Tokyo Restaurant Guide
Best Yakiniku
In Shinjuku
Shinjuku's yakiniku scene thrives on volume and accessibility, with options from premium Wagyu specialists to casual late night grills that keep Kabukicho fed until dawn. High end spots like YAKINIKU USHIJIRUSHI serve exclusive Traji Wagyu from their own farm in upscale Nishishinjuku settings, while neighborhood favorites like Hiromiya No.3 pack tables with all you-can eat formats and BYOB policies that turn dinner into a party. The district's specialty lies in beef tongue variations—from the lemon marinated cuts at Shinjuku Yakiniku Gyutan no Lemon to the counter only preparations at Tanyaki Shinobu. Walk in dining works at most mid tier spots, making this the rare Tokyo neighborhood where spontaneous yakiniku cravings can actually be satisfied without advance planning.
