The restaurant featured on YouTube channel "Wakki TV" was worth a visit. I went on a Wednesday around 8:00 PM and sat at a table by myself. Later, a group and a young couple arrived, filling up the first floor. I ordered the famous black pork dumplings set meal for 960 yen and the homemade thick-sliced roast pork for 850 yen, totaling 1,810 yen (including tax). The dumplings arrived 8 minutes later, they were large with finely chopped filling. The juices were just enough to come out when bitten. Both vinegar and regular sauce went well with them. The rice portion was quite generous. The soup had a gentle broth. This set meal was quite a bargain. Then, 10 minutes later, the roast pork arrived. It consisted of three large slices with cucumber and green onion sandwiched between them, and plenty of bean sprouts underneath. The fatty parts were tender and the lean parts were firm. It was a meaty roast pork. It made me want to try other dumplings as well. Thank you for the meal.

I wasn't planning on eating dumplings, but I was drawn in by a large yellow lantern with the word "dumplings" written on it at the back of an alley. I ended up ordering two types of pan-fried dumplings and boiled dumplings one after another, realizing that this was what I wanted to eat today. While beer is good, a strong lemon sour goes well with these hearty dumplings.

[Tanmen ¥830] This tanmen is delicious with plenty of vegetables and a flavorful white soup. The noodles are thick and satisfying. It's recommended to sprinkle plenty of black pepper and add vinegar before eating. Although the gyoza is famous, everything from the fried rice to the set meals is delicious at this restaurant.

Rating: 3.5【Solo dining ○, quick lunch ○, lunch between work ○】Located 3 minutes from Jimbocho Station, this gyoza specialty restaurant caught my attention with its distinctive exterior and wide variety of gyoza. It was my first visit. It seems to be under the umbrella of a company that operates the Kanda Gyoza-ya chain. When I visited around 12:20 on a weekday for lunch, there were several groups lined up, but the opening time was relatively early, and I was able to enter in about 10 minutes. The interior was filled with female customers dining alone. The lunch menu offers gyoza with white rice or half fried rice set, as well as a wide selection of noodles and rice dishes. For my first visit today, I chose the vegetable gyoza and half fried rice set. The vegetable gyoza had a rich flavor of what seemed to be highland cabbage with plenty of ingredients. The skin was chewy with a hint of sweetness. I felt the pride of being a gyoza specialty restaurant. With a wide variety of gyoza, I would like to try a different type next time. Thank you for the meal!

I indulge in black pork dumplings and shiso dumplings with beer. In a situation where I feel a bit hungry before dinner, dumplings are the best choice! That's why I ended up stopping by the main store of Kanda Gyoza. It's such a convenient location that it's hard to resist. Personally, I really like shiso.

I visited for lunch on a regular day. The set meal came with a generous portion of gyoza and half fried rice! Half fried rice?! The amount was surprising, and the gyoza were so big that one bite wasn't enough! It also came with soup, so I left feeling very full. Thank you for the meal! (^^)

I visited during the day on a regular day. When I arrived around 12:30, it was almost full and I was seated at a shared table. I ordered fried rice with 3 original gyoza. Although they forgot the gyoza at the gyoza shop, both dishes were delicious. The fried rice, in particular, had a rich flavor with shredded pork that was really good.

Located in the backstreets of Jinbocho, this Chinese restaurant serves incredibly generous portions. The rice servings are large, as well as the mapo eggplant dish. The dumplings come in a set of 3, but they are incredibly huge and packed with vegetables like leeks and garlic, giving them a sweet flavor. Recommended dishes include the mapo eggplant set and the dumplings.

I arrived as a lunch refugee during the Bon festival and enjoyed delicious bottled beer, gyoza, and mapo tofu. The atmosphere was like a typical town Chinese restaurant, with many people having work lunches. It seemed like not many people lingered for too long during lunchtime. The waitress was a bit imposing as she placed and removed dishes with a bang.

The area around Jimbocho was once filled with Chinese students studying abroad on the eve of the Xinhai Revolution, giving it the appearance of a Chinatown. There used to be many famous dumpling restaurants, including Sweet Pose. However, this time we are here for the mapo don. The Japanese-style mapo tofu is rich and creamy, not too spicy, making it perfect with rice. As Sichuan-style mapo tofu becomes more popular, this flavor remains comforting.

It's almost 3 PM but I made it in time for lunch, so today I ordered the stir-fried mushrooms and meat set meal, the stir-fried vegetables set meal, and added half an order of original dumplings. It arrived shortly after. The stir-fried mushrooms and meat had a lot of mushrooms and a good amount of fluffy eggs, with a nice texture. The meat was tender and flavorful. The stir-fried vegetables had a little minced meat in it, making it easy to eat. The set meals come with soup and rice. The half order of original dumplings had garlic in them but were made in a light style. I would like to try a different dish next time.

Visited "Kanda Gyoza-ya Honten". Ordered the original vegetable gyoza set with 6 and a half pieces, along with the famous black pork gyoza and spicy leek lemon sour. Arrived around 5 pm and didn't have to wait. The vegetable gyoza had a chewy skin and juicy filling, I could eat as many as I wanted. The black pork gyoza was surprisingly large and had a satisfying meaty texture. The fried rice had a nice balance of crispy and moist. Thank you for the meal. I will definitely go again.

