Itarō - Shinjuku City

Love this place. Eaten here at least 10 times when visiting Tokyo. Love the K-Pop videos and music and their queso pork, chicken, beef BBQ. They serve it with tortilla, omelet and lettuce wraps. So good!

Samgyopsal is a hit and miss, sometimes d pork smells while sometimes its great. In terms of value, its a good place to go for drinking

STAY AWAY- This place fell off. Food quality is way down from the original and service is rude. They simply don’t care about this restaurant anymore. Easy pass for the dozens of other places in Ktown that have the same food. I’ve gone here for 8 years, but I’m going to stop.

TLDR: Ripped off. Try any of the other Korean places around it. We went to Itaro for an all-you-can-drink package for 2000 Yen, and I feel as though we got ripped off. Coming from Australia, we expected a little language barrier, so we confirmed with the service person what the package included: we were told it was all you can drink for 2000 Yen and that it included everything on the drinks menu. We proceeded to drink beer and eat fried chicken, and ended up ordering two bottles of Asahi and a bottle of Soju (a Korean Spirit). Fifteen minutes after we ordered these drinks we were approached by the wait staff (a different person this time) and told we would have to pay for them, as they weren't included. They admitted that it was their mistake, but that we still had to pay. I'm all for understanding a misunderstanding, but anywhere else I feel like they would have waived the price of the small amount of drinks and let us keep going and enjoying the night - and probably ordering more food. I feel shafted and it has left a bad taste in my mouth; dampened one of my few nights in Tokyo. I recommend ANY of the other Korean places on the same street - some of which we have tried, most of which offer all-you-can-drink packages, and none of which have ruined my night. So far as such to make me write a review for the first time ever. PLEASE DON'T GO HERE. Edit: the only reasons I gave it two stars and not one is that the fried chicken is not terrible and the drinks are not poison. Regards, Alexander.

Very good place to eat and drink. They have all you can eat/drink as well as à la carte items. The main point is that a lot of the dishes are using cheese with Korean cuisine (which I recommend you to try). The down point is that the place is a little bit pricey.

The price is so reasonable for all you can eat and drink. It just take about $40/pax. The meat is thicker than others similar restaurants around shin-okubo. Satisfied! It's better you take a reservation in advance. The wait is so long, especially on the weekends.

The food was so yummy, they have great attention as well, super recommend!

The fried chicken is really delicious in this restaurant. Would definitely recommend this place any day of the week.
