Ichimi Reirei Honten

Ichimi Reirei Honten is about a 1-minute walk from the Karasumori Exit of Shimbashi Station, and serves authentic Chinese cuisine along with Shaoxing wine and other Chinese liquors. Their gyoza (dumplings) and xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) are especially popular.

The gyoza (Japanese dumplings) are appealing for their wide lineup, from classics to creative variations. They feature Biton (beautiful pork) from the Fuji Kogen (Fuji Highlands) and plenty of more than 30 kinds of yakuzen (medicinal herbs).

They use no preservatives or additives at all, so you can enjoy them with peace of mind. The house made wrappers are said to have an irresistibly smooth texture on the tongue.

Along with the gyoza, you will definitely want to try the xiaolongbao as well. Inside the thin wrapper, it seems to hold tasty meat juices.

There are many kinds, including kani xiaolongbao (crab soup dumplings) and fukahire xiaolongbao (shark fin soup dumplings), so if you cannot decide, the assortment menu is recommended.

六本木一丁目玉おやじ

After ordering a set of 10 pan-fried gyoza dumplings and xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), you can sip beer while snacking on fried eggplant and Honeycomb tripe dressed with pakuchi (cilantro). The gyoza come with a crispy feathered skirt that really whets the appetite. The harmony of the chewy wrapper and juicy filling makes for a blissful time. After beer, you'll naturally start craving Shaoxing wine.

Beef Tongue and Crispy Gyoza Himawari

About a 3-minute walk from Shimbashi Station, Gyutan to Crispy Gyoza Himawari is a popular spot known for its bite-size crispy gyoza and thick-cut Beef Tongue dishes.

The interior is bright and easy to drop into, with counter seats that are perfect for solo diners and Banquet seating with zashiki-isu (chairs in tatami seating) for up to 24 people.

The "crispy gyoza" made with 0.1 mm-thick wrappers are Homemade after you order, and are said to have such a light texture that you can keep eating them endlessly.

Inside the crisp wrapper is a filling made with Domestic vegetables and Domestic lard, and with one bite, the savory juices are said to burst out.

The "Thick Cut Grilled Beef Tongue," prepared with low temperature cooking, is also a must order dish when you visit this restaurant. They use only the tender part close to the base of the tongue.

The surface is nicely browned, and each bite is said to release juicy meat juices. The beautiful cross section of the meat is striking.

The selling point of the "Crispy Gyoza." They are incredibly particular about the amazingly thin wrapper, just 0.5mm thick, and even go so far as to wrap each one only after an order comes in. Just like the name suggests, they were super crispy and so light that you could keep eating them like a snack. Since they are not heavy, they work great either alongside the main Beef Tongue or as a quick appetizer.

・Thick Cut Grilled Beef Tongue
You can enjoy tan naka, tan moto, and especially the very tender section called shin-tan (core of the tongue). Even though it is cut quite thick, it still keeps the nice bite that is unique to tongue while staying very tender both outside and in. The more you chew, the more the juices spread, filling your mouth with the rich flavor of the meat.

Toranomon Pairon

Toranomon Pailon is a popular restaurant where you can enjoy gyoza (Japanese dumplings) made with wrappers learned from a Taiwanese chef and paired with creative fillings.

It is located inside Toranomon Hills Business Tower, directly connected to Toranomon Hills Station and Toranomon Station, and also within walking distance of Shimbashi Station. The interior is designed in the image of an authentic Taiwanese izakaya (Japanese-style pub).

The gyoza (Japanese dumplings) here are bite-sized and easy to eat, with a chewy special wrapper as one of their key features. People also like that you can choose from three cooking methods: pan-fried, boiled, or steamed.

Their standout signature item, Hakuryu Gyoza, is said to be a juicy dish that lets the good flavor of the pork come through straight.

They also offer a full lineup of gyoza, including Seiryu Gyoza (Blue Dragon Gyoza) made with nira (garlic chives) and Kokuryu Gyoza (Black Dragon Gyoza) with a punch of garlic.

For those who want something light, the celery gyoza seems to be a good choice, while spicy food fans may want to try Red Dragon.

らーめんまん1号

This popular restaurant stays quite busy both at lunch and at night. I ordered two kinds of their popular gyoza (pan-fried dumplings). The bottoms were crisp, and the inside was nice and juicy. The balance of the filling was just outstanding!! They were simple, but the level of finish was high, the kind that makes you say "So good..." without even thinking. Lol. It has an easygoing atmosphere, so even if you just mean to stop by for a quick drink, you may end up ordering more gyoza and staying a while.

