Osaka Castle (Osaka-jo) is an absolutely breathtaking historical landmark and a must-visit destination in Japan. I give it a resounding 5 stars! The castle structure itself is stunning, especially the golden accents on the tower, but the true beauty lies in the surrounding castle grounds. The massive stone walls and deep moats showcase incredible historical engineering. The park is vast, meticulously maintained, and perfect for walking, offering incredible views of the castle from every angle. The museum inside the main tower (Tenshukaku) is highly informative, detailing the castle's rich history and the story of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. The panoramic view of Osaka city from the top floor is unforgettable. An unforgettable experience of Japanese history and architecture.

Osaka Castle is a very beautiful place on the outside with very nice grounds, but it’s not really a castle on the inside, it was rebuilt and turned into a museum after a fire, so don’t come in here expecting to see an actual castle on the inside. Very much skippable to go inside the actual museum, most exciting thing was the great view from above and the stamps. If you do end up coming here buy a ticket online, as ticket queue is very long, also do so from the official website, even if it is in Japanese, as it doesn’t have any extra fees.

10/10 would recommend if you want to learn more about Japanese history and experience beautiful cultural architecture. This site is also wheelchair accessible with an elevator to the 5th floor but I am not sure if there was one all the way to the 8th floor which is where you get to look out around the entire site. We had to climb stairs up to each level from the 5th floor to experience all the different exhibits on each level which wasn’t difficult for us. We quite enjoyed the history. Also, it was a beautiful view all around the castle grounds and an experience to remember for a lifetime. We would suggest accessing this site using the Osaka Amazing pass if you can get it from Klook. Much more affordable and there are many attractions close by that can also be enjoyed with the same pass.

Only if you love the history then worth the visit inside the castle you get to go up and you get a little museum of a tiny history of osaka castle but very crowded and you get an okay view of the top, you can do quick. There is a long queue for elevator best to take the stairs or you will be there forever and buy tickets online to avoid another queue to enter the castle. There is boat ride of the castle which is nice best to do on a good sunny day. Not much else but can be all done within 1 hour.

Osaka Castle is undeniably iconic — the exterior is gorgeous, the architecture is striking, and the surrounding park is pleasant to walk through. It’s one of those landmarks that looks amazing from the outside and makes for great photos, especially if the weather is good. That said, the interior museum experience is just okay. A lot of the original history has been replaced with modern displays and signage, so you don’t really get the feeling of stepping into an ancient castle. The upper viewing deck is decent, but the crowds can get overwhelming and the lines move slowly — especially on weekends or holidays. Overall, it’s worth a visit to see the building and the grounds, but the inside feels a bit commercial and less immersive than expected. If you’re in Osaka and have extra time, it’s a convenient and solid sightseeing stop — but not a “must do” if you’re limited on schedule.

A historic castle. The outer area is very large. The inside has a lot of diorama, mini museum. As a castle fan, history and culture enthusiast, I truly enjoyed this exhibition. You can try one the helmet too for 500 Yen and another 1800 Yen to get photographed profesionally (green screen) But the crowd should got capped 20% less in order to better enjoyment.

Super fun experience, it was so amazing to see and be able to walk inside of the castle. There was so much to read about its history within. It was a very quiet place inside apart from some people's children making some noise, fairly crowded when we went in late September/early October but it wasn't too bad. It was easy to navigate to and the grounds were cool to walk especially after being able to see inside and learn more about points of interest and how the castle was made!

Very large Castle & park!!! Took the tram up to the entrance for my senior parents, which really helped. Gear photo opportunities everywhere. Weather was good, late September early October. I picked up a really nice T-shirt & other souvenirs at the gift shop. A little pricey but good quality.

As one of Japan's most famed landmarks and a symbol of reunification, the construction of the Osaka Castle was built in 1583 and has undergone many restorations throughout the centuries. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks around the vast Osaka Castle Park, which offers breathtaking views, particularly during the cherry blossom period. While it's free to walk around the park, it is paid entry to your main castle tower. Just admiring the castle's grandeur from the ground was enough for us! For those who want to take photos of the castle without swarms of tourists milling around, we recommend taking photos from the side or beyond the moat.

Osaka Castle Park is an absolutely beautiful place to visit! The scenery is stunning from the lush greenery to the majestic view of the castle itself. The castle museum offers a fascinating look into Japan’s rich culture and history, with well-presented exhibits. The observatory deck provides a great panoramic view of the city and surrounding park. Overall, it was a truly memorable experience! A wonderful blend of nature, history, and beauty. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Osaka!

Very neat place. We climbed the stairs to the 8th floor. I was a challenge in the heat and humidity. There is a one way elevator (up only i believe, but maybe I'm wrong since I took the stairs). The stair way is not air conditioned, but each level where the exhibits were is. Nice views from the top. Some nice gift shops in out buildings. I'd recommend a visit.

Nature's beauty is on display in full regalia. This park is so incredible. It has everything trees, flowers, birds singing, even the crow's cawing is not annoying. Come here in the fall and you'll see the fiery red colors of the leaves turning. The Japanese maples are absolutely stunning and you get these beautiful reflections on the water. This is world-class beauty.

Woah!!!! That’s the least I can say about this splendid masterpiece. We went at night and the castle was lit up throughout the whole night. I strongly encourage to go at night as it’ll be less crowded and less hot. There are patrols onsite for security obviously. It’s a white castle and super pretty especially at night. No tickets were bought to enjoy this beauty.

Osaka Castle is an impressive and beautifully preserved landmark that perfectly blends Japan’s rich history with modern city views. The walk through the park is relaxing, and the observation deck at the top offers a panoramic view of the city skyline that’s absolutely worth the climb. Everything is clean, well-organized, and family-friendly — a must-visit for anyone coming to Osaka!

Beautiful museum just right across Osaka Castle. If you're into history, this museum will make you happy. There are multiple floors to visit each covering different era of Osaka history.

