The best shabu-shabu in Ginza, which used to be Shabusen or Zakuro in my opinion, may have been surpassed now. ① Date: 2021/01/08 ② Time: 12:40 ③ Crowd: Full ④ Menu: Pork and Beef Set Meal for 1500 yen ⑤ Taste Impressions: - Broth: The broth was delicious, with a hint of bonito flakes. The broth made the vegetables taste sweeter. - Vegetables: I was surprised by the generous amount of vegetables. Boiling the fresh vegetables in the tasty broth was delightful. - Pork: The sweetness of the pork was remarkable. The thick slices of meat, combined with the broth, provided a satisfying and delicious taste. - Beef: The beef was sliced large and was very tasty. Lightly dipping it in the broth made it even more delicious. ⑥ Other Impressions: I would definitely want to come back here! This elegant restaurant is recommended for business entertainment, like Zakuro's shabu-shabu. For a casual and delicious taste, I think Yama Warau is the place to go. Thank you for the meal!

Visited on Sunday at 12:00. It was full and had to wait for 30 minutes...! By 13:00, there were empty seats, but making a reservation is better. The "Yonezawa Buta Ichiban Sodachi" (100g for 1,540 yen) comes with pickles, cold water, and self-service coffee. While you go to get these, vegetables and meat are served. The vegetables include rare items like okra and hijiki, which was a pleasant surprise. The meat was delicious and satisfying in both quality and quantity. It comes with sesame sauce and ponzu, and garnished with green onions and grated red turnip. White rice, mixed grain rice, and ramen are all-you-can-eat. The pickles are tasty and go well with rice. For the ramen, it is best to dilute the soup as it can be too salty if made as instructed. Keeping the green onions for the ramen was a good choice. The strawberry sherbet dessert was a bit too sweet, but overall it was sufficient as part of the set. The interior of the restaurant is bright, clean, and the counter seats are separated from the neighboring seats. The service was also polite. Having a hotpot for one person is also very nice.

Visited a shabu-shabu restaurant for the first time! Located in Ginza 3-chome, on the ground floor. The restaurant mainly has counter seats, with a few table seats as well, and it was very spacious. Arrived at 1:00 pm on a weekday and although it was full, we were seated promptly. The menu is extensive, with a variety of options for beef types and gram sizes to choose from. This time, I selected a set with 80g of domestic beef and 80g of Yonezawa beef for 2200 yen. There is also a vegetable set, all-you-can-eat pickles, coffee, and dessert. You can choose between white rice and multigrain rice. The dipping sauces offered are sesame sauce and ponzu. The vegetable salad included Chinese cabbage, okra, seaweed, bean sprouts, glass noodles, tofu, and okamoku(?), providing a rich variety. The vegetables tasted great with ponzu. The selected beef, although not a branded beef, was plentiful with a good amount of marbling, giving it a high-quality taste. And the sesame sauce here is amazing!! It is rich, fragrant, and flavorful. Both beef and pork go well with it, making the meal very enjoyable. You can also add chili peppers for a change in flavor. The self-service pickles included cucumbers, radishes, and nozawana, all of which paired well with rice. The dessert was orange sherbet for a refreshing finish. Coffee is also self-service. Overall, the quality of the ingredients was good, and the service was consistent. With plenty of vegetables, it doesn't feel guilty to enjoy the meat, rather it feels like you are incorporating something healthy into your diet. Regret not going there sooner. The menu prices are also varied, making it convenient for different budgets.

It was already crowded outside when I went on the weekend. It's quite popular. It's a bit far from Yurakucho, but very close from Ginza-itchome station, so the access is good. There are many counter seats, and there are also tables in the back, so it's a restaurant where large groups can go.

I often visit a shabu-shabu specialty restaurant called "Yama Warau" in Ginza. It's my favorite place where I can enjoy a hearty shabu-shabu set in a single-person pot at a low price. When I visited after a long time (over half a year), I found out that they had raised their prices. The cheapest course with 150g of Yonezawa pork now costs 3,300 yen, finally reaching the 3,000 yen range. I understand that prices are going up everywhere, but it was a bit of a shock. However, the taste and customer service remain wonderful, making me want to continue visiting this lovely restaurant. The staff here are truly full of hospitality, which I love. The friendly older brother who transferred from the Ginza store to the Omotesando store was really amazing, and the new staff member who served me in Ginza this time was also kind and polite. It's probably because of this kind of service that the restaurant is loved by so many people, even with the price increase. I will continue to visit! Thank you for the meal!

I ordered the shabu-shabu course meal which included Yamagata black beef and Yonezawa pork. I ordered 120g of black beef and 80g of Yonezawa pork. I sat at the counter and could see the meat being sliced right in front of me. For the appetizer, I could choose from 4 options and I chose the tomato salad which was delicious with a nice salty taste. The vegetables were all-you-can-eat, and I particularly liked the okra and seaweed. I usually eat my meat with sesame sauce, but the sesame sauce here had a strong flavor. The pork was surprisingly tender, and the beef was even more tender than that. 120g was not enough for me. The matcha ice cream dessert was a nice way to end the meal.

I chose the lunch menu with domestic beef and pork shabu-shabu. Each person has their own pot, so you can eat at your own pace, which is nice. The beef was very tender and the dipping sauces, ponzu and sesame, were rich and delicious. It was also nice that coffee and pickles were free.

It was delicious! I had some tender marbled Yamagata beef and pork shabu-shabu after a long time. I wanted the sesame sauce to be spicy, so I asked for chili oil. Unlimited refills for ramen, white rice, multigrain rice, tofu noodles! We ordered a course, and the shikuwasa sherbet at the end was excellent! I will definitely go again.

