The Yurakucho store is a chic, adult space that stimulates the senses. The live performance allows you to enjoy charcoal grilling, slicing, and plating from the counter seats!
Gyutan no Lemon, a thick-sliced beef tongue specialty store run by Gyutan no Lemon Co., Ltd., is a specialty store that serves charcoal-grilled, extra-thickly cut beef tongue with the concept of "thickly cut beef tongue is delicious!" The biggest attraction is the generous use of the rare "tongue base" part.
Entrance to "Gyutan no Lemon Yurakucho Branch"
The long-awaited fourth store, "Gyutan no Lemon Yurakucho Store", will have its grand opening on Wednesday, May 14, 2025. The store is conveniently located just a five-minute walk from JR Yurakucho Station.
The Yurakucho store is characterized by a more chic and luxurious design than previous stores. The interior is designed with only 16 seats at a "J-shaped" counter, so you can experience the live charcoal grilling from every seat. You can also enjoy the performance of cutting and plating the beef tongue right in front of you, so you can enjoy the finest beef tongue with your eyes, ears, and smells.
The menu offers two main set meals: the "KIWAMI" set, where you can enjoy our specialty "Kiwami" steak, made from thickly sliced rare "tongue root", and the luxurious "BEEF TRIO" set, where you can taste three types of meat including the "Kiwami" steak.

Inside "Gyutan no Lemon Yurakucho Branch"
・Which one should I choose? The "KIWAMI" where you can enjoy our specialty thick-sliced beef tongue, or the extravagant "BEEF TRIO" — both special sets are so appealing that it's hard to choose!
[Beef Tongue Lemon] Our proud specialty, the "Kiwami" steak, is made with a generous amount of the rarest part of beef tongue, the "tongue root." It is cut into super thick slices and carefully grilled by a skilled chef over high-quality binchotan charcoal.
Beef tongue is divided into three parts: tongue base, tongue middle, tongue tip, and tongue bottom, and is a rare cut that can only be obtained from about 1kg of one cow. Among these, tongue base is the highest quality cut with rich marbling and a delicate texture, and only 20% of the total beef tongue is obtained.
The surface is grilled at a high temperature until fragrant, and then the inside is carefully cooked through to create a moist, tender and juicy finish. You can enjoy the overwhelming presence that comes from being thickly sliced, the beautiful rareness, the weight you can feel with your chopsticks, and the pleasant elasticity and flavor.
At the Yurakucho store, we offer two sets: the "KIWAMI" set, which allows you to fully enjoy this "Kiwami" steak, and the luxurious "BEEF TRIO" set, which includes an assortment of three types of charcoal-grilled dishes.
・KIWAMI (3,600 yen)
A set of "Kiwami" steaks made from the rare tongue cut, generously cut into extra thick slices and slowly grilled over charcoal.
・BEEF TRIO (4,500 yen)
A luxurious set of three charcoal-grilled dishes: three slices of "Kiwami" steak, grilled beef tongue, and A5 Wagyu beef ribs.
The "Grilled Beef Tongue" in the "BEEF TRIO" set is a masterpiece made by marinating the tongue in shio-koji overnight and grilling it over charcoal until it becomes fragrant. With just the right amount of sweet and salty, the condensed flavor of the beef tongue spreads with every bite, making it an addictively delicious dish that will have you coming back for more. The set also includes the carefully selected "A5 Wagyu Kalbi." With fine marbling and the rich flavor of the meat itself, the fragrant taste of the charcoal grilling further enhances the flavor.
The "BEEF TRIO" set is a luxurious special set that allows you to enjoy three different types of charcoal-grilled meat with different meat textures and flavors all at once.
*Both sets come with salad, beef tongue soup, grated yam, beef tongue miso, beef tongue curry, and rice cooked in a hagama pot.
*All prices include tax.
・Enjoy the taste of beef tongue. The Yurakucho store has a wide variety of a la carte dishes! The must-try is the "Grilled Beef Tongue with Salt and Green Onions"
The Yurakucho store also offers a lineup of a la carte dishes, allowing you to enjoy beef tongue to your heart's content.
Among the dishes, the one we especially recommend is the "Grilled Beef Tongue with Salt and Green Onions." The combination of green onions and tongue is a classic when it comes to beef tongue dishes, but the [Beef Tongue Lemon] offers a slightly different flavor. The chewy beef tongue and crunchy chopped green onion sauce have a refreshing aftertaste and a juicy flavor that perfectly harmonizes to make you want to take another bite. It's a great dish to go with alcohol or as a side dish with rice.
You can also add on the A5 Kuroge Wagyu Beef Kalbi and A5 Kuroge Wagyu Beef Zabuton Sukiyaki Style as individual items.

・A full lineup of excellent supporting dishes that complement the main dish! The carefully selected set menu is the strength of [Gyutan no Lemon]
The reason why [Beef Tongue Lemon] is so popular is not only the deliciousness of the thickly sliced beef tongue, but also the excellent supporting ingredients that complement the main dish. With the utmost attention paid to even the rice and small dishes, you can enjoy it as the "ultimate set meal." Each dish enhances the perfection of the set meal by serving as an excellent supporting ingredient that complements the main dish.
The rice is made by Kyoto's long-established rice store, Hachidaime Gihei, and is a blend of carefully selected rice according to the season. The "Hagama Cooked Rice" is cooked in a large Hagama pot, which gives it a fluffy, grainy texture and a natural sweetness that is exceptional. In addition, the "Ikura no Shi" customization, which is made by topping it with extra-thick eggs (16th generation bright red eggs from Sakamoto Poultry in Yomota Village, Aomori Prefecture) and carefully selected salmon roe, is also very popular.

The rich beef tongue curry, made by slowly simmering the tongue base, and the soup infused with the flavor of beef bones go perfectly with the thick-sliced beef tongue.
