I went to Ikebukuro to eat horse meat! I made a reservation and it was fully booked. The atmosphere was lively like a bar, which was not bad at all. I ordered a few dishes right away. First, I had a platter of horse sashimi. Horse meat has such a rich red meat flavor without any unpleasant smell, and it's surprisingly healthy... It's a bit sad to imagine the cute horses, but it's so delicious. Especially the tenderloin was amazing! It was soft and packed with flavor! The combination of tender meat and chewy mane was also nice. The pate, fried horse meat, and roast horse were all prepared to bring out the deliciousness of the horse meat. They also had a wide variety of drinks. It's a great place to enjoy horse meat easily.

When I heard of horse meat dishes, I used to think of a Japanese izakaya, but this place serves casual Western cuisine like pasta and ajillo. They also have unique dishes like horse sashimi and horse tongue salami, which are rare in Tokyo. A friend from Kumamoto said that horse sashimi is delicious. The grilled horse shoulder loin was a bit tough in some parts, but the baguettes were all-you-can-eat and the dessert was tasty. The atmosphere of the restaurant was bright and pleasant.

A restaurant in Ikebukuro where you can enjoy horse meat dishes at a reasonable price. They offer a variety of options such as horse sashimi, tongue, pate, and pizza, all of which are delicious. There are also menu items for those who are not fond of horse meat. The atmosphere is casual and popular among groups of women and couples. They have a good selection of wine and desserts. Located near Ikebukuro East Exit, across from the old Toshima Ward Office, next to the diving shop mic21.

Date and time: Weekday around 7:30 PM Reservation: Made through the official website Purpose: Drinking Number of people: 4 Atmosphere: Lively Attire: Casual Order: Haneuma Party Plan B Course - 9 dishes with all-you-can-drink for 5,000 yen

I visited the restaurant in the evening on a public holiday. It was a gathering with old friends who wanted to eat horse meat. We were looking for a place with all-you-can-drink option since we planned to drink a lot. It was a bit difficult to find a restaurant that offered all-you-can-drink with horse meat. We ended up ordering a 4000 yen course which included: - Salad - Horse tongue and horse meat salami - Two types of horse meat - Shrimp and mushroom ajillo - Horse meat sirloin grill - Tomato pasta The salami had less fat and tasted healthy. It was disappointing that one of the horse meat types was only fatty. The ajillo had a decent portion since there were multiple people. The horse meat grill was slightly overcooked, but still good. The portion size was generous. If you just want to eat a little horse meat with all-you-can-drink, this course is fine. But if you plan to eat a lot of horse meat, it might be better to choose a different course or order a la carte. The quality of the horse meat was average. Thank you for the meal.

I think this restaurant is great for women because it mainly focuses on healthy horse meat dishes. The assorted horse meat platter was incredibly delicious. The wine and horse sashimi were also delicious! I'm glad I came here! It was truly the best horse meat I've ever had in my life!

The luxurious assortment of 7 types of horse sashimi was incredibly delicious, it melted in my mouth! It paired perfectly with alcohol, making it even more delicious. Among all the horse meat I've ever eaten in my life, this was by far the best, so I definitely want to visit again!

Arrived for a reservation around 6pm on a Friday evening with a party of 2. When we entered, there was only one other customer besides us, but each table had a reservation sign, so I recommend making a reservation. In the past, we were turned away when we arrived around 8pm without a reservation... First, we ordered a platter of horse sashimi, grilled horse meat, salad, and red sangria. We thought we could order more if we were still hungry, but as two women, this amount filled us up quite a bit. The salad was generous with dressing and quite voluminous. The crispy horse ham was like beef jerky. The horse sashimi platter had 3 pieces each of various cuts, allowing us to try different parts. You could start with this and add more of the cuts you liked. The grilled meat came in about 5 pieces each, with separate sauces and salt provided, a nice touch. The daikon radish cut into a horse shape for garnish was cute. The sangria had a slightly unique taste, maybe not something you'd drink at other places... Besides sangria, we also ordered sparkling wine and dessert wine. The sparkling wine was delicious as expected. The dessert wine didn't seem much different from regular white wine to me... slightly sweet maybe? For dessert, we had the crème brûlée, which had a unique taste and texture, different from soufflé or cheesecake. At around 8pm, we were told it was time to vacate the table, perhaps they have a 2-hour seating limit. By the time we left, the place was full and quite lively. The final bill came to just over 10,000 yen for the two of us. I felt like it might have been a bit more expensive, so the cost performance is good. We thoroughly enjoyed indulging in horse meat, so we left very satisfied.

