1 minute from Meidaimae Station. It's on the 2nd floor of 松屋. The salad bar is a nice bonus. Healthy wakame salad, corn salad, potato salad, okra salad, and various other salads are all you can eat. There are soups and sweets, too. You eat the steak while cooking it on an iron plate. The steak seems to be imported, with a satisfying chew and a deliciousness that gives you energy. Sometimes you just crave steak, right? When that happens, I stop by here.

I'd always been curious about this building, which you can see from the escalator when transferring from the Inokashira Line. A 松屋 group all-star building. And of all places, 吉野家 is right across from it lol The steak restaurant on the 2nd floor is separate from 松屋食堂 on the 1st floor. Unlike the Shimokitazawa branch, you order from a touchscreen terminal after sitting down, rather than from a ticket machine. You pay afterward at a self-checkout. One thing to watch out for is that this place is extremely inaccessible, with steps all over the restaurant. I nearly tripped several times while going to get salad and soup. Wheelchair users and people with leg problems are completely unwelcome here. This time I ordered a hamburg steak. It comes rare, so you cook it yourself on a lava stone. But there's an iron plate on top of the lava stone that gets in the way. It's piping hot if you try to move it, but the meat won't cook if you leave it there. Revisited 2024年2月9日 Today is Meat Day, but there's nothing special here. This time I had cut steak 300g. I felt the meat quality of the cut steak was better than at competitors such as ペッパーランチ. Of course, it included the salad bar. I also enjoyed the salad bar desserts (杏仁豆腐 and coffee jelly). Revisited 2024年3月14日 This time I had 松ロースステーキ 300g. The meat was tougher than the cut steak. The price was even more reasonable in return. Revisited 2024年7月 Prices had gone up quite a bit while I hadn't been here for a while. The difference between having the salad bar and not having it used to be 100円, but is now 200円. Revisited 2024年10月 After another stretch without visiting, the salad bar had become incredibly pathetic. The 杏仁豆腐 and coffee jelly they used to have were gone, and the selection was less than half what it had been. Charging 200円 for this is practically a scam. Anyone wanting to enjoy a salad bar and desserts at a steak restaurant should not go here. On the other hand, some of the floor steps had been removed during the renovation.

松屋 management, seriously, please review this branch's operations at least once. I've visited several times, but the salad bar is always empty. Can't someone check it at least once every 30 minutes or 1 hour? If there's nothing available, can't you tell us after we order? Even when customers ask staff to replenish it, the food is stored frozen and takes time to thaw, so the person who asked doesn't get to eat it. This approach of leaving things alone until customers speak up, seemingly to cut costs, hurts customers more than the restaurant realizes. Please do something.

A set of zabuton 150g and a hamburg steak of about 150g costs 1650円 including tax. You can add the salad bar for 100円. Amazing value! Garlic, original, and onion sauces were available for the meat, so I enjoyed it to the last bite without getting bored. I also think having individually usable portions of wasabi, rock salt, and grated garlic is good for hygiene. As for the all-important meat quality, the zabuton isn't bad. I'd say it's quite high quality for such a low price. My rating of the hamburg steak is average, partly because I'm personally not very fond of it. For someone who likes it, the quality is perfectly fine. I was also satisfied with the many kinds of vegetables and dressings at the salad bar. The restaurant was clean and the staff were super kind. I'd like to go again.

A steak restaurant run by 松屋フーズ. 【Good points】 ・Each seat has a touchscreen, so you can take your time choosing without feeling awkward about ordering. ・松ステーキ 300g with the salad bar costs ￥1500. Even without the salad bar, rice and soup refills are free, giving it a great sense of value and affordability. 【Taste】 Compared with supermarket Angus beef, 松ステーキ has quite a light flavor. The umami wasn't particularly rich, either. If you're expecting the flavor of Australian beef or similar, you may notice a considerable difference. As if to make up for that, there's a good selection of 3,4 sauces, and trying different ones is one way to enjoy it. 【Other points】 There's a trick to cutting it: work out the direction of the fibers and slice it as you would shave slices off a chicken tenderloin. If you just cut carelessly like on TV or in manga, it takes a lot of force, especially when cutting at right angles to the fibers. You get worn out before eating… It's a place you can casually visit when you desperately crave meat without worrying about its quality.
