A 40-Year Journey Dedicated to Truly Delicious Beef: "Azuki-colored Omi Beef"

A renowned restaurant with over 40 years of history, located near Katsura Imperial Villa, is famous as a sacred place for beef. When it comes to marbling, which symbolizes Wagyu, they believe that onl...y naturally occurring marbling from healthy cattle is acceptable. They do not use artificially produced marbled meat, opting instead for carefully raised, healthy, deep red Omi beef.

From steaks to meticulously crafted dishes, you'll experience how superficial indicators like brand and grade of beef are just that—superficial.

ChefYasushi Yamanaka - A Beef Lover Known Nationwide

Born in 1949 in Kyoto Prefecture, his dedication to beef is such that anyone involved in the meat industry holds him in high regard. The beef he serves comes exclusively from "Maruki Fukunaga Kizaburo Shoten" in Shiga Prefecture, with whom he has had a relationship since the opening of "Kuishinbo Yamanaka" in 1976. He only offers "purebred Tajima Omi beef," which is rarely available in the market. His approachable and unpretentious personality, as he shares his passion for this commitment with a smile over the counter, is a charm that rivals the exquisite menu items he offers.

SpaceA Space Dedicated to Enjoying Delicious Beef, Focused Solely on That One Point

It takes about 30 minutes by taxi from the center of Kyoto, so it cannot be said that the location is particularly convenient. Nevertheless, the fact that it is fully booked every day eloquently demonstrates how much support this restaurant receives from meat lovers across the country. The interior features white walls with a red theme, creating a space that perfectly embodies the word "authentic." While the table seating is nice, enjoying a lively conversation filled with Chef Yamanaka's passion for beef at the open counter while watching his skilled techniques is also a delightful experience.

Food "The Culinary World of Chef Yamanaka Centered Around Tajima's Omi Beef"

The steak that attracts enthusiasts from all over the country goes without saying, but the carefully selected menu featuring Tajima's Omi beef has no blind spots whatsoever. The consommé made from shank and tail, with just a small amount of aromatic vegetables and salt, truly allows you to savor the essence of beef. The popular hamburger, made from 100% Omi beef formed into a donut shape, is baked in the oven with an egg dropped on top, allowing the runny yolk to soak into the meat juices, creating a perfect blend with the sauce. It's a dish that bursts with umami.
