FAQ

Does Asakusa Gyukatsu take reservations?
No — it's walk-in only, first come, first served, regardless of what a booking link elsewhere might suggest. Expect a short wait at lunch and dinner peaks.
How is the beef cutlet at Asakusa Gyukatsu cooked?
It arrives barely cooked with a blush of pink at the center. You slice it into strips and finish cooking each piece yourself on a small sizzling stone at the table, from rare to fully done.
