5 to try: Rare Tokyo burgers, part 4

Gotanda: Meat Yazawa

Meat Yazawa is a wagyu beef specialist, using premium A5 grade Kuroge-wagyu for their hamburgs and steaks. The quality of the meat is exceptional and the meals are incredibly satisfying. There is also an excellent selection of sophisticated side dishes on the menu. You can expect to pay a little more than other restaurants, but it’s worth it. The Kuroge-wagyu 100 per cent fresh hamburg is seasoned perfectly and tastes delicious just as it is. To get to the restaurant, walk up from Gotanda Station and turn right just before the Meguro River. Keep walking and you’ll see it on the right. It’s not possible to make reservations so it’s not unusual to see long lines of hungry customers from the surrounding office buildings on weekdays.
