This restaurant's anchor is the solo grill: one smokeless electric grill per diner, one personal switch, your own pace. Yakiniku Like debuted in Japan in 2019 with this invention and now runs 170+ branches across Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand — and Vietnam.
On 28/08/2024, Vietnam's first branch opened on this very B3 floor — hundreds queued for the 29,000₫ opening sets. The brand's fun fact: in Japanese, 2 reads “ni” and 9 reads “ku” — together “niku”, meaning meat.
The restaurant has 8 solo-grill counters and 70 seats, plus large 6–8 person tables for Vietnam's group-grilling habit. Every grill is smokeless — smoke is drawn down from below, so you walk out smelling clean. QR ordering, food in 3 minutes: this is true fast-casual, not a romantic dinner spot.
Vietnam's first solo-yakiniku restaurant — private grills for solo diners alongside group tables.
