I am confused by these reviews. We booked a reservation here because the restaurant had such great reviews on google and on tablelog, but wow this is the first and only time I’ve ever felt scammed in Japan. You pay $100 for the exact same beef - EXACT same: same amount, same cuts - that they sell just outside (out of the same restaurant) for like $5 on a stick. I thought we’d be getting more beef, at a higher quality, and getting an engaging show of preparation. But it’s legit the exact same as if you ordered from a food stall, with the addition of a few veggies (and I really mean a few, I got one broccolini, half a radish, two mushrooms, 1/4 of a potato). My wife and I left $224 poorer, and we had the smallest steaks possible, miso soup, a salad, rice, and one glass of wine. If you want fried rice (instead of plain white) it’s also extra money. We were in and out in less than 30 minutes. There’s no engaging with the cook, and cooking that amount of steak and veg takes no time at all so it truly just felt like we went in, got hustled, and left. I really am shocked, I feel sick at how much money we paid for what we could’ve gotten for maybe $15 at Nishiki market. Avoid. Or, just go to the stall outside. I wish I had just walked out when they gave me the menu but considering it’s in grams and yen, I didn’t put together what I was paying for the amount I was getting until I saw it - and that’s my own mistake.