Diving myself into rich history of osaka and vicinity are, I spent about a couple of hours to learn and enjoy the exhibiyion in this place. It’s so extensive but entertaining without exhaustion, the journey begins with buying tge reasonable price ticket on 1F then proceed to top 10th floor, story of very first osaka, nanniwa palace , then step down floor by floor , be not missed !! The stunning view of osaka castle complex .

We stopped by on our way to the Osaka castle park. A good experience. A great place to learn more about the rich history of Osaka and to get a bit of rest and cool down too (especially if you go during the hottest months).

Well worth a visit. Takes you through the history of Osaka from prehistoric times. Very impressive life size models, original artifacts and miniature townscapes are spread over 3 floors. Very good information provided in English. As you move between floors you get a fantastic view of the castle & moat. Part way through you can have a break and try some archaeology based puzzles. Harder than you think.

Nicely curated museum just beside Osaka Castle. As soon as we got off the train, the NHK Building was there and we decided to check out the museum first before exploring the castle. We learned a lot about Osaka - its history and how it became the city it is today. The regular museum exhibit starts at the 10th floor, each floor showcases Osaka's history from geological formations, to the different parts of history - shogunate, industrial transformation etc. While going down to the other floors, you can see the beautiful views of the city facing the port area and a great view of the Osaka Castle. We spent about 2.5hrs here going through every display and reading most of the descriptions. There's an area for kids (and adults too) where they can play with puzzles, look at microscopes, play on a 90s model PC, dig some fossils and more.

Absolutely wonderful Museum. Beautiful service, you begin on the 10th floor with a great view of Osaka Castle, and as you go to lower levels the display becomes more current. If you are in Osaka this is a must to get some insight on the history of this magnificent city.

Who could've thought it was possible to fill 4 floors for a local history museum, but Osaka has done it. The exhibits are of the highest calibre, especially the models of the Naniwa Period. Although the life sized models on all the floors are excellent. There's a currently a special exhibition of Japanese sword making, which I highly recommend. Although most of it is about traditional Japanese swords, there's a special section. This special section is a collaboration between sword-smiths and modern manga artists to create some fanciful swords. It's also worth taking the escalators down and you can get birds eye view of Osaka Castle and the castle park. Well worth a visit.

I have my last lunch in Osaka with my friend in this restaurant before I leave Japan today. And I would just like to say the experience was really great. The food qualities were extremely good. And the price was sensible too. The staffs were very friendly. And they were trying their very best to introduce their products and using instruction to us. At last, I was happy that I could have a short talk with one of a staff together before I left the shop. We must be back very soon and thanks for their warm treat to us!

This was my first time trying ramen with butter, and it turned out to be surprisingly delicious! Plus, they offer free seaweed that you can add as much as you like. On top of that, the waitress was super friendly — so friendly that I even felt a little shy ☺️ Highly recommend everyone to come and give it a try!

Ordered the special with shoyu and the super special with dried sardines shoyu and both were freaking amazing! The butter really makes a hugeeee difference, add the whole chunk in and you won’t regret it! Would highly recommend this place, the atmosphere is great and service is fabulous!

Lovely experience overall! First of all, the Salt ramen! There is nothing more one could ask of it. Perfect balance of salt with Umami. They also provide you with nori that gives you that additional saline nuance and umami. If you want to steer a bit away from the simple but perfect broth, they have hajikami flakes(first time seeing them, would love to buy them) that provides incredible aroma and that slight tingle to your tongue that wakes the taste buds. (Also I swear they do something to that eggs. How are they cooking them and how are they infusing the aroma..?) Another thing that I appreciated (immensly) is that they provide smaller portion of noodles. Usually when I go get ramen, I can't finish them. And by no means because I didn't like them. Even for ones I loved I left 1/3 to 1/2 portions. I hate food waste, and also I didn't want it to seem like I didn't enjoy the dish. So when Choro had smaller portion option, was relieved and actually finished the whole thing! Lastly. The overall experience outside of the food itself was somewhat different (in a good way) from other ramen restaurants I've been to. (By no means an expert, but I love my ramen. ) I felt Choro was quite spacious with a bright and light atmosphere (personally think, matching the food). Also, my first time seeing the restaurant actively collect user experience and opinion which shows what the restaurant values. Of course, the welcoming staff made the overall experience start off as and kept it amazing.

I don’t usually leave reviews for food but this ramen was the best ramen I’ve ever had in my life and my time so far in Japan! Highly recommend the dried sardine soup and the key to the ramen: hokkaido butter 🧈😭 it’s sooo good i’ll definitely be back for this! 🙌🏼 Bonus for exceptional service ☺️

One, if not the best ramen we have tried during our two-week trip in Japan. Extremely tasty broth, thin and soft meat and very friendly staff. I definitely recommend giving it a try if you are in Osaka!

We found this restaurant by accident, what a find. It had a small menu but everything we had tasted fantastic. Really nice and friendly staff who made us feel welcome. Hopefully will find time to visit again before we leave Osaka.

This initially unassuming building has a quite good free area, with a shop and great views, but it's worth paying to go all the way up! No prebooking was needed when we came during a weekday morning. The open-air top has good views of the surrounding area, although the ideal south view is blocked by other skyscrapers, unfortunately. There's a very small museum with the history of the building, containing an excellent time-lapse video of the unbelievable central area raising process. There's a fairly good food & drink shop inside, worth a rest here if you can get a good window seat.

Due to the roadworks and construction this was difficult to find. But once we found it, it was a lovely building. I used the Osaka Amazing Pass. Note that if you come before 3pm or is free with the pass. Unfortunately we can after 3pm so the pass allowed us a 10% discount. We bought the tickets on the day. There was no queue and the tickets were readily available. Then it was a lift and an elevator up to the top and the skyline was amazing. There is a specific area for photo spot. Not controlled by the staff but everyone was respectful by queuing up and not taking too long to take the pics. It was an amazing view. Also walked up the stairs to the outer layer of the sky building. It's outdoors with ample amount of safety so wonderful to go out and feel the warm breeze.

