Matsuya's Official X Announces Return of 'Hamburg Steak with Brown Sauce Set Meal' After About 7 Months, Launching June 30
At 18:00 on June 26, Matsuya’s official X account (@matsuya_foods) announced that the Hamburg Steak with Brown Sauce Set Meal will launch on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, at 10:00 AM. The announcement touts “Matsuya’s hugely popular hamburg steak sauce is back,” highlighting its return after about 7 months.
The Announcement Image Reads “By Popular Demand, Brown Sauce Returns.” — Hamburg Steak at 200g
The accompanying image prominently features the Hamburg Steak with Brown Sauce Set Meal served in a bowl bearing the Matsuya logo, alongside brush-style lettering reading “By popular demand, brown sauce returns.” A rich, brown-looking sauce covers the hamburg steak, garnished with chopped greens, with miso soup in the upper left, a fresh vegetable salad on the right, and rice alongside. A speech bubble reads “The hamburg steak comes in a generous 200g portion!”, and the listing shows the hamburg steak at 200g (two patties) priced at 1,180 yen (tax included).
Sunny-side Up Egg and Cheese Toppings Also Available — Launching June 30 at 10:00 AM
The official X account notes, “Sunny-side up egg and cheese toppings are also available,” meaning that alongside the classic Hamburg Steak with Brown Sauce, versions topped with a sunny-side up egg or cheese will also be offered. The brown sauce is known for its rich flavor, carrying the aroma and savoriness of mushrooms, and its return comes after the sauce was discontinued to the regret of many fans. The launch was also announced in a notice dated June 25 on Matsuya’s official website, which will also offer Single, Regular, and Triple size options, as well as a rice set version without the fresh vegetable salad. The set meal launches on June 30 at 10:00 AM at Matsuya locations nationwide, excluding some stores.
Editor's Note
Brown sauce returns after 7 months — and at 200g, no less. Add a sunny-side up egg or cheese on top, and satisfaction levels could go off the charts.
