Signature Dishes

Grilled Aged Beef Bowl

The highlight of Yakitateno Karubi’s menu is undoubtedly the Grilled Aged Beef Bowl. Each day, their skilled chefs precisely slice fresh beef, which is then grilled on high heat upon order to enhance the natural flavors and aroma of the meat. The bowl is completed with a special sauce brewed from 20 carefully selected condiments, resulting in a perfect balance of sweetness, spiciness, and tanginess. The rice used is 100% domestic, ensuring an excellent pairing with both the meat and the sauce.

Yukgaejang Soup

Another must-try offering is the Yukgaejang Soup, prepared meticulously in-house. This spicy Korean soup is based on select beef, infused with a special broth, Korean miso, and gochujang. When served, the intense beef flavor comes alive, creating a deliciously savory experience that is both comforting and satisfying.

Yakitateno Karubi aims to make it easy for everyone to enjoy their specialties. Besides dining in, they also offer takeaway options, various delivery services, and in some locations, even drive-thru service. It’s noteworthy that a small container fee of 30 yen applies for takeout orders.

Menu Variety

The menu is diverse, catering to a wide array of tastes and preferences. Alongside the main offerings, customers can find cold noodles and salads, allowing for a well-rounded dining experience. Almost all menu items are available for takeout, making it a family-friendly option as well. There are meals tailored for kids, ensuring all guests from families to solo diners feel welcomed.
