I visited around noon and the first floor was full, so I went to the second floor. I was happy to see that they had private rooms. About 10 years ago, I had sukiyaki here, so this time I ordered the "Hamburger Set" for 1150 yen. The hamburger was large and soft, and quite light. Thank you for the meal!

I visited this restaurant during a business trip to Fukuchiyama. It seems to be a special place for the locals to visit with their families on special occasions or events. The owner, known as "Iron Man" Kabuto, sources high-quality meat from a butcher in Himeji, offering it at a reasonable price. The restaurant has traditional Japanese rooms with tatami mats and sunken kotatsu tables, creating a relaxed atmosphere for enjoying charcoal-grilled barbecue. The fresh meat with beautiful marbling is seared over charcoal and can be enjoyed with a special ponzu sauce or simply with salt. The ponzu sauce is not too sour or citrusy, enhancing the flavor of the meat while refreshing the palate. I wanted to buy some of their ponzu sauce to take home, but unfortunately, it was not for sale. The recommended way to enjoy the meat is to alternate between salt and ponzu sauce. Thank you for the enjoyable conversation, and thank you for the delicious meal.

I tried the limited-time special beef sukiyaki set meal by Sota Fujii. The meal looked just like the menu photo and tasted great with its rich flavor. The meat was tender and easy to eat. The seared sashimi-style dish was delicious, especially when seared for just one second. I would love to try it a la carte next time.

Located just a short walk from Fukuchiyama Station, this restaurant specializes in meat dishes such as shabu-shabu and sukiyaki. I visited during lunchtime on a weekday and the place was almost full, mostly with locals. The lunch menu prices are a bit on the higher side. I ordered the cheapest option, the hamburger steak set. The dish arrived in about 10 minutes, with a large hamburger steak covered in plenty of sauce. The hamburger steak was fluffy and didn't have a strong meaty texture. Personally, I prefer hamburger steaks with a more meaty texture. The set came with rice, miso soup, salad, and pickles, with a generous portion of rice that was quite satisfying to eat.

I went to this restaurant for the first time during lunch, and it was crowded with customers as you need to make a reservation to get in. The sukiyaki was very delicious, and they offer unlimited rice refills. I ordered the large portion of sukiyaki meat, but they brought the regular portion instead. Despite the mistake, I still feel like coming back to this restaurant.

Fukuchiyama Castle is amazing! The parking lot is free! I came to Fukuchiyama Food Log to see it, and I made a reservation before leaving the castle, which was a good idea. I thought the hamburger lunch would take a long time, but I didn't even have time to play a game on my phone before it arrived. It was better than Ishii's hamburger, so I guess that's a good level. I wonder if they just microwaved something from the fridge... Anyway, it was delicious!

I've always wanted to come to this restaurant, but it's always crowded so I couldn't make it. Today, I went aiming for the opening. Sukiyaki set meal with extra meat for 1650 yen! The meat was so delicious, I would love to come for lunch during work at this price. But it feels like I can't enter alone.

A hidden gem of a restaurant, the lunch time beef bowl is a must-try when in Fukuchiyama. However, the real star is the dinner menu! Their specialty combo of grilled and sukiyaki beef may be a bit pricey, but it never fails to impress. They seem to source high-quality beef depending on the day, and if you ask, they'll tell you where it's from. The atmosphere is great, making it perfect for special occasions.

Special course: Banquet 8,800 yen (simmered shigure, roast beef, beef sashimi-style, cold shabu-shabu, grilled steak, rice, sherbet) Finally, a night at Takeshita♪ (The grilled steak in the photo is enough for 3 people) The rumors were true about the surprisingly good quality meat at this price! The meat sashimi-style is lightly seared and simply melts in your mouth, leaving a sweet and luxurious fatty aftertaste. The grilled steak includes fillet, sirloin, and ribeye (forgot to take a photo, but it also comes with a generous portion of grilled vegetables). The staff will teach you how to grill the meat at first. The meat is well-marbled with a generous amount of fat, but it is elegant and the fat melts away nicely on the grill. The shiitake mushrooms were also delicious. Overall, it was a very satisfying and cost-effective meat restaurant experience!

