Yakiniku — Japanese grill-it-yourself barbecue — is the best group dinner in Tokyo: you order plates of meat, cook them over a tabletop grill, and drink as you go. Many places offer an all-you-can-eat (tabehodai) or all-you-can-drink (nomihodai) course for a fixed price.

Expect ¥3,000–¥6,000 per person with drinks at a mid-range place; premium wagyu specialists cost more. Most yakiniku restaurants in Tokyo take reservations, and weekends fill up — arrive before 18:30 or book.
