"Japanese restaurant 2014 popular with foreigners" was announced on TripAdvisor, a travel word-of-mouth site. Based on the non-Japanese word-of-mouth evaluations posted during the year from April 2013 to March 2014, the rankings up to the 30th place are published. It seems that the result reflects the popularity of Matsuzaka beef, Kobe beef, and Edomae sushi, which are world-famous.

The first place was "Matsuzaka Beef Yakiniku M Hozenji Yokocho Store (Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture)". "The fat-laden meat melted in my mouth, and the lean meat was very tender. What a beef tastes like this!" "Excellent Excellent !! (Great! Great! Great!)" "Dripping just by remembering There are many reviews about the shock and joy of encountering "Wagyu" such as "Wagyu!"


In addition to the quality and taste of the food, the interior of the restaurant, the staff's service such as preparing an English menu for people who do not understand Japanese, and trying hard to communicate even if they are not good at English. It has become clear that consideration is also a popular secret. There was also an episode that "I had a hard time finding a store, and when I called, the store staff came to look for us."


"Center4 Hamburgers (Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture)" ranked second. Many foreigners recommended it as "the best burger in Japan" and "a really good place that deserves all the wonderful reviews". "In Takayama, which came after traveling to Japan for 15 days." Some say, "Eating hamburgers and french fries is the best."



"Tsukiji Sushi Dai (Chuo-ku, Tokyo)" is in 3rd place. It seems to be overwhelmingly popular because it doesn't disappoint and you want to eat even if you line up in a line. "I arrived before 5:30 on Saturday morning and took a seat at 8:50. I was tired from standing for a long time on a very cold morning, but when I ate delicious sushi, I could line up again in a long line. There were also voices that were willing to line up, such as "I think." He also said, "The owner is a very funny and lovely person, and he seems to be accustomed to what Westerners do not know, and explained how to eat sushi and what sushi he ate.
