“Kiwamiya” is the place to eat Imari beef hamburger in Fukuoka, Kyushu. Be prepared to queue up!
Fukuoka “PARCO” is a department store located in Tenjin which is the biggest entertainment district in Fukuoka. You will find “Kiwamiya” in the basement floor of PARCO. Their signature dish is a hamburger steak.
Locals and visitors from outside the country come all the way here to eat. It’s always busy with hungry customers.
※Restaurant name in Japanese:極味や
The reason for the popularity is the taste and cost performance!
You can dine on Imari beef, a brand of beef from Saga prefecture, for a surprisingly reasonable price. Saga prefecture is right next to Fukuoka prefecture.

Kiwamiya hamburger steak
Kiwamiya hamburger steak Small size 130g ¥880 (dinner price)(Name in Japanese:極味やハンバーグステーキ)
They are famous for their DIY bbq concept. The hamburger steak comes on a hot plate while it’s still raw.
It’s so fresh, look at the colour of the meat!
You can decide grill it to your liking on the heated stone.
The meat is coarsely chopped so I could taste the flavourful Imari beef dancing in my mouth. Even when grilled to well done it was still so juicy!
Kuroge Wagyu premium steak
This item is only served at dinner time. Kuroge Wagyu premium steak Medium size (120g) ¥1,380(Name in Japanese:黒毛和牛最高級ステーキ)
Enjoy grilling it yourself. It’s as red as the hamburger but it’s a steak.
The high quality beef fat melted in my mouth! The meat was so tender!
The flavour of high quality beef was even more significant in the steak.
Sauces
You will get basic meat sauces and other choices of dipping sauces.
I recommend the onion sauce!
A steal of a deal! I paid an extra ¥300 for unlimited rice, salad, pickles, and soft serve ice cream!
Nothing goes better with good meat than white rice!
It was satisfying to end the meal with an unlimited amount of soft serve ice cream!
The paper bibs were covered in splashes of grease!
Make sure you use them !
Draft beer medium size ¥480
If you don’t want to line up, go before they even open.
There is a Hakata branch near Hakata station and yes, there is a big line up there as well!
But I’ll tell you it’s worth the wait, I will definitely come again!
