Great time with friends! The meat selections were varied and kept coming. The beer was cold and the atmosphere casual. Meat selections included beef, pork sausage, liver and tripe.

A yakinuki is a Japanese BBQ grill restaurant where you cook off a gas grill inset into the table. Different types and cuts of meats with and without marinades are available. Side dishes include Korean kimchi to spice things up. Keijo Yakinuki is off a small side street close to the Suidobashi metro... station. There is no English signage so unless someone tells you about it, it's doubtful that you'll find it. However, if you do, you'll enjoy a simple, no frills, and highly efficient meal. The thin cut steak slices are easier to cook than the cubed beef and the short ribs without bones were also flavorful. I've experienced BBQ Korean meats before and find them more flavorful. A meal for 2 can cost close to USD80 so it's not inexpensive, and I think you can find better places for the same price though I personally don't know of any.

A yakiniku is a Japanese grill restaurant where food is cooked on a gas grill (as opposed to a hot top (teppan yaki) or hot stones (robata) cooking. Keijo is on a small back street with no signage in English so if you didn't know it was there, you would walk right by. The restaurant appears to be fr...equented by locals and until recently, did not have a menu in English. The menu is comprised of different cuts of meat (some marinaded) and a few side dishes like vegetables and kimchi. The meat portions are fairly small and somewhat expensive. The meat seasoning is subtle, in contrast to Korean BBQ meats which have a stronger, more earthy flavor. We enjoyed the meal, but it was more memorable for the tight, authentic ambience of a neighborhood grill joint than for the food.
