Fussa, Tokyo, Japan｜Kobe Steak House

Went here for an anniversary lunch with my wife. We called ahead of time to reserve, and they allowed us in 45 mins before closing. The atmosphere was good during lunch, and it wasn't busy. The place was spotless; the server was kind and attentive, the food was delicious, and the price was reasonable. I enjoyed the bread and butter. Didn't have that kind of soft bread before. The steak was delicious! I ordered a medium rare, and it was soft in the mouth that I didn't struggle to chew. Will come back again next time!

Updated: I’ve seen several posts of folks looking for Kobe beef locally, and I’ve always been told true Kobe could not be found near base. **神戸ステーキハウス aka Kobe Steakhouse doesn’t serve Kobe, however, it does serve premium, highest quality A5 ranking beef categorized as kuroge beef. Kobe itself falls within this same A5 ranking. The restaurant decor is traditional 1972, unchanged, however, the steak is excellent. We decided to splurge on the Chateaubriand filet, and were not disappointed. You could cut it with a butter knife! Steak is prepared over a charcoal grill. Prices range from ¥4000 - ¥21000 per set depending on the cut! Restaurant is located near the supply gate on Route 16. Check it out, is also open for lunch. Owner runs the front of the house and is very attentive.

First time in Japan and I've heard so much about how amazing Wagyu beef is and I'll tell you I was not disappointed. So I tried the A5 grade steak. I seen the price and was a bit hesitant on getting it but I realized I'll never get an opportunity to try this again. The whole 3 course meal was great. The baked potatoe was cooked where it wasnt mush but had a soft firmness to it. The corn was an amazing complimentary taste to the steak. The steak was so soft yet not chewy it almost just melts in your mouth like a piece of cotton candy. I was thoroughly impressed, only steak that I've had that compares is The Fiorentina steak in Florence Italy and this one beats it in overall flavour. But not in cost for the meal.
