Best Beef Tongue Restaurant - Sendai Gyutan Ara

Restaurant Review by T. Y.

I love to eat beef tongue dishes, so I have eaten beef tongue many times at various places. I will introduce the most recommended restaurant among them. The restaurant's name is Sendai Gyutan Ara (仙台牛たん 荒). This restaurant specialize in beef tongue dishes. It’s located at Haneda Airport's Domestic Terminal 2. It's in the underground, and you can enjoy beef tongue dishes while waiting before your trip.

Sendai Gyutan Ara has a relaxed atmosphere, and you can enjoy a leisurely meal. The most recommended set is “beef tongue plate”. This set includes grilled beef tongue, barley rice, tororo (grated yam potato) and tail soup. And you can a free extra serving of barley rice. The beef tongue plate is 2484 yen tax included. I think the price is little high, but it includes an airport charge, so I don’t care too much. Also, the grilled tongue is a juicy thick slice and the taste is awesome. It’s so delicious when you eat it with wasabi and nanban miso. In addition, the restaurant has some alcohol drinks. Especially, they advertise rare Japanese whiskey (Hakushu, Yamazaki, Hibiki), all off which go well with beef tongue dishes.

Anyway, beef tongue of “Sendai Gyutan Ara” is so delicious that you may not want to eat at other beef tongue restaurants. Please try it. Also, when you go there, I may welcome you.