I came to Takashita in Fukuchiyama for a meal. Sukiyaki seems to be their specialty. They also have hamburg steak. I went during lunchtime and it was very popular. The service was quick and the food was served promptly. The meat was really delicious and the sauce was tasty. The hamburg steak was very tender and went well with the rice. The portion size was great and it was all under 2000 yen, so I felt it was a good deal. Thank you for the meal!

From Fukuchiyama Station, head west (turn right) at the first intersection right by the south exit, then turn south (left) at the next intersection (where there is a Gyomu Super and a Yamada Denki store) to enter Route 9. The restaurant is located on the right side just before the intersection. There is a parking lot in front of the restaurant that can fit 5-6 cars. Usually, the restaurant is packed during lunchtime, but it was quite empty this time, possibly due to the impact of COVID-19. As soon as you enter the restaurant, the staff will guide you to your seat. Although I didn't check all the seating options, it seems like there are semi-private booths separated by walls and private rooms that can be closed off with sliding doors. On this day, I was in the mood for sukiyaki, so I ordered the sukiyaki set meal (with extra meat). The food arrived after a short wait. It is served in an iron pot, but it is not bubbling. At first glance, you can see a lot of onions and leeks. When you separate the meat and vegetables, about half of it seems to be meat, which is quite a generous portion. The vegetables are predominantly onions (laughs). The quality of the meat is decent for the price. If you want to enjoy sukiyaki or shabu-shabu with better quality meat, I recommend choosing a different course where you can select the meat grade ranging from 3,000 to 14,000 yen. The taste of the sukiyaki is just right. It may taste a bit thin when using the egg. It's nice to have plenty of vegetables. While you might feel dissatisfied if there is too little meat, since about half of it is meat, I didn't feel dissatisfied. Overall, the portion size is quite large. I left about half of it and took the rest home in my own container. In general, I enjoyed the sukiyaki set meal. The regular size costs 1,265 yen, and the extra meat option costs 1,650 yen (tax included). I can't compare it to beef bowl chain restaurants since I haven't tried them, but if you're willing to pay a little extra for a better experience, this place might be a good choice. Thank you for the meal.

I came here after a long time. Just like last time, I had sukiyaki. The meat was beautiful. It was still delicious. However, maybe time has made my stomach weaker, as I felt a little bloated. It's sad. Maybe it's because I saw them put a lot of white sugar right in front of me. The staff were kind to children and seemed to have plenty of time, as they brought out various dishes. The fluffy hamburger without any feeling of a uniform made me even more full. Next time, I want to try the steak or shabu-shabu! Thank you for the meal.

The hamburger set at the yakiniku restaurant is a simple simmered hamburger that looks more basic than it appears. Next time, I want to try the meat bowl.

I found a delicious looking sukiyaki restaurant in Fukuchiyama while on a work trip. Without hesitation, I ordered the sukiyaki set meal for 1250 yen. It had been a while since I had sukiyaki, and it was delicious!

Beef sukiyaki set meal for 1260 yen is decent, nothing special.

The popular salted tongue was sold out, and among the popular sukiyaki set meals, I chose the refreshing lemon flavored one. It was very light and the taste of the meat was delicious. The rice was freshly cooked and hot, which also added to the satisfaction. ✨

I indulged in a luxurious meat meal from midday. A 3000 yen grilled course. The tenderness and flavor enhanced by salt and pepper were satisfying.

This time, I had sukiyaki! The meat was so delicious and I am full!

I was a little disappointed with the salted tongue for lunch. Next time, I will try the sukiyaki.

I went for lunch without hesitation because there was a lunch menu that was kind to the common people. I arrived a little after 11 o'clock, but the place was almost full, so I ended up sharing a table with other customers. I ordered the sukiyaki set meal, which costs 1050 yen including tax. It came in an individual iron pot with sukiyaki, along with salad, pickles, and rice. The sukiyaki on its own was quite strong in flavor, but dipping it in the egg balanced it out perfectly. The meat was incredibly tender and delicious, even soft enough for an elderly person without teeth to eat. There was a bit less Chinese cabbage and more onions (perhaps due to the season). The only downside was that there was some dust accumulated in the gap of the plastic board of the bill, but overall, it was a must-visit restaurant for meat lovers.
