Restaurant Details

Thanks to its association with luxury, wagyu beef may be the first thing most people make a beeline for when they eat yakiniku, but true yakiniku fans know that horumon — beef offal — is the way to go.

The very existence of the horumonyaki restaurant, a restaurant specializing entirely in grilled offal, is proof of its popularity among Japanese people. And among horumonyaki restaurants, Koei is possibly one of the most famous, having several outlets spread across Tokyo.

Koei’s Shokuan-dori store is just a few blocks west from the original store (the “honten”), but is somehow even more packed than the original, with crowds drawn in by the noisy chatter and laughter emanating from within, the inviting warmth of the lanterns lined up above the restaurant’s entrance, and of course — the irresistible, mouth-watering smell of beef organs slowly charring on the grills scattered throughout the restaurant. Many of these guests come late and stay even later, thanks to the 6am closing time.

Of course, it doesn’t hurt that the menu at Koei is astoundingly cheap. The basic course menu starts at under ¥1,500 for a 5-item spread. Even with a drink or two, it’s a good way to enjoy a good grilling session with friends or loved ones.
