My family and I recently had the pleasure of dining at Yakiniku Toraji located on the 3rd floor of Ikspiari Mall, and I must say it was an exceptional culinary experience although the place is like Genki Sushi. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted warmly by the attentive staff, setting the tone for a memorable evening ahead.
The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the Wagyu beef, which was nothing short of extraordinary. Every bite was like a melt-in-your-mouth sensation, as the Wagyu was incredibly fulfilling and tender, resembling the texture of delicate jelly. Each plate was skillfully presented, and the marbling on the Wagyu showcased the top-notch quality of the meat.
The interactive grilling experience added a layer of excitement to our meal. We were provided with a selection of seasonings and sauces to complement the rich flavors of the meat, making every bite a unique and delightful adventure. The staff was also attentive and offered guidance on grilling times and techniques to ensure we enjoyed the meat to its fullest potential.
The menu at Yakiniku Toraji is diverse, offering a variety of cuts and dishes to suit everyone's preferences. Aside from the remarkable Wagyu, we also savored other delectable items like fresh vegetables, succulent seafood, and traditional Japanese side dishes. The flavors were well-balanced and beautifully enhanced by the expertly crafted marinades.
As for the ambiance, the restaurant had a cozy and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing family dinner. The decor was tasteful, with a mix of modern touches and traditional elements that reflected the essence of authentic Japanese dining.
While the prices may be on the higher side, the quality of the food and overall experience more than justified it. The memories we created at Yakiniku Toraji will undoubtedly stay with us for a long time.
In conclusion, if you're a fan of Wagyu beef and are looking for an extraordinary yakiniku dining experience, Yakiniku Toraji at Ikspiari Mall is a must-visit. The delectable Wagyu, attentive service, and inviting ambiance make it an ideal destination for a memorable family gathering or special occasion. We left the restaurant feeling satisfied, grateful, and eager to return to savor the exceptional flavors once again.

My first visit at this Japanese BBQ chain, the restaurant is located within the Ikspiari shopping complex.
I ordered the Kuroge wagu jo karubi bento for take out, and to sum it up simply, it was one of the best yakiniku bentos I have ever had. The meat was very tender and had a nice grilled flavor that together with the included yakiniku sauce made it very tasty. The portion itself was of good size, and if it is not enough for you, there is an option to order a larger portion of rice. There is also a little array of different sides included.
If you want to order ahead and come back for pick up at all later time, it is no problem. Since I ordered for take out I did not pay much attention to the restaurant itself, but the staff were very friendly and had a happy atmosphere about them.
I had the fortune to enjoy this bento at the top floor of the Tokyo DisneySea MiraCosta hotel with a great view of the park that might have added a little to the flavor and while it is a little on the pricier side I would definitely come back to this restaurant!
Keep in mind that this is my experience and your visit might be different.

Very decent yakiniku in the Tokyo Disney resort area. Pricing is reasonable too. Pretty good services. Order through a pad and dishes will be delivered to you directly via a belt. Great for kids.
The service was good. Staff were polite and I loved the conveyor belt ordering system. The interior is a bit dated though; seats were ripped and we were disappointed with the course menu we selected. There was too much veg and not enough meat, so we left feeling hungry. If we go in future, it might be better to order the items separately. The umeshu, calbi, noodles and prawns were tasty though.

I ordered a premier set with 4 kinds waygu set and an additional plate of 4 kinds waygu as we wanted to have more beef. But after serving the first plate. They told me they served both. Staff don’t really speak English and it is hard to explain. I left this terrible place after a bad meal and experience. Total waste of my time and money. Don’t bother trying not worth it.

This is a great place to get quick service for GRADE A bbq. Went here after Disney Sea and there was no wait (however made a reservation online using a quick google search for places to eat in the Ikspiari mall). Sat down ordered and within minutes, an automated tray is sent to your table to commence the feeding! I recommend the Kalbi and the high grade slices of meat followed with a bowl (s) of rice accompanied eith freshly marinated side dishes. Wash it all down with spicy soup, and call it a night!
Very interesting place. If you are in Ikspiari area and in mood for grilling your own meat cuts definitely worth visitng. Like any other restaurants in Tokyo, veggie choices are limited but ask the server (by hitting call server button on the Android tablet) and they made effort to make veggie stuff. The coolest part was how the food and drinks get delivered on the platform that speeds up from the kitchen without spilling the drinks and stops at exactly the right table and open the plastic glass doors.
Meats and pork selection is top shelf. Good selection of hot and cold soba. The grill provided consistent flame for cooking. I especially like the automatic iPad ordering and food delivery by conveyor system, specific to your table. Everything came within 2-3min. Very handy if you have difficulty with Japanese.
