01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Every seat comes fitted with its own sour tower, letting diners pull their own chilled drinks whenever they please. That tabletop sour tap is the signature hook at Meat sometimes lemon sour, where flowing lemon sours fuel lively conversations across the dining room.

Much of the dining experience centers on cook-it-yourself teppan griddle specialties prepared right at the table. Diners can sear crisp-shelled traditional takoyaki, flip okonomiyaki stuffed with melted cheese, or spread out mentaiko and cheese monjayaki to share fresh and piping hot.

The food menu branches into satisfying bites designed to accompany drinks, featuring charcoal-grilled chicken skirt steak and juicy hamburger patties alongside generous Korean izakaya fare. Crisp yangnyeom fried chicken glazed in sweet and spicy sauce sits next to fragrant sesame chapchae glass noodles and golden cheese chijimi pancakes.

With an unfussy setting well suited to groups, the restaurant also features all-you-can-eat and all-you-can-drink plans. It makes an easy pick for casual meetups, celebrations, and late-night drinks when pouring and grilling at your own pace is the goal.
