For lunch, I tried the famous oyakodon, and for dinner, I opted for the omakase course priced at 12,500 yen. In conclusion, it was a wonderful course that brought out the deliciousness of chicken without doing too much, allowing you to enjoy various parts of the chicken. The course included dishes such as sweet and savory shiitake mushrooms and finely ground chicken meatballs, chicken sashimi seasoned with wasabi soy sauce, two small chicken mince cutlets, a comparison of salt-grilled thigh meat from Cochin and Hinaidori chicken, crispy chicken skin skewers, salt-grilled chicken wings, skewers of neck meat and cartilage meat, and deep-fried chicken wings, salad with breast meat, skewers of gizzard and liver, and finally, a closing dish of oyakodon. The total cost ended up being around 14,000 yen after about an hour and a half. The grilled skewers were seasoned with salt only, and the chicken was delicious with a clean and unobtrusive taste. The meat was not tough but had a good chewy texture, allowing you to fully appreciate its flavor. The owner had a sharp and focused demeanor, like a slim sword craftsman, and he gave orders in a commanding tone to his female assistants, which was a bit intimidating. However, the assistants were skilled and worked efficiently, creating a pleasant atmosphere. As the peak of the meal passed, everyone, including the owner, seemed to relax and even share a laugh. I personally enjoy watching experienced owners like him work hard at the forefront, which motivates me to do my best in my own work. The closing dish of oyakodon was also delicious, but personally, I prefer less sauce in the bowl. When leaving, the owner, with a kind look in his eyes, thanked me and said, "Thank you for coming. Have a good day." It was a delightful experience.

Everyone has different expectations when it comes to food, but the premium Oyakodon served at Toritsune Shizen Dou is like a dish that captures the moment of "this is it" for many people. The most eye-catching element is the gorgeous half-cooked egg. Its yolk shines like the sun on top of the dish. Beneath it, tender simmered giblets and juicy chicken meat are hidden. When you take a bite, the creamy texture of the egg spreads in your mouth, followed by the deep flavor of the giblets. The giblets have no unpleasant smell and instead, their unique taste enhances the surprising deliciousness of the Oyakodon. Furthermore, the juiciness of the chicken meat follows, creating a harmonious blend of the three ingredients that leaves a pleasant aftertaste in your mouth. The restaurant attracts many visitors from overseas, with lines forming even before opening. However, this popularity is well-deserved. There is a satisfaction beyond any review or rating, an indescribable sense of fulfillment here. After the meal, the pickles and gentle-tasting chicken soup provided leave your stomach and heart content. The cozy atmosphere inside allows for a comfortable experience whether dining alone, as a couple, or with family. This premium Oyakodon dish delivers a multitude of emotions in one plate. It goes beyond just a meal, it is the ultimate dish that pursues each person's idea of "deliciousness," and once you taste it, you will surely not forget it. So, if you're unsure of what to eat for your next lunch, consider choosing the premium Oyakodon at Toritsune Shizen Dou. Its flavor may just change your perspective on food.

It's more like a bowl of rice topped with simmered giblets and a superb egg. I wonder how many eggs they use? It's a creamy chicken and egg bowl. The giblets are soft and don't have any unpleasant smell, so even people who don't like giblets might enjoy it. Maybe it's because it's top quality, but the chicken is firm and has a good texture, making it delicious! The chicken soup also has a gentle flavor. What could be the difference between a regular oyakodon and the top quality and special top quality ones? Next time, I'll go for the special top quality oyakodon to fully enjoy the incredibly delicious chicken.

Wow!!! You can't find this quality of oyakodon for this price anywhere else!!! It's really, really delicious!! For just 1200 yen, you get a oyakodon with creamy eggs and tender chicken breast!!! I was lucky to be able to walk in without waiting!!

On August 21, 2023, I visited Toritsune in Suehirocho for the first time for lunch. I ordered the Motsu-ni Oyakodon for 1,500 yen. It was my first time trying Oyakodon with motsu (offal), and it was served in about 10 minutes. The texture of the chicken and the doneness of the egg were excellent. When I added a suitable amount of sansho pepper and shichimi on top, it became even more delicious. The motsu had a slight bitterness, but it was tender and tasty without any strong flavors. The pickles and chicken soup were also delicious. The portion size was just right, and I was satisfied with the Oyakodon. There were also many foreign customers. If you arrive 15 minutes before opening, you might be able to get in on the first round of seating. Thank you for the meal!

