"Gyuya Tanbei" is an authentic beef tongue restaurant that is easy for families to enjoy. Founded in 2000 in Tomiya City, Miyagi Prefecture, it has since become a local favorite where diners can casually enjoy authentic beef tongue. The restaurant carefully selects branded beef tongue cuts that are best suited to each cooking method.

The signature dish at "Gyuya Tanbei" is the "Original Beef Tongue Pot Rice." It is known for its low fat content and pleasantly firm texture. Because it uses a rare cut that can only be taken in small amounts from a single beef tongue, it is available in limited quantities. At dinner, the menu also features à la carte dishes such as "Beef Tongue Sausage" and "Beef Tongue Tsukune," perfect as appetizers with drinks. For lunch, there is the "Lunch Grilled Beef Tongue Set Meal." You can enjoy both grilled and stewed beef tongue at the same time.

In addition to counter and table seating, the restaurant also has raised seating areas. There are tatami seating areas as well, making it easy to visit with children. It is also located Approx. 15 minutes by car from Sekisui Heim Super Arena, making it a convenient stop before or after a game or event.
