A Hidden Gem in a Quiet Neighborhood: “Tohsenbo”
“Tohsenbo” is a well-known local favorite among Niitsu’s foodies. Tucked away in a quiet residential area, this small yakiniku restaurant radiates a nostalgic charm. While the surrounding area is dimly lit, the warm glow from the restaurant makes it stand out, attracting customers like a beacon.
This place was selected as a Tabelog Hyakumeiten (Top 100 Yakiniku Restaurants) until 2023, which speaks volumes about its quality. It’s a must-visit for any meat lover! Though reservations aren’t required, I recommend booking at least a week in advance to secure a spot. The restaurant is always bustling with locals enjoying top-tier yakiniku in a lively, welcoming atmosphere.
Steak-like Thickness! Juicy & Flavorful Yakiniku
What makes “Tohsenbo” special? **The insanely thick cuts of meat!** The moment the well-marbled karubi (short rib) and harami (skirt steak) hit the grill, you know you’re in for something amazing. The meat slowly sizzles, releasing a mouthwatering aroma that fills the air.
One of the best highlights was the Negi-shio Harami (Skirt Steak with Green Onion Salt). Instead of mixing the green onions beforehand, they’re added after grilling. This small touch enhances the flavor, making each bite even more delicious. The contrast between the smoky, juicy beef and the freshness of the onions? Absolutely next-level✨.
The restaurant’s signature house-made sauce is another game-changer. Unlike many yakiniku sauces that are overly sweet, this one has a rich depth of flavor without overpowering the natural umami of the meat. You’ll want to dip every single piece!
High Quality + Huge Portions = Amazing Value
Despite serving premium-grade beef, the prices at Tohsenbo remain incredibly reasonable. Expect to pay around ¥4,000–¥8,000 per person, which is insane for this level of quality and portion size.
The portions are also generous—each thick-cut piece of meat is substantial, making sure you leave fully satisfied. If you’re looking for a high-quality yet budget-friendly yakiniku experience, this is the spot!
Surprisingly Light & Refreshing Cold Noodles
For the perfect finishing touch, you need to try Tohsenbo’s Cold Noodles (Reimen). Unlike traditional cold noodles, which are usually thick and chewy, their version features thin, almost somen-like noodles.
This was unexpected but delightful! The ultra-thin noodles make for an amazingly smooth texture, and they absorb the slightly tangy, umami-packed broth beautifully. After a rich yakiniku meal, this refreshing dish is the perfect way to cleanse your palate and end the night on a high note.
✅ Final Verdict: A Must-Visit for Meat Lovers!
If you’re a fan of thick, juicy cuts of meat and love a high-quality yakiniku experience without breaking the bank, “Tohsenbo” is a must-visit. With its top-tier meat, delicious house-made sauce, cozy atmosphere, and reasonable prices, it’s no surprise that this place is a local favorite.
⚠ Pro tip: Make a reservation if you don’t want to miss out! The seats fill up fast. Once you take your first bite, you’ll understand why this hidden gem is so popular among Niitsu locals✨.

住宅街にひっそり佇む実力派焼肉店「通せんぼ」
新潟・新津エリアで焼肉好きの間で密かに話題になっている「通せんぼ」。住宅街の中にありながら、その名の通り「ここは知る人ぞ知る名店！」といわんばかりの存在感を放っています。外観はレトロな佇まいで、周囲が暗くてもお店だけがぽっと灯る光景が印象的。
2023年まで食べログ百名店に選ばれており、地元の常連客を中心に賑わう雰囲気が特徴です✨。
予約は必須ではないですが、人気店ゆえ1週間前に予約を入れておくと確実。店内に入るとアットホームな雰囲気で、家族連れや仕事帰りのサラリーマンたちが和気あいあいと焼肉を楽しんでいました。
まるでステーキ！厚切り肉の旨みがダイレクトに伝わる
「通せんぼ」の最大の魅力は、圧倒的な肉のクオリティ。特に目を引くのが、ステーキのような分厚さのカルビとハラミ！ 適度な霜降りが入ったお肉がジュワッと焼ける様子は、見ているだけで食欲をそそります…。
味付けも絶妙で、しっかりと染み込んだ秘伝のタレが肉の旨みを最大限に引き出してくれます。このタレ、甘さ控えめでコクがあり、最後まで飽きずに楽しめるのがポイント！
個人的に感動したのは「ネギ塩ハラミ」✨。ネギはあらかじめ和えられているタイプではなく、あと乗せスタイル。これがまた良い！ 焼いたハラミにネギをたっぷりのせて食べると、香ばしさとさっぱり感が絶妙にマッチし、一口ごとに幸福感が広がります。
ボリューム満点！コスパ最強の焼肉体験
このクオリティの焼肉が、意外にもリーズナブル。厚切りの肉がしっかり楽しめて、一人当たり4,000〜8,000円ほどで収まるのは驚き✨。肉のクオリティだけでなく、ボリューム感も申し分なし！ これだけの満足度でこの価格帯なら、コスパ最強と言っても過言ではありません。
また、お店の雰囲気も気取らず楽しめる感じで、肩肘張らずに美味しい焼肉を堪能できるのも魅力のひとつ。近所の人たちが多く訪れるためか、店内は程よい賑やかさがあり、ワイワイ楽しく食事を楽しめます。
〆には冷麺！驚くほど細い麺がスルスル入る
焼肉の締めといえば冷麺！ ここ「通せんぼ」の冷麺は、なんとそうめんのような極細麺が特徴✨。冷麺といえば太めの弾力のある麺を想像しがちですが、この細麺がまた新感覚！
ツルツルと喉越しがよく、あっさりしたスープとも相性抜群。焼肉でしっかり脂を楽しんだ後に、この軽やかな冷麺をすすると、胃がリフレッシュされる感じがして、最後まで大満足。
✅ まとめ：肉好きなら一度は行くべき！予約推奨の名店
新津で美味しい焼肉を探しているなら、「通せんぼ」は間違いなし！ 分厚いお肉と絶妙な味付け、コスパの良さ、そして地元の人たちに愛されるアットホームな雰囲気が魅力。
人気店なので予約推奨ですが、ぜひ訪れてみてほしい一軒。がっつり美味しい肉を食べたい人には最高の焼肉体験が待っています✨。
