Restaurant Details
An enticing traditional-meets-modern storefront exterior greets guests as they arrive at Yakiniku Manno Kitabatake in Osaka. Earthen floors lay before them, complemented by pillars crafted from ancient, well-worn wood. The atmosphere of this establishment evokes the relaxed feeling of returning to a home in the countryside. Private rooms, separated by beautifully detailed lattice doors, provide both solitude and a calming view of the garden.
Sure enough, the second store of the esteemed Yakiniku Manno does not come to play around. In fact, there is no room for compromise. Japanese black beef, or the kuroge wagyu, defines the menu and pioneers a new standard in the yakiniku battlefield. Through its strict criteria, the restaurant sources premium female cows meeting the “Manno” criteria: they must be fattened for at least 30 months and have not borne calves. Unlike some venues that age their beef for two months, this exclusive breed requires only about seven days to develop its full-bodied flavor. From farm to table, the wagyu is just 10 days old.
Counter seats encircle an open kitchen, giving diners a front-row view of skilled chefs crafting enticing dishes. The Manno wagyu can be enjoyed in three distinct ways: tare-marinated, salt-marinated and suyaki (not marinated). Diners can also indulge in the luxurious meat sushi, which showcases the precision of a master butcher.
Though it might be a standard course, it’s anything but ordinary. Leveraging close relationships with farmers across Japan, the restaurant features the exceptional “Premium Queen’s Beef” wagyu, a premier Japanese black beef. Each cut is meticulously prepared with millimeter-level precision to maximize flavor and quality. This course offers a perfect introduction to their remarkable beef, showcasing their expertise and dedication.
