The 'Charcoal Grill Santayu' stands in the peaceful rural landscape of Iga Basin. Here, a charming old farmhouse renovated from an Edo-period farmhouse serves as a shop. Walking through the heavy gate, a Japanese garden surrounded by greenery unfolds, leaving one captivated by its elegant appearance.
Upon entering the restaurant, one can observe the preserved atmosphere of the time, with exposed stone walls and sunken hearths. When led to the seat, the first thing that catches the eye is the spectacular view of the river on the opposite bank. While enjoying such a view, patrons can indulge in a course of Iga beef grilled over charcoal. The thick, red meat is filled with the richness of marbling, spreading new flavors in the mouth one after another.
In addition to the main Iga beef, appetizers and small dishes made from vegetables and seafood are beautifully arranged in dishes, adding color to the presentation. The finest ingredients and a space where one can fully savor the elegance of the Edo period meet, creating an exquisite time.
After filling both the stomach and the heart, it is recommended to take a stroll in the garden. Enjoy the plantings of the four seasons, where the owner's dedication can be felt everywhere. Experience a special space that offers a non-daily life different from the usual.