I will now share with you the many photos I took of the ultimate Oyakodon (chicken and egg rice bowl) that captivated me (with explanations). Premium motsu (chicken liver) Oyakodon... The deliciousness of the motsu really stands out. Eating motsu from Toritsune made me realize that what I had previously thought was the unique flavor of liver was actually just its strong taste and smell. With this dish, you can taste the pure deliciousness of liver without any noise in your sense of smell and taste. Katsu-don... Even though it should be made with chicken breast meat, the lack of toughness and dryness in this dish is surprising. This is probably due to the high quality of the meat and the meticulous preparation. Toritsune's katsu-don can rival pork loin katsu-don without a doubt. If Oyakodon is the ultimate, then Katsu-don is also the ultimate. Premium Sashimi Oyakodon... A rare item that I only get to enjoy during long holidays. To clearly articulate the difference between this and the premium Oyakodon, I would need to visit the restaurant regularly for a considerable period of time. But it is delicious. Premium Oyakodon... The egg is deliberately roughly beaten and left half-cooked, allowing you to enjoy the different flavors of the yolk and the egg white. Without this dish, I would have never become a fan of Toritsune. In terms of visual appeal, ingredients, texture, and taste, this masterpiece deserves a perfect score without a doubt. This premium Oyakodon is what taught me about the quality of chicken meat. Using chicken meat that is on a completely different level compared to department store fried chicken, this dish is truly the king of all Oyakodon dishes. Draft beer... The fact that they do not serve the Silver Label beer shows Toritsune's absolute confidence and dedication to taste. The Kirin Brau Meister is delicious. Bottled beer... Kirin Lager. It's what you would call a regular beer, but it feels remarkably robust when you drink it at Toritsune. It's reassuring that they choose beers that won't disappoint their customers. SPRING VALLEY Aromatic <496>... This is a craft beer, also known as 496. It may feel slightly softer compared to other Kirin products, but it still has a bold flavor that can stand up to the Oyakodon. I order this beer about twice a year. Pickles, chicken salad, chicken shinjo... My way of waiting for the Oyakodon is to drink beer or highball until it arrives. They make great companions. Chicken soup... The idea of finishing a meal with something heavily seasoned or high in calories does not apply here. Don't forget to enjoy the chicken broth soup at the end of your meal while reflecting on what chicken broth really is. During my visit in the Golden Week of Reiwa 4, the katsu-don was sold out early, which was unexpected. It was the first time I heard the exchange "I'd like the katsu-don" - "Sorry, it's sold out" multiple times in the restaurant! Even the motsu was sold out early, and I barely managed to get my order in. Perhaps the supply of ingredients couldn't keep up...? I hope that after the Obon holiday, the supply will stabilize! This is about all I can review as someone who only visits during lunchtime.

Arrived at the restaurant 30 minutes before opening. Only one couple had a prior reservation. I thought about going for a walk since I had some time to spare, but it was too hot so I decided to just wait in line. It was drizzling, so the line at opening time was only 5 people. It had been 15 years since I last visited Toritsune Shizen Dou, when a senior colleague took me there at night. This time, I was there for lunch for the first time. Since I was alone, I sat at the counter and ordered the Special Oyakodon priced at 2300 yen. While waiting, more and more customers arrived, and by the time my order was ready, the restaurant was full. There were quite a few foreign customers, perhaps the restaurant is featured in guidebooks. Now, the Special Oyakodon had arrived. The half-cooked egg and the generous amount of sauce made it look delicious even before taking a bite. The flavor was rich and satisfying all the way to the bottom of the rice, which was very pleasing. The texture of the chicken and the lack of any off-putting taste in the offal met my high expectations set by the price and the information I had beforehand. It was a delicious meal.

Visited on a Saturday afternoon during opening hours. Was seated on the 12th floor. Placed my order as soon as I entered, and I had the oyakodon with motsu for 1500 yen. Had to take off my shoes before going up to the 2nd floor. There was also a premium option for 2000 yen, but I decided to stick with the lunch special. The oyakodon with chicken liver had a mild and gentle flavor. Some might prefer a richer taste, but the generous amount of liver will help you get through the summer.

I have come multiple times for lunch to enjoy the famous oyakodon made with Hinai-jidori and Nagoya Cochin chicken, but today I finally splurged on the dinner "Chicken Soup Hot Pot Course" (9,000 yen) that I've been longing for. First, appetizers of "tsukune" and "shiitake" soaked in broth, followed by fried "tebasaki" and "menchi". These alone were satisfying, but the main event was the hot pot. A large plate of Hinai-jidori and Nagoya Cochin chicken thighs, hearts, livers, calves, etc. are elegantly arranged based on their raising period. Just as I thought they would all be thrown into the pot at once, the staff carefully served each part one by one at the perfect timing. After the chicken, came the vegetables (shiitake, cabbage, green onions), and then the fluffy tartare. To finish, a deliciously rich soup with the essence of the ingredients for a porridge. Truly an exquisite chicken full course meal. It's a rare luxury, the price is high, but it is definitely worth it.

