Yakiniku Ginjiro Marunouchi
Low-key digs and high-end yakiniku — wagyu takes the spotlight at this under-the-railroad gem in the swanky Marunouchi district.
Restaurant Details
Beneath the elevated railway tracks in stylish Marunouchi lies this joint that elevates the yakiniku experience to exclusive heights. Here, tables are partitioned with fabric blinds for extra privacy, although it’s not hard to guess the predominant clientele coming during Friday nights: businessmen on expense-account dinners and young folks gathering for some good grills.
Yakiniku Ginjiro’s menu takes a variety of high-quality beef cuts. Items of kombu-marinated skirt steak and beef tongue (Rishiri kelp from Hokkaido for their delicate flavor profile) are familiar, while the appetizers are unapologetically Korean, like the homemade namul (seasoned vegetable side dishes) and kimchi.
Wagyu is a prized possession, and courses feature different parts of the animal: loin, oyster blade, kosankaku or kalbi (short ribs). The chef is particularly excited to show off the wagyu chateaubriand steak, although sushi variations of scallops, horse meat and sea urchin top the cake. The meats are grilled over tabel and a healthy bevy of Japanese sides (don't skip donko mushroom with butter and soy sauce) helps to cut through the protein.
Yakiniko Ginjiro Marunouchi’s most premium course featuring two types of wagyu. The meal opens up with selections of meat sushi: sea urchin, scallops, beef and horse meat and progresses with protein-packed courses like kombu-marinated beef tongue and skirt steak. The closing dish of cold noodles or homemade curry makes sure diners leave satisfied. ※ Beverage is not included in this course.

A slightly simpler yet equally luxurious option begins with the restaurant's signature shrimp avocado salad, followed by various cuts of wagyu beef: kalbi, loin, kosankaku (bottom section of the beef shoulder), and oyster blade. The culinary journey concludes with a satisfying wagyu beef sukiyaki served and rice balls, alongside a dessert of ice cream and warabi mochi.
