Yakiuo Ishikawa: Saigon's Unique Meatless Yakiniku Omakase!
This place is seriously buzzing! Known for its almost one-of-a-kind "omakase x meatless yakiniku" concept in Saigon, Yakiuo Ishikawa is a must-try.
What's the Buzz?
Forget raw fish omakase! Here, it's all about grilling, but with a twist: the entire menu features exquisite seafood, shunning pork and beef. Evening sets offer six tantalizing choices, ranging from 980k to 3.7 million VND.
Lunchtime Deals You Can't Miss!
Recently, they've launched lunch sets at more accessible prices. My friend and I grabbed an Ikura Negitoro (380k VND) and a Healthy Bowl (250k VND). Each came with a refreshing salad and comforting soup. And because they had a special lunchtime grilling menu, we added a Tokujou (480k VND) featuring salmon, white fish, and bluefin tuna belly. The grand total, after tax, was around 1.4 million VND for two – a seriously satisfying feast at less than the price of a mid-range dinner set! Talk about value! 👌
The Secret Weapon: Red Vinegar Rice!
Beyond the signature grilled seafood, the red vinegar rice is the real star. While grilling sets include unlimited rice refills, it's so addictive, you'll find yourself craving more! The already delicious Japanese rice is elevated to a whole new level with the tangy red vinegar. Plus, you'll feel light and energized afterward, avoiding that heavy, bloated feeling – my absolute favorite thing about Japanese cuisine!
Final Verdict: A Must-Try in Saigon!
Overall, Yakiuo Ishikawa offers a unique and fascinating Japanese concept rarely found in Saigon. If you're curious, try their lunch sets for a budget-friendly taste of their culinary magic. Seriously, you have to try it!!
