ChefKentaro Nakahara: Continuously Facing Meat with Sincerity

Born in 1976 and originally from Tokyo. At the age of 27, he took over his wife's family's yakiniku restaurant, "Sumibiyaki Shichirin," in Minowa, and learned meat procurement and cooking entirely on his own, despite having no prior experience. He successfully transformed it into a popular establishment. In 2014, with the move to Ichigaya, the restaurant's name was changed to "Sumibiyaki Nakahara." Since then, he has continued to revolutionize the yakiniku industry by opening "Henry's Burger" in Daikanyama and Akihabara, among other ventures.

Food The Ultimate Wagyu: Savor the "Phantom Tongue" in a Supreme Course

We offer the finest wagyu beef sourced without brand restrictions, cutting and serving only the most delicious parts of each cut. The "phantom tongue," included in the course, is a specialty that truly lives up to its name, allowing you to savor the rare cuts of black-haired wagyu. The "sirloin," taken from heifers that have been raised for a long time, is characterized by its light texture created by thin slicing. We want you to fully enjoy the inherent firmness of the meat and its high-quality fat.

SpaceA Stylish Space with a Panoramic View of Tokyo's Nightscape

Upon exiting Ichigaya Station and climbing the slope towards Kojimachi Station, you will find "GEMS Ichigaya." On the top floor is "Sumibiyaki Nakahara." As you step out of the elevator, you are greeted by a stylish space adorned with traditional Japanese decor, and from the large windows, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the night skyline of Tokyo. The interior features counter seats and table seating in an open kitchen layout, allowing you to see the kitchen from anywhere in the restaurant.
