Royal Mouriya

This steak restaurant in Kobe is the perfect place to try the famous local Kobe beef in style. Conveniently located next to Kobe-Sannomiya Station, Royal Mouriya is one of three restaurants in the area run by the same wagyu beef company, and (as the first part of the name suggests) it’s their most elegant. In dignified and mature surroundings, they serve A5 grade wagyu beef with gorgeous marbling which makes the meat melt apart in your mouth. It’s all cooked teppanyaki style — on an iron griddle right in front of you — so you can savor the sights, sounds, and smells before each dish. The meal comes with soup, salad, and dessert, and a good selection of alcohol on offer to go along with it. On the side of your delicious wagyu beef cuts, you can also enjoy pan-seared vegetables such as garlic chips, mushrooms, and eggplant. An engaging, multi-sensory dining experience to remember, Royal Mouriya is a fantastic place to sample Kobe’s most famous food.
