Introduction
Omi Kaneyasu is a restaurant directly operated by the long-established butcher shop “Meat Kaneyasu” in Omihachiman, Shiga. It’s famous for its luxurious dishes using premium Omi beef. Their signature item, the “Gokujo Yakiniku Don” (Premium Grilled Beef Bowl), features top-grade A5-ranked black wagyu beef, specially selected from female cattle for superior tenderness and fat quality. Before cooking, the owner shows you the raw meat and its certificate, offering peace of mind. Priced at ¥3,500 for the bowl alone or ¥4,000 as a set meal (with tofu, pickles, and miso soup), it’s a well-balanced and rich culinary experience. The sweet and savory sauce enhances the melt-in-your-mouth beef, delivering a perfect harmony of flavor and texture.