Today, I wanted to eat a delicious oyakodon in Akihabara before a meeting in Tokyo. I left my luggage at the hotel and headed straight to the restaurant, arriving around 11:10 am. There was no line yet, so I took a break from the heat at a nearby convenience store. Around 11:20 am, I returned to the restaurant to find that there were already 6 people waiting in line. The restaurant opened at 11:30 am and I was seated at the counter as a solo diner. I ordered the special oyakodon for 2000 yen, which is limited to 20 servings. First, I was served barley tea and pickles. The chicken soup was quite light in flavor. Shortly after, the orange-colored oyakodon was served. The chicken was very tender and the egg was fluffy. The seasoning was a bit salty at first, but it balanced out as I continued eating. The portion size was just right and I enjoyed it until the end. By 11:40 am, the restaurant was full. It was a delicious meal, thanks for the treat!

I went to Toritsune for the first time while shopping! I arrived at the store 3 minutes before the 11:30 opening time, and there were already 8 people in line, but I was seated at a table on the first floor after the first round. I ordered the special Tori-don set (¥3,500), which is limited to 20 servings and consists of a special Tori-don as the main dish, and a lunch draft beer (¥400) to combat the heat. First, I was served beer and pickles, followed by a small croquette-like Tori-shinjo and salt. It was quite delicious, and worth ordering the set! Then came a salad topped with chicken and a slightly thin chicken soup, and finally the special Tori-don arrived. The chicken was okay, but the creamy texture of the egg made the Tori-don delicious. I was impressed by the taste of the shinjo, so I may have had high expectations. I was looking at the sake menu, which had a lot of Ginjo and Daiginjo options, with quite high prices, maybe more suitable for tasting events.

I felt like having oyakodon after a long time, so I walked from Akihabara Station to the restaurant. It was raining, but when you really want something to eat, nothing else matters. The special oyakodon is a bit pricey, but the satisfaction you get is worth it at this restaurant.

I visited around 11:30 on a weekday and there was no wait. Since the restaurant is quite expensive at night, I decided to order the Oyakodon (chicken and egg rice bowl) for 1500 yen with extra rice for 100 yen. First, I had the clear soup which was quite light and allowed me to taste the broth. The Oyakodon arrived in about 5 minutes. When I took a bite, I found it to be quite strong in flavor. The broth was flavorful but the seasoning was a bit too salty. Even with the extra rice, the bowl was overflowing with sauce, so I imagine the regular size would be even saltier. The chicken was lean and closer to the breast, lacking the juiciness of the thigh meat. The egg was cooked perfectly, with a rich yolk that was delicious. Overall, considering the price, it was just okay. I don't expect such saltiness from a high-end restaurant. If the quality was the same as a 1200 yen Oyakodon, I might rate it higher. I would like to try the regular size to compare the flavor. I may revisit if I have the chance.

"【Toritsune Shizen Dou】- Oyakodon for 1500 yen, located 2 minutes walk from Suehirocho Station. Closed on Sundays and holidays. I've been craving Oyakodon for the past 2-3 weeks, but many of the places I wanted to go to were closed on weekends, so I ended up in this mysterious place called Suehirocho. I was debating whether to go for the special Oyakodon, but today I went with the regular Oyakodon. The dish arrived quite quickly after ordering. The egg was cooked to a creamy consistency, with some parts still runny. The presentation was appetizing and made me hungry. I mixed the rice, egg, and chicken with my chopsticks! Some parts had the egg still raw, creating a creamy rice and egg dish, which was a good match for the Oyakodon! The chicken itself was delicious, and the contrast between the creamy and well-cooked parts added to the overall taste. However, personally, I found the flavor to be a bit mild. It could just be that I prefer stronger flavors though. But when I reset my palate with some pickles before eating, the acidity of the pickles enhanced the sweet and savory flavors of the Oyakodon, creating a perfect balance. Finally, my craving was satisfied. Thank you for the meal."

We visited with seven people for lunch at 12 o'clock on a regular day and were smoothly seated on the second floor. The first floor is mainly counter seating and is narrow. The parent and child bowl costs 1400 yen. It seems there is also a branch in Yushima. They have a wide variety of sake. I would like to go back at night.

If you want to eat chicken dishes, this is the place to go! The menu isn't very extensive, but you can try everything they offer. The hot pot uses local chicken (I think it was Hichin and Nagoya Cochin), and the crispy texture is irresistible. The grilled dish that comes out first is delicious, and the salad and croquettes were also tasty. I also tried the popular parent and child bowl for lunch, which was delicious and creamy.

