Japanese steakhouse and robata grill in Williamsburg where dry-aged porterhouse, wagyu cuts, and charcoal-grilled meats are the main event. Locals treat it as the neighborhood’s steak destination when they want serious beef with Japanese technique, cocktails, and a moody room rather than a traditional American chophouse.
Must-Try Dishes: 30-Day Jyukusei Porterhouse Steak, Japanese Wagyu Truffle Roll, Wagyu Yukke Tartare

What makes it special: Japanese robata grilling and long dry-aging turn steakhouse standards into charcoal-driven showpieces.
Who should go: Steak-focused diners who want Japanese technique and atmosphere.
When to visit: Prime-time dinner or late evening when the room feels buzzy.
What to order: 30-day dry-aged porterhouse, wagyu truffle roll, yuzu-accented salad.
Insider tip: Ask about off-menu or limited wagyu cuts—regulars often snag the best pieces first.
