5 Best Halal Japanese Restaurants in Nara

Since opening our Yakiniku restaurant in 2007, we have refined our Halal Wagyu ramen, achieving a version we are truly proud of in 2023. We offer two types: a rich, creamy beef bone broth and a spicy broth with our original miso, both paired with homemade, chewy, medium-thick curly noodles. Each bowl is topped with marbled A5 Halal Wagyu beef and a special blend of spices, creating an unforgettable experience. We can accommodate group reservations; please contact us by phone. We are currently in the process of obtaining Halal certification.

Located inside the NARARA complex, just steps from Kintetsu Nara Station, our restaurant specializes in sukiyaki — one of Japan's most iconic beef dishes, and a natural stop after visiting Todai-ji Temple or Nara Park. We serve halal-certified beef exclusively. No pork or pork-derived ingredients are handled anywhere in our kitchen, and our sukiyaki broth is prepared without mirin, cooking sake, or any other alcohol-based seasoning. We maintain a separate set of cookware and tableware dedicated to Muslim guests. As a sukiyaki-only restaurant with a single, unified cooking process, there is no pathway for cross-contamination from other ingredients. While we do not have a prayer space on site, a public prayer space is located about a 10-minute walk away. Our staff will be glad to give you directions. Please note: Alcoholic beverages are served to other guests in the dining area. Please contact us in advance if you have any questions.
