Any recommendation for Yakiniku restaurants, that serve pork, chicken, lamb and beef in Tokyo and Osaka?

Since my wife does not eat beef, I need to find one that serves other meats too.

This yakiniku is at Osaka but not at the tourist areas.

万両 Manryou Minami Morimachi

Need to make reservation as this place is very popular. No English menu but the servers are helpful. The price is very reasonable n the quality of meats are very good. They will put the ID number of the cow n places they came from on the wall of there shop.

For tempura restaurant

At Namba in Osaka , Tempura Daikichi.
For lunch menu, there’s set meal at 1000yens.
Price very reasonable, tempura very tasty. The outer coating is very crispy but not oily & the meat inside are still very moisture not dry at all.

Fuunji at Shinjuku, mind-blown by the tsukemen. Only had tsukemen once or twice and still preferred soupy ramen, but this totally changed my life forever.

Like many others I also recommend Fuunji at Shinjuku for tsukemen. Super tasty, not usually a fan of tsukemen but this blew my mind.
Went at 2.30pm, no queue.

Anyone tried Uni Murakami in Hakodate?

Is it possible for 4 pax to share 1 bowl to try it?

Is it that different compared to the morning markets?

Uni has always been too fishy for my family but wanted to try to see if there is a difference when super fresh
