Since 1966 this delightful restaurant has been preparing succulent Hida beef in private tatami rooms in a traditional Japanese house. On the banks of the Nagara-gawa in view of Gifu-jō, and overlooking a manicured garden, the setting is delightful. If you're looking for an authentic teppanyaki experience (priced accordingly), you've found it. Some Japanese-language ability is advantageous.
