Kyoto What’s Matsusaka Beef: English speaking Yakiniku restaurant.
Beef, steak, beef, beef steak!! Their slogan says it all, they focus on one main product, and they do it well. This is a yakiniku/meat sushi restaurant of the highest level.
A relatively new store which has gained a good reputation in Kyoto. Their specialty Matsusaka Beef and such quality beef can be offered at a reasonable price because they buy the whole cow directly from the farms.
When you step into the Japanese machiya you are greeted by a long floor typical of a Kyoto townhouse; there are scratches on the pillars and the traditional ceiling the space gives a sense of history that can only be found in a Kyoto renovated townhouse. Maintaining this atmosphere, there are a variety of seating types, including pure Japanese-style private rooms that can accommodate 2 or more people, and private rooms that overlook the seasonal courtyard from the window.
As for the food, you can enjoy a higher-grade of Kobe, Omi and Matsusaka beef which you cook yourself-yakiniku style. They buy their whole Matsusaka beef fattened at the famous “Matsusaka Beef Village Ocean Farm”, offer a chance to try a wide selection of rare parts that you will not usually get to taste and source their seasonal vegetables from local Kyoto farmers.