One of our first activity in Osaka. We visited this building and queued for some time to get access to the elevator which will take us up to the observation floor - which is the top 2 floors of this building. Once upstairs, you have to get tickets and then, you are free to roam around the 2 floors. There are plenty of nice view all around. There is a cafe, lavatory as well as a souvenir shop. The rooftop is the most popular spot as you can view the Osaka skyline and it is gorgeous in a clear night. I wish we had come here during sunset as I am sure we could get aome amazing pictures then. We spent quite sometime admiring the cityscape. There are a few platforms set up for taking photos. We finally left when it became too cold due to the strong, chilly wind.

Walked from Osaka Castle to Umeda Sky Building and the walk itself was nothing special, with the aggravating factor that there are roadworks going on. Also, expect to wait a long time to take the lift (almost 1 hour), and then to come down (it doesn’t matter if you buy a ticket in advance or not, it’s just the normal waiting time to take the lift as there are only two that take turns). The views are ok, but you clearly realise (if you haven’t done so already) that Osaka is a very grey and brownish city, with too many buildings. You almost see no green, no nature. Also, most of the windows are blocked by tables and chairs of the café and people seem to love to block your access to them, so it can be tricky to take decent pictures. Once again, souvenir shops and I didn’t really care for what they were selling. Was hoping for a great experience as every blog tells us it’s a must-see place, but in my opinion it wasn’t really worth the walk (it’s far from everything) and I preferred the views from the Osaka Castle. Oh, and bring cash, I believe the tickets machines only accept cash (2000 yen per adult), but I’m not sure.

This is great place to see the skyline of the whole city. Highly recommend to check it out. Without paying ticket to the highest level, people can still visit the gift shop and see the city through the windows. But the outside visiting floor is awesome. Not dangerous because there is another open floor below the outdoor patio. So it's not very scary if people are afraid of heights.

Interesting building and history, nice views. A bit too long waiting time for me. Very organized. On the top you have a nice cafe where you can take. A couple of selfies. Worth it if you are doing this and other Osaka activitys on the "Osaka amazing pass"(if pricing doesn't change "

Offers an astonishing night view of Osaka City, split into an open door and indoor area. The indoor area is quite huge and there were not many people in it. There are shops as well as eateries, providing merchandise and souvenirs for visitors to buy. A must come if you wish to view the night skies of Osaka, might be hard to find due to the nearby construction site.

This place is excellent. All kinds of toys, games, tents, fridges, shavers, suitcases, blenders, shaved ice machines, barbecue rigs, and pretty much everything else one could need or not need. Well worth spending several hours looking around. Plenty to see and do for all ages. Great for all the family. Half of the building is Yodobashi Camera and the other half various other stores.

This place feels like teleporting into a 90s shop! You can still buy brand-new audio cassette players, CD/MP3 players, and even movies on VHS and DVD. They also offer new products at good prices since they provide tax-free shopping for tourists. It’s a great spot to see classic Japanese brands alongside modern high-tech items as well.

Amazing multi-level store to shop, particularly if you are a fan of toys, camera, electronics. They offer a huge selection of things you are thinking of and things you don't know exist (but you will like). The prices are generally good and tax free for tourists, so bring your passport. When we visit, they have the Expo metal built Gundam. You can easily spend a few hours if not a day there if you want to browse everything.

Yodobashi Camera Multimedia Umeda is absolutely massive! If you want to quickly browse through all the floors, it would still take at least 60 minutes—and we ended up spending a few hours there. It’s not just electronics—there’s so much more to explore, including beauty products, toys, and even a food department. Plus, there are over 100 gashapon machines, making it a paradise for capsule toy lovers! A great place to shop, wander, and discover all kinds of gadgets and goodies in one spot. Highly recommend setting aside plenty of time if you plan to visit! 🛍️🎮📷✨

Been trying to purchase a Sigma 17-40mm f1.8 eMount in the Philippines and unfortunately, after months of waiting, it is still unavailable. Had the opportunity to go to Yodabashi Osaka, and finally got mine tax free! Amazing lens. Excellent quality. Better service!

Great flagship store. It's nested in an amazing location with shopping and food. Well worth the visit. Right outside of Osaka station.

This department store is quite large, with a primary focus on selling electronic devices such as computers, mobile phones, tablets, and various accessories. In addition, there are general retail zones, such as Uniqlo and several other shops. The staff are highly skilled and can check stock availability online, as well as assist in navigating the store efficiently. However, if you're specifically looking for sports equipment, this may not be the best option as the selection is limited, with most items being golf clubs and golf accessories. Another point to consider is that some items may not be in stock and may need to be pre-ordered, such as certain keyboard models. If you need them immediately, it’s recommended to check in advance. The restrooms within the store are somewhat hard to find, as the store layout is packed and not very orderly, making it take some time to locate them. If you're looking for IT products, this store is a good choice, though when compared to other places, the prices aren't significantly different.

The Grand Front Osaka complex is actually a combination of several buildings. Unfortunately, I didn’t research enough before visiting and assumed it was just one building, which left me feeling a bit lost while exploring. Overall, it’s a great place to visit, as long as you use the building floor plan to know where you are. The complex is welcoming and conveniently within walking distance of Osaka Station.

Another huge mall in the heart of Umeda. Has a lot of unique brands that cover many aspects of life. The place is always busy with people. Good for businesses!

Huge mall next to the train station. Well planned with spacious walkways and easy connections to adjacent buildings. Lots of shop, cafes and restaurants. The area is clean and well maintained. I love the outdoor fountain area with cute sculptures. I struggled with the signages initially but got the hang of it eventually.

