Known forgyukatsuqueuebudgetmust-try Tokyo dish
Gyukatsu Motomura popularized the Tokyo gyukatsu (breaded, lightly fried beef cutlet) trend and remains the gold standard — the beef is served rare and you finish it on a personal stone grill at your table. The set meal with barley rice, cabbage, and dipping sauces is deeply satisfying and costs under ¥2,000. Queues are long at peak hours; the Shibuya branch is the most central.
