Matsuya Delists 'Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl' and 'Salt-based Green Onion Bowl' From the Menu Today
Matsuya’s official website menu data confirms that, as of 9:24 AM on May 19, 2026, two items — the Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl and the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl — have been removed. The two items disappeared from the current lineup just ahead of today’s 10 AM launch of the new Set Meal of Grilled Thick Pork with Chimichurri Sauce.
| Item | Category Before Removal | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl | Bowl | Removal confirmed as of 9:24 AM, May 19 |
| Salt-based Green Onion Bowl | Bowl | Same |
Salt-based Green Onion Bowl: Delisted About 28 Days After April 21 Launch
The Salt-based Green Onion Bowl launched on April 21, 2026, as one half of a “Thick-cut Pork Loin” two-item pairing, released alongside the Grilled Pork Loin Set Meal. Here is the timeline leading up to its delisting.
| Date | Development |
|---|---|
| April 21, 2026 | Salt-based Green Onion Bowl and Grilled Pork Loin Set Meal launched as a pair |
| May 2, 2026 | Official X account posts a tasting report on the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl (recommended topping: Grated Domestic Yam Paste) |
| May 8, 2026, 9:16 PM | Official X account announces the phased discontinuation of the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl series |
| May 12, 2026, 9:38 AM | “*To Be Discontinued Successively” notice added to the menu listing, and the item is removed from the Limited-time slot |
| May 19, 2026, 9:24 AM (this report) | Removed from menu data |
From its April 21 launch to today’s May 19 delisting, the item was on sale for roughly 28 days. The delisting came seven days after the May 8 discontinuation notice on X, and seven days after the May 12 menu notice was added.
Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl: Delisted 14 Days After May 5 Discontinuation Notice
The Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl — a long-running staple item added to the official website menu on August 12, 2025 — received the “*To Be Discontinued Successively” notice during a major menu overhaul at 10:09 AM on May 5, 2026. Today, 14 days after that discontinuation notice, its delisting has been confirmed.
| Date | Development |
|---|---|
| August 12, 2025 | Added to official website menu |
| May 5, 2026, 9:39 AM | Discontinuation notice also appears on the morning menu’s Tokuasa Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl |
| May 5, 2026, 10:09 AM | “*To Be Discontinued Successively” notice added during a major menu overhaul |
| May 19, 2026, 9:24 AM (this report) | Removed from menu data |
The delisting comes after roughly nine months on sale, making it the only item from the May 5 discontinuation-notice group to complete its discontinuation so far. The two Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl items (the regular version and the Tokuasa morning version), which were marked for discontinuation in exchange for the addition of three items including Taco Rice, saw that discontinuation become reality with today’s menu removal.
Synchronized With the 10 AM New Menu Launch on May 19
Today, at 10 AM on May 19, the new Set Meal of Grilled Thick Pork with Chimichurri Sauce (1,280 yen) is set to launch, marking a milestone moment in the ongoing menu lineup reorganization. The removal of the two items was reflected at 9:24 AM, just before the launch, with the new menu addition scheduled roughly 36 minutes later at 10 AM.
| Time | Development |
|---|---|
| May 19, 2026, 9:24 AM | Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl and Salt-based Green Onion Bowl removed (this report) |
| May 19, 2026, 10:00 AM (scheduled) | Launch of the Set Meal of Grilled Thick Pork with Chimichurri Sauce, and reorganization into a three-item Thick-cut lineup (Chimichurri, Pork Steak, Grilled Pork Loin) |
A similar pattern was seen when the Butter Chicken Curry and Rice launched on May 12: a discontinuation notice was added to an existing menu item at 9:38 AM that same day, followed by the new menu addition at 10 AM. This pattern of existing-menu cleanup on the morning of a new item’s launch has continued, and this time it was joined by an additional step — the confirmed delisting.
The Simultaneously Launched Grilled Pork Loin Set Meal Remains Available, Still a Coupon Item
The Grilled Pork Loin Set Meal (880 yen), which launched the same day as the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl (April 21) and received its discontinuation notice at the same time, remains in the menu data as of today, and is currently being offered through the app as a 70-yen-off coupon item through 10 AM on May 19. It is being handled on a different discontinuation timeline than the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl.
| Item | Launch Date | Discontinuation Notice | As of Today |
|---|---|---|---|
| Salt-based Green Onion Bowl | April 21, 2026 | May 12, 2026, 9:38 AM | Delisted May 19, 9:24 AM |
| Grilled Pork Loin Set Meal (880 yen) | April 21, 2026 | May 13, 2026, 4:17 PM | Still listed (70-yen-off coupon item) |
The two paired items are disappearing on different discontinuation timelines, with the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl going first — making it the first of the Thick-cut Pork Loin pairing to exit the menu.
Editor's Note
On the morning of the Chimichurri Thick-cut Pork launch, the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl and Seasoned Ground Chicken & Egg Bowl were delisted — the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl, launched April 21, disappeared after a short run of about 28 days.