I made a reservation for the first time and was looking forward to visiting. I was seated at the counter, but the chairs were high and uncomfortable for women. There was no footrest under the counter, and the space was cramped, so it was hard to relax. The seating was close to the next person, and I kept bumping into them when sitting down. The water and pickles were self-service, so I had to go to a different place to get them. It felt like a cafeteria with an oval counter in the middle with a kitchen, but why was it self-service when there were staff? There was no explanation or "please enjoy" when the food was ready, so I didn't know when to start eating. Foreign customers seemed even more confused. The staff didn't pay attention or give any guidance, and they would suddenly take away plates without saying anything, which was surprising. It felt like they wanted us to eat quickly and leave. The fixed pot on the table made it difficult for petite women to eat comfortably. The meat was delicious, but the rice was disappointing as it had both watery and hard parts.

I visited for lunch on Saturday and I was very satisfied! I chose the set with pork and beef. There were two types of sauce, sesame and ponzu, and pickles were self-service. You could choose between white rice and mixed grain rice, and you could also get seconds. I want to go again!

It seems to be a very popular restaurant, as last time when I tried to have lunch there, it was already full and I couldn't get in. This time, I went early around 11 o'clock. There were many foreign tourists, and the staff seemed quite busy. The photo shows the black wagyu beef udon shabu that was also on the front sign. Before adding the broth → After adding the broth, it turns a nice color. It was very delicious.

■April 2023 Visit It's been 4 years since my last visit, and it's scary how time flies! This time, I came to try the limited 20 servings of Wagyu beef Hitsumabushi, not for shabu-shabu. Despite the place being crowded with foreign tourists, I was relieved to find Hitsumabushi still available. The beautifully arranged Wagyu beef in the steamer was a sight to behold! The instructions on how to eat it were written out - you could enjoy it as it is, with grated yam on top, or pour broth over it for a delicious ochazuke finish. Being able to enjoy different flavors throughout the meal was great, and the meat was so tender and tasty. My favorite was dipping it in wasabi and adding grated yam, but the ochazuke was also exquisite. I want to eat it again - thank you for the feast!

I had Hitsumabushi and Shabu Shabu at a restaurant with an oval-shaped counter. There were also table seats, and the place was bustling with solo female diners and foreign tourists, making it easy to enter with a sense of cleanliness. Both the beef loin Shabu Shabu and the limited edition Wagyu Hitsumabushi had a strong flavor and were satisfying to eat.

I went to lunch with a friend. I had visited this place before in Omotesando and the cost performance was great, so I decided to visit again. This time, I ordered the standard domestic beef (lower rank) instead of the marbled one. I was a bit worried because last time I had the marbled beef, but the domestic beef was also delicious! The meat was tender, and I was happy to have a variety of vegetables. I was satisfied from lunchtime! I will definitely go back again!

We made a reservation for six people for lunch. Since we only have a one-hour lunch break, they prepared the food quickly for us. We chose the most popular set which includes black wagyu beef and pork shabu-shabu. It comes with pickles and coffee as all-you-can-eat options. The meal was satisfying and we were very pleased. The sherbet dessert was also refreshing. Thank you very much.

I always think that 120g of Yamagata black wagyu rib roast shabu-shabu meat is too much, so I wish they would also make an 80g option. The meat is sliced by a machine after ordering at the counter, and I appreciate being able to add vegetables or pickles. Each hot pot is separated for each person, which is enjoyable.

I made a reservation for the course meal with Yamagata black beef (120g) and Yonezawa pork (80g) in advance. The interior of the restaurant was very clean and we were guided to a semi-private room, so my friend and I were able to enjoy our meal without worrying about our surroundings. It was rare to see a shabu-shabu counter seat, which might be enjoyable for foreigners. We were able to have unlimited servings of vegetables and rice, and we each had two helpings of both. The beef and pork were both delicious, but personally, I prefer the pork for shabu-shabu.

I used this restaurant for a small farewell party for a senior colleague at work. The interior was beautiful, with each table having a hot pot for shabu-shabu. It was a great choice for those who are not comfortable sharing food with others. We chose appetizers and ordered a course with a mix of beef and pork. The vegetables were all-you-can-eat and very delicious. The meat was also tasty, and we had a great time.

Shabu-shabu is a popular dish at Kisoji or Onyasai, but this place seems like it will become a new favorite. It's a luxurious experience to enjoy a small amount of delicious meat. The pickles and vegetables were also tasty. I ordered a draft beer, so I opted for domestic beef instead of the more expensive Yamagata beef, but it was still delicious.

I gave up on waiting in the long line at Hanayama Udon and decided to try Shabu Shabu Yamawarau instead since I was already in Ginza. I was able to order the limited 20 servings of Yamagata Wagyu Hitsu-mabushi lunch (2530 yen) that I was curious about from Instagram. It was past 12 pm on a weekday, and I was lucky to get to try it. The dish was delicious with plenty of sliced Wagyu beef on top. The recommended way to eat it was written on a piece of paper: eat as it is, then with condiments, grated yam, and finally with tea poured over. The wasabi was a highlight! I enjoyed changing the flavors and the delicious Wagyu Hitsu-mabushi filled me up with happiness. The lunch came with pickles, water, and self-service coffee, and also included ice cream after the meal. When I went in February, the ice cream was strawberry flavored. I would like to go back next time to try their shabu-shabu. Thank you for the meal.

The interior of the restaurant is beautiful, and the roast beef lunch set was enjoyable with a hint of hitsumabushi style. The broth was delicious too. The all-you-can-eat pickles and coffee were tasty, and I was able to relax and enjoy my meal. Considering the price in Ginza, I would definitely visit again. The counter seats also looked nice.