Grand Front Osaka is a fantastic destination for shopping and exploring! The variety of boutique stores is impressive, offering everything from high-end fashion to unique local finds. It’s a great place to browse and discover something special. The Christmas decorations were absolutely stunning and added a magical atmosphere to the whole experience—definitely a highlight of our visit! That said, the layout can be a bit confusing, especially for first-time visitors. It took some time to navigate between the different areas. Overall, it’s a lively and vibrant spot that’s worth checking out, especially during the holiday season.

Large, modern shopping complex with lots of shops and restaurants. The open space outside has water features and a large green bear sitting in the water spitting out water from its mouth. The steps also have an advertisement for the expo. Probably quite a pleasant outdoor space when it’s not so hot. Rather busy inside, not many people outside due to the heat.

Grand Front Osaka is a beautiful and well-designed complex — clean, modern, and full of great shops, restaurants, and cafes. It’s one of Osaka’s most stylish areas, perfect for shopping, dining, or simply enjoying the atmosphere. However, in the early morning hours, you may notice several homeless people or individuals sleeping on benches around the building and nearby plazas, so it’s good to stay a bit cautious if you visit early in the day. Other than that, it’s a fantastic and vibrant place to explore — safe, lively, and very comfortable during the day. I recommend visiting on weekdays when it’s less crowded and you can fully enjoy the calm yet sophisticated vibe of the area.

I'm not sure which building I was in since they are all interconnected like a maze. But this is a must visit location right outside of osaka station.

An impressive station which is the stop point for a large amount of trains and travellers modernized with a large shopping complex above containing shops such as the Pokemon Centre and Nintendo Store. I recommend spending a day to explore and get lost with the offerings that Osaka Station has to offer!

Large but surprisingly so easy to use and navigate compared to shin osaka station! I use the osaka loop line and JR Fukuchiyama / tokaido sanyo / JR takarazuka line via this station

I can give this 10 stars if it's available. I come from a country where our station smells like crap and falling apart. So it's amazing how this is just one of many amazing train stations in Japan.

Osaka Station is one of the largest and busiest transportation hubs in the Kansai region, serving as a key gateway to major cities like Kyoto, Kobe, and Nara. The station connects multiple train lines, including JR and local subway services, making it incredibly convenient for travelers. Inside the station, there are numerous restaurants, cafes, and shops, offering a variety of food and retail options. Several hotels are also directly connected or nearby, such as Hotel Granvia Osaka and InterContinental Osaka, providing excellent accommodations for visitors. Right next to the station is the Yoshinoda Electronics Store, a large electronics supermarket where you can find a wide range of gadgets, appliances, and more. With its strategic location and abundant facilities, Osaka Station is an ideal starting point for exploring the Kansai region.

I didn't plan to visit the Osaka Station, just wanted to try a new route. First time here in this station, it's so big and grand . It's amazing to see the building structure of the station, all the different train tracks really opened my eyes . A busy station, but people moving around quietly. The road signs and directories are very clear and helpful , because they have many different railway lines and companies , you may need to walk a long way to change to another line . I am really impressed by the whole system !

Osaka Station is one of the most impressive and busiest transportation hubs in Japan, and it lived up to its reputation during my visit. The station itself is massive, modern, and well-organized, making it easy to navigate even for first-time visitors. It connects various JR lines, including the Osaka Loop Line, and offers direct access to Kansai Airport, which is incredibly convenient for travelers. What sets Osaka Station apart is not just its efficiency but also the range of facilities it offers. There’s an entire shopping complex, Lucua, directly above the station with everything from fashion to souvenirs. You can also find plenty of restaurants and cafes to grab a quick bite or enjoy a leisurely meal. Whether you’re looking for local Osaka cuisine or international options, you’ll find something to suit your taste.

Came to the main Osaka station twice recently in early July, first to take the train to Kyoto and second time to take the train to Kobe. It is a big station so need to enter at the right gate to go to the right platform

Authentic udon. Locals frequent. Cheap and fast but little sitting available

pretty good and cheap

Really good!!! 😋

(Translated by Google) 🧅Menya Osaka Mido | A bowl of noodles with Kansai-style dashi (rating: 3.5) I went to "Menya Osaka Mido" for a quick dinner near Osaka Station. This time I ordered [Tori Ten Udon] (photo included). 🍜Points of Review • The dashi has a gentle Kansai-style flavor. The clear-colored soup is based on kelp and bonito, and is mellow enough to drink down. It is not too salty, so it is comforting. • The noodles are chewy and slightly thick udon. Unlike the firmness of Sanuki, they have a good elasticity in their softness and are easy to eat. • The chicken tempura is freshly fried and fluffy. The batter is light, and even when dipped in dashi, it doesn't get too soggy, and it has a rich aroma. Personally, I wanted one more (lol) • The garnish of green onions is a nice touch. It adds color and flavor. 📝 Summary The noodles are carefully made and are perfect for a quick meal. They're not flashy, but if you like Kansai-style udon, you'll love the taste. This is a restaurant you'll want to visit again and again when you're just a little hungry! (Original) 🧅麺屋 大阪みどう｜関西風だしが沁みる一杯（評価：3.5） 大阪駅近くでサクッと夕飯を…ということで「麺屋 大阪みどう」さんへ。 今回は【とり天うどん】を注文しました（写真あり）。 🍜感想ポイント • 出汁は関西風の優しい味わい 透き通った色合いのスープは昆布や鰹がベースで、飲み干せるほどまろやか。塩気も控えめでホッとします。 • 麺はもっちり系のやや太うどん 讃岐のようなコシとは違い、柔らかさの中にも程よい弾力があり食べやすい印象。 • とり天は揚げたてサクふわ 衣は軽めで、出汁に浸してもしんなりしすぎず、香りも豊か。個人的にはもう1個欲しかった（笑） • 薬味のネギがたっぷりで嬉しい 彩りも風味も良くしてくれます。 📝まとめ 全体的に丁寧に作られていて、さっと食べたいときにちょうど良い安心の一杯。派手さはないけど、関西風うどんが好きな方には間違いない味です。 ちょっと小腹が空いたときにもリピートしたくなるお店でした！