The horse sashimi was incredibly delicious! I tried horse meat roast and carpaccio for the first time and they were both very tasty without any strong flavors. The cranberry juice was also delicious, and the staff at the restaurant were kind. I would love to visit this restaurant again! ♡

I don't eat horse meat in Ikebukuro, so I went to eat in another area, but this time it was too hot and I didn't have the energy to move, so I tried this place for the first time. (The Tamachi store is closed on Sundays and holidays.) I made a reservation over the phone and confirmed that I got a reservation. It wasn't a definite answer, so I hope there are other reservations as well. When you enter the side of Fukushin, which has closed down from Meiji Street, there is a store. There are no other stores on this street, so I don't usually pass by. The entrance is open, maybe for COVID-19 measures, but they guided me to the back where it's cool. I ordered the all-you-can-drink single item for 1500 yen (using a coupon). First, Sapporo draft beer. Yeah, it's good. If ordered individually, it's 590 yen, which is expensive. The appetizer is a 5-item assortment for 1790 yen including sirloin (sweet and delicious), lean meat and tategami sandwich (the fat of tategami and lean meat is amazing), fillet (diced and tender, delicious), premium loin (has an aged taste, delicious), and tomahawk (futae-go, delicious and refillable). Each is 3 pieces, so it's quite a deal for two people. Horse meat pate for 690 yen, which I enjoyed with mustard. It's voluminous and delicious. Horse meat hamburger for 1290 yen, also very filling. Not much of a horse meat taste, but there's plenty of sauce, cheese, and hash browns. I also ordered additional bread (290 yen). Overall, the food is excellent, but the problem lies in the drinks. The highball (Dewar's) is almost like water with weak carbonation. I ordered other drinks as well, and overall they were all weak. Looking at the menu, each drink costs close to 600 yen, so the total bill can add up quickly if you eat and drink. It seems like I won't be able to visit often without opting for the course plus all-you-can-drink or all-you-can-drink single items. The food is delicious though.

【Trigger】I often stop by this restaurant nearby, so I was curious and decided to visit! 【Exterior/Interior】The exterior has a nice feel to it, and since the restaurant is relatively new, the interior is also clean and beautiful! 【Food/Value】The meat dishes, especially the horse meat, are delicious here! The cost performance is also good, so I visit frequently! 【Staff】The female staff members are incredibly friendly! 【Order】 - Horse meat platter (5 kinds) → The mane in particular is excellent! - 1/4 pound steak → Just the right amount for about 2 people! The meat is tender too! 【Summary】Enjoying horse meat while drinking wine creates a very elegant atmosphere, making it a great restaurant! It's always busy, so I recommend making a reservation before going!

After work in Ikebukuro, I decided to have a light drink at this place. I didn't specifically choose this place, but I remembered there used to be a Spanish bar here. It had been replaced by a horse meat bar, which seemed interesting (and delicious) so I entered without hesitation. For starters, I ordered the recommended horse sashimi platter with three different cuts: loin, fillet, and thigh. It was a rare treat to be able to enjoy various parts of fresh horse meat as sashimi, especially since beef sashimi is hard to find nowadays. Although it wasn't a Spanish bar, they had a few types of garlic shrimp dishes, so I chose the "Camembert Cheese Garlic Shrimp." The melted Camembert on top of bread was delicious, with a perfect balance of flavors. Since it tends to be salty when heated, eating it with bread was just right. As it was a horse meat specialty restaurant, I felt I should try their grilled dish, so I ordered the "Grilled Horse Meat Loin." The meat, cooked extremely rare, was fresh with no gamey taste. It had a good chewiness and a nice smoky flavor from being grilled over charcoal. I found the taste to be on par with high-quality beef red meat. Being able to enjoy such fresh horse meat at this price in Tokyo is quite rare, and I would definitely come back when I crave horse meat again.

