When Yoshikami first opened its doors in 1951, it could only seat ten. But now Yoshikami has expanded to accommodate the rush of customers that show up daily for their popular hashed-beef on rice with special demiglace sauce (1,300yen), which sells out quite quickly.
Come to the only restaurant in town that posts a sign asking its customers to “Forgive us for serving such extraordinarily delicious food!”
