01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
The enticing aroma of meats cooking over tabletop roasters meets a varied spread of Korean home-style dishes at Kudara Karubi. Tucked away in a basement setting in Akasaka, this restaurant offers authentic Korean dining and yakiniku around relaxed table seating.
Kuroge Wagyu Platters and Thick-Cut Cuts
For dinners centered on grilled meats, assortments designed for 2 to 3 diners make convenient choices. The thick-cut platter brings together thick tongue with salt, premium loin, and premium skirt steak, while the Matsu assortment showcases Kuroge Wagyu cuts including salted tongue, premium kalbi short rib, and premium loin. Beyond beef, the grill options feature samgyeopsal served with sanchu lettuce, garlic, and green onion salad, as well as variety cuts such as horumon and mountain tripe.
From Savory Pancakes to Stews and Soups
The broader menu provides plenty of interest beyond the grill. Crisp, pan-fried green chilli and perilla leaf pancakes, seafood chijimi, and iron-plate baby octopus stir-fries pair easily with Chamisul soju or makgeolli. Diners can finish the meal with a soothing hot dish, choosing between robust sundubu-jjigae, rich seollongtang ox bone soup, piping-hot stone-pot bibimbap, or refreshing naengmyeon noodles.
Late-Night Hours and Group Dining
The non-smoking dining room provides a comfortable environment for sharing plates among friends or colleagues. Because Kudara Karubi stays open from the evening until 3:00 the following morning, it serves as a reliable spot for late-night dinners and relaxed drinking sessions. For group visits, reserving ahead ensures a smooth table around the grill.
