Must-try in Takayama ⭐️ 1000/10 📍 Hidagyu Maruaki 📝 Such high-quality meat, next level marbling, melt-in-your-mouth texture and insane flavor! Hida beef ruined all other beef for us. We waited 30 minutes for a table, but it was absolutely worth it! Would book a flight just to eat this again. 🥹 #hidabeef #takayama #japan #japanesefood #wagyu

Reviews Summary

Hida Beef Curry House is celebrated for its exceptionally delicious Hida beef curry, with many describing the beef as melt-in-your-mouth tender and the curry flavor as complex and memorable. Some diners also enjoy the grilled beef options and the scenic river view. However, a recurring issue is the restaurant's inconsistent opening hours and unexpected closures, leading to disappointment for some visitors.

"Amazing curry!!! Hida beef cubes in gravy, with rice. No vegetables. Simple yet the curry had amazing complexity to its flavour."

Rosa Silver

"5 years ago I've tried it and it was amazing. Came back this year to try it but there was a sign saying it's closed at 3pm, an hour earlier than displayed on Google. Came back the next day and still closed. No sign mentioning they're away or something. 5 years ago i would give it an easy 5, however since i couldnt try this year ill give it a 4 in hope when i come back again this year it still has the taste i had the first time."

"This place is never open. Surprised it even bothers having a sign."
