[2025 Hong Kong Restaurant] Travel Guide for IwaiGo Izakaya (Updated Jul)

$4X-$6X has already eaten high-quality izakaya food It also takes 3 minutes to walk from Exit A1 of Yau Ma Tei Station in the heart of Yau Tsim Mong! ! Super convenient ~ (Remember if you want to try the special dishes, you must make a reservation with the restaurant first🍴 ✨Appetizer @$20 It's so sour and refreshing. It's so appetizing. I can't help but think about it before ordering. (The other half almost wanted to eat mine too, and he ate it halfway through to relieve his boredom~ Shop sign ✨Wagyu grilled on salt plate $138 It is indeed a sign! ! You must eat this when you come here Wagyu beef is fragrant and soft, with warm heat and Himalayan pink rock salt for natural seasoning. Natural and fresh, it enhances the flavor of Wagyu beef❤️ ✨Wagyu burger $68 OMG, the burgers on the iron plate really have a different flavor! ! When the dish was served, the aroma of wagyu had already rushed into my nose. Their burgers are very solid. Every burger is chewy and full of meaty flavor. Add high-quality Japanese egg yolk🥚 and sauce on top of the radish, minus the heavy greasiness. It also has more Japanese flavor (I really want to order an extra bowl of rice to go with it. It’s so satisfying😌 Specialties ✨Octopus roll $88 I believe you won’t be able to eat this fusion dish in any ordinary izakaya. It’s like a French izakaya. If you don’t look carefully, you won’t notice that it’s made from octopus🐙, and there won’t be a strong seafood flavor when you eat it. Instead, it fills the entire mouth gently. You must remember to eat it with shredded radish. They are not supporting roles at all. To put it more exaggeratedly, they are 0.5+0.5=1 The fruity and sour radish shreds bring out the fragrance of the octopus roll and the slight smoke, toughness and elasticity. You really need to use "ta" Try out the texture and flavor levels of each bite ✨Beef tongue $68 The beef tongue is quite thick, but it does not affect the taste at all and remains soft and tender. And the slight charcoal feeling brings out the beef aroma even more ✨Chicken skin dumplings $48 Five pieces for only $48, and it’s delicious! ! The outer skin is slightly crispy and tough, and the inside contains not only meat, but also a lot of vegetables, which makes it refreshing (and you can enjoy the flavor of chicken at the same time) ✨Free chicken sticks $58 Friends, their chicken nugget is a clean version with green onions in the middle. It has a chewy texture without covering the original taste of chicken👅 and is paired with sauce and egg yolk Sure enough, you must try their chicken sticks in every izakaya you go to. You will know the style of the chefs and the store. ✨Plum wine soda $68 Personally, I think the CP value of their wine is quite high. The aroma of plum is not strong, but you can still feel its presence. The texture of the soda is also quite comfortable. Also unexpectedly liked +1 +1 ✨Highball $78 Not only the price and portion surprised me, but the taste👅 also made me smile. Generally, highball drinks are 200 points full, but this cup can be drunk silently while eating and chatting. ✨Oysters🦪$58 Fresh! ! Zhang Bu Bu Oyster🦪 is fragrant but not fishy The seasonings prepared by the chefs enhance the freshness and allow guests to directly taste the care they put into selecting the ingredients. IwaiGo Izakaya’s products are all very thoughtful. The balance of each bite is perfectly balanced, and the freshness of the food is leveled up.