I wasn't very hungry but wanted to eat something for lunch. Gyoza often comes to mind in these situations. I remembered a place I passed by before where they always have gyoza on the menu. I ordered the black pork gyoza. It was big, but lacking in flavor and had too much garlic for my taste. Other dishes being served to other lunch customers looked delicious. The restaurant seemed to have many regulars. Maybe I should try something other than gyoza next time, relying less on the restaurant name. I'll visit again another time.

I had a sudden craving for dumplings and went to this restaurant near Jimbocho Station. I ordered the black pork dumplings and half-fried rice set for 1050 yen. The restaurant closes early on Saturdays at 8 PM, so be aware of that. When the dumplings arrived, I was surprised by their size, which far exceeded my expectations. They were much larger than the vegetable dumplings my friend ordered. The most important thing, of course, is the taste. When I took a bite, the juicy meat overflowed. The dumpling skin was chewy and very satisfying. The large dumplings were packed full of meat, giving a great sense of satisfaction. They were so delicious that I want to visit again. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

The dumplings at this restaurant are incredibly delicious, which may be expected from a top three dumpling place in Tokyo. The most delicious one in my opinion is the shiso dumplings, which are packed full of meat. I believe the key to their deliciousness is the generous amount of filling used for each dumpling. The black pork dumplings are recommended as well, with plenty of filling and a nice chewy texture, but the vegetable dumplings, which are lighter and perfect for those looking for a more refreshing option, are also highly recommended.

I had the specialty black pork dumplings and half-fried rice set for 1150 yen including tax. I went to eat after seeing it on TV. The skin was chewy and delicious. The filling was flavorful and juicy. It was good even without any additional condiments. The fried rice was just okay. I have a favorite gyoza place in Kamata, so I couldn't help but compare. In that sense, it didn't leave a strong impression.

A happy restaurant in Jinbocho that is open on Sunday nights. It's nice that it's relaxed on Sundays while busier on weekdays. The black pork dumplings have a chewy skin and a meaty filling. The vegetable dumplings have a lighter skin with a delicious vegetable flavor. The mapo tofu is not too spicy, making it easy to eat. Beer goes well with the dumplings. Happy.

I visited a restaurant I was curious about for the first time. I was thinking of ordering fried rice, but decided to go with the daily special instead. The daily special was "青椒肉絲" (stir-fried pork with green peppers). I also added 3 popular black pork dumplings. Overall, the dishes were lightly seasoned but delicious. The stir-fried pork with green peppers had a nice texture and went well with rice. The dumplings were a bit on the larger side with thick skin, giving them a substantial feel. I personally prefer the filling to be a bit firmer, but they were still decent. I will try the fried rice next time.

I went to a university cafeteria during lunch break. Feeling a bit low on energy, I decided to eat some dumplings to cheer myself up before my next class. It was my first time at this restaurant, but the lady working there was kind, so I felt comfortable sitting down. They had dumplings made with black pork and vegetable dumplings, but I chose the cheaper option of vegetable dumplings as part of a set meal. It was delicious! I was happy that I could get a refill of rice too. Thank you for the meal!

Appearance The shop is located in a back alley about a 5-minute walk from Jimbocho Station on the Toei Subway Mita Line, Shinjuku Line, or Tokyo Metro Hanzomon Line. Nearby, you can see the famous Sanuki udon restaurant "Udon Maruka" on the side, and the shop is located in the back alley. The appearance of the shop has a somewhat cluttered feel, but if you look closely, you can see the famous Asakusa Kaikaro's bento boxes that are also used by famous ramen shops. Inside, the restaurant has more of an Indian restaurant feel rather than a Chinese restaurant, with a slightly oriental vibe. There are only 30 table seats in total, and during busy times, customers may have to share tables. Menu During lunchtime, there was a service lunch available. The prices are quite reasonable, giving off a sense of affordability in the competitive lunch market. As it is a Chinese restaurant, there were options like ramen and rice dishes as well. The variety is quite extensive, covering all the major dishes. The dumplings are a specialty, with a total of 8 types available. Ordering the dumplings as a set with ramen or fried rice, for example, offers a significant discount. Vegetable Dumplings I ordered the vegetable dumplings, and they were served in regular (6 pieces) size. The golden brown color of the dumplings was visually appealing. The size of each dumpling was slightly larger than average, making it quite satisfying to eat. The thin skin and the filling mainly consisting of cabbage were well-balanced and delicious. Fried Rice with Black Pork Dumplings Set Since I ordered the vegetable dumplings separately, I also ordered the set with black pork dumplings and fried rice. The soup that came with the fried rice had a rich and robust flavor, which I personally enjoyed. The fried rice had a good amount of ingredients, and the seasoning was simple with just salt and pepper, yet it was tasty and not overpowering. The dish was well-portioned and satisfying. Black Pork Dumplings The other specialty dumplings, black pork dumplings, normally come in a set of 6, but when ordered as a set with fried rice, it comes with 3 pieces. These dumplings were larger than usual, with a thin and slightly chewy skin, giving them a texture that falls between Chinese and Japanese dumplings. The filling mainly consisted of black pork mince, which was flavorful enough to be enjoyed without additional seasoning. Review "I will definitely come back again!"

It's well done, no waiting on a weekday evening at 6 o'clock. "Are you dining alone?" "Are you here for a meal?" they ask before seating you. They must get a lot of reservations. The gyoza is packed with meat and the skin is chewy. Good texture, overflowing with flavorful meat juices. The half-paralyzed nature of the fried rice is also professional work. But... overall, the flavor is a bit weak. It's probably a matter of personal preference, but I wanted more of a punch...
