Yoroniku – Yakiniku meets Japanese modern cuisine

Yoroniku – よろにく

The owner chef Mr. Vanne of this restaurant has unique career, he has started his career as a DJ, and then he come up with a idea to start yakiniku restaurant as demand on club boom in Tokyo was subsiding.

As he didn’t have any food industry experience, he jump into a yakiniku restaurant; Yakiniku Jumbo, and establish his own style as yakiniku course style, and the meats are grilled by staffs. Currently many of modern yakiniku restaurant serves as a course, but this yoroniku is one of founders of this style yakiniku.

The meat is provided by Hiyama which is a famous butchery founded in 1912 in Ningyo-cho Tokyo. So not only there is no doubt for quality of meat but also you can enjoy how they enhance the potential of yakinku with their ideas.

Also there is a bar space in the restaurant so you can enjoy drinking after the course or you may wait here before the course.
