Located in the area south of the Imperial Palace, just a 2-minute walk from Marutacho Station, is the newly opened private room space called Ban, which opened on July 22nd of this year. The elegant and luxurious facade exudes a refined atmosphere, offering a solemn ambiance while allowing guests to escape the hustle and bustle of the city center, creating a hidden gem-like location that ignites curiosity. The entrance features a wooden carving of a cow motif and other furnishings that exude a sense of weight and warmth, with cute cow-shaped key holders in the shoeboxes adding a charming touch. The entire seating area consists of sunken kotatsu-style private rooms, creating a nostalgic and extraordinary atmosphere with a comfortable tension. The amber lighting at each table creates a relaxed and leisurely atmosphere, allowing guests to forget about the hustle and bustle of the city. With a large number of staff members, each guest is carefully attended to, and orders can be placed stress-free using touch panels, providing a comfortable environment. The luxury space also includes a VIP room with soundproofing at the end, allowing guests to relax even more without worrying about the eyes of others. One of the highlights of this restaurant is that they purchase whole cows from Oita Prefecture to serve Bungo beef. Known for its strong umami flavor and low risk of causing indigestion, this beef pairs perfectly with the meticulously blended rice, which is adjusted seasonally by a rice master to complement the meat at Ban. The entertainment-style meat dishes served here are also a topic of conversation. Enjoy the Ban course, which includes 18 carefully selected items, including the famous seared yukhoe or seared sushi, various rare cuts, and the signature seared hormone dish. The seared yukhoe, thinly sliced sirloin, is seared right in front of guests and wrapped in egg yolk, creating a delightful experience of umami and sweetness. The signature seared hormone dish is cooked in a special ceramic dish that steams the hormone without losing its texture, creating a unique dining experience. The signature freshly cooked Gin Shari rice, using a blend of rice selected by a 5-star rice master, provides a fragrant and delicious experience. The attention to detail in the presentation, cutlery, and more, along with the professional and passionate staff, adds to the overall high-quality and enjoyable dining experience. The private and cozy atmosphere, combined with the high-quality meat, entertainment value, and attention to detail, make Ban a perfect place for various occasions, from business dinners to dates. The layout ensures social distancing and a comfortable dining experience, allowing guests to enjoy their meal without worrying about smoke or other distractions. Experience a unique style of yakiniku in Kyoto, where tradition meets innovation, and indulge in high-quality meat, drinks, and a serene atmosphere.

I went to YOROZU Man, a yakiniku restaurant in Kyoto that I love, where you can enjoy a relaxing private room with a sunken kotatsu table ☺️ I had the Banfuku course (6,589 yen) which included: Napa cabbage kimchi, cucumber kimchi, daikon radish kimchi, bean sprout namul, unlimited cabbage, demon grated daikon, chogeri salad, seared yukhoe or seared sushi, thick-cut Chateaubriand, today's selected rare cuts, 4 types of Japanese harami, seared hormone, silver tongue, large fatty brisket, silver tongue soup, and ice cream. The meat was so tender and delicious ☺️❤️ The seared yukhoe and seared sushi that you can sear with a burner were visually appealing and the thick-cut Chateaubriand and seared hormone were all incredibly delicious ☺️❤️ The silver tongue was also delicious as it was cooked after we arrived ☺️❤️ The demon grated daikon paired well with the meat ☺️❤️ It was so delicious to have sukiyaki as well, it was amazing twice ❤️ Ordering is done through a touch panel which is convenient, and there were vanilla and matcha ice cream options ☺️❤️ The antique plates and dishes were also very lovely ☺️❤️

The Yukhoe was incredibly delicious, possibly the best I've ever had. I was truly impressed by how good it was. The part that was cooked was too close to my face and hot, but the other meats didn't leave as much of an impression. I highly recommend trying the Yukhoe, it's really delicious.

The staff were mostly young and refreshing, and very polite. We were able to relax in a private room. The rare meat was so tender and melted in my mouth... I ate a lot but didn't feel heavy or bloated, I felt refreshed. The rice was cooked in a pot and was delicious. And the unique way of eating the motsu (offal) was incredibly tasty. I will definitely bring my family here next time!

I had the Manpuku course at the newly renovated private room yakiniku restaurant, Man. It included napa cabbage, cucumber, daikon radish kimchi, bean sprout namul, unlimited cabbage, daikon oroshi, cholegi salad, seared yukhoe or seared sushi, thick-cut chateaubriand, rare cuts of meat, Japanese harami, seared hormone, special sukiyaki loin, large toro, large kalbi, and soup. Even though I was already really full, I couldn't resist the delicious rice cooked in the pot. We enjoyed our meal in a semi-private sunken kotatsu room. They also have rooms with karaoke available.

The private room had a calm atmosphere, and it seemed like it would be fine to bring children. The thick-cut Chateaubriand was amazing!

I was able to relax in a private room. The meat was also very delicious! I think it's a great place for couples to come!
