    Best place to eat in all of Tokyo. The tips seem weird when they say "TRY THE CUCUMBER" at a dumpling place, but seriously, TRY THE CUCUMBER!

    One of the most famous and popular restaurant for Yummy and unpretentious gyozas. Opens at 11.30am but there's a line forming outside as early as 11.15am. My favorite is the fried gyozas with garlic.

    The sauce that comes with the cucumber makes for a great gyoza sauce as well. Just dip your gyoza in the leftover cucumber sauce and enjoy a whole new taste sensation.

    Gyoza skin is very thin, so that means more filling! Delicious gyoza, and this place is casual and cozy for a quick beer and snack. Highly recommend. Lineup was not too bad on Sat late afternoon.

    order 9-12 gyoza per person. go for the garlic over the traditional, and try the cucumber salad—it’s refreshing. the gyoza are good for the price, and the taste is pretty good.

    Best gyoza I’ve ever had. Bring your A game. Dude next to me inhaled 24 dumplings in the time it took me to get through 6

    Steamed or pan-fried, original or garlic-you won't be disappointed with the gyoza served here. The wraps are nice & thin & the filling is just right for each bite. Cooked to perfection every time 👌🏼

    One of the must-try when in Tokyo. Prefer the pan fried original one compared to the boiled gyoza but they are both good. Do order the beans pout with minced meat too!

    The best gyoza I've had, anywhere. Pan fried with garlic is simply amazing. Great side dishes too. Fast service. All around, one of my favourite places in Tokyo.

    Get an ice cold beer, fried dumplings with garlic and leeks, and cucumbers. Thank me later.

    the #1 (pork pan fried gyoza) & the #2 (onion & chive pork gyoza) were delicious and cheap!

    Great genuine place. This place literally one has 4 things on the menu! Pan seared and steamed gyozas, cucumber with miso, rice, cabbage and beer. Is all delicious! The line goes fast!

    Pan fried dumplings are perfect. Crispy on the outside and very juicy on the inside. Also try the bean sprouts with minced meat. Tourists and locals alike come here. #cheapeats #tokyo

    All variety is nice - original, with garlic, pan-fried or boiled. Be sure to get your gyoza sauce ready (soy sauce mix with vinegar)

    The fried gyoza with leeks is tasty. However, i still prefer Osaka Ohso's gyoza over this. If you are in Tokyo, however, this would do for your gyoza craving. Prepare to fall in line.

    Gyozas are awesome. I recommend you get one of each. My favorites are the pan fried, but steam gyoza are also a good choice.

    Gyoza 🥟 temple!!! After a not-too long wait in a line outside the restaurant, we tasted an excellent combination of steamed and fried gyozas. Simple menu, great flavor.

    Gyoza and more gyoza. This might be the best and most affordable place to get it in Tokyo - you'll probably have to wait in line for a while. It's totally worth it.

    Great gyoza, fried or steamed, be sure to get the cucumbers and/or the bean sprouts on the side-by-side are delicious!

    Sit by the counter, don't mind the grease on the stoves, leek and garlic are very good, spicy sauce also very good. A bit of a wait but worth it.

    Excellent steamed and fried dumplings. Popular so be prepared for a line but moves quickly. Inexpensive as well.

    Amazing dumpling store. So tasty and not expensive at all. Dip your dumpling in a mix of soy sauce and chili oil!

    Best and probably the cheapest place for good Gyoza around Harajuku! Very popular with students and very long queues.

    It's true, pan fried is better. Thin skinned succulent meat filling. Try the cucumber and the bean sprouts with meat sauce. Worth the queue.

    There is often a queue outside the eatery. But you may enter to the eatery with short time waiting (about 5 minutes) because most customers do not stay at this eatery for long time. Be Patient !

    While Four Square claimed it was, this place is definitely not vegetarian friendly unless you want to eat cucumbers and cabbage. Non-veggie friends said the gyoza were delicious however.

    Service is a little unattentative but the food is cheap & spectacular. Make sure you order plenty of gyozas. Could be a line, around the counter service. English menus

    11 out of 10! Gorgeous gyoza! But after waiting in line to get in, order the whole menu in one hit to avoid another wait for the food. You will NOT be over ordering. CUCUMBER WITH MISO FOR LIFE!!

    Get one of everything, since everything is so cheap! The steamed dumplings with garlic are the better than the fried ones, imo.
