Since You Ask About Teppanyaki

Teppanyaki is a unique dining style that combines culinary art with entertainment, providing customers with a feast for all the senses. One such establishment carrying forward this tradition is Samurai Teppanyaki House, established in 2012 and proud to be the only licensed Kobe Beef restaurant in Adelaide since 2019.

At a Teppanyaki restaurant, guests are seated around the open iron cooktop, or "teppan," where the chef cooks directly in front of them. This allows the dining experience to become a performance, with the chef showcasing dynamic cooking techniques such as slicing and cutting meat and seafood with precision, and even setting flame while cooking. Samurai Teppanyaki House takes pride in specializing in premium Wagyu steaks, including exclusive Mayura Station Fullblood Chocolate Wagyu and 60-day dry-aged Wagyu.
