Best of both worlds with Beef Sukiyaki Don Keisuke

Combining the best of these two contrasting dishes is celebrity chef Keisuke Takeda with his latest concept, Beef Sukiyaki Don Keisuke. His menu features two variations: a signature premium Beef Sukiyaki Don ($13.90) and the Kiwami Wagyu Sukiyaki Don ($29.90) featuring A4 Yonezawa beef.
