I genuinely do not know what we got because i let my friend's parents order for me. but it was good. i liked the seaweed soup and the fried rice but the crispy part of the fried rice was not it. idk it was just my opinion. the beef was really good, the sausage was eh but that's because i hate every single sausage if it's not chinese sausage. and then the chicken was flavorful and juicy. i liked this place but i don't feel like the 2 hour wait is worth it. 3.5 stars rounded up.

The place is nice, small and therefore the wait time is long. I thought the food quality was good but pricey when compared to AYCE out there with the same quality - for the dinner we had we overpaid as I think there are better valued places there - to wait 1 hour for a table and pay more wasn't what I was looking for - the service was good! I won't c one back...but mainly due to costs! $200 for a family of 3 is not worth it...

Came here at 5:02pm on a Saturday (they open at 5) and the whole restaurant was full already, with 12 other people on the waitlist already. We waited about an hour for a table. The quality of the meat here is really good. Service is really good too. I was also surprised that their noodle dishes were delicious. We tried the spicy cold noodles and udon. Be sure to add the lettuce wrap to eat with your meat. The miso paste that comes with it is sooo good!

My partner and I came here for a double date and it was such a cute place for it! We made reservations in advance, which I recommend as it was pretty packed when we went! We ordered their top 3 meets (I believe it was the salted tongue, marbled short rib, and prime outside skirt). Our favorite was the marbled short rib, we ordered several of these!!! The meat melted in our mouths and was so good. We also ordered cold noodles on the side with short rib soup! The short rib soup was so tasty. Loved our experience here. They served us complimentary tea at the end of our meal.

Came in on a Saturday evening, and only waited 10 minutes for a table. We LOVED the sausage and short rib. We reordered both of them. We also had rib eye and marbled short rib. I'd come back for the sausage and short rib alone! They were fantastic. Service was nice and friendly and we were given complimentary green tea at the end of our meal. We'll definitely be back.

I came here today with my friends , all 3 of us were at our table ordering our overpriced food . The smallest you're going to spend is $20 on a plate that is very minimal , it left me and my friends starving . After seeing all the other servers rush to satisfy everyone else that they favor over us. A very favoritism place towards certain customers . We then asked to get the bill but it took us over 20 minutes to get our bill , while others received it less than 5 minutes. Once we got the bill because we were not satisfied, it came out to $79.54 . And if you're going to pay with card there is going to be a 3.4% charge right off the bat. Since my friends and I didn't carry any cash for that amount we had no chance but to accept that. The lady was beyond pushy into us doing a tip , over 4 times , the minimal tip requirement is 18% which is what they don't deserve , and it didn't state on the pan flip that there was a forced tip charge . Only stating that it was a 3.4% increase in menu items only . nothing stating on a card charge or forced tip . After me and my friends payed our bill , without the tip because we did not feel satisfied. The guy literally followed me and my friends outside with these words " where is the tip , where is the money you guys are supposed to do " . After we stated that we are not tipping . The guy said " you are not welcomed here , We can't serve you anymore ". Beyond shocked and rude , never have i ever seen treatment like this just for tipping . Never come here , save your money , time and bellies . You will not be favorited if you don't tip and you're not one of their kind .

Service wasn't as great, seems they like to play favorites over there. I get the meats are high quality, but personally those prices are ridiculous. To each their own.
Be the first to ReplyIt's five stars, I'm sorry I gave you anything less, pls
It's five stars, I'm sorry I gave you anything less, pls forgive me bby :P Apparently I can't post this unless it has 85 characters so I might as well say that I wanted to change my previous review to give 5 stars bc it's very good quality meats and the service is always spot on. and I can't think of a better place than them.

