Tanya Zenjiro, Sendai Eki Gyutan Dori Ten is a beef tongue specialty restaurant situated on Gyutan Dori on the 3rd floor of JR Sendai Station. It is the kind of place you would hardly expect inside a station, with the aroma of charcoal grilling wafting from the kitchen right across the counter. The signature offering is the beef tongue set meal (teishoku) — thick-cut yet easy to bite through, releasing savory meat juices and salty umami with every chew, traditionally enjoyed together with barley rice and grated yam. The accompanying oxtail soup has a clear broth packed with rich beef flavor and large, satisfying chunks of meat. The menu also offers diverse ways to enjoy beef tongue, including the rare cut manaka-tan, tenderly stewed beef tongue stew, and mildly spiced beef tongue curry. Barley rice comes with one free refill, making this a valuable spot for a quick meal before boarding the Shinkansen or for picking up a bento for takeout. Featuring 26 counter seats with all seats non-smoking and no reservations accepted, it is best to visit with plenty of time to spare.
