Find out what Steakhouse restaurants to try in Gifu. Gifu (岐阜市, Gifu-shi) is a city located in the south-central portion of Gifu Prefecture, Japan, and serves as the prefectural capital. The city has played an important role in Japan's history because of its location in the middle of the country. During the Sengoku period, various warlords, including Oda Nobunaga, used the area as a base in an attempt to unify and control Japan. Gifu continued to flourish even after Japan's unification as both an important shukuba along the Edo period Nakasendō and, later, as one of Japan's fashion centers. It has been designated a core city by the national government.

For foreign visitors, Teppanyaki usually is a great food experience, but culturally disappointing, as most Teppanyaki restaurants are western style places. Not so at Senryu. Here the major attraction is the setting, in an old Japanese house alongside Nagara river, with a view on Gifu castle and beautiful Japanese gardens. Food is served in individual Tatami rooms, fortunately with holes for your feet and cusions with backrests. More comfortale than sitting on chairs.Food is prepared in typical Teppanyaki style at your table in a set menu. The steak is from the region, Hida beef, no different in quality from the more famous Kobe beef. The way of preparation is a bit different though, placing a huge piece of extremely marbled Sirloin on a bed of garlic and fat, covering it with a lid and searing for a while, before carving the steak up and grilling it to your liking on the teppan.Although the food is excellent, what makes Senryu stand out is the experience of great Japanese beef in an extremely beautiful Japanese setting. Excellent service complements the experience. They also have a wine list with an adequate selection, but this is not the strongest point of the place. As one may expect, an evening here won't come cheap, but won't set you back more than an upmarket Teppanyaki dinner in Tokyo. However, your dinner at Senryu will be far more memorable.If you are just looking for good quality Japanese meat, this can be found in a few other places. If you are looking for a full Japanese steak dining experience, it's hard to beat Senryu.
2. Hida Beef Grill Bakuro

This is among the best steak restaurants I've been to on the planet. Hida beef is grass fed beef which goes trough a highly disciplined calf raising process which creates marbled beef that is markedly different from Matsuzaka & Kobe beef. Consistency is maintained as each cow has to meet the exceptional standards of the Hida beef association. Grill Bakuro offers an open kitchen where diners can choose to sit in a elevated deck above the center kitchen, or in cozy alcoves behind a backdrop of a private garden. Two variations of dinner set menus give the dinners a choice to enjoy their exquisite beef with either a simple offering of beef/salad/ rice or bread, or with a more elaborate 5 course appetizer, salad, beef, fish, dessert set. We enjoyed a combination of the fillet and sirloin (ordered "medium rare") , which for me was among the most impeccable beef experiences I have had . The steak was so tender I could cut it with my chopsticks. The chateaubriand is apparently even more fantastic. We were incredibly satisfied. Thank you Grill Bakuro for you fabulous cuisine, and the warm hospitality of restaurant's superb manager, Mr. Yasushi Fujimoto. Their wine list is also well curated to pair with their perfectly executed steaks. We look forward to our next visit!!
