Shibuya City, Tokyo, Japan｜Harajuku Gyozaro

Location of the restaurant is easy to find and accessible. The price of the food is reasonable and the size of each gyoza is quite big. I preferred the gyoza with garlic. The side dishes such as the beans sprout and tofu are also worth the try. The was a 20 min wait in the queue outside on a weekday night but once seated, the service is pretty fast.

A fantastic hidden gem that you need to try. Menu is limited to only panfried or steamed pork gyoza (with or without garlic) and sides but who can complain when 6 gyoza is only 340 yen?! We sat at the bar and got to watch the staff make the gyoza which was fun. There was no line when we arrived at 6.07pm on a Friday night and we got seated immediately, but there was one when we left around 7pm. The gyoza was fresh and juicy. Not the plumpiest but still super tasty. We got the garlic because yum. The panfried gyoza were my favourite, but the steamed were just as good. The miso cucumber side was deliciously fresh (crunchier than Aussie cucumbers but not as juicy!) and the miso reminded me of peanut butter? We decided to get the cucumber after reading all the google reviews that mentioned them and are glad we did! A fantastic meal that only set me and my partner back by 1,760 total including 2 x panfried gyoza, 1 x steamed gyoza, 1 x side and 2 x drinks. They are cash only though. Service wasn’t exactly with a smile, but it was fast and efficient, and you didn’t need to flag anyone down (they just seemed to know and weee very intuitive!). We did notice the staff joke around with some of the other customers so maybe it was just a language barrier (they had no issues understanding us though). Thank you! We will be back and recommending this place to all our friends :)

It did not disappoint. We waited in line for over an hour but the gyoza was absolutely delightful. We kept ordering more cucumber salad, that was a treat too. And the sake was also tasty.
