A real highlight of our time in Kansai! We made an advance reservation for lunch here on a weekday. Definitely do the garlic fried rice upgrade. Fukujo sake recommendation also paired perfectly with the beef. Entire meal was phenomenal, well-paced, and one of the chefs (Keiji) was really friendly and welcoming and spoke great english (way better than our Japanese for sure). Absolutely loved the recommended sirloin as well as the marbled beef. 120g meat was just right per person. Vegetables and dessert also all extremely fresh and impeccably prepared. We were the only three in the 10 seat restaurant and the intimate experience was so so delightful. Money well spent.
