Unveiling the New Wagyu Sukiyaki Restaurant: Sosiji
On March 20, 2026, a fresh culinary gem will open its doors in Nakameguro, Tokyo.
Sosiji, a brand-new sukiyaki restaurant specializing in A5 Wagyu beef, promises to deliver an exceptionally unique dining experience. Developed by FTG Company, which boasts an impressive portfolio of 129 restaurants around the globe, the new establishment will offer discerning diners the finest ingredients, combining taste with a rich history.
A Deep Connection to Quality and Craftsmanship
The name “Sosiji” is beloved by artists and calligraphers for its inherent energy and positive vibrations. It’s a name that evokes the spirit of culinary excellence, and the restaurant aims to embody this energy on every plate it serves. The new outlet in Nakameguro will be the fourth location for Sosiji, following the successful launch of its first establishment in Karuizawa, Nagano, in July 2025.
SOPHESTICATED INGREDIENTS: The Four Pillars of Sosiji
1.
Meat: Exquisite A5 Wagyu Beef
Sosiji prides itself on selecting the most outstanding A5-grade black-haired Wagyu, known for its intricate marbling and exceptional tenderness. The beef carries a BMS (Beef Marbling Standard) score of 10 or above, ensuring a melt-in-your-mouth experience that blends rich flavors with delightful sweetness.
2.
Rice: Specialty Blend from Yasuhiro Gihie
The rice served at Sosiji is a unique blend crafted specifically for sukiyaki. Sourced from a historic rice mill in Kyoto, this premium rice undergoes meticulous low-temperature processing, enhancing its natural sweetness and flavor to pair perfectly with the exquisite beef.
3.
Eggs: Special Farm-Raised Eggs
The restaurant features its own brand of free-range eggs, known for their vibrant yolks and firm whites. The hens, raised in a natural environment, produce eggs rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and providing both flavor and nutrition to complement the sukiyaki experience.
4.
Specialty Sukiyaki Pots: Nambu Ironware
Dishes are served in custom-made Nambu iron pots—traditional Japanese cookware that ensures even heat distribution and excellent heat retention. This craftsmanship allows for the enhancement of flavors, locking in the umami from both the beef and the fresh vegetables.
