Asakusa Imahan Kokusai Dori Honten

Reviewed By Garry C

We came for dinner. We ordered two Shabu-Shabu set dinner with 2 different grades of beef. The waitresses guided us the whole way and provided excellent service throughout. The food was delicious starting from the appetizers to entrees and dessert. It was a bit pricy but well worth the price.

Innsyoutei

Reviewed By Diane T

The restaurant serves traditional kaiseki food. Although our menu was supposed to contain meat, we managed to get a fish-only option, which was absolutely amazing! I was also told they can prepare a fully vegetarian course if booked in advance.Beautiful location and very fine dining for a great experience.

Tonkatsu Marugo

Reviewed By marimaryap

It's only fitting to have eaten the best tonkatsu in Japan, or anything Japanese for that matter. Featured in Tokyo's Michelin Guide 2016, Takayoshi Takeuchi's mastery of the "low temperature frying" technique has garnered quite the followers Marugo has to date, both locals and tourists. Now, don't let the line outside deter you because I promise you the wait is worthwhile.I say go with the Set Menu, that's what we did. It includes a bowl of rice, red miso soup, and pickles. And if you want a second bowl of rice or extra cabbage, just say - "Okawari kudasai!"TONKATSU (Â¥2,100) -- I got the pork medallions vs. the pork loin cutlet as I wanted the convenience of eating each piece dipped in different sauces (tonkatsu sauce, no sauce, or just a squirt of lemon and some salt). If you ask what I prefer, it's hard to pick. I enjoyed them all individually because the fact of the matter is, the tonkatsu itself is golden - literally! The breading was outstanding while the meat inside was marvelously melt-in-your-mouth good. It's unreal! Anyway you eat it, the taste remains superb.Their house tonkatsu sauce deserves a shout out. I love how it's so well-balanced with the tartness and sweetness that it doesn't mask the beautiful pork, if anything, it elevates it in new heights. The red miso soup is rather unique with a bolder and heartier taste profile compared to what we're accustomed to. I dig it, a lot! As for the cabbage, it just works in this meal, period. Knock yourself out with the orange colored dressing on the table. Heck, even the rice is a mastery. Okawari Kudasai, for sure! CHICKEN-KATSU (Â¥1,450) -- I try to avoid poultry if I can being both a carnivore and a seafood aficionado. After having a piece of the breaded white meat, I gave myself a second to stop and enjoy the moment of pure bliss. Did they just kill a chicken at the back and fry it? It's tender, juicy, and nothing like the chicken here in the States. If there's such thing as an A5 Miyazaki chicken, this would be it. Like anywhere in Japan, customer service is beyond amazing whether you are in a McDonald's or a fine dining establishment. And the craziest part? There's no tipping! I'm blown away that up to this day, I'm still reminiscing about the heavenly meal I had here.

Asakusa Okonomiyaki Sometaro

Reviewed By Linda K

Sometarō which is located in an unair-conditioned historic, vine-covered house and specializes in traditional Japanese dishes. There is only tatimi seating, and they only take cash. The menu is really quite varied, and offers a number of “sets” as well, though we were never able to quite figure out what the sets included. On the menu is Yakisoba, described as chow mein; Tepanyaki; and Okonomi-Yaki. In addition the menu had directions on how to cook Okonomi-Yaki, Shumai-ten, Anko-maki, Gomoku-Yaki and Osome-yaki. We ordered Okonomi-Yaki, the Gomokuten with steamed cuttlefish, steamed shrimp, egg, cabbage, minced meat (beef and pork, bits of fried batter left after cooking tempura (squid) ¥870; and, Gyuuten with minced meat (beef & pork), cabbage, egg, sliced beef ¥870. Our dishes were very good, and neither of us would have been able to eat more, but both of us would have liked to try some of the other dishes. The restaurant is relatively small, and there was a line at 11:45 AM (before the noon opening). Since each table cooks their own food, should one miss the first "seating," the wait for an available table could be an hour or so, but it is worth the wait.

Ramen Yoroiya

Reviewed By stevejnb

We wanted an early dinner. Nothing too extensive. This was 300m from our hotel and had great reviews in TA. We turned up, queued for about 10 mins then sat at the bar with a beer each, a bowl of ramen each and chicken gyozas - the best we’ve tasted yet. All done in about an hour for under 30€. Can’t be beaten. Cash only. Fully recommend the great food and lovely chefs. Gracias por visitar nuestra tienda Gracias por su excelente evaluación y cumplidos. Esperamos verte de nuevo.

Steak House Pound Akihabara

Reviewed By myriahs2014

I just finished my meal here and I have to say the steaks (and service) are amazing! Our waiter explained the pricing and options right at the beginning and showed us our cuts before they were prepared. The Kobe beef was out of my price range this time around (~32g for $479), but the wagyu did not disappoint at all. My boyfriend and I shared the sirloin and tenderloin with the gratin and garlic rice sides. The meat was so flavorful we didn’t even need the sauces that were available. Overall, we would definitely recommend :)

Everything about the experience was excellent -- the food, the staff (who are also the performers) and the Japanese shamisen music! This is a short walk from Asakusa, where the Sensoki or Asakusa Kannon Temple is located. The restaurant is off the beaten track and so worth it!
