“ Food tastes amazing, choose how much you want to eat / pay. I don't speak Japanese and the staff were very friendly and assisted me in ordering and paying. Great service and great food, what more can you ask for ”
“ Great restaurant for simple Japanese bbq experience. There's place for groups but also 2-4 persons. The food was OK you can select whatever you want to fry or order a combination platter. The service is quick and the beverages are cold. Only downside is that the English menu is quite simple, I see the locals offer different food that's definitely not on the menu like nigiri sushi. Prices are good. ”
“ Amazing Japanese bbq place, very accommodating to tourists as well. We were three people and shared a Drago special meat platter (¥8000), which was more then enough meat. With some vegetables to grill and salad, this was a perfect meal (and the most vegetables we’ve had in Japan)! ”
“ The meat was thick and tasty. Friendly and casual service. It is run by a former sumo wrestler Takatoriki. If you like sumo you will enjoy the ambience. ”
“ It may look like your average neighborhood “yakiniku-ya” (bbq joint), but Dorago is anything but! You will be taunted by the aroma of yakiniku from a distance. Do not disappoint your rumbling tummy to pass by this restaurant. As soon as you get in, their charming staff greets you. If you are lucky the Sumo-SAN will himself be there to welcome you to his restaurant. Their decor may not look classy, but the meat they serve are one of the best I had. Do not forget to try their salads, yummy! Always start with the greens before you go red. Please note prices are comparable to high end restaurant because their meat quality is the best. Note: Dinner can get noisy (lots of fun + beer = lots of laughs) and unfortunately smoking is allowed inside but I haven’t felt probably because space between tables and most of the smoke near me is from the grilled meat! Highly recommended! ”
“ Quality meat, everything is made in house including their salad, kimchi, etc. Staff are friendly & overall great time there - worth the visit! ”
“ Great quality meat, that you can grill yourself. Amazing sauce on the side. The red meats are out of this world. You can order via a QR code, but there can be issues with a language barrier with the staff. ”
“ Fun and yummy, kind of pricey but I guess the meat quality is good ”
