I just love Japanese food and every chance that I can get I go Japanese---That's why I enjoy going to Sumibi Tajimaya Yakiniku which you can find in Crossroads, Banilad, Cebu City. There was even a point that we would dine there on a weekly basis because we got addict to it. Yakiniku is a Japanese-Korean style of grilling and it's fast becoming popular in Cebu. Here are 5 reasons why Sumibi Tajimaya Yakiniku is a Must-Try. 1. Taste - Their beef tastes like  butter. When you place it on the grill, the marbling is perfect! Their pork is also amazing. It's a paper-thin version of bacon. Their rice is white, fluffy and sticky. The sauce that they use to marinate their chicken makes my mouth water all the time. Even their vanilla ice cream is a plus in the taste section. Their All You Can Eat Menu is a meat lover's dream come true! I know that they only serve the freshest of ingredients, that's what brings out the flavor in the food. They don't put a lot of  seasoning or marinade on their meats. They let the diners decide on what they want to put on their meat. 2. Location, Location, Location - the restaurant is in Crossroad, Banilad which located near Cebu IT and Ayala Business Parks. It's very easy to find and get to. There's a variety of public transportation that can help you get there. If you bring a car, parking is sufficient enough. 3. Price - their prices are reasonable especially for their All You Can Eat menu. The food is definitely worth it! You won't regret it. It's definitely value for your money. 4. Customer Service - Sumibi's service crew are courteous and efficient. They'll take good care of you. Our plates were always filled. 5. Ambience - the place is well-lighted, seats/booths are comfortable and in some ways provides a bit of privacy from the other diners. And the most important thing, you won't smell like barbecue or smoke when you leave the restaurant since they use smokeless charcoal grills.

I just love grilling meat! Plus if it's "ALL YOU CAN EAT" i love their flavors here. It's a great place to dine if you're craving for some yakiniku. Their sauce is great, too!

It's super accessible. Crossroads is one of the best places I want to visit every week. They got the best restaurants and lounges (they're a bit pricey ofc but very satisfying!! Omg Im guna criiii 😩) Been craving for a Korean food these past fewdays but Yakiniku was a blessing in disguise Hahaha grilled alooot of beef (sirloin, ribs, tenderloin) and the cabbages too with the onions! 🤢 I think I have a new favorite, considering the fact that I won't suffer from the spicy Korean Kimchi, I can just eat cabbage w a delicious Yakiniku sauce! ~ Grilled Meat dishes 🥓🥓🥓

Personally one of the Top Two Best Yakiniku places in Cebu that I would recommend. Not as expensive as Kanyoen, but they have the same Premium Quality. The second floor has private smoking rooms for larger groups.

The Tajimaya branch we ate at was located in the area where I work, and boy, did I wish I discovered it sooner! Good thing my fiance introduced me to the place because it. is. good.The food is really great. Meat is already marinated with spices and sauces which results in a very savory taste after grilling. They also have authentic Japanese spices and sauces which add to the overall great experience.What I really like about the place is their table-grill system, which has air vents at the inside of the grill area. This prevents smoke from rising above and being so much of a bother, unlike other restaurants. They also use charcoal grill, so you can only expect the best.Prices are a bit expensive (though they do have unlimited meat at Php550 per person), but if you're looking for great Japanese food, then this is definitely the place!

Eat all you can for 550Php is a good deal! Their meat is good, tender and easily cooked. I don’t eat vegetables but I did not mind having their lettuce salad with shrimp sauce, it was good too good not to eat them. One can have more than enough to eat in this place.

I love this place! BEST wagyu beef in town.❤️Tip: 1.Call in advance to save a seat because they get really jam packed esp during dinner time. 2.Avoid the seats upstairs unless you’re really in a big group..it takes time for them to bring the food there. There was this one time, we ended up with the bill instead of the extra beef plates because it took a loooong while we got tired of waiting. 3.I’m not sure if the call bell upstairs works.🙄 still gonna keep coming back for wagyu beef cravings though.🤤

Amazing food and great staff. Their “all you can eat” option has a great selection to fill your stomach to the max for a great price. If you want to spend a little more money to experience premium quality beef and seafood, you can do that as well. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want a great eating experience!

Great food and great service. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable of everything on the menu. Ambiance is okay. I've only tried their Eat-All-You-Can and it was totally worth it, especially their beef. Once you've tasted it, you'll find yourself craving for it every now and then, believe me!! It's so good 🤤 The ambiance is great and intimate for family or a special someone. Will definitely come back for more.