After a long time, I went out for drinks in Ikebukuro with a friend. I found a cozy restaurant that seemed enjoyable even for two men. The restaurant was small, with tables on both sides and a counter with about four seats in front of the kitchen. I had originally reserved a counter seat, but upon arrival, I found it to be too cramped and there was no space to hang coats or leave them at the restaurant. I asked if we could switch to a table, and luckily, they were able to accommodate us next to a group of diners. The space was still tight, but it didn't bother us much. We started with a horse meat sashimi platter, which included various cuts like sirloin, top loin, rib, fillet, shoulder, and rump. The sirloin was not to my liking in terms of texture, but the rest were delicious. We also tried horse tripe ajillo, which paired well with drinks. The horse meat and avocado tartare was a refreshing dish with the avocado adding a nice touch. We then had a grilled horse meat platter with cuts like loin, skirt, and sirloin. The sirloin was particularly tasty once grilled. We skipped on adding lamb chops and Ezo deer to avoid overordering. We ended our meal with pickles and a final beer order. The staff, especially the cute female manager, provided excellent service, making our dining experience enjoyable despite the small and crowded space. I even received a 20% discount coupon through a lucky draw, making me consider revisiting the restaurant for my next Ikebukuro outing.

I haven't had horse meat recently, but I was surprised by the deliciousness of the horse sashimi platter at a gathering. The tataki, steak, and cutlet were all delicious. Not only that, but I also had a refreshing feeling and slept deeply at night, which I think is because horse meat is easy to digest and rich in iron and taurine, making it good for the body. The staff's cheerful and pleasant service was also a plus. It's a shame that there is only a store in Ikebukuro. Why? Because Ikebukuro Station is like a human maze.

In November 2019, I wanted to eat meat but also watch my calorie intake, so horse meat was a great option. Horse sashimi, pate, and seared carpaccio were delicious, but what I really enjoyed was the crispy fried horse meat. The crunchy texture was so tasty.

Ikebukuro Higashi-guchi Horse Meat Bar "Hanema Horse Meat" is a restaurant that specializes in horse meat located in the east exit of Ikebukuro. There is also a branch in Minami Ikebukuro, but this time we visited this one in November 2019. Two people visited for dinner and enjoyed the horse sashimi, which was delicious. The horse meat pate was also tasty. The horse meat tataki had a bit of a chewy texture. Our order for the day included horse sashimi (thigh meat), horse meat pate, crispy fried horse intestines, horse meat seared carpaccio, horse harami tataki, beer, and other drinks. As a fan of horse meat, I appreciate having a restaurant that specializes in it. Enjoying beer and horse meat made me happy.

I went to eat meat with a casual attitude, but chain restaurants like this just don't suit me. I was surprised at how bad the salad I ordered for the appetizer was. The meat was okay, but the seasoning was too strong and not to my liking. Well, you never know until you try. Horse meat is said to be healthy, so there were many female customers, and the atmosphere was casual yet stylish. It might be okay if the purpose is to chat with friends.

There are plenty of horse meat dishes on the menu! The atmosphere is lovely and seems perfect for a girls' night out or a date. I'm not a big fan of horse meat, but they also have non-horse meat options which is great. The cheesecake for dessert was delicious. ♡

I walked from Ikebukuro East Exit towards Yodobashi Camera. It was quite a walk. I love horse meat but had never visited a horse meat specialty store before, so I had high expectations for my first visit. I ordered a sashimi platter at the counter right away. All five types were exquisite. There was no unpleasant smell at all, and there were many cuts I had never tried before. It tastes even better with added garlic and ginger! Other dishes like Caesar salad, horse meat steak, and bolognese all used horse meat, but they were all delicious! I am curious about the garlic shrimp, but I was too full to try it, so I will come back again~

The food was delicious, reasonably priced, and visually appealing. They had a wide variety of drinks, including a selection of shochu with a horse theme, which showed attention to detail. The original sour cocktail called "Hanema Lemon Sour" made at the Jumping Horse Lemon Sour was also very delicious.

I attended a high school reunion party held every 2 to 3 months. This time, it was in Ikebukuro. It was exciting to visit Seibu Department Store in Ikebukuro, which I haven't been to since it closed in Funabashi. I also visited PARCO and arrived too early, so I had to wait outside. We had a course meal with all-you-can-drink for 6000 yen, with plenty of horse meat dishes. I ate a lot, and by the time pizza and pasta came in the second half, I was already too full. My friends said the dessert was delicious, but I couldn't eat it because I was too full. I really enjoyed the horse meat dishes. The sashimi was especially delicious. The horse mane was the best! It was delicious. Thank you for the meal. (＾ω＾)
