All You Can Eat A5 Wagyu Beef Sapporo
Sapporo isn't just about jingisukan (grilled lamb or mutton). There are just as many restaurants where you can eat dishes made with Wagyu (a type of high-quality cattle) raised on the vast open plains of Hokkaido. The selected restaurants are all unique, but they love their locality and make the most of their ingredients. Whether you're feeling hungry and need a big meal, or just want to sip on some wine and leisurely enjoy the umami (Japanese savory taste) of meat, there's sure to be something suitable for you in Sapporo!

This is one of 3 distinct CONOYOSHI restaurants in Sapporo, known for serving Western-style dishes.

If you can't decide, just order the [Chef's Recommendation] (no advance reservation required)! They also serve [Duck Noodles] that are popular with regulars and possibly even more delicious than those from a proper soba (buckwheat noodles) restaurant!
