Motoyama Shinjukuten

We wanted to enjoy some Kobe beef without going broke... Doing our research and consulting the concierge at the Hilton where we stayed, we decided to give Yakiniku a try. It was in walking distance from the hotel! I little hard to find but we finally succeeded and they had our reservation ready. I...t was soooo good. All the meats and veggies were of highest quality and we cooked it all on our grill on the table! We ate and ate and ate until we couldn't eat anymore and our bill was still around $ 150.00 including Kobe beef and drinks! If we ever make it to Tokyo again, we will definitely return to this restaurant. For the record, we visited before the pandemic but TA does not let you go that far back....

Made reservation 1 day before. Arrived early, busy place, small space on the 2nd level off a quiet street off the main road Shinjuku. Had a nice corner table with english menu, ordered all sorts of top grade beef and innards. Service was great, and food came fast. Must try the seasoning of miso and ...yusu. Great meal with great top quality beef. We ordered and ate alot for a party of 5 persons. Total bill came to about 32K yen. I thought this was the best meal we had in Japan this vacation. The price for the meat quality is very reasonable and the service was just perfect. Left the place very satisfied and will for sure come back again.

We stumbled on to this place near our hotel on our trip to tokyo. We decided to try it because it offered wagyu beef. We ordered the set that cost 5500yen but it was VERY worth it. The beef was good, especially the kobe beef! Portions are ok but for big eaters you will not be full after this meal. A...lso, it is a smoking restaurant so we went really early to avoid the crowd before they came in and started smoking. Overall it’s an excellent place with really good quality beef.

We came as a big group of 15 - 10 adults 5 kids, and we had a great dinner. We wanted to eat good kobe beef, and we tried the different types they have to 'educate' ourselves of what is what. Servers speak english just fine, and we had no problem communicating. Food was great , only downside is ...there were people smoking indoor and place is a little bit small. But everywhere in japan is tight :)
