Located in the heart of Koto City, Yamariki is an authentic Izakaya restaurant that has quickly gained a reputation for its exquisite offerings. This charming establishment, known for its cozy atmosphere and high-quality dishes, specializes in motsu nikomi (beef stew), which many diners, including Linn Yadanar Tun and Hiro, rave about. The robust flavors and tender meat make it a must-try!

The menu doesn't stop there; fresh sashimi and a delightful assortment of Kushi Yaki (BBQ pork skewers) add to the culinary experience. Carol Cui noted the availability of an English menu and friendly staff, enhancing accessibility for international diners. However, be warned: this popular spot fills up quickly, and reservations are highly recommended.

In tandem with exceptional food, the inviting stone tanuki decoration enhances the restaurant's appeal. Prepare to indulge in a memorable Japanese dining experience at Yamariki, where every dish speaks flavors of authenticity.

I can't express how delicious their 煮込み。(motsu nikomi- Beef stew) and grilled. High quality meat products! This is a small restaurant, so better to book in advance. I will definitely go there again.

Great Japanese dining restaurant. Nikomi (煮込み) is perfect!! Each piece is big where you only see in proper restaurants. Sashimi is fresh and the variety of Kushi Yaki (BBQ pork skewers) is delicious too. Reservation is essential. By the way, all seats are smoking seats.

This place has an English menu and multiple of their staff spoke good English! The space is tight and we got here when they first opened. Otherwise, it would've been a wait. Their special stew tasted so good, so did their yakitoris! The customer next to us ordered sashimi which looked good too. The place is on the second floor and we were glad that we checked it out.

森下駅A4出口出て徒歩1分のところにあるもつ焼きの名店。 もつ煮込みが有名なお店でもあります。 こちらが本館で、すぐ近くに新館もある。 予約はできなくて行って満席なら並ぶスタイル。電話したらその時空きがあるかだけは教えてくれます。 平日の19時半に行って満席だったため、新館ならすぐ入れるよとのことで一旦新館に行きましたがその後またこちらのお店に戻ってきました。 メニューとか全く同じなので店員さんは不審者を見るような目で我々を眺めていましたが光栄です。 新館でも食べた煮込みをまた食べた。こちらも変わらず美味しいです。まぁこっちが本館なんやけど。 あとはだし巻き卵、パテ、メンチカツ、鯵のなめろう、焼きとん各種レバー軟骨コブクロタンなどいただきました。 やきとんは割とすぐ売り切れるのでいろいろ食べたい場合は早めに行った方がいいです。 でも平日遅めの時間ならすっと入れるし煮込みや洋風の料理もいろいろ楽しめる。 メンチカツはカレー風味のソースで美味しかったです。 新館と本館のはしごをする意味は特に見出せなかったけどやってみてください。
