From Halal Kobe Beef Steak to New Yakishabu Experience

For years, Kobe Beef Steak Sakura in Sannomiya has been a must-visit for Muslim customers seeking an authentic halal Kobe Beef experience. Known for its premium teppanyaki-style dining and commitment to sourcing halal-certified beef, the restaurant has built a reputation as one of the few places in Japan where guests can enjoy the world’s most famous beef without compromise.

As part of its halal Kobe Beef course, Kobe Beef Steak Sakura now includes its signature Yakishabu, made with halal-certified Kuroge Wagyu that highlights both the restaurant’s innovation and dedication to Muslim-friendly dining.

Yakishabu is a modern twist on Japan’s popular shabu-shabu. Instead of boiling thin slices of beef in hot broth like the common shabu-shabu, the meat is lightly grilled on a teppan (iron plate), then dipped into a savory sukiyaki-style sauce.

Yakishabu has long been a favorite among locals, but it was once difficult to serve in a halal-friendly way because sourcing sliced meat was a challenge. To solve this, the restaurant invested in a meat slicer dedicated exclusively to halal meat, enabling them to prepare yakishabu slices locally. Today, the restaurant is finally able to offer this dish to Muslim diners on the halal Kobe Beef course.

Thin slice of Kuroge Wagyu is softly grilled, rolled into delicate curls, and dipped into a savory sukiyaki-style sauce made with halal ingredients. The meat is tender yet flavorful, with a pleasant bite and chewy texture, while the small portion of greens wrapped inside adds a refreshing crunch.

Of course, the star of Kobe Beef Steak Sakura remains its halal Kobe Beef steak. The moment it arrives at your table, you know you are about to experience perfection. Guests can choose how the steak is cooked, but the most recommended style is medium rare.

At this level, the beef bursts with umami and sweetness, releasing an explosion of flavor with every bite. Depending on the cut, you’ll experience either a satisfying meaty texture or a melting, buttery richness that glides across the palate.
