This was my first time trying Japanese bbq and it was really good! They had so many different sauces that I had never tried before, my favorite was the egg yolk combined with the house sauce. Service was good, food was amazing! Would definitely recommend.
Food was amazing! The sauces are very unique and have their own distinct flavor profile that no other restaurant would have. Very high quality meat, my favorite was the beef belly. If you’re a lover of wagyu, then this is the place to be.
Great food and service. We came in on a Saturday evening, got seated right away. High quality meats and vegetables. Would definitely come back!

Meat Time is a Japanese yakiniku restaurant located in the Bay Area, known for its high-quality meat. The menu offers various options, including Shinshu Premier Beef, brisket, pork belly, pork cheek, squid, galbi, sirloin, and beef tongue. The AYCE (all-you-can-eat) option is popular among customers and comes with four main meat choices. The brisket is a standout, known for its amazing taste and non-chewy texture.
Besides the meat, Meat Time also offers a variety of sides, appetizers, and soups, all highly rated by customers. The tofu, curry rice, and karaage are popular choices. The staff provides friendly service, although the restaurant can be a bit understaffed, leading to slow or staggered meat service. The interior is neat and has a darker ambiance.
Customers have praised the price-to-quality ratio of the meat, with one reviewer stating that Meat Time fills a niche for yakiniku in the Bay Area. Another reviewer enjoyed the Teres Major Tender Steak (Wagyu), Yakishabu Brisket with Golden Egg Yolk, Large Beef Intestine, and Pork Belly, finding the wagyu particularly well-marinated and tender. The server, Felix, was also noted for being attentive. However, some customers have mentioned issues with the cleanliness of the bathrooms and floors, which can be greasy, and the potential for large flames when cooking the meat.
