Supreme Meat, Blissful Moments
The night view of Umeda,
with the finest Japanese Black Wagyu.
"Yakiniku no Gyuta Honjin"
Savor authentic Japanese Black Wagyu from a prime seat overlooking the glittering streets of Umeda, Osaka.
What we at Honjin have always upheld is
uncompromising quality made possible only because we are run directly by a beef wholesaler, and a yakiniku experience full of surprises.
To serve every cut at its very best, we never slice meat in advance.
Only after you order does our craftsman read each cut's character and slice it carefully, piece by piece, before bringing it to your table.
To meet the perfectly grilled meat,
our signature rice, cooked fluffy and glossy in the traditional 'okudo-san' stove in our restaurant.
The rich sweetness of the meat, our secret sauce, and freshly cooked rice weave together
a trinity of flavor that,
together with our famous 'Treasure Box of Select Wagyu' that draws cheers the moment it arrives,
creates a moment of pure bliss.
Yakiniku is not just about filling your stomach; what matters is who you share it with and how you spend the time.
A happy moment when you and your loved ones say 'let's come again' —
enjoy it to your heart's content with the beautiful night view.

And yet, we never compromise on the quality of the meat.
After you order, our craftsman carefully cuts each slice,
delivering peak freshness and flavor straight to you.

The craftsman's skill captures freshness at the moment of cutting
Sourced as only a wholesaler-run restaurant can,
Japanese Black Wagyu of assured quality.
To serve this fine ingredient at its most delicious.
At Honjin, to bring out the meat’s freshness to the fullest,
we never slice in advance;
our craftsman slices each order on the spot.
Knife work attuned to the delicate texture of each cut
draws out the Wagyu’s rich umami and melt-in-the-mouth tenderness to the fullest,
making a special yakiniku even richer.
Supreme Wagyu selection, possible only because we are run by a wholesaler
Great yakiniku begins with a discerning eye and careful sourcing. Drawing on our strength as a wholesaler-run restaurant, Honjin selects only Japanese Black Wagyu from across Japan whose meat and fat are in perfect balance. Delivering the true umami and depth of premium Wagyu at overwhelming value — that is the starting point of Honjin's yakiniku.
House-made sauces that elevate the meat, and the craftsman's hand-massaging technique
To bring the flavor of carefully selected Japanese Black wagyu into full bloom, we pour our care into every last drop of sauce. Our house-made dipping sauce is a rich soy-based blend with apple and other fruit that brings out the meat's flavor. Our marinades showcase the craftsman's skill: a dedicated harami sauce, miso sauce for offal, salt sauce and more, each blended for its cut and hand-massaged into the meat to order. Seasoned to perfection, Honjin's yakiniku is at its most tender and juicy the moment it comes off the grill. Enjoy the exquisite harmony of sauce and meat.
The craftsman's skill that preserves freshness — the true value of cutting to order
Because we want you to enjoy delicious meat at its freshest, Honjin never slices in advance. After you order, our craftsman reads the grain and texture of each cut and slices it carefully on the spot, piece by piece, bringing the finest melt and rich aroma of the freshly cut meat straight to your table.
Freshly cooked 'gin-shari' rice that brings out the umami to the fullest
Superb meat deserves an equally superb partner. To further elevate the meat, Honjin makes no compromise in selecting and cooking its rice. Our signature rice, cooked fluffy and glossy, harmonizes beautifully with the rich, sweet fat of perfectly grilled Japanese Black Wagyu for a moment of pure bliss.
