Ikura Shibuya

We went to this restaurant shortly before dinner service on a quiet Sunday after a 5-minute walk from the Shibuya Scramble. Having arrived prior to the restaurant's opening, we found that there was no line and our group of 5 was accommodated immediately, with the server having us sit at a table across the multiple bar seats. The staff was very nice, welcoming, and quick to cater to our requests. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very welcoming and clean, being well-lit and spacious. The restroom was also large by Japanese standards. The server, who could speak decent English, explained the menu (dishes ranging from JPY2000-3000) and took our orders. Our group ordered their signature wagyu hamburger under their omurice, with choices for the sauces being demiglace, ketchup, and mentaiko cream. Within minutes, our orders arrived, hot and with a jiggly omurice marked by the trademark paw print inviting our appetites. The food was served quickly and tasted very good, with the omurice being fluffy and tasting fresh but not as runny as I would like. The wagyu hamburger was tender and tasty and served as a nice companion to the tangy fried rice and flavorful demiglace. Overall, our group was satisfied with the entire omurice dish, savoring every bite cooked by their talented chefs. Upon finishing our meal, our group settled the bill (they accept cash, card, and digital payments) and we were offered their exclusive stickers, serving as a nice souvenir commemorating our visit. I would recommend this nice, warm restaurant to anyone looking to try out a decent plate of omurice! ありがとうございます!

The demi-glaze hamburg steak omelet 🍳 with cheese 🧀 added was def the best. The black curry was good too but the demi-glaze was the best in my opinion 🍛. Also recommend trying the corn soup 🌽. It was not too sweet and savory. Note that there is a line so go early to get a spot without having to wait in line! I went a few minutes before it opened and there was still a line.

THE BEST omurice I have tried in Japan, and believe me, I’ve eaten a few. The egg is so soft and fluffy. Recommend trying ANY omurice with the Hakata Mentaiko sauce. Amazing staff who are very passionate about their work. I love it here so much, and I hope to come back soon. Oh yeah kids, the salad was AWESOME.

Food was spectacular! Small space with a simple menu, but well worth it if there is a line. I definitely recommend the Demi glaze sauce and the cheese add-on

The food is good, nice and clean location and the waitress was very kind. I know red meat is expensive, but feels like an overpriced omrice burguer. This spot is popular, long lines at lunch and dinner. Try to come out of peak time if you can. Give it a try if you can (and have the funds to spare).

Tried this dish out because of the good review. I think overall it tastes good :) also a good experience. But not really something that wows me, feels a bit like having a burger with egg and rice after all.

We were a group of 4, got seated after a few minutes, but waited the food for more than 20 minutes. A group of 2 girls were seated after us, they finished their meal when our food was just served. The server said because they didn’t order the hamburger meat, but ours do, so our food takes longer. However, most of the people got their food within hamburger meat within 10 minutes. We feel like the server/ owner just forgot our food and serve other group first, which they didn’t even apologize for it.

My husband and I came a few minutes before opening and we were seated in the bar seating so we got to view our omurice being made. The chef is very skilled in creating the omurice! I got the mentaiko cream sauce with cheese and it was delicious. I love the addition of shiso underneath as the meat, cheese, and sauce were rich and the shiso leaf tasted fresh. My husband got the demi glace, which he also really enjoyed. He added the potage (soup) with his meal and it was so light, creamy, and had a natural sweetness. We would like to come back to try the black curry. 😊
