Roast Beef and Steak: Japan's Seven Most Delicious Meat Delights

Roast Beef and Steak: Japan’s Seven Most Delicious Meat Delights

Whether you want to recharge your batteries during the summer heat or warm yourself up during the cold months of winter, a savory steak bowl is always a great choice! This is why this time around, we’ve focused on the very best of Japan’s meat restaurants, a compilation that not only beef enthusiasts will enjoy! Let’s dig right in.


1. A Luxurious Roast Beef Bowl at a Meat Bar



Shinjuku’s Bistro HaLVeL Bar is the right place to start our journey to the world of roast beef and steak. In the evening, the place turns into a genuine meat bar but during noon, three different lunch menus are available. Among them is our recommendation, the roast beef bowl! Recently, these kind of beef bowls have become very popular not only among gourmets but also among people craving for a savory beef snack – which is precisely why this bar tends to get rather crowded. Not only the recommended roast beef bowl is delicious, however, as a meat specialty store, the entire menu definitely is worth a try.

2. Roast Beef and Sparerib Lunch in Roppongi



More than often, we end up having only little time to spare for a proper lunch but sometimes, it’s the opposite: then we wish for a slow, luxurious meal without any hurry that lets us fully indulge in the delicious dish we’re enjoying. The restaurants in Roppongi that we are about to introduce offer just that – along with plenty of high-quality beef. The third spot on our recommendation list, Kaikaya, serves a so-called kalbi bowl, limited to only twenty servings per day. Kalbi are barbecued and marinated spareribs, Korean-style, and as you can imagine, these twenty bowls sell out very quickly. Wagyu Bar’s beef bowl, spot number four, is made out of A5 high-class Japanese beef. Kick back and enjoy a magnificent meat lunch!

3. A Very Special Limited Menu: Steak Bowl in Akasaka



When speaking about the royalty of meat, the one dish that will probably always come out on top is the steak. Of course, steak also goes excellently with rice, so the appearance of a steak bowl was only a matter of time. Nakayubi in Tokyo’s Akasaka serves the “honest steak bowl set” with Japanese Arita beef from Miyazaki Prefecture. The daily special is prepared with rare meat cuts, which is probably why it is called honest – this is genuine prime steak. Additionally, a limited menu is available once in a while and if you’re lucky, you might just visit on one of these days!

5. Meat Lover’s Paradise: Welcome to Osaka



Let’s head to Osaka, the kitchen of Japan, where we’d like to introduce a beef cutlet specialty store called Fuji, located in Nipponbashi. Let’s take a closer look at the restaurant’s amazing roast beef bowl. The juicy beef, grilled at high heat, is piled so plentifully on top of the rice, just looking at it will make your mouth water. When seeing so much quality marbled loin, a lot of people might be concerned about the price of this delicacy, but worry not, there are special set menu deals that make the roast beef bowl quite affordable. Even for those who don’t call themselves meat fans, this is definitely a must-visit location.

6. Unexpected Encounters: Savoring Beef at a Vegetable Marke



Roast Beef Hidamari is probably in the least expected place of all: the restaurant is located within Fukuoka’s Vegefru Stadium, a vegetable and fruit market of local produce. The restaurant’s beef bowl, topped with a large heap of roasted meat, has become a favorite among the locals and in combination with the salad bar, the treat makes for an amazing lunch. Naturally, said salad bar is stocked with local produce straight from the market! So don’t just focus on the meat but also indulge in fresh and crisp vegetables.

7. Recharge Your Energy with a Steak Bowl



When hearing “steak”, most people think of the luxurious and incredibly delicious sirloin steak. Kitchen Yumeya, in the city of Fukuoka, serves this king of all steaks as a savory and affordable sirloin steak bowl. The high-quality meat rests on top of fluffy white rice and tastes just as tender and flavorful as it looks. This is the perfect spot to recharge your energy after a long, hard day of sightseeing or work!
