Limited Edition Maguro Tempura Set Returns to Karayama After Phenomenal Success

Maguro Tempura Returns to Karayama!

Following last year's overwhelming response, the beloved "Maguro Tempura Set" will be available again starting August 22, 2025, at Karayama locations nationwide. This popular dish, which briefly sold out due to its popularity, is a must-try for seafood lovers and casual diners alike.

A Unique Dining Experience

Karayama is best known for its signature dish, the "Crispy Chicken Thigh" (Karitto Momo), which utilizes a secret marinade that draws out the umami of chicken without the use of garlic or ginger. Marinated overnight, the chicken is deep-fried to a glorious crisp, making it a satisfying element of the meal. The Maguro Tempura, on the other hand, offers a completely different experience. When combined in a set, diners will enjoy delightful contrasts between the textures and flavors of the dishes.

The tempura made from carefully selected tuna is lightly battered for a crunchy texture that melts in your mouth. This dish is not only delicious on its own but can also be enhanced with soy sauce, grated daikon, and wasabi, allowing for a versatile tasting experience that pairs beautifully with rice.

Pre-Order Available Online

For those who wish to skip the wait, select Karayama locations will offer online pre-ordering and payment. The Maguro Tempura Set, which consists of 4 pieces of tuna tempura alongside 2 pieces of crispy chicken, can be enjoyed both in-store and as a takeout option. The ease of online ordering streamlines the process, allowing you to enjoy this delicious meal with minimal wait time.