(Translated by Google) Menya Osaka Mido Craving something refreshing for lunch on a hot day, I headed to Menya Osaka Mido, a restaurant I'd been interested in for a while. This udon specialty restaurant is well-known in Osaka. This time, I ordered Zaru Udon. The thick, firm udon noodles were smooth and easy to swallow, and the more I chewed, the more I could taste the distinct wheat aroma. They were thoroughly chilled in cold water, giving them a delightfully cool taste. The dipping sauce was a slightly sweet Kansai-style dipping sauce. It wasn't too strong, but had a subtle flavor that brought out the rich umami of the broth, and it paired perfectly with the chopped green onions and grated ginger garnishes. Adding a little wasabi midway through added a refreshing touch, keeping me entertained until the very end. The udon was also generously portioned, making it a satisfying lunchtime meal. Many customers add tempura or rice dishes as an added bonus, and the wide variety of set menus means you can customize your meal to suit your mood that day. The restaurant has a clean, calming Japanese atmosphere. With counter and table seating, the layout is convenient for both solo and group dining. The staff are attentive, and even my first visit felt comfortable. The fast service makes it perfect for busy lunchtimes. ...

(Translated by Google) This is a standing soba restaurant affiliated with JR West. I went there for breakfast and ordered the Zaru Soba Set for 580 yen. The soba and two inari sushi are filling enough for breakfast, and they'll leave you full. The broth and inari sushi are bland and unsatisfying. It would be impressive if they reduced the salt content with the end of summer, but it may simply be a mistake. The restaurant is clean and hygienic, and the prices are still reasonable and convenient. The staff are all polite, smiling, and friendly. While this is just my personal preference, I felt the food was a little underwhelming, so I'll give it an overall rating of two stars. (Original) JR西日本系列の立ち食いそばです。朝食で利用し、ざるセットそば580円にしました。朝からそばといなり2ヶはボリューム十分で、腹パンになりますね。つゆといなりの味が薄く物足りない感じです。夏が終わり、塩分量を減らしたのだとしたら凄いことですが、単に間違えたのかもしれません。店内衛生面は清潔でよく◎、値段面ではまだまだ安くお得で利用しやすいでしょう。接遇面では、店員さんたちみなが丁寧で笑顔と愛想もいいでしょう。個人的嗜好ながら、料理の味付けが今ひとつに感じたので、トータル評価は星2つにします。

(Translated by Google) The texture of the chicken tempura batter soaked in broth and the juicy chicken meat was exquisite, and it went perfectly with the gentle Kansai-style broth. The rice balls were filled with plenty of ingredients, and when eaten with the udon noodles, it was especially satisfying. The fast pace of the food, which is unique to standing restaurants, was also pleasant, and it was really nice to be able to eat delicious food easily around the busy Osaka Station area. I was able to get a glimpse of a part of Osaka's food culture. The price was reasonable, and I was impressed by the high cost performance. I would like to stop by again next time I use Osaka Station. I would like to try a different menu next time. Although it is a standing restaurant, there were three tables that seat two people. I was lucky to be able to sit down and eat in peace. (Original) 鶏天の出汁に浸かった衣と、ジューシーな鶏肉の食感が絶妙で、関西風の優しい出汁との相性も抜群でした。おにぎりは具材がたっぷり入っていて、うどんと一緒に食べると満足感が格別です。 立ち食いならではのテンポの良さも心地よく、忙しい大阪駅周辺で手軽に美味しい食事ができるのは本当にありがたいものです。大阪の食文化の一端を垣間見ることができました。 値段もリーズナブルで、コストパフォーマンスの高さに感動しました。次回大阪駅を利用する際は、また立ち寄りたいと思います。今度は違うメニューも試してみたいです。立ち食いのお店ですが、2人掛けのテーブル席が３個ありました。 座って落ち着いて食べることができて、ラッキーでした。

I was so glad to find a prayer room on the 8th floor of Hankyu Umeda Main Store. It’s clean, quiet, and has separate rooms for men and women, complete with wudu areas and prayer mats. The room can be used freely during opening hours (10:00–20:00). Perfect location near Osaka and Umeda Stations, making it super convenient for Muslim travelers. Thank you, Hankyu Umeda, for your thoughtful hospitality!

Very well stocked with everything; even if u have no shopping list when u walk in ; you will end up getting something g😀and the best of all it’s linked to the Osaka train station.

As far as department stores go, I reckon this is the Gold standard in the Kansai region. Well-connected, has 2 basement levels plus 10 above ground levels with everything from cosmetics to clothing to home wares. I especially liked their dedicated floor for artisanal handmade goods. Service is excellent as there are lots of staff and for many places you tend to get a one-on-one experience.

This is not just my first time going up there. Every time I go up there, the environment and night view are beautiful and there are not many people.

This is one of my favorite department stores here in Osaka! It's a high end but caters as well to moderate, quality and branded products! What I love here is the restaurants, food/desserts/cakes/wines/souvenirs selections. They even have meat, fruits and grocery sections at the basement area. a lot to choose from with reasonable prices for good quality of food! This is a busy and central area and has a great location, close to Hankyu Umeda, Midosuji, JR osaka and other metro subway stations! They even have lockers to store luggage if you're travelers while doing your shopping at this department store.

Hankyu Umeda Main Store is a shopper’s paradise! The variety of luxury stores and restaurants is truly impressive, offering something for everyone. The Christmas decorations are absolutely stunning, creating a festive and magical atmosphere throughout the entire store. One of the highlights of my visit was the Christmas pop-up eateries and vendors—they really brought the holiday spirit to life! It felt like stepping into a European Christmas market, complete with delightful treats and charming holiday displays. The convenient tax refund system is another huge plus, making it easy for international visitors to shop hassle-free. Everything about this store, from its elegant ambiance to the thoughtfully curated offerings, made my experience unforgettable. Highly recommend visiting, especially during the holiday season!

