Located about a 7-minute walk from Hiroo Station, this upscale restaurant near Kogai Park offers a delicious seared motsu (offal) hot pot. I made a reservation for 7:00 pm on a weekday. The menu features a variety of dishes using ingredients from different regions, with a focus on Kyushu cuisine. I ordered the following items: "Hakata seared motsu hot pot soy sauce/miso" ¥2,280 (per person), "Chicken Nanban" ¥980, and "Mentaiko rolled omelette" ¥720. The hot pot selection was extensive, but I decided to try the seared motsu hot pot as it sounded unique. I also couldn't resist ordering the Chicken Nanban due to the enticing menu photos. The seared motsu hot pot was filled with deliciously seared offal, with a choice of soy sauce or miso broth. I recommend the soy sauce broth as it complemented the richness of the seared offal. The miso broth was also tasty, but quite intense, especially when combined with the fatty offal. The dish included plenty of leeks and cabbage, providing a good amount of vegetables. I ordered the zosui (rice porridge) set with the soy sauce broth and the champon noodles set with the miso broth for a satisfying finish. The restaurant had a great ambiance and the staff were friendly, making it a recommended spot for a date night.

Came here for a post-golf reflection session with friends. I had no idea there was such a nice restaurant in this area. The menu looked like that of an izakaya, but everything I tried was delicious. The pork hot pot was especially tasty. The soup with grated yam and pork was delicious. I definitely want to come back after golfing again.

I remembered a place I visited a while ago and decided to post about it now! Sorry if my memory is a bit fuzzy! The atmosphere was very classy and nice. The service was great, the staff did a good job. Thank you. The food, including horse sashimi and motsunabe (offal hot pot), was pretty delicious overall! I'm not a big fan of horse sashimi, but the liver was tasty! The motsunabe was really delicious! Overall, I think it's a pretty good restaurant! Thank you for the meal♪♪

Located just a stone's throw away from Nishi-Azabu intersection! Enjoy exquisite hot pot dishes in a beautiful setting...✨ Starting from motsunabe, sukiyaki, and shabu-shabu, the specialty "Horse liver sashimi" stands out as the best I've ever had, with no unpleasant taste and a perfect crunchy texture. And the "Grilled salted beef tongue wrapped in tofu skin" is also delicious, with tender wagyu beef tongue and a hint of lemon. Add some alcohol to the mix, and the party is complete. You're guaranteed to have a great evening here, so be sure to enjoy it with your loved ones at this special restaurant.

I will definitely be using this place often! They have a wide variety of options for when you're craving hot pot, so I highly recommend it. This time I had the Mizutaki hot pot, and the soup was delicious and exquisite. I also recommend trying the limited quantity dish, raw liver sashimi, which I order every time. I tried the new menu item, Wagyu beef with leek and salted rice ball knot, and I preferred it over the thick-cut tongue. Another must-try is the mapo tofu, it's really delicious! The cold Goto udon noodles are also a new menu item, and they were refreshing and perfect for summer! I will definitely be going back soon.

I was craving hot pot and was searching for a restaurant in Roppongi/Azabu area when I found this place. When I called, they said they could seat me right away, so I decided to go. The restaurant is located in Nishi-Azabu, hidden in a residential area. I had been eating hot pot almost every day, so I wanted to try something different and ordered the ◆ grated yam hot pot. It took a little while for the hot pot to arrive, but while waiting, I enjoyed some tamagoyaki and drinks. The grated yam hot pot was very yellow and extremely slimy, and I remember being surprised by the texture as it was my first time trying this type of hot pot. I ended the meal with zosui, which paired perfectly with the slimy texture. I would love to visit again when I crave hot pot. Thank you for the delicious meal.

I visited the motsunabe restaurant "Gukuu" in Hiroo, introduced by an acquaintance! The menu is reasonably priced, and today I chose the Okinawa Agu pork with grated yam hot pot! The renowned Agu pork had a delicious umami and sweetness. Afterwards, I added the grated yam to complete the dish! It was an exquisite hot pot with the deliciousness of the pork and the mellow flavor of the yam! The other a la carte menu items were also excellent, with superb horse sashimi and Miyazaki chicken nanban. I will definitely go back again next time!