Source:らーめんまん1号's review

The specialty Pairon gyoza (dumplings) had a plump, rounded look, with a thick, chewy wrapper packed with piping hot meat filling. It was fun to season them to your taste with the black vinegar, Chinese soy sauce, and chili oil on the table as you ate. The menu also has a wide range of items, including Taiwan gyoza and tenshin (dim sum), so it felt like a good place for having a few drinks while snacking lightly.

Gyozaya Shimbashi Ten

Gyozaya Shimbashi Ten is a gyoza restaurant located in the basement of New Shimbashi Building, a 1-minute walk from Shimbashi Station. It is popular for its wide variety of gyoza, including yaki-gyoza (pan-fried dumplings).

Inside, there are counter seats where you can watch the gyoza being cooked, as well as table seating, and the atmosphere is said to make it easy to drop in for a quick meal.

The carefully made gyoza, prepared with fresh ingredients, are Homemade in-house from the wrappers up, with a filling packed tightly inside full of great flavor.

The signature item, in particular, is the pan-fried gyoza menu. The crispy grilled wrappers come with lacy wings that spread out in a crackly sheet, giving them an irresistible savory aroma.

They offer not only pan-fried gyoza (dumplings), but also deep-fried gyoza and boiled gyoza. The boiled gyoza seems to let you enjoy the chewy texture of the wrappers even more than the pan-fried kind.

Their boiled gyoza menu includes options made with a wide range of ingredients, including meat, seafood, and vegetables, such as "Vegetable Packed Mizugyoza (boiled dumplings)" and "Whole Shrimp Gyoza".

I ordered the gomoku yaki gyoza (pan-fried dumplings with mixed fillings). Even without any dipping sauce, the flavor was strong enough, and the filling itself was well seasoned. The wrapper was not too thick, and the browned side had a nice toasty aroma. I felt these were more the kind of gyoza that work well as a snack with drinks than the dumplings you usually get at a Japanese-Chinese food spot. They also have many kinds of gyoza, which makes me want to try a different one next time.

The pan-fried gyoza have crisp lacy wings and a reliably good taste. The boiled gyoza have pleasantly chewy wrappers, and these were tasty too. Besides the gyoza, there are also a few light small plates, all with approachable flavors and easy to enjoy. I think it is just right as a place to enjoy conversation over drinks.

Shimbashi Rengetsu

Shimbashi Rengestu, about a 2-minute walk from the Karasumori Exit of Shimbashi Station, is a restaurant where you can enjoy superb special Homemade gyoza (dumplings) and Chinese à la carte dishes.

Inside, a calm space away from the bustle of the city spreads out, with dim lighting and glowing neon creating a unique atmosphere.

Their popular signature item is the tokusei Homemade yaki-gyoza (special pan-fried dumplings), perfected through repeated trial and error. It also seems like a great match for drinks.

Inside the pleasantly chewy wrapper is a filling packed with flavor, made with fresh vegetables and ground meat minced that day.

One dish you should definitely order along with the pan-fried gyoza is the "Homemade lamb sui-gyoza (boiled dumplings)."

What makes them stand out is that they use lamb, but they have almost none of lamb's distinctive flavor, and they apparently pair perfectly with the smooth, slippery wrapper. The lightly scented pakuchi (cilantro) seems to leave a fresh finish.

グルメスター1993

First, the yaki-gyoza (pan-fried dumplings). The moment I took a bite, I was surprised by how juicy they were, with meat juices overflowing. The wrapper was pleasantly chewy with a fragrant browned surface, and the filling had a rich meaty flavor. Simple, but very well made, they were so good I felt like I could eat as many as I wanted. As expected from world champion gyoza.

Source:グルメスター1993's review

The boiled dumplings use lamb, giving them a rich, distinctive depth and umami, while pakuchi (cilantro) adds a nice accent that keeps the finish light. What stood out most was jiangbaoqiezi (flash-fried eggplant in savory sauce), with a melt-in-your-mouth texture that hardly seemed like eggplant and a rich seasoning that made it the best dish of the day. Not just the dumplings, but the a la carte dishes were also very well done, making it a highly satisfying meal.

