May 9, 2026 (Saturday) marks the grand opening of "USHIGORO S. TAIWAN," the first overseas venture for Sangue Co., Ltd. (https://sangue.co.jp/), a company that has earned a Michelin Guide star for eight consecutive years. This new establishment will open in Taipei's Dazhi in partnership with Fujin Tree Group (https://www.fujintreeshop.com/).
Inheriting the high-end brand position established in Tokyo, USHIGORO S. TAIWAN will offer a new dining experience that overturns conventional notions of yakiniku, providing an exclusive course served in fully private rooms with dedicated grill masters offering full attendance.
Fully private rooms are available for various occasions. Each room will have a dedicated, skilled grill master who will expertly grill and serve extremely rare, premium cuts of Omi beef from Sawai Farm (Shiga), air-freighted directly from Japan. The delicate sweetness and exquisite umami unique to Omi beef are brought out through careful fattening with pure groundwater and a unique feed blend.
You can fully enjoy the world's finest Kuroge Wagyu with USHIGORO S.'s exquisite yakiniku course, meticulously selected down to the farm and lineage, paired with a selection of fine wines from around the world.
■ Sawai Farm [Shiga]
Established in 1975, this farm in Ryuo-cho, Shiga Prefecture, continues to raise high-quality Omi beef. They carefully select calves of excellent lineage and meticulously fatten them with pure groundwater and a unique feed blend, bringing out the delicate sweetness and exquisite umami unique to Omi beef.

Our aspirations are encapsulated in the single letter 'S', from which the name is derived.
Led by a designer who has worked on many hard-to-reserve restaurants in Japan and USHIGORO's in-house creative direction team, the space meticulously pursues perfection in every detail, incorporating the expertise of professionals who support Japan's top restaurants, in collaboration with local Taiwanese partners.
Mr. Itai of Itai Komuten (https://www.itai.co.jp/) was involved in the material design, and Mr. Satoshi Kurosaki of APOLLO (https://apollo-aa.jp/) was responsible for the lighting plan. By meticulously designing the delicate balance of material textures, light, and shadow, the overall perfection of the space is elevated.
The symbol of "USHIGORO S." and a prerequisite for luxury is "all private rooms." All guests can enjoy their meal in an independent space, free from interference of sight and sound. This provides an unwavering, high-quality experience for all occasions, such as business meetings, entertainment, or private time.
In the Taiwan branch, just like in Japan, a dedicated grill master in each room will determine the optimal grilling temperature and cut based on the fat quality and fiber structure of each part, and design the serving temperature and timing, delivering the most delicious moment. Guests can focus on the taste and experience without having to worry about cooking.
