Shuvi du Bar — Restaurant in Tottori

TLDR: Our food took about 20-30 minutes but was so worth it to speak to the owner and meet other regulars in the restaurant. The burgers were exceptional and despite eating a lot left us feeling refreshed and not gross. I would travel back from Tokyo just to visit again. Get the Shuvidu Burger if you like pulled pork, I think the pulled pork is excellent.

FULL REVIEW:

While spending our only night in Tottori we decided to try the local Tottori meat and get burgers. As Americans I’d like to say our bar is set pretty high, and we just so happened to find this restaurant.

The atmosphere is quaint and extremely easy to talk, the owner/cook will move around and cook in front of you while also tending the bar that the counter sits at. Of my year-and-a-half of time spent in Japan, the owner might be the most genuine and kindest person I’ve ever met. He came to the US 3 times, discovering “craft burgers” and learning about farm-to-table dining. Seeing that Tottori did not have anything like that, he dropped everything to create this restaurant himself.

Everything is made from scratch using local ingredients. Naturally this makes things take a bit longer to prepare but the owner prides himself on “slow-food”, the natural antithesis of the fast-food we have so much of. His buns are from a local bakery, his ketchup handmade, meat from Tottori cattle and pigs, cheese from...

If you’re in Tottori and craving an amazing burger, this place is an absolute must! The burger is made with local Tottori Wagyu, and you can really taste the difference—the patty is incredibly juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The toppings are fresh and well-balanced, with crispy bacon, melted cheese, and a thick, sweet tomato slice that ties it all together beautifully.

The fries are on another level—thick-cut and topped with a generous amount of gold medal–winning Raclette cheese, making them rich, creamy, and seriously addictive. It’s the perfect indulgence!

The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with a nice selection of drinks and a relaxed vibe. The owner is friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better!

Highly recommend stopping by for one of the best burgers you’ll find...

This was, hands down, the best and most refined burger I’ve ever had in my life! The combination of the perfectly cooked Tottori Wagyu beef patty and the pulled pork on the Shuvi Du Burger made this meal one of my best culinary experiences in Japan ever!

We had dinner with our kids and the mini burger sets were simply perfect for them because not only it was exactly the right size for them to eat them but also it allowed each one of them to taste up to 3 different burgers in the same meal.

This restaurant is a hidden treasure here in Tottori, I definitely...
