It seems very redundant to talk about all the items at Iroha, as everyone has pretty much ordered and described the same food. Therefore instead of a detailed food review, I will give you a short note on the highlights, and the pictures speak a thousand words.I believed that salt is the ultimate flavor enhancer for grilled meat, particularly when the shoyu at Iroha sucks.

I believed that salt is the ultimate flavor enhancer for grilled meat, particularly when the shoyu at Iroha sucks. Therefore I brought my own flavored salt and experimented them. The most well-received salt was, surprisingly, none of the Japanese salt but Black Salt (Kala Namak) from India!
(From L to R): Black Salt (Kala Namak) from India, Ume Shio (Plum Salt), Yuzu Shio (Citron Salt), Wasabi no Oshio (Wasabi Salt), Kare Shio (Curry Salt), Sakura no Oshio (Cherry Blossom Salt)
Meat (Platter):
特上盛り合わせ Premium Assorted Meat ($450)
和牛タン塩 Salted wagyu tongue 盐烧和牛牛舌
- This has no place when compared to the和牛厚切り特选タン塩 (Thick Sliced Wagyu Tongue ) below. Average
厚切上ハラミ塩 Thick Sliced Prime Salted Outside Skirt 厚切胸外膜肉 - OK
さいころサーロイン塩 Diced Sirloin Steak 盐烧(方切)西冷 - This one is great with its thick texture and marbling. Encored as A la carte
特选 リブロース Selected Ribeye Beef 特选肉眼 - OK
特选 ロースSelected Roast Sauce 特算牛里脊肉 - OK
Meat (a la carte):
和牛厚切り特选タン塩 Selected Thick Sliced Wagyu Tongue 特选厚切和牛牛舌 $200 x 3
- Clearly best of the night and we kept re-ordering it despite its high price! I tried premium Black Angus Wagyu Beef tongue before and that was actually better with a more intense beefy flavor. But this is still highly succulent with gyutan fatty oil burst in your mouth.
We ordered a total of 3 plates! To me if you don’t order this you may as well don’t come to Iroha
日本产特选和牛さいころサーロイン塩 Diced Sirloin Steak 特选和牛厚切西冷 $280
- Mentioned above. Thick cut with juicy fatty meat and noticeable beefy flavor.
厚切上ハラミ 塩 Thick Sliced Prime Salted Outside Skirt 厚切胸外膜肉 $150 - Fine but not special compared to the above 2 times
豚トロ焼き (塩) Grilled Pork Neck (Salt) 塩烧猪颈肉 $70 – standard as what you expected from grilled pork neck. No surprise.
豚ロース Pork Roast 猪里脊肉 $80 – fairly ordinary. Not need to try it here.
Miscellaneous:
All quite standard in terms of flavors and what you expect if you were to get them in other izakaya. We ordered them mainly to add a little varieties and to have snacks to go with our shochu.
ホタルイカ冲渍け Marinated Baby Hotaru Squid 萤光鱿鱼盐辛 $60
チャンジャ Preserved Salty Fish Guts 盐渍鱼肠 $40
海鲜チジミ Seafood Korean Pancake 海鲜薄饼 $100
ヒモチグ Ox Intestine Hotpot 牛小肠窝 $100 - This is quite different from the intestine hotpot I had at博多一丁目 as the fatty tissues are completely removed from the small intestines. They were much softer, basically losing all textures. The broth and vegetables are more flavorful than the intestines.
さつま扬げ Fried Fish Cake 炸鱼饼 $80
Drinks:
富乃宝山 (芋焼酎) Tomino Houzan (Potato) $320
いいちこ スーパー (麦) Iichiko SUper (Wheat) $360
We got a VIP card with 15% off. Without discount the price should come out as around $500 per head.