WOW. Basement floor 1 and 2 has so much food variety. EDIT: Go to Le Boulanger de Monge for croissants (downstairs at B2 where the grocery store is) because their croissants are so so much better than the ones at Boulangerie Saint Honore.

The Osaka City Central Public Hall, built in 1918, is a symbolic landmark in the Nakanoshima neighborhood, which is lined with retro historical buildings, and is still an active public facility used for cultural, artistic, and social activities. The building was built by Einosuke Iwamoto, a stockbroker in Kitahama, who donated his personal fortune to the city of Osaka in order to provide "a place that everyone can use. Each room, from the stained glass windows and chandeliers to the staircases and doors, is a masterpiece of the technology of the time.

Well, for better or worse, I like this type of red brick building and the architectural style. I find it easy on the eye. Centrally located and easy to get to, with plenty to do around it. Would be nice if at least part of it could be open year round for visitors to see the inside, perhaps just a few restored rooms to give an idea of the interior around the period of construction.

Beautifully restored! The building elements were so clean and crisp, unmistakably Japanese!

Beautiful building with rich history. Take your time to explore the interior and don't miss the permanent exhibition on the ground floor. Oh, there's also a beautiful rose garden 15 mins walk away from the Public Hall.

A historical landmark and architectural masterpiece, the Osaka City Central Public Hall gently bears witness to Osaka's rich past. This magnificent structure, which is situated in Nakanoshima, draws tourists with its breathtaking Western-style architecture and cultural value. It radiates elegance and majesty. The Central Public Hall's elaborate façade, arched windows, and fine craftsmanship instantly draw your attention and are reminiscent of early 20th-century European architecture. The building stands out among the city's architectural landscapes thanks to its distinctive red-brick facade, exquisite domes, and detailed ornamentation. Entering, one is taken back in time to a more affluent and sophisticated period. The opulent interior design, with its elaborate woodwork, stained glass windows, and grand staircases, emanates a classic elegance. The Main Hall makes one feel nostalgic for a bygone age with its lavish chandeliers and well-kept decor. The Central Public Hall is a cultural center that hosts a range of events, concerts, and exhibitions that honor local music, art, and culture in addition to its architectural beauty. Its importance as a community hub is further highlighted by its use as a venue for both public and private events. The Central Public Hall, which is bordered by the lovely Dojima River and Nakanoshima Park, provides a calm atmosphere in the middle of the city's bustle, making it the perfect place for leisurely walks and quiet moments of reflection. A trip through history and culture awaits visitors to the Osaka City Central Public Hall, offering more than just an architectural tour. This famous monument, which is still a beloved and significant part of Osaka's present, gives a glimpse into the city's past for those who are interested in architecture, history, or just a peaceful getaway.

This is in the Nakanoshima island. I visited this year along with Mudosuji Illumination. Trees are beautifully decorated with various colours of lights to Nakanoshima. It may be long to walk from Umeda to Nakanoshima, but once you do you may enjoy the tremendous and beautifull night city/street view on both sides and can finish with kinds of events there in Nakanoshima with some lights shows.

It’s also beautiful at night.

What makes the entire first floor food area of Hanshin Department Store worthwhile is a French bakery stall called PAUL. Their croissants are the best in all of Osaka Station area. What’s also good is their croissant mixte sandwich. I am grateful to be able to enjoy authentic French croissants here in Osaka without having to endure a pickpocket ordeal in Paris. Thank you, ❤️ Japan ❤️from a visiting American. The fruit area of Hanshin has very good selection as well. There are grapes for all budget levels. The grapes from Nagano are the best. On the other hand, the extensive use of blue light in the meat section to make meat look more red than it actually is does not make selling meat here feel very sincere. I would rather go to Hankyu Department Store or somewhere else for meat because of this.

This is my very special department store that I always visit when in Osaka. On the B1, can buy various food items, which are enough for my simple dinner or breakfast. I especially like the mackerel rolls, and there are also many different kinds of tuna sushi, which are excellent. On this trip, I was happy to buy "Dassai 23" at a very reasonable price. Tax refunds were processed quickly on the second floor, and the staff were also "kawaii" (cute).

You will be spoilt for choices for the 'limitless' and mouthwatering food items. And if that's not enough, a short walk, you will find another 2 large department stores with similar offerings! ✌🏻

huge mall where you can find everything on the 11th floor. In the basement there are restaurants... I recommend a small yakitori pub

Amazing bottom floor full of the most incredible food displays. I couldn't choose what to eat. Never go past this place. Underground access via station. Beat the heat or cold by moving sub ground is the best in japan.

This was a completely unexpected and speechless experience. We went to the store to buy Royce Chocolate and were looking for it in the B1 sweets section. The store was crowded and my infant dropped her favorite soft toy in the store. Since the store was crowded we searched for it a bit but in vain. We then reported it to the lost and found section and the Manager of the section noted my name and hotel phone number, since I didnt have a local Japan phone number as I am a tourist. We didnt expect but in the evening when the store was about to close, we received a call from the Lost and Found section manager that they found the toy. Unfortunately it was the store closing time so we couldn't go to the store and also it was not possible for us to pick it up from the store on the next day as we had an early morning departure from Kansai. To our surprise the super kind Manager offered to drop it to our hotel. We mentioned its not necessary and we can let it go, but he insisted to drop it. After 30mins the gentleman came to our hotel and handed over the soft toy. I was so overwhelmed by his kindness that I forgot to ask his name. This experience in Japan will stay with me for a lifetime. Never ever have I seen hospitality at this level. Japan😍.

The tax refund service was very poor. When receiving the refund in cash, we were given a lot of small change. We politely asked if they could round it up to 100 yen by adjusting some of the coins, since we have lots coins, but the staff refused. I suggest going to a different department store—others usually offer much better tax refund service.

