Packed with delicious meat! The popular yakiniku restaurant's recommended "steak sandwich" (Kajicho, Kokurakita Ward, Kitakyushu City)

Hello! I'm ayu.latte, a writer who loves delicious meat.

This time, we will introduce you to a hugely popular yakiniku restaurant that opened 34 years ago this year and is no exaggeration to say that "everyone in Kokura knows about it."

Popular Yakiniku Ryuen Kokura Main Branch (Kajicho, Kokurakita Ward, Kitakyushu City) specializes in Kyushu-produced Kuroge Wagyu beef

"Yakiniku no Ryuen Kokura Main Branch" is located in Kajicho, Kokurakita Ward, Kitakyushu City, about a 3-minute walk from Kitakyushu Monorail Heiwadori Station, in front of "Mori Ogai's Former Residence." This popular restaurant is celebrating its 34th year this year.

In addition to the flagship store in Kokura, they also have a store in Nishinakasu, Fukuoka city, and are planning to open a store in Taiwan within the year.

The bronze statue of a cow in front of the store is the landmark of the Kokura main store.

There is also free parking for eight cars next to the store, making it convenient for those traveling by car.

The store's refrigerators are stocked with meat carefully selected by meat professionals.

All the beef is apparently Kuroge Wagyu beef from Kyushu. I'm excited!

The first floor has private sofa-style seating, and the second floor has tatami seating, with a maximum capacity of 160 people.

The amount of meat is amazing! Steak sandwich and steak curry

Yakiniku Ryuen has been expanding its takeout menu since the coronavirus outbreak.

In addition to meat, the menu is rich, including side salads and individual bento boxes.

The two most talked about dishes are these, which allow you to enjoy plenty of steak!

This is "THE STEAK CURRY" (100g - 1,200 yen, 200g - 1,800 yen) topped with a generous amount of hanging steak. The photo shows the 200g version.

The curry meat is also luxuriously made from 100% Kyushu Kuroge Wagyu beef! It's a little spicy, but the sweetness of the meat blends in to make it very rich and delicious.

The steak was tender and full of flavor! The garlic chips added a nice accent.

This is "THE STEAK SAND" (150g - 1,200 yen, 300g - 2,200 yen). The photo shows the 300g sandwich, which comes in a set of two.

A generous amount of beef hang steak is sandwiched between milk-rich bread from SHUN PAN LABO, a popular Kokura bakery.

The meat is super tender! It goes perfectly with the homemade steak sauce and honey mustard. The bread is also super tasty, and you'll finish it in no time.

I'm happy that I can now easily enjoy the taste of Ryuen's meat at home! Both dishes were very satisfying, with plenty of impact and volume.

Lunch is also worth checking out

This time I ordered take-out, but the lunch served in the restaurant is also very popular.

There are a whopping 20 different lunch options available only on weekdays!

Among them, there is the limited 10 meals "Ryuen Special Hamburger Steak Set Meal" (1,500 yen),

The "Aged Kuroge Wagyu Beef Bowl" (1,500 yen) sells out quickly, so we recommend making a reservation in advance.

The popular yakiniku lunch "Hanagogo Gozen" allows you to enjoy a little bit of each cut of beef. You can choose from three types: "Hana" (2,400 yen) made with Kyushu Kuroge Wagyu beef, "Miyabi" (3,600 yen) made with "Chikuho beef," said to be the oldest brand of beef in Fukuoka, and "Kiwame" (4,800 yen) made with Kyushu A5 Kuroge Wagyu beef.

It looks cute in the basket and would make a great little treat for your lunch.

Lunch is available on weekends and holidays. In addition to the "Hanagogo Gozen" mentioned above, there are also the "Ryuen Lunch Special Set" (2-3 servings, 7,200 yen), the "Family Yakiniku Set" (6,580 yen), and the "Upper Family Yakiniku Set" (9,800 yen). Don't miss out on the fact that all menus come with one soft drink.

At Yakiniku no Ryuen Kokura Main Branch, you can enjoy delicious, carefully selected meat for lunch or takeout.
