Hige no Ushi specializes in Sapporo’s regional take on Jingisukan, where raw lamb and mutton are dipped in a signature sauce before being grilled over open flame. Tucked into a modest corner near Susukino, the restaurant keeps its focus tight: clean cuts of meat, generous vegetable portions, and a secret soy-based marinade that gives each bite depth. The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, with counter and table seating arranged around individual grills. Known for its quality lamb and straightforward execution, Hige no Ushi attracts regulars and curious newcomers seeking an authentic taste of Hokkaido’s lamb tradition in a casual setting.
