Excellent little(REALLY little — like ten seats) place. There is an English menu. You order while in line so that your food is being cooked before you sit down. Seating is at a bar only, and patrons appear rushed to finish eating so that the customers waiting in line can be seated and take their turn. The steak is very good for what you pay(get the tenderloin, don’t try to save a few yen on the meat by getting a cheaper cut). My only complaint is that they give about 5 or 6 french fries only. Really, 5 or 6! I would have liked a few more french fries, but at least the dinner came with rice so I had some starch, and otherwise I really enjoyed the meal.

Such a gem — well cooked steaks(rib eye, tenderloin, sirloin cuts available) with a delicious sauce that makes you want to finish your rice, just so you can use the rice to finish all the sauce. Items come in a set, with salad, fries, a few green beans and rice. Salad is just a simple small bowl of lettuce and vinegrette, nothing else. Price is amazing considering what you get… so why the TWO stars deduction? If I were a health and safety inspector, I would have given a serious warning and proper sanitary education to the staff. One of the staff, dealt with sorting out the different cuts of steaks, salad, garnish and pouring water. Ohhh the horror when I witnessed what unfolded before my eyes, after I have already eaten my salad. He used bare hands to organize the steaks, proceeded to use the same, unwashed, bare hands to put the lettuce into the bowls, pour water, rip up some parsley garnish and handed the plates to guests. Oh the cross contamination that occurred. It wasn’t just a one time offense — it was as though this was acceptable. No other customers who were sitting in front of him said anything either. I wish I knew Japanese so that I could write a note to advise him.

Highly recommend. Some of the best steak I’ve ever had. 10 seat restaurant. Tenderloin wrapped in bacon or Sirloin. They have an English menu. Moderately priced. Similar meal would have cost 30% more in the states.

I was craving steak, so I decided to venture into Le Monde even though it had no English Unilocal reviews yet. And I’m glad I did! It’s a tiny steakhouse bar which can maybe seat a dozen people. It’s just a small door in the alley with the name in Kanji on a stainless steel sign above the door. It does not say«Le Monde» anywhere, so I had to compare the sign to «ル・モンド * ルモンド» to be sure I was at the right place. It is exactly where Unilocal places it on the map though. Once I went in, the hostess spoke to me for an uncomfortably long time(considering I couldn’t understand any of it) in Japanese. When she saw my blank stare, she gave me a English picture menu. Whew! I ordered the 110g tenderloin stake(¥1250) and a salad(¥110) and coke(¥220). The steak was absolutely delicious. It was bacon wrapped, very flavorful(had some sort of sauce/marinade) and had some garlic butter or something on top. It also came with a small amount of green beans and french fries. The salid was nothing but lettuce with a vinaigrette dressing but was fine. The coke was, well, a coke. But the ¥220 coke price was far more reasonable than the ¥750 that a nearby restaurant charged me the night before. Of course 110g is rather petite, so I wish I’d ordered something bigger or more. I doubt they take Visa, so I paid cash. Everyone was nice even to an illiterate(in Japanese) gaijin like me. I would absolutely return here again.
