Bulking up for your 1 pack ๐๐๐ that place looks amazing for so cheap ๐ฎ yummy
Did you starve yourself for several days before eating at Saizeriya ๐? This is really a lot of food & wine for USD 26.
""I'm going to a restaurant that brings a taste of Italy to Japan." "I'm ordering Hamburg Steak"
wish i was there with you looks like a nice place with nice cheap food ๐
I've only visited the restaurants they opened in Hong Kong, so I don't know if they're as authentic as the ones in Japan. They're not as good a value as the Japanese ones, at least.
Nice find
So help me if you donโt dip that bread in the escargot juices I will straight up dieโฆoh! It looks like you did ๐
Ate at the one in akihabara one evening. Was surprised how cheap it was for a plate of pasta. It was good for the value.
It's funny, you went to an Italian place and didn't even get any Italian food ๐ ๐
I would have been full from the soup and the doria, but would have made room for the tiramisu!
Escargot on bread is the best. The garlic, herbs goes well with bread or toast.
The food looked great STJ ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐ Thanks for a great video ๐
"I'm ready to eat and drink." ๐๐
I was a little high on my guess. You are a mighty eater! Thanks for the video.
Saizeriya is my go to comfort food when I'm in Japan. The onion soup is really good and I'll usually have that with a pizza for a total of ยฅ900๐ค
This is live Kodoku No Gurume! you sure eat a lot, Goro san!!
What insane prices, I wish we had one of these in the uk as it would be so popular. Itโs hard eating out at the moment as money so tight for a lot of people. In the U.K. we have Wetherspoons which are the best value and are popular.
Iโm starting to suspect that youโre infact not a man but a heavily pregnant woman expecting twins or even triplets because youโre always eating for at least 2-3 people. Not that Iโm judging mind you but maybe hold off on the wine..?๐๐คฃ๐
2:32 I think they call that a "mega pint" of red wine.
Onion soup and escargot provide some French contributions to the Italian inspired restaurant chain.
I often eat at Saizerya, the food is good. But no escargot!
I cannot decide if this is Japanese Shoney's or Denny's, but both are right equivalent
Pro tip: don't eat here. It's bad.
Saizeria has been undergoing some significant shrinkflation the past couple of years and a number of dishes have either shrunk or been removed from the menu. The target market is middle and high school studetns and adults earning a lower income. IMO, the food at Denny's or Coco's is much better. It's my understanding that they're actually operating at a loss in Japan, while being subsidized by their overseas operations. While not terrible, itโs like eating frozen food from the supermarket. If that's your jam, you'll like it.
That's enough food for a family of four. I honestly don't know where you put it all. But it looked tasty. Glad you enjoyed it.
Very good value.
Iโd never cook if I lived in Japan – restaurants are so cheap.
This reminds me of the old Skylark diners back 20 years ago.
'Accidentally' ordering the large decanter of wine ? The food looked great. I wouldn't touch the snails though.
I am full from watching you ๐โค
man this guy eats a lot
Australian beef, yummy. Iโm definitely going to try here, certainly wonโt touch American beef fed on growth hormones or its chlorine washed chicken.
"I'm completely full … just one dessert, then…" – has four – vintage STJ!
ๆๆณ: I ended up + V + -ing. I ended up ordering a lot. Or just: I ordered a lot.
Pedicure
doria? never heard of it but will try it with teriyaki pork and rice
We discovered Saizeriya in a Tokyo suburb, maybe 10 years ago. Coming back from a brewery tour, we were hungry, saw a big picture of golden chicken wings, went in, and were amazed at the delicious food for such a low price.
Since then, every trip to Japan, it's one of the first restaurants we visit. Almost everything is good – except maybe the pizzas I find a bit wimpy, small, and lacking flavour.
"The first restaurant opened in 1967 in Ichikawa City, Chiba Prefecture. As of early 2024, there are over 1,000 Saizeriya locations in Japan, making it a ubiquitous, low-cost Italian family restaurant chain. The chain operates over 1,500 total stores globally, with a significant presence in Asia."
"I accidentally went for the large." Yeah, okay.