I don't normally leave negative reviews even when the experience has been negative because I feel guilty about possibly impacting the income source for small business owners, but as this place is overwhelmed with customers trying to get a seat at the restaurant, I'm going to be honest. The quality and size of portions are so meagerly inadequate compared to the price this establishment charges for its menu items. The service is also very spotty. The waiters seem overwhelmed by the number of orders/number of tables they are responsible for. In other words, I felt ripped off at the end of the meal. What you get is not worth the price you pay.
Be the first to ReplyLove this place.
Always try making a reservation as the wait here can get quite long. Tsurhashi is just a tad bit cheaper but I have to give to Anjin for the quality. We came here actually with no reservation upon doors first opening but there was already a long list of reservations so we couldn't be seated at first until there was a no show so they seated us. We ordered prime boneless short rib, pork cheek, beef tongue, rib eye. Everything was delicious and no complaints on the food. Only thing I would say is don't let your server pour your beer! Our server didn't know how to pour beer and never tilted the cup so when she poured our beer, half of it was foam, which was disappointing.
Be the first to ReplyI got chased out asking why my tip was $3 short of 20%.
I would come spend that same amount at least 2 times a week! And they acknowledged saying i know your a regular but regulars usually tip more. Being a business owner myself i would be speechless knowing my employees were rejecting business due to a tip they expect!.If they don't make enough maybe they should talk to the boss or find another career! My order came out to $272 with only 2 people . And just 2 of the plates were the highest priced meats on the list . If i didn't order those meats my bill would of been $110 . I Dnt think its fair they are basing it off the total and then basically harassing people based on a tip .
Be the first to Replyprice: $$$ service: 4/5 - beef tongue (7/10) - beef
price: $$$ service: 4/5 - beef tongue (7/10) - beef carpaccio (8.5/10) - marbled prime boneless short rib (9/10) - prime boneless short rib (6/10) went here for a birthday and spent around $90 including tax and tip for 4 meats and a bowl of rice. overall very intimate and small. be prepared to wait 2-4hrs depending on the day and time, we were quoted around 1.5-2hrs but ended up getting called around 1hr due to canceled reservations. i enjoyed every meat beside the prime short rib which i thought was a bit tough. def good to try out!!
Be the first to ReplyIt took me so long to finally dine here since I've always
It took me so long to finally dine here since I've always heard about the long wait times. Finally made it here on a weekday 15 minutes before opening. Even though we were the first ones there, I didn't realize there was a sign up sheet as parties were getting seated before we did when they opened at 5pm. So lesson learned, make sure you sign in when you arrive. Once seated, they took orders and brought food out very quickly. The two of us ordered the #2 Ribeye ($17.95), #4 Marbled Prime Boneless Shortrib ($19.95), Pork Belly ($9.50), #30 Beef Carpaccio ($9.95), and #43 Seasoned Mix Vegetable and Ground Chicken on Rice in Hot Stone Pot with Soup ($12.00). To start off, the carpaccio is a must. It was so thinly-cut and easy to eat with the dressing on top that gave it some good flavor. The rice was delicious too where they split it into two portions for us before serving. Now onto the meats which were all delicious in their own ways. The ribeye was super buttery but the marinade in the shortrib made it so good that you didn't need any sauce --both great in its own ways, wish they could be combined. The pork belly wasn't anything special though, not bad nor good. I'd say stick to the beef options here. The food is delicious, but definitely on the pricey end. It's a nice spot for Japanese BBQ for a special occasion though. Definitely come early to avoid the wait times.

My family dined at Anjin for my brother's birthday and we enjoyed it. The service was great as the staff came by frequently to check on us and ask if we needed anything else. Sitting inside the restaurant also was comfortable and pleasant. I wished the short rib soup had a little more flavor but it grew on me the more I ate it and it felt nice to eat on a cold day. We definitely enjoyed the #4, #8, wagyu, and Kobe meats, which were high quality. The homemade kimchi and kimchi cucumbers were also great. At the end, the staff came out with a complimentary dessert and sang happy birthday for my brother, which was fun. Would recommend!

The line is always long,they will charge you higher price if you pay credit cards and one of the manager the Japanese guy is giving us rude service no smile only ask for tips
Be the first to ReplyThe wait times are the only reason I'm -1 from this review.
It's a really small restaurant but it does not affect my opinion on the food. Every single dish that came out was absolutely delicious. The crispy rice bowl was crunchy and packed with veggies. The kimchi cold noodles were nicely cold and I loved the crunch cucumbers. The service here is alright. Nothing special. I don't remember what meats we got but the one that stood out to me the most was the beef tongue which was a nice chewy texture, especially dipped in the lemon juice. It's a bit pricey but they know the cost of their meats. I wouldn't come back on a busy weekend though

