About Restaurant Chimney

Tabelog 100 Steak / Teppanyaki WEST 2025 honoree in Imari, delivering grilled beef and hamburger steak at JPY 3,000–JPY 3,999. The 3.63 score and limited Saturday dinner service make this a smart lunch booking for travelers already visiting Saga's porcelain district.

Restaurant Chimney is a dining option in Imari with a verified price range of JPY 3,000–JPY 3,999. Its published hours are concentrated around midday, with a short Saturday evening window, so timing matters when planning a visit.

The verified schedule is Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 11:30 AM–1:30 PM; Thursday is closed. Saturday also lists an evening window from 5:30–7:30 PM. No more specific location detail is verified here beyond Imari.

What the Tabelog Listing Signals

Restaurant Chimney is listed in the Tabelog 100 Steak / Teppanyaki WEST 2025 recognition. That makes the venue relevant for diners comparing recognized steak and teppanyaki options in western Japan, while the confirmed price range keeps expectations in the JPY 3,000–JPY 3,999 band.

Beyond the recognition, the verified public facts are limited. Specific claims about dishes, sourcing, seating, payment methods, reservations, parking, chef background, or service format are not confirmed here, so diners should check current venue information before making detailed plans.

How This Compares to Imari's Peers

For diners comparing Restaurant Chimney with other named options, useful reference points include Kate cuore, Drive-in Tori Imari ten, Lion, Shitamachi no Yoshoku Jidaiya, and Yamaguchi Okonomiya. The useful distinction from the verified data is straightforward: Restaurant Chimney has the confirmed JPY 3,000–JPY 3,999 range and the Tabelog 100 Steak / Teppanyaki WEST 2025 listing.

Because detailed menus and amenities are not verified here, the best comparison is practical rather than descriptive: choose Restaurant Chimney if its price range, Imari location, and limited published schedule fit your plan. For other dining, compare current hours and availability directly before going.

Sourcing and Execution

The verified record does not specify beef sourcing, individual dishes, course structure, or cooking format. It is therefore safest to treat Restaurant Chimney as an Imari venue with verified recognition in the steak / teppanyaki category without assuming particular cuts, brands, sauces, or set meals.

The same caution applies to dietary needs, allergies, takeout, delivery, and private-party use: none of those details are verified here. If any of those factors will decide your visit, confirm directly through current venue channels before traveling.

At JPY 3,000–JPY 3,999, Restaurant Chimney sits in the middle of Imari's price spectrum, but it's the only steak-focused venue with a Tabelog 100 distinction. Lion costs nearly double (JPY 6,000–JPY 7,999) without a clear culinary specialty, making Chimney the better value for grilled beef. If you're just looking for a quick, inexpensive meal, Drive-in Tori Imari ten offers yakitori and chicken for JPY 2,000–JPY 2,999, though it lacks Chimney's award credential and private-room option.

For diners prioritizing ambiance over cuisine type, Kate cuore provides an Italian alternative, but the lack of published pricing and awards makes it harder to gauge. If steak is non-negotiable, Chimney is your best bet in Imari proper. The next Tabelog-recognized steakhouse is typically 40+ minutes away in Karatsu or Saga City, so book here if you're already in town for the porcelain galleries and want an efficient, well-reviewed lunch before heading out.

Booking is straightforward for lunch Monday through Wednesday and Friday through Sunday; dinner is available only Saturday evenings with a tight 5:30–7:30 PM window. Walk-ins are possible at lunch if you arrive early, but reservations are safer given the 30-seat capacity and local popularity. Cash only, parking on-site, and private rooms available for groups make this the most practical steak option for families or small parties driving through Saga Prefecture.
