Tokyo Mate
Parlor Yazawa at Azabudai Hills Market (B1) is a must-visit. From the famous "Adult's Kids Lunch" to no-wait premium bento and takeout tips — here's your insider guide to this Azabudai Hills dining gem.
You've probably heard of Meat Yazawa, the legendary hamburg steak restaurant in Tokyo, and Agefuku, the famous tonkatsu spot. These wildly popular places usually have at least an hour-long wait. The premium meat wholesaler behind both — Yazawa Meat — has brought all that expertise together under one roof at Azabudai Hills.
Located in the Azabudai Hills Market on B1, this spot is already a pilgrimage site for meat-loving Tokyo locals. Here's everything you need to know, based on official information and firsthand experience.
1. Yazawa Meat’s All-Star Lineup
This isn't just another food court stall. Backed by a top-tier meat wholesaler, the quality of the ingredients is on a completely different level.
- Concept: A "social club for grown-ups" where you can taste dishes from famous restaurants that normally require long waits — all in one place
- Feature: Everything is made to order (By Order system), so you get freshly fried crispy tonkatsu and juicy dishes every time

This is the signature dish and the biggest reason to visit — the "Adult's Kids Lunch" (大人のお子様ランチ).
Remember those kids' meal sets from department store restaurants when you were little? Hamburg steak, fried shrimp, sausage — all the things you loved piled onto one plate. Parlor Yazawa has reimagined that childhood favorite using premium ingredients.

- The appeal: All the excitement and joy of those childhood meals, packed into one adult-sized plate made with top-quality ingredients
💡 Ordering Tips: Sauce & Doneness Guide
When you order a hamburg steak menu item, the staff will ask you questions in Japanese. Don't panic — just pick from the tables below.
① Sauce Selection (Choose 1 of 3)
| A. Yazawa Original (Wafu Shoyu) | B. Demi-Glace Sauce | C. Wagyu Meat Sauce |
|---|---|---|
| A clean soy-based sauce that cuts through the richness of the wagyu. The most universally popular choice. | The deep, rich Western-style sauce you know and love. Best paired with rice. | Not your regular tomato sauce — this one is packed with wagyu meat. Incredible flavor. |
② Doneness Selection
| Medium (Strongly Recommended!) | Well-Done |
|---|---|
| The inside stays slightly pink with maximum juiciness. If you want to fully experience Yazawa Meat's signature soft wagyu texture, medium is the way to go! | If you prefer your meat fully cooked through with a firmer texture, or if rare meat isn't your thing, go for well-done. |
🗣 Example Order Phrase:
"Midiamu, sosu wa A de onegaishimasu!"
(Medium, with sauce A please!)
