A crowd fave here is their Yuzu Foie Gras Wagyu Beef (from $30.90++), where marbled cuts of Wagyu steak come served with a slab of seared foie gras dressed with yuzu zest to cut through the fat. Each portion comes with a runny onsen egg as well, to make each bite all that more creamy. If you don’t eat beef, there’s also a variety of butadon and seafood donburi bowls, including chirashi that you can order.
