About
The second location of Kanata Maeda's Japanese yakiniku group occupies a striking canal-side address near Zieseniskade, placing premium Wagyu dining steps from Amsterdam's greatest museums. The kitchen is staffed by Japanese chefs — confirmed by TripAdvisor — delivering the same omotenashi hospitality as the original Zuidas restaurant. The menu features A5 Wagyu nigiri and temaki sushi alongside traditional yakiniku cuts, making it equally suited to pure meat enthusiasts and those who want a fuller Japanese experience. Lunch service on Thursdays through Saturdays offers a more accessible entry point to the wagyu table.

Wagyu Kanata Centrum sits in Centrum, one of Amsterdam's neighborhoods where authentic Japanese kitchens have taken root. Reservations are available online — for a focused izakaya counter this is strongly recommended.
