神戸牛の中でも賞を授賞した牛の肉を出す、カウンター8席程の窓のない静かな大人の空間。
平成29年8月15日の初めての神戸観光の折りに昼に飛び込みで入れたが、予約するのが望ましい。
大将から特選牛サーロインとフィレを薦められ、それに従う。特選サーロインは恐ろしく脂が甘い。これと比べると、特選フィレとはいえ(値段はむしろ高いのだが)平凡に感じてしまった。大将も「フィレはまあ旨いので、特に脂の甘さを味わって欲しいから」と特選サーロインをまず薦めてくる。個人的には、特選サーロインに絞るか、あとは味は劣るかもしれないけど(特選牛の)イチボやランプを出して食感で比較するのが楽しいと思った。後者は扱ってないから無いものねだりだが。このことから、あえて☆を一つ減らした次第だ。
因みに、サーロインの三倍はする特選牛のシャトーブリアンはどんなものだろ? 次は、財布が空になる覚悟で食べてみようか(^O^)
大将の接客も良く、前述のように居心地のよい大人の空間。お盆だったからか、家族連れが間違えて入店していたけど、居心地が悪そうだった。
予算は二人で3万程度からと安くはないけど、その価値はある。
無論、普通の神戸牛も扱っているから、或いは二人で1万位に抑えることも出来ようが、ここはやはり思い切って特選牛を選びたい。散財する価値は十分にあると思う。

A quiet space for adults with about 8 counter seats and no windows, serving meat from award-winning Kobe beef.
I popped in at noon on August 15, 2017, when I was sightseeing in Kobe for the first time, but it's best to make a reservation.
The general recommends the specially selected beef sirloin and fillet, which I follow. The specially selected sirloin is extremely fatty and sweet. Compared to this, even though it was a specially selected fillet (although the price was rather high), it felt ordinary. The owner recommends the special sirloin first, saying, ``The fillet is delicious, so I especially want you to taste the sweetness of the fat.'' Personally, I thought it would be fun to focus on the specially selected sirloin, or even though the taste might be inferior, Ichibo and rump (of the specially selected beef) and compare the textures. I don't carry the latter, so I'm begging for something I don't have. For this reason, I purposely reduced the number of stars by one.
By the way, what kind of chateaubriand, a specially selected beef that costs three times as much as sirloin? Next time, I'll try eating it with the intention of emptying my wallet (^O^)
The general's customer service is good, and as mentioned above, it's a comfortable space for adults. Perhaps because it was Obon, a family came in by mistake, but they looked uncomfortable.
The budget isn't cheap, starting at around 30,000 yen for two people, but it's worth it.
Of course, they also serve regular Kobe beef, or the two of us could probably keep the price down to around 10,000, but I'd still like to take the plunge and choose specially selected beef. I think it's well worth the splurge.