らぶりーぼいす

This was my fourth visit, and the fried rice vermicelli was delicious, with plenty of plump shrimp, squid, and vegetables, seasoned with just the right amount of salt. I also wanted to try the shrimp boiled dumplings, so I ordered an extra dish. As expected, the filling of plump shrimp and flavorful ground pork was wrapped in chewy skin, making it rich in taste. I ate them while changing up the flavor with vinegar, chili oil, and other condiments.

Gyoza Oden Clay Pot Rice Ueno Yamamoto

"Gyoza Oden Donabe-gohan Ueno Yamamoto" is a small izakaya serving home-style dishes where you can enjoy food and drinks made with seasonal ingredients, and it is popular for its good gyoza, oden, and Clay Pot rice.

It is conveniently located, a 4-minute walk from JR Shinbashi Station and a 1-minute walk from Uchisaiwaicho Station. The interior, filled with the warmth of wood, is said to have a stylish and comfortable atmosphere.

The signature “nomeru gyoza (gyoza so good with drinks)” was created by the owner after eating gyoza across Kyushu, and it is said to be a house specialty that goes great with alcohol.

Packed with vegetables and easy to eat, it seems many people order another serving. There is also the “Aona Gyoza” made with lots of greens, available pan-fried, deep-fried, or as sui-gyoza (boiled dumplings), and it is recommended to order a few kinds of gyoza and compare them with everyone.

The oden (Japanese stew) eaten with natural dashi broth and salt, carrying on the flavors of a famous Shibuya restaurant, is also well reviewed.

Along with standard items such as daikon radish and eggs, they also offer a wide range of unusual creative oden. The secret broth gently soaks into each piece, making for a comforting taste.

Jyom-su

"Nomeru gyoza (gyoza so good with drinks)" does not mean soft, melty gyoza you can almost drink down, but gyoza that make your alcohol go down easy lol. As soon as I tried the gyoza, they were quite firm, or rather super crispy, exactly the kind of gyoza I really like! The oden (Japanese stew) came in a wide variety, and they kindly plated each serving on its own dish!

The atmosphere of the restaurant was very nice, and even though we had counter seats, we were very satisfied. It was lively but not too loud, so it was easy to talk. The service from the staff was also very polite and pleasant. The food was also very good, and the sashimi assortment was prepared with nice touches like nori tsukudani (seaweed simmered in soy sauce) and kombu kelp curing, which made me want to have it again. Also, the fresh wood ear mushroom in the oden was unusual, and I really liked its crisp texture.

Kounanshun

Konanshun, about a 3-minute walk from JR Shinbashi Station, is a restaurant where you can enjoy Chinese dishes such as Homemade gyoza (dumplings) along with famous Chinese liquors.

At lunchtime, they also offer a "Mapo Tofu set meal" that comes with annin dofu (apricot kernel tofu pudding) and salad.

アキ1969

What we ordered were gyoza (dumplings) and kaisen yakisoba (seafood fried noodles). Each gyoza was nice and big. The skin was crisp, and the filling was packed tightly inside, so they were very satisfying to eat. The yakisoba was also a large portion, about enough for two servings. It had plenty of seafood, and the piping hot sauce was delicious.

I mainly had the pan-fried gyoza, and what stood out was the thin wrapper packed well with filling inside. The sear was light, and they were easy to eat since they were not overly oily. The style of eating them with salt, lemon, or house special miso was interesting too, and it made it easy to appreciate the gyoza's own flavor. In particular, eating them with salt made the savory flavor of the filling stand out more clearly.

They offer both pan-fried and boiled gyoza (dumplings), and it seems they change both the filling and the wrapping style for each. This time, I ordered the pan-fried gyoza. The filling is simple, just pork and green onion, but they were incredibly good. The wrapping was also very carefully done. They were really nice gyoza, different from the gyoza you get at Japanese-Chinese food spots or homemade gyoza.

I enjoyed gyoza (dumplings) with five friends from a cross-industry networking group in a Private room for two hours. The wrappers were both crispy and chewy, and the filling was super juicy. The boiled gyoza with Sichuan spicy sauce was also incredibly good. I think they would hold up even in Utsunomiya. The kimchi was actually amazingly delicious, and I highly recommend it. It went great with beer♪

The meal centered on the otoshi (small appetizer served at the start) and gyoza (pan-fried dumplings). The gyoza had a well-seared bottom and were piping hot inside. What stood out was the way the meat juices came out the moment you bit into them. The portion was also more filling than I expected, so what I thought would be a light drink turned into a pretty satisfying meal.