Osaka Station, located within the shopping complex of Osaka Station City, is the biggest and busiest station in Western Japan. Like its neighbour Kyoto station (29 mins train ride away), Osaka station offers plentiful facilities and services to tourists and locals. The station is well liked by people as a great recreation and entertainment haven. The station itself has North Gate building and South Gate Building which are linked at ground floor by the station concourse. There are department stores, restaurants and many recreational facilities in both buildings. If you stay in nearby hotels, then you don’t need to venture out to any other area like Namba or Dontonbori for a huge and convenient shopping spree. You can go between the two buildings via two bridges on 3rd floor and 5th floor respectively. If you are a train enthusiast, then go to these two bridges and watch the trains coming and going on the rail tracks below. We spent a beautiful morning at the North Gate Building which is a 28 stories tall premises. Popular department stores like Lucua (my favourite store) and Isetan are located in this building. Shop till you faint. There are also a cinema, a fitness club and offices in this building complex as well. First we went up to the Toki-no-hiroba Plaza on the 5th floor of Osaka Station City. There is a bridge, decorated with 2 large clocks: one is gold and the other is silver in color. If you can get some snack like spaghetti, pizza, lasagna etc from the Caffe Bar Del Sole here on 5th floor. From this floor you can also see the train tracks and platforms below. We continued to visit the 10th floor of the North Gate Building. There we found a traditional Japanese style garden (called Yawaragi-no-niwa Garden; the meaning is peaceful garden). We saw many people enjoying the fresh air and warm sunlight peacefully whilst we were amused by the stunning city view calmly. Then we continued our exploration by going up an outside staircase to the Kaze-no-hiroba Plaza on 11th floor. Kaze-no-hiroba means “garden of the wind”. The plaza is quite true to its name because it is a long and breezy garden. However this garden is famous for its multiple and colorful fragrant flowers. A lady gardener was carefully tending the flowers and plants while we were there. She was really really focus on tending of the gorgeous flowers (see photos). Many young kids were playing joyfully at the water feature garden next to the flowers garden. There is a Tenku-no-noen Farm (heavenly plantation) located on 14th floor. It is a small rooftop farm 3 floors above the Kaze-no-hiroba Plaza. Well the name is really appropriate for this plantation! Why? Let me tell you. We would love to see the plantation, but we have to walk up an almost 70 degree angled long flight of stairs. When I looked up the long stairs I felt as if I were going up to heaven.😅😅I made 3 attempts but my legs went jelly and could not move so finally I gave up. For some unknown reasons, I felt the staircases were built in a scary straight angle (at least to me). I have climbed 12000 ft mountain in Tibet but it did not make me feel scary as I faced this only 3 floors high staircases. Unfortunately I chickened out after trying several attempts otherwise I would have taken some nice photos of the plantation to share with you here. All I know from my research is that a small vineyard and local vegetables herbs and fruits are planted in the plantation. Anyway I saw the same gardener from the 11th floor garden walked up elegantly and relaxingly up the “stairway to heaven” shortly after I quit walking up the stairs. Last but not least let’s explore the South Gate Building. You can find Daimaru department store and Hotel Granvia and Taiyo-no-hiroba Plaza (plant of the sun). I find that all the big train stations such as Kyoto, Tokyo and Osaka stations have provided many great entertainment and recreational facilities for people to enjoy and explore.

If you are new to this building, you gonna get lost. But exploring here is fun. Shops everywhere and food everywhere.

Too crowded... The city lives here and so to go somewhere can be impossible time to time. Everything you can find here, shopping 🛍️💗 eating etc. Osaka is not my type city and exactly different than Tokyo and Kyoto but in spite of this the city left good memories on me.

This is a very busy station, for traveler that are not seasoned, you better know where you are going and be ready to navigate a sea of people. If you are catching the Shinkasen be sure to get there early, They depart on time. We cut it to close and missed our train, because our city train was delayed due to something on the track

There are a few visual attractions to take pictures of, lots of food option in the basements.

This is a very busy place but easy to find your way because of the signage Saw an unusual escalator for the first time in my life that I nicknamed Rollercoaster Escalator. Wish I could have known in advance to take better photos :)

Fairly busy, but great staff that are extremely nice and helpful even though I dont speak Japanese. And the set up of the station and signs is set up great to make it easily understandable!!

was lucky to have a chance to ride the Ferris wheel on the top floor of the mall shortly after it opened, no line at all. The view of Osaka was beautiful, especially on a clear sunny day. The cabin was very stable even when we moved around inside. It was a peaceful, nice experience. I can only imagine how amazing it must be at night.

Beautiful each time I come here, but the be honest I hope they put off the lights under the seat because it makes reflection in the windows and it shows in photos, and if they could clean the windows higher it would be wonderful so we have a transparent 100% arigato gozaimasu

It’s a mall for the young ; trendy and upbeat . Apart from the alluring heights of the Red Ferris Wheel ; my only other reason for visiting the mall …. Is the likes of the Tokyo characters shops . I visited the Moomin shop which is filled with variety products that a Moomin fan will deemed as a “must to visit “ spot.

Large shopping center with a huge Ferris wheel up top, views were astonishing and the variety of shops inside were also amazing, sat down for a parfait as well as rode on the Ferris wheel. There were also ACG shops inside, with the Jump shop and detective Conan cafe being the most recognizable.

Ferris wheel best view at Umeda and sitting time for 1 round take-time around 10 minutes. Be careful for payment Ferris wheel ticket that accept cash only.

