Halal Wagyu in Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto (2026): 8 Restaurants, What Their Own Pages Say on Certification, Alcohol, Prayer Rooms and Prices

Checked 2026-11-12 · Updated 2026-11-12

Checked 12 Nov 2026 on each restaurant's own official page (Yoshiya, Yakiniku Sudaku Kyoto, Kobe Beef Gion Sudaku Teppan, Honolu Premier, SHINJUKU-TEI, Ninja Yakiniku, Namba-Tei and GYUMON). Japanese-only pages are translated. Prices are what each page showed that day; where a page doesn't mention tax, we say "tax not stated". Ringgit at ¥100 = RM2.5582 (ECB, 11 Nov 2026).

Short answer. Of eight wagyu restaurants that state a halal status on their own page, only two name a certifying body, and both name the Kyoto Halal Council: Yoshiya in Arashiyama (halal Omi Hime wagyu yakiniku ¥6,500, sukiyaki ¥7,700, tax included; separate prayer rooms for men and women; open 11:00–17:30) and Yakiniku Sudaku Kyoto in Marutamachi (sets from ¥5,499, courses ¥8,800 and ¥12,100; beer and sours on the menu; no prayer room). Kobe Beef Gion Sudaku Teppan says "Halal-certified restaurant" without naming a body, and serves sake, wine and beer (steaks ¥6,000–17,000). With a prayer room inside but no body named: Honolu Premier Kyoto (A5 sirloin steak 160g ¥8,490, A5 sukiyaki rice ¥3,290), SHINJUKU-TEI in Tokyo and Kyoto (wagyu ramen ¥4,500 + tax), Ninja Yakiniku in Asakusa and Namba-Tei in Dotonbori. Three show no prices as text. Checked 12 Nov 2026.

1. The 8 restaurants, in their own words

From each restaurant's official page, checked 12 Nov 2026.

Wagyu and unagi in one place. Yoshiya's halal menu also has a Halal Unagi on Rice Set at ¥4,800 (≈ RM123, tax incl.). Of the pages we checked, only Yoshiya lists halal wagyu and halal eel on one menu.

Two Sudaku restaurants, one company name. Both Sudaku pages mention the same Omi beef company. Only Sudaku Kyoto's page names the Kyoto Halal Council.

I read the label; you decide.

2. Alcohol: who serves it, who doesn't

Going by the menu or the wording on each official page, 12 Nov 2026.

3. By budget, from the printed prices

Prices on the official pages on 12 Nov 2026, one wagyu dish per person. Tax as each page states it.

With kids: Honolu Premier says it has room for families and strollers; Namba-Tei says it is child-friendly and stroller accessible. The other pages don't say.

Sorted by prayer room instead: Osaka and Kyoto halal restaurants with a prayer room and Tokyo halal restaurants with a prayer room.

4. What the official pages don't say

1. The certifying body. Six of the eight don't name one.
2. Prices. Ninja Yakiniku, Namba-Tei and $5 Wagyu Sukiyaki show no prices as text. The "$5" in the name isn't explained on the page.
3. Tax. Only Yoshiya (tax included) and SHINJUKU-TEI (+ tax) say.
4. Alcohol at Yoshiya and Ninja Yakiniku. Neither page says whether alcoholic drinks are served.
5. Halal menu or the whole menu. Yoshiya also has a regular menu, so order from the halal one. Gion Sudaku Teppan lists a red-wine-braised dish; ask which dishes are halal.

This is travel information, not our halal certification. A status is what the official page says on the date checked. When a price changes, I update it here.