Was here for a friends bday last night during pretty heavy downpour. A group came a bit earlier as we were told that the wait would be notoriously long, so we anticipated to stop by a local coffee shop to pass the time. To our surprise, within 5-10 mins from the restaurant we were told our seats were ready, and off to the races we went. Boasting A5 Wagyu and lots of other marbled/assorted meats, we started off our order with the beef carpaccio which was sliced incredibly thin and had a great hint of sweetness from the mayo. We proceeded to also order the sliced short rib, beef tongue, beef tartare, pork belly and some veggies which were great wrapped with all the meats and grilled. I especially enjoyed the two selections of dipping sauce, one being a light/sweet soy sauce and the other, a miso based garlic soy sauce that was my go-to of the night. Although I couldn't get a photo in time, the A5 was incredible that we ordered it multiple times.. totally worth it for a night like this! The night ended with a surprise happy birthday celebration for my friend's 30th and even the nice almond tofu and red bean vanilla ice cream desserts that we shared were pleasant and not terribly too sweet. Shout out to the wait staff who were the stars of the night. Not once did I have to ask for a refill of my hot tea since it was being filled up every time another meat plate was dropped off. This was 100% worth the hype and I look forward to bringing my wife next time!
Be the first to ReplyGreat service.
Small but cozy and the staff are great. Marbled short rib is my favorite
Be the first to ReplyCame w my boyfriend right at opening (5pm) and the waitlist
Came w my boyfriend right at opening (5pm) and the waitlist was longgg (about 7 parties ahead of us) but the hostess was so nice, since the other parties were either not there or reserved, he let us sit down if we could be done within 1 1/2hrs. Heckkk yea we can :9 Love this place bc of the great quality meats!! A must order for me is the marinated raw beef with egg yolk :3 we got sake and beer and they poured it for us which we appreciate but they did spill a little so we told them well pour it ourselves when we ordered another beer. The price went up a bit but that's not a problem bc they work super hard. And a complimentary hot tea to end the meal is nice! They gave us a time frame but never made us feel rushed at all, and we did finish within an hour ;)
Be the first to ReplyThe price went up since last time I went.
Quality is still amazing and service is ok. Go before opening time to put your name down. Went for a bday and the total cost was 400

Sorry to say the quality of meat has gone downhill and price has skyrocketed. Bowl of white rice is $3! Still great service but will not be my go-to option anymore.
Be the first to ReplyYou will wait 2 hours minimum no matter what.
.. even if you have reservations. Ventilation is not as good for a bbq place so just be prepared to smell like smoke. We tried everything on the menu one by one. House salad comes with seaweed with ponzu sauce, it's big enough to share for 4+ people. The steak tartar was fresh but too salty for me, trio kimchi side dish lacked in flavor. I would come back here just for the freshness of the meat.
Be the first to ReplyThe Yelp restaurant tips that recommend putting your name
The Yelp restaurant tips that recommend putting your name on the waitlist at 4pm, for their 5pm opening time were NOT joking. I arrived at the restaurant around 4:08pm on Sunday and I was already the 10th or 11th party on their waitlist. When they opened at 5pm, my party was thankfully seated in the first wave!The grill in the table is on the smaller side, but the cuts of meat are on the thinner side so it doesn't take too long for the protein to cook. My personal favorites were the beef tongue, pork cheek, and pork belly which were all salted. We also got the marbled prime boneless short rib, rib eye, prime outer skirt, and vegetable mix plate. These were all incredibly tender and marinated with a soy sauce base. Each order of protein comes with a random vegetable you can grill (onion, corn, bell pepper, etc.) so ordering the vegetable mix plate may not be necessary for your party. Each order is not excessively large, so you can try a lot of different cuts or order multiple orders of the same cut. For sides, we got the seaweed cucumber salad and egg soup. The salad is light, refreshing and on the large side as we were able to share it among a group of 4. The egg soup is a mild, clear broth. This was my first time dining here and I see why everyone raves so much about the quality of the meat here! I really enjoyed the food and my experience. Sometimes at bbq restaurants, it can be difficult to get the servers' attention but the service here was super quick to put in and bring our orders. They were also readily available when asking for grill changes. I'm embarrassed to say that I did not take very many pictures of this meal because I was starving, but I hope this review can make up for it!

The wait here is so long, make sure to come an hour in advance to put your name down on the waiting list. Service is fast and friendly. Food is kinda expensive but meat is good quality. Nice reward for once in a while. Will def be back.
