Tenkaichi Japanese BBQ Restaurant (formerly Daidomon) is a perfect destination for a real carnivore, especially to the beef lovers. Tenkaichi specialise in wagyu beef, customers can choose from a variety of a-la-carte dishes to set meals, or simply go for the popular deluxe and premium Yakiniku buffet, where you can enjoy free flow of premium beef and seafood. The restaurant offers an interactive hands-on cooking and dining experience by allowing you to grill your own meats and seafood at your own table. Equipped with specially imported grills, you will find comfort dining at Tenkaichi as the restaurant is smokeless and environment friendly.
Hidden in an inconspicuous location at Citygate (Keypoint) on Beach Road, the restaurant is only 2 minutes away from Nicoll Highway MRT station on the circle line. Tenkaichi took over the space of the 58-year Mong Hing Teochew Restaurant which was closed last year in 2013 when their lease was expired. We were told that Tenkaichi will stay on Beach Road as long as the building exist. Therefore this is the best time for you to visit Tenkaichi, before they transform into a new development.

VERDICT
Tenkaichi is an unpretentious Japanese Yakiniku restaurant with a relaxed setting. The restaurant interiors and furnishing may look tired as the owner decided not to have any renovation since there is a need to relocate when the new development start. But that doesn’t subtract from the overall good value of the buffet. If you are a voracious eater or a fan of the marque item Wagyu beef which achieved a score of 7, you should be attracted by Tenkaichi.
