About this place
Thick-cut premium salted tongue and skirt steak are natural choices to start with at Yatchan. Diners have described the tongue as tender despite its thickness, with a fragrant sear and a soft, plump centre. Served with lemon, the premium salted tongue lets those flavours speak for themselves. Premium skirt steak can be ordered with sauce or wasabi soy sauce. Try the sauce for a savoury pairing with rice, or switch to wasabi soy sauce with loin or skirt steak for a different flavour.
The grill menu also includes premium tripe, premium akasen, tecchan and mixed offal, with some cuts available with either sauce or salt. One diner who ordered the mixed offal with sauce noted its pronounced garlic flavour. To vary a meal built around grilled meat, add a kimchi platter, senmai sashimi or kokoro sashimi, made with heart.
For a final dish, consider the house curry rice porridge, a distinctive option on the menu. One report describes a light curry broth with a taste of meat stock. It offers a different finish from curry rice after yakiniku. Rice and beef tongue stew are also available, whether you want rice alongside the grilled meat or a more substantial final course.
In Higashinodamachi, Kyobashi, the restaurant has been described in reviews as a small place with mostly counter seating. Some diners mention eating yakiniku alone. Drinks include draft beer, highballs and makgeolli. Dinner reservations are available, and the listing recommends booking.