The lively basement floor makes it easy to meet up. We filled the table with sashimi, Kara-age, grilled fish, and stir-fries, then shared bites and raised a toast. You can enjoy both Chinese food and izakaya fare here without any fuss, and before you know it, you end up staying a while. The food also comes out at a good pace, so it does not interrupt the flow of conversation. It was also nice to wind down with grilled fish and nimikomi (simmered dish) at the end. The lively atmosphere felt comfortable, and the staff moved quickly.

Gyoza Shokunin GYO Juice

Gyoza Shokunin GYOjiru, about a 2-minute walk from the Karasumori Exit of Shimbashi Station, is a restaurant that offers popular juicy gyoza (dumplings) and a wide range of izakaya dishes.

The interior has a homey atmosphere where you can casually stop by for a quick drink or meal. Another nice point is that most seats come with power outlets.

The gyoza use kurobuta (Berkshire pork) from Kagoshima Prefecture. The dumplings are large and satisfying, and they pair perfectly with a Kaku Highball.

The "Meaty and Juicy Suigyoza (boiled dumplings)" are popular for their soft, chewy wrappers and gentle flavor that makes you want to keep eating them.

They also offer pan-fried gyoza (dumplings) and deep-fried gyoza, so you can compare a range of different gyoza. If you want to try some more unique gyoza, the spicy ones and gyoza made with cheese are also recommended.

The “shiso (perilla) cheese gyoza” is said to taste even better with some Tabasco added.

These classic gyoza dumplings have wrappers with just the right thickness, a crisp and fragrant sear, and juicy meat juices that spread from inside. The garlic is mild, but the rich savory flavor still comes through, with an excellent balance against the sweetness of the vegetables. They are tasty even without any dipping sauce, and when eaten with the vinegar + pepper on the table, the quality of the ingredients stands out even more.

As expected, the signature sui-gyoza (boiled dumplings) and yaki-gyoza (pan-fried dumplings) are must-orders. There is a guide on the table explaining how to eat them, so anyone can enjoy them easily and deliciously. The staff also kept just the right level of attentiveness and responded right away even during All you can drink service, which made for pleasant hospitality.

Since it seems to be a gyoza restaurant, they ordered kurobuta gyoza (Berkshire pork dumplings), crispy gyoza, sui-gyoza (boiled dumplings), as well as shrimp in mayo sauce and fried rice. Everything was good, but the most popular kurobuta gyoza stood out for its large size and plenty of juicy meat filling.

もけもけ!

I chose this place because I wanted to eat gyoza (dumplings), but I was Surprising at how big each one was. The wrapper is on the thicker side, nice and chewy, and very filling. The shiso gyoza had a whole shiso leaf inside each one. It is easy on the wallet and recommended for drinking parties.

Gyoza Sakaba Shimbashi Honten

Gyoza Sakaba Shinbashi Honten is an izakaya (Japanese pub) in a great location just a 1-minute walk from Shinbashi Station or Uchisaiwaicho Station. It is popular for its wide lineup of gyoza (dumplings), from classic options to more unique varieties.

The place has the lively feel you would expect from an izakaya, while still not being too noisy, so you can spend time here in a relaxed way.

They offer a lineup of Homemade gyoza (dumplings) made with a wide range of ingredients, including lamb, pakuchi (cilantro), and celery.

In addition to A la carte orders, the "Yaki Gyoza assortment" is also recommended, letting you enjoy plain, cheese, and shrimp gyoza on one plate. They also offer an All you can eat gyoza course that comes with All you can drink, with a choice of 2-hour or 3-hour plans.

Along with casual small plates to enjoy while you wait for the gyoza to finish grilling, they also offer a full lineup of izakaya dishes that pair well with drinks.

The photo shows the "tenshin 5-item assortment." It is served in a steamer basket with items like xiaolongbao and shumai inside, and it is said to offer classic yet satisfying flavors.

Since I like spicy food, I chose the boiled dumplings simmered in a very spicy sauce. The name made me brace myself, but it was not just pure heat, and it had plenty of good flavor too. They finish it by pouring piping hot oil over dried chili peppers, which brings out the aroma and really whets your appetite. The boiled dumplings were piping hot all the way through, and I think they were cooked evenly as well.

The boiled dumplings were chewy and floating in a piping hot soup seasoned with salt and pepper. I had them with chili oil. The fried rice was of course freshly made too, and the toasty aroma and the texture of the bamboo shoots were great.
