Lonely Planet

"Gyōza are the only thing on the menu here, but you won’t hear any complaints from the regulars who queue up to get their fix. Have them sui (boiled) or yaki (pan-fried), with or without niniku (garlic) or nira (chives) – they’re all delicious."

Daniel Ang

"The Gyozas were fantastic – delightfully thin and just a thin layer of crisp. As you bite your way through, the juice from the pork fillings would burst in your mouth, savoury-sweet and fresh."

Fast Japan

"Harajuku Gyozaro is a restaurant serving cheap and delicious gyoza in two types. The fried gyoza: the outside is crispy and the inside is juicy. The boiled/steamed gyoza are fluffy on the outside and juicy too. They sit in a tiny amount of water so they stay moist."

Chris Rowthorn

"Gyozaro in Harajuku is a no-frills local gem serving tasty, cheap gyoza dumplings. The stupendously low prices make it worth your time."

Time Out Tokyo

"There are just two styles of gyoza dumplings available at this no-frills eatery – fried or steamed – and they're as tasty as they are affordable. If you've got some spare change, order up a beer and some bean sprouts too."

Tsunagu Japan

"This place is so popular that you might need to wait for a while but it’s worth the wait."

Rachel Bale

"These Japanese dumplings steal the show."

Teo van den Broeke

"For a real spit-and-sawdust experience in the heart of Harajuku, head to Harajuku Gyozaro and prepare to taste the best potsticker dumplings of your life. Super cheap and ultra-authentic, take a book and settle in for a deliciously woozy afternoon."

Sophia Fukunishi

"It’s so cheap that you can get your fill of tasty, tasty gyoza and it won’t cost more than $20."

Anais Pedro

"The prices are very cheap and it’s delicious!!!"
