About Gyushige
History of Gyushige
Gyushige opened its first restaurant in an old town of Fuchu, Tokyo in 1988.
Japan was in the midst of the bubble era in the late 80s and the trend was “the more expensive the better.”
Contrary to the trend, the founder, Masakazu Takada, strived to serve delicious beef at a reasonable price. That’s how Gyushige started.
Gyushige’s original concept was “to offer a Wagyu feast.” Wagyu was a luxury item which was rarely served at home. The founder wished for guests to enjoy delicious wagyu with their family and friends at Gyushige. Today, we continue to strive to offer such experiences at our restaurants.
Brand-new Experience for Meat Lovers
U.S. is one of the world-leading countries with beef consumption. Americans enjoy beef in a various ways from burgers at casual restaurants, steak at high-end restaurants to BBQ at home. Naturally, wagyu is well known among such meat lovers.
If you want to fully enjoy the taste of wagyu, we highly recommend to try it in “YAKINIKU.” Yakiniku may seem simple, but it is surprisingly profound. At Gyushige, carefully selected beef is cut to a precise thickness to bring out the most flavor and served with dipping sauce to compliment the beef.
Enjoy the brand-new Yakiniku experience at Gyushige.
We have introduced the authentic Yakiniku culture to the world. Today, there are total of 166 Gyushige restaurants in Japan and around the world.
Gyushige has offered simple yet carefully selected delicious yakiniku at a reasonable price since the opening in 1988.