I had lunch at the bird cuisine restaurant "Toritsune Shizenhoro" near Suehirocho subway station after a long time. The only item on the menu is the parent and child bowl. This time, I ordered the special parent and child bowl with motsu (offal) added. Some may be surprised by the addition of motsu, but it is really delicious! The fresh chicken motsu is just as delicious as regular chicken meat. The egg, chicken meat, and sauce are all delicious, creating the ultimate chicken and egg rice bowl. I devoured it quickly and it was gone in no time. The price has gone up by about 200 yen compared to last year, now priced at 2,300 yen. It's hard to say if it's expensive or a well-deserved lunch treat.

Today's second meal was at "Toritsushin Zen Do High School," a manga-like high school where students learn Zen. I visited "Toritsune Shizen Dou" at 11:34. There was no line, and I was guided to the second-floor seat. I ordered the Oyakodon set for 2700 yen. Here is my review: - Oyakodon Set (with Torishinjo and Tori Salad) The overall taste of the Oyakodon was bland. Some parts were slightly flavorful, but there was inconsistency in taste. The chicken used was of good quality, but the dish had its ups and downs. - Tori Salad A salad with chicken breast on top. It was decently tasty. - Torishinjo (2 pieces) These were tiny! They were like snacks for kittens. The taste was average, with minced chicken covered in batter and fried. - Soup It was more like a clear broth. The taste was also weak. Not good. The set felt like a waste of money. It didn't meet the quality for the price of 1500 yen. At least if the Oyakodon itself was delicious, it would have been acceptable. I might consider revisiting for another try. The service was very good. Thank you for the meal.

Tsune Tori Shizen Hora @ Suehirocho (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo) Premium Oyakodon ¥2,000 Set ¥1,500 Score 3.3/5 The Oyakodon is delicious. Well, of course, considering the price. However, I noticed that the dashi (broth) was uneven in flavor, which bothered me. Also, personally, I don't like it when the eggs are partially raw. The chicken meat, which I think was thigh meat, had a very chewy texture, almost like breast meat. The eggs were dark in color and probably rich in flavor. Most likely, they used good quality chicken. If you're just ordering the Oyakodon, the price is still acceptable, and I recommend trying it at least once. (I'm not sure if it needs to be a premium dish though.) However, the issue lies with the set. It comes with salad and what they call "tori shinjo," but for ¥1,500, I was not satisfied with it. The tori shinjo was like minced meat in small portions, as shown in the fourth photo, only reaching up to the second joint of my index finger. It didn't impress me with its taste either. Regardless of the quality of the chicken used, the value for money with just the salad and tori shinjo is not justified. If you're going to order, I recommend just getting the Oyakodon. I found the set to have poor cost performance, so I'm deducting 0.5 from the score. #TsuneTori #TsuneToriShizenHora #SuehirochoOyakodon #SuehirochoGourmet

I came to Toritsune with a friend, and I thought it was recently, but when I checked my food log, I realized that the last time I came was back in June last year. It's been 10 months already. Time flies so fast. This time, I came alone after visiting the 100 Illustrators Exhibition. It was just past 1 pm, but I managed to make it in time. Even though it was close to the end of lunch hours, there were quite a few customers inside, so I took a seat at the counter. I ordered the "Special Chicken and Egg Bowl." The menu outside the restaurant listed it for 2000 yen, but the menu inside had a 50 yen discount. First, I was served pickles, followed by a light miso soup. The pickles were quite salty, while the soup was mild. After enjoying the flavorful chicken and egg bowl, the light soup complemented the meal well. In about 5-6 minutes, the special chicken and egg bowl arrived. Toritsune's special chicken and egg bowl is so delicious that it sets a higher standard for other chicken and egg bowls. It uses two types of chicken, one with a firm texture and the other tender, mixed with two types of eggs – one with a shape and the other with a creamy texture. The creamy egg soaked into the rice like a delicious egg over rice dish. The broth was perfectly seasoned, not too sweet or salty. Every bite from top to bottom was delicious. While 2000 yen may seem expensive, the quality of the dish makes it worth it. It was delicious! I don't know when I'll be back again, but I'll definitely visit when I'm in Akihabara next time!

I visited Toritsune for lunch after a long time. I arrived around 11:30 am and was seated on the second floor without having to wait in line. This restaurant is famous for its oyakodon (chicken and egg rice bowl). Especially the motsu (offal) tends to sell out quickly, so I recommend visiting early. I received my food in about 10 minutes. The meat and flavor were both elegant. This restaurant has a high quality feel, making it suitable for business meals as well. The elegant donburi was also delicious. Thank you for the meal.
