Classic American-Style Restaurant Center Grill

Located in the heart of Noge, a Yokohama neighborhood that thrived as a post-WWII black market, Center Grill is a nostalgic Western-style restaurant. True to its roots, dishes are still served on traditional stainless steel plates, preserving the charm of its early days.

The restaurant’s signature dish is its “Napolitan,” a Yokohama original. Unlike many versions made with fresh tomato sauce, Center Grill stays true to its founding recipe by using ketchup. The chewy, thick noodles are boiled and then rested overnight to perfect their texture. Combined with ketchup, vegetables, and ham, this simple yet refined dish is a timeless favorite.

Other highlights include the “Chicken Rice,” made by wrapping ketchup-seasoned fried rice in an egg omelet, and the “Omurice,” featuring fluffy eggs atop white rice. For a richer option, the “Special Omurice” with a house-made demiglace sauce is a must-try. All dishes are generous in portion, ensuring a satisfying meal.

The spacious, wood-accented interior offers a welcoming atmosphere for groups of any size. Another perk: their hearty lunch menu is available all day, making it an ideal spot to savor classic comfort food whenever hunger strikes.
