A little about this place
About Holy Cow Japanese Steakhouse
Holy Cow Japanese Steakhouse is a casual Japanese-style steak restaurant at 254 Queen Street West in the Entertainment District. You choose a cut, such as ribeye, sirloin or tenderloin, and order it by weight from about 10 ounces up; it arrives on a sizzling cast-iron plate with a choice of sides like corn, potato, broccoli and fried onions. Wagyu is offered but often sells out early. The menu also has steak and curry burger rice bowls, omurice, udon and karaage, plus lunch specials. Its Instagram describes all steaks as halal, though a few other dishes are not. It is open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
