Introducing the Okamoto-style Karashi Yaki: 'Karashi Yakiniku Rice Bowl'!
■ What is Okamoto-style Karashi Yaki?
'Karashi' in 'karashi yaki' refers to chili pepper. The Okamoto-style 'Karashi Yakiniku Rice Bowl' features a slightly sweet soy-based sauce with a sharp kick from doubanjiang (chili bean paste). The balance of spicy heat and a subtly sweet house-made sauce creates an addictive flavor that perfectly complements rice.
■ Rich Flavor Meets Crunchy Texture for an Irresistible Combination
By incorporating cucumber and tofu — staples of regional cuisine — the dish gains a refreshing crunch and lightness, adding a pleasant contrast to its rich, savory profile.
This is a 'spicy-delicious stamina' dish, with a sweet-and-savory soy sauce enhanced by garlic punch and the bold flavor of doubanjiang.
Each bite delivers an appetite-stimulating, crave-worthy taste experience.
Perfectly paired with rice, it’s ideal for those craving a hearty, satisfying meal.

Nikumeshi Okamoto’s Philosophy
It’s not katsudon, gyudon, or oyakodon. This is a new kind of meat rice bowl — Nikumeshi.
The star ingredients are tender meat and tofu, slowly simmered in a carefully crafted broth with a secret tare (reduction sauce) until perfectly tender.
We simmer them gently in our special broth with our secret tare until they’re melt-in-your-mouth soft.
In addition to our signature 'Nikumeshi,' we offer a wide lineup including miso-braised beef offal.
From filling rice bowls to full-course meals, we serve hearty dishes that satisfy.
Nikumeshi Okamoto is a specialty restaurant created by meat lovers, for meat lovers.
【Signature Menu Items】
■ Nikumeshi: ¥740 (¥814 including tax)
■ Gyuhoro Meshi: ¥840 (¥924 including tax)
