1. Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu Shinjuku Otakibashi-dori
The first restaurant we would like to introduce is “Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu Shinjuku Otakibashi-dori”, a famous beef cutlet specialty shop originating from Kyoto. This renowned shop has its main store located in Pontocho, a district known for its many famous establishments in Kyoto. The interior, featuring a white wooden counter, is designed with a concept of a traditional Japanese cuisine restaurant, exuding a sense of Japanese aesthetics.
Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu’s beef cutlets are authentic, made from a single piece of meat carefully selected for each meat part. You can choose from a variety of cuts, including sirloin, loin, fillet, and tongue. The beef cutlet, which allows you to feel the full flavor of the meat, is served with wasabi and dashi soy sauce, which is the Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu style.
Our recommended menu is the “Kuroge Wagyu Sirloin Cutlet Set”.
Kyoto Katsugyu’s recommended menu item is the “Kuroge Wagyu Sirloin Cutlet Set,” which boasts the fine texture of marbled Wagyu beef. You can fully enjoy the sweetness of the fat, rich beef flavor, and melt-in-your-mouth tenderness that only Wagyu beef can offer.
Another charm of Kyoto Katsugyu is that it can be eaten in a variety of ways. A wide variety of condiments and dipping sauces, such as dashi soy sauce, sansho salt, and Gyukatsu sauce, enhance the flavor of the Gyukatsu even further. We recommend the first bite with a generous amount of wasabi and dashi soy sauce. From the second bite, add your favorite condiments and enjoy the Gyukatsu to your heart’s content. Enjoy the Gyukatsu in a variety of ways until the very last bite.
