion sauce. - The lean beef is flavorful and delicious. - The premium kalbi has a beautiful marbling, sweet fat, and a melt-in-your-mouth texture. - The black tiger shrimp has a firm texture. - The rice is flavorful with a slight sweetness. - The soup is made from beef bones and has a rich and delicious flavor. - The dessert, green tea ice cream, allows you to enjoy the taste and sweetness of matcha. - After ordering coffee, they grind the beans and drip the coffee, resulting in a deep and flavorful cup of coffee that is unexpectedly good for a yakiniku restaurant. - I ordered a bottle of Sapporo Black Label beer for 1100 yen including tax, and it was served chilled and delicious. [Staff] The female floor staff in kimono provides impeccable service reminiscent of a traditional Japanese inn or a luxury hotel. They are polite and attentive, making the dining experience exceptional. [Final thoughts] This restaurant is part of the top 100 yakiniku restaurants in Tokyo. It is the highest rank of Jojoen, a well-known yakiniku chain with locations in major cities. The quality of the meat is outstanding, and the service is beyond comparison, surpassing that of a traditional inn or a luxury hotel. This time, I had a luxurious and blissful dining experience in a private room for lunch. It was truly a time of happiness and indulgence. Thank you for the wonderful meal. - Station: Nearby - Queue: Reservation required - Ambiance: Japanese modern - Price: Expensive, but lunch offers a sense of value - Specialties: Meat and service - Infection prevention measures: Hand sanitizers available, private rooms.
