About this place
The beef-tongue set meals let you choose between thick and thin cuts, each offering a different kind of bite. The thin-cut tongue is served with plenty of spring onions and lemon, while the limited-quantity thick-cut “upper” option is grilled over binchotan charcoal and uses a tender cut from the base of the tongue. One diner who tried the thick-cut set meal found the “upper” particularly tender, while the regular thick cut had a satisfying chew. For lunch, you can make beef tongue the centrepiece with a set meal or opt for a beef-tongue bowl topped with specially seasoned spring onions.
Beef-tongue menchi-katsu is worth considering if you want to try something beyond the grilled tongue. A diner who ordered it for dinner remarked on its juicy filling. It is available as part of a set meal or as a two-piece à la carte order. Other options include a grilled beef skirt steak set meal and a tail-ramen set served with an onigiri rice ball and salad. There are choices for a hearty meat-focused meal as well as for trying something a little different.
For a meal of small bites and drinks, there is also an evening set pairing grilled beef tongue with a small side dish and a drink. The daytime drinks menu lists Karatsu lemon sour, Yame tea highballs and draft beer, among other options, and small plates are available too. At Gyutan-yaki Nodanik(u) in Hakozaki 1-chome, there are options for a set-meal lunch or an evening meal centred on beef tongue.