I had pickled mackerel, mentaiko wrapped in seaweed, and grilled tripe hot pot. It took about 30 minutes for the appetizers to arrive, which was quite a long wait. The pickled mackerel is a specialty and it was delicious with its rich flavor. The grilled tripe hot pot was new to me. It had a smoky and tasty flavor, but it was heavy and spicy. I wish they had mentioned the spiciness on the menu! The service was typical of an izakaya. Thank you for the meal!

Visited around 19:30☺︎ A motsunabe restaurant in Hiroo with a stylish interior that feels like it belongs in Minato-ku. In addition to motsunabe, they also offer a variety of dishes as an izakaya. The food was just delicious. Perhaps because my expectations were high, the taste wasn't as amazing as I imagined, but it was still good. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, so if you want to enjoy motsunabe in a trendy setting, this place is good.

It's getting quite cold in December, so I headed to Nishi-Azabu in search of warm hot pot dishes. I found a restaurant called "Wokoku" and made a reservation right away. It's located about 300m south of the Nishi-Azabu intersection, where the foot traffic starts to thin out. The menu features dishes like Mizutaki, Saga beef shabu-shabu, and sukiyaki, all inspired by Kyushu cuisine. However, since I was with a friend from Hakata, we decided to try the "Agu Totoro Nabe" instead. Despite the Kyushu theme, they actually use Agu pork from Okinawa, so it seems they aren't too strict about sticking to Kyushu ingredients or dishes (laughs). We started with a Saga beef salad, which was delicious with the fatty Saga beef complementing the vegetables well. Next, we ordered a horse sashimi platter, which turned out to be quite a large portion for the price of 3,480 yen. It was too much for us! (laughs) Once you order it, you won't need to order it again. I thought it would be better to reduce the quantity and lower the price. Finally, the main dish was the Totoro hot pot. It was filled with plenty of vegetables, topped with Agu pork, and generously covered with grated yam by the staff. As a dish, it was very tasty, and as a fan of grated yam, I couldn't get enough of it. While some items may seem a bit pricey, overall, the prices are reasonable. Despite being a bit off, being able to enjoy delicious food and drinks at this price range in Nishi-Azabu is not bad at all. The only thing that bothered me was that smoking was allowed throughout the restaurant. The two women at the next table were smoking cigarettes the whole time, which was quite distracting. The lack of awareness of the female customers smoking cigarettes and the attitude of the restaurant allowing it was concerning. It felt like they weren't keeping up with the times.

The motsunabe (standard one) is too delicious. I visited once and couldn't forget it, so I had to go again!! The ramen at the end is also delicious, I can't forget it, I will go again soon ❤︎

First, let's talk about the location. It's located between Hiroo and Nishi-Azabu, so you can take a taxi there or enjoy a walk from Nishi-Azabu if the weather is nice. The entrance is a bit hidden from the main street, giving it a cozy feel. The restaurant is stylish, the staff are professional, and we opted for the motsunabe course. It was great value for money, and I definitely want to go back again!

First time visiting this restaurant. I had a wonderful hot pot after a long time. The atmosphere was great, and surprisingly reasonable for its location in Nishi-Azabu. Both the mood and the taste were excellent. Definitely worth a try.

It was delicious. We also had horse sashimi and mentaiko. The 4-person portion of motsunabe was large.

The white mapo tofu and grilled motsu hot pot might be good when drinking alcohol as the flavor is strong. This time it was non-alcoholic so the flavor was too strong.

New motsunabe with a snack-like twist. It's smoky and delicious, but the mentaiko dashi roll was disappointing, like something you'd find in a department store basement.

There are private rooms available, and the staff is very considerate, making it great for entertaining guests! The food is also delicious!

Black oolong tea, orange sour, and orange juice all tasted watered down. When I ordered thick rolled omelette, it came out as a half-size for some reason. The beef tripe hot pot was also bland, and everything I ordered made me feel sad. I never want to go back there, and I even thought about warning my friends not to go.

I went to the restaurant and ordered the recommended seared miso offal hot pot. I was curious about the searing process, but it had a bacon-like aroma and was delicious. I might get addicted to it. I don't usually have the urge to eat offal hot pot, but I would definitely want to eat this one again. I'm glad I asked the staff for recommendations! The service at the restaurant was also very nice and made me feel good. I will definitely visit again.
