KOENJI: Yakiniku LIKE for their all you can eat rice, kimchee and seaweed soup! Plus rubbery sukiyaki beef!! (Sony RX100M2)

This solo Yakiniku Like franchise has been booming since Covid... dine alone in social distance was a huge headwind for their quick expansion.  FINIALLY I MADE IT!

The free stuff posters were plastered all over the entrance and everywhere... so overwhelming.

Touch panel ordering system that also has English.


Was either going for the Pork Bara-Kalbi 591 yen or...

The Gyu-Suki Yakiniku 655 yen... Ok I splurged and went for this! Later to regret

Free Rice, Soup and Kimchee refills... Dec 1-9! 

If you add this shop as LINE friend you get a free bottle of coke or tea.  

So much 80s and 90s US Rock on the BGM.  

Here it is!!  


Beef so nicely lined up.


Mini kimchee.




Here we go!

OK now for the beef review.  Grilled it normally... super rubbery.
Then grilled it on the verge of Burnt but still super rubbery!  This beef was like eating a piece of rubber... it was just sooooo bad.  Should have went with the pork. 



They had about 5 different kinds of sauces.


Sukiyaki Egg... yeah... beef was just so bad I didnt really dip it in here.

Got me some free Seaweed soup and mini kimchee refill!

More Rock! QUEEN buddy.

A little Green Day... think they play this kind of US rock to keep people from hanging around too long. Some of the songs were very heavy metal

Looked up to my right and this poster! Its 60 minutes all you can drink Lemon Sours and Hi-Ball!

This original Furikake was sooo tasty... yum. 


Last order is 10:30pm and I closed the shop down.  Overall the staff was very attentive, the freebies came out within a minute and the cozy solo counter seats were very nice.  BUT! The sukiyaki beef was honestly terrible... Definitely don`t order that!  Will try to go again for the pork.

FYI You All! Paypay is having a 30% cash back for Suginami-ku area!  My yakiniku set was 720 yen and got 216yen back. December 1-20th... 30% is huge! You can even buy Liquor at Kakuyasu!!
