About this place
Start with meat sushi, move on to yakitori and fried chicken, then finish with fried rice. At NIKURAKU, the menu centres on meat dishes that are easy to share. One diner, for example, described enjoying an assorted meat sushi platter, yakitori, fried chicken and chips, followed by fried rice and cheesecake for dessert. It is a set-up that suits a group keen to share a range of dishes. That diner also mentioned seasonal pickles, carpaccio and cucumber with a savoury dashi flavour between the meat dishes. The menu includes chicken-breast carpaccio and chicken cooked with yuzu kosho ponzu, too—possible choices when you want something lighter.
For à la carte dining, there is shrimp and mushroom ajillo with baguette, as well as garlic-sautéed edamame. Add a few snacks between the meat dishes and put together a meal with beer or cocktails. Groups with bigger appetites can consider all-you-can-eat and drink courses featuring Japanese beef steak, seared sushi, yakitori and hot pot, or a course built around special mochi pork shabu-shabu. Plans with all-you-can-drink options are listed, making them worth comparing for a group gathering over food and drinks. Dinner reservations are accepted, and booking is recommended. If you are planning a group meal or night out in Kabukicho, check the course details to find an option that fits.
