About
Founded in Tokyo by Dining Innovation Co., Ltd., Yakiniku Like pioneered the 'one-person yakiniku' format — each diner receives a personal smokeless grill, eliminating the social awkward­ness of solo BBQ and keeping pace brisk. The concept entered Hong Kong in 2019 and rapidly expanded to more than 20 locations citywide. Every branch imports genuine Japanese Wagyu cuts, with seasonal specials such as A5 Omi beef offered for limited periods with certified origin documentation. Set meals include Japanese rice, miso soup, and a choice of salad or kimchi, making for a complete, satisfying meal at prices accessible to everyday diners. The QR code ordering system and efficient turnover mean even peak-hour visits rarely feel rushed.

Yakiniku Like sits in Multiple locations (Causeway Bay, Mong Kok, Tsim Sha Tsui, Sha Tin, and more), one of Hong Kong's neighborhoods where authentic Japanese kitchens have taken root. The house does not publish an online booking link; call ahead to secure a seat, especially on weekends.
