Default Has anyone tried beef toungue?

Yes, its commonly eaten in Japan at Yakitori-ya (shops specializing in
kebobs like chicken). Its cubed and may be marinated in a soy sauce
base.

I found the meat too tough wherever I tried it. Also, you feel the
roughness of the tongue (just like your own tongue) against your tongue
which I really don't appreciate. The taste, however, is not bad. Its
beef meaty but tough.

So go for it if you are really interested. Possibly, you might find it
at an expat Japanese restaurant where you can get a sample. Its most
common among cheap street vendors in Japan that cook it right in front
of you.

Cheers! -- Rik
