This is one of the best Japanese BBQ places I’ve tried. Dinner was an amazing experience. The meats were upscale, the choices were outstanding and so was the taste. It’s a BBQ but the staff cooks for you table side that way it’s cooked to perfection. It was pricey to say the least but worth it for a splurge night! Waygu A5 was on point!!
4.5 / 5.0 - I’d had Yakiniku Futago on my list for ages and finally came for lunch yesterday with a friend. I didn’t even know they were open for lunch until recently and I’m guessing it’s not widely known because it wasn’t super busy. It is on the pricier side, but was so worth it.
For lunch, they have Regular and 1/2 size. The Regular is double the price of the 1/2 size and comes with 8 slices of meat—the 1/2 size comes with 4. My friend and I decided to get one of each, so we could each have 6 slices.
In addition to the BBQ, they had rice sets and other “add-on’s” like soup and salad, as well as other appetizer dishes and “beef sushi.”
We ordered:
- 1 Prime Short Rib (Kalbi) / Regular ($30+)
- 1 Prime Short Rib (Kalbi) / 1/2 ($15+)
- 2 Rice Sets ($5+ each)
- 1 Japanese Style Cold Noodles ($8+)
The regular size is served with salad, and the rice set included Japanese steamed rice, bone marrow egg soup and namul.
Everything was so delicious and the meat just melted in our mouths.
It is a spacious restaurant and the tables were spaced out, which was nice. And there is good ventilation right above the grill, so it didn’t get smokey at all.
$40+ is a bit expensive for lunch, especially for the amount of food you get, but it is high quality meat. If you love yakiniku and have never been, I highly recommend you give it a try!
Best BBQ by far! The chef knew every ingredients they dealt with. The meat was cut perfectly. Highly recommend the signature cuts - thick-cut tenderloin steak and thick-cut beef tongue were beyond expectation. The tenderloin was well balanced with the garlic butter sauce. The waiter served us was very knowledgable to explain the grill technics as well as how the sauce was made. It’s also a surprise they offered full dinner menu for weekend lunch. BTW, it’s more like Japanese & Korean fusion BBQ (not a problem but interesting to see they use scissors, serve bibimbap, serve lettuce for Wagyu)