Great shopping center in Osaka! The shops do have a big variety of products and there are as well some restaurants on the higher floors. The ferris wheel is another awesome experience, especially at night, because the view on the city is stunning in the evening! The shopping center is easily accessible on foot from Umeda Station, about 10 minutes.

where is unnecessary hyper on this area if you’ve got nothing to do and you’ve got lots of money waste you could just go and check it out else. There’s no need for this. For people who are interesting in shopping, there are many shopping places around it and a bit of food you’ll find and Starbucks is nearby

If you got Osaka Amazing Pass, the entrance would be free. Just show the QR code and they will give you an ticket access. The museum is located on the 8th floor. Its very organize flow in the museum. You will have nostalgic feel of going back in time during the edo period of how the people live that time. There is a stortly telling presentation which is great to listen. Also, there is rental kimono if you want that more historical vibe of the place for reasonable price. Visit this Museum if you like historical stuff and edo era Japan.

A fun indoor experience for the whole family. This is my second time to this Museum and I love going mostly for the indoor outdoor experience. For a small fee you can wear you caught up and walk around the indoor City in the museum for 30 minutes. The staff is incredibly helpful and helps you wear the Yukata. I love how the ceiling shows all the different times of the day when you're walking around the indoor city.

A nice little museum that documents evolution of housing in Osaka. I really liked the 1:1 replica of a typical neighbourhood during the Edo (?) period. They simulate both day and night scenarios, and you can enter some of the houses and shops. If you like diaoramas, you will love this museum. There are scaled miniature models featuring different eras of housing at the 8th sty.

I got the ticket with the special exhibition. The special exhibition was very simple probably not worth the extra. However, the main exhibition hall was impressive. They have simulation of day and night, as well as day with thunder shower! Get the audio guide for the full experience. Also watch the video that will be played every 30mins or so. The videos were nicely done. Enjoyed the trip here.

An interactive museum where you can dress up in old kimonos and walk around a simulated old era Japan, as well as having multiple photoshopping locations. Museum also has souvenir shops and overall a great immersive experience.

This museum is an amazing place to witness the housing and life style of Osaka residents few centuries back. The museum has several model houses built the ancient way, decorated with items and home goods products of that time. They play a short movie every 15-20 minutes to explain the historical aspect of each of the house in the museum, including annual festivals and rituals that residents used to follow. It takes about 30 minutes to explore the space. They also have kimono rental here. I have seen some visitors renting them to take photos around the houses. After existing the houses, the museum has few more section and exhibitions related to growth and modernization of Osaka city. There’s also a small museum shop and restrooms after existing this area. Overall it was a nice, and more importantly indoor, place to visit to learn plenty about history of Osaka.

It’s inside a mall (?) top floor. There’s no line when we arrived. We used Osaka Amazing Pass so did not have to purchase tickets. Cool museum to show old Osaka life style. They have a short film and kimono experience if you would like to. It’s mainly display houses and items. Some you can actually go inside the houses. They have tours if you wish to sign up. We spent maybe 1 hour there. Experiencing and feeling the old city gives another taste among the modern city we have lived

The place was a bit hard to locate but definitely worth the effort. The balls were perfectly cooked and generously loaded with spring onion and various sauces. I had the best Takoyaki ever. Highly recommended!

We went for an afternoon snack around 4 pm and the line was huge, but it moved fast — we only waited about 10 minutes. We chose the takeout option, so we got served even quicker. Got the 8-piece takoyaki for under 800 JPY an absolute steal! Freshly made, super tasty, with a big piece of octopus inside. Great snack, great spot, totally worth the wait.

Though the waiting line looks long but it only took 10 minutes to wait and I think the time I spent was worthwhile. The takoyaki with scallion is amazing probably is the best takoyaki I've ever eaten

Did not disappoint. Watched Mark Wiens YouTube video and tried it out myself. Came early at slightly after 10AM and the queue was ok. We waited for about 20mins. Great experience

Hanadako is a popular takoyaki shop located in the Osaka New Umeda Shokudo-gai, conveniently situated next to the train station. The shop constantly attracts crowds of people eager to enjoy their delicious takoyaki. You have the option to dine in or take out, with takeout typically being faster. For dine-in, you’ll have to wait until seats are available. The seating is limited to a small standing counter that accommodates 8-9 people. After placing your order, you can enjoy your takoyaki while watching the chef skillfully prepare them, creating a lively atmosphere. We ordered 10 takoyaki for just 1050 yen, which is very affordable. The takoyaki comes topped with a generous amount of green onions and mayonnaise, forming a literal “mountain” of toppings. The takoyaki themselves are delicious — crispy on the outside, soft and gooey on the inside, with tender, chewy octopus pieces. You can also add chili powder (which isn’t too spicy) for an extra kick, transforming the flavor in a delightful way. Overall, this is a highly recommended spot, and it’s clear why it’s so popular!

Great Takoyaki! Flavorwise, it was fantastic. The octopus portion in each Takoyaki was good. I just wished it was a lot more crispy on the exterior. Take note that if you are ordering from here, the eating-in option means standing by their store to eat which may require about 5-15 minutes of waiting. While the take away option requires you to leave anywhere near the station as you are not allowed to eat at the premises.

Went within 30min of opening, 15 min wait. Counter setup allowed us to see the process. Ordered both original and with green onions. The taste was flavourful, including the fresh green onions. Planned to go back again!

Ordered the deluxe yakisoba and Okonomiyaki. Both were good and was a cool experience. Minimum of 1 order per person. Not allowed to take photos of the kitchen area

⚠️ at least order one item per person⚠️ English mean available with pictures for some of items, starting from ￥880 Okonomiyaki taste good while Negiyaki is a bit dry without topping and sauce like mayonnaise on top. Food served on the heating panel on every table in whole piece and served yourself.

Great service, waitress always refill the ice water without prompting. However no photos of the main grill. One person one okonomiyaki was just nice and does not make you feel too full. Taste wise - flour amount was ok and quite substantial ingredients.

They are known for negi yaki (green onions instead of cabbage). I ordered the most popular suji negi yaki, while it doesn’t have much meat inside, so probably should go with another option clearly stating more meat ingredient. Yakisoba is delicious, strongly recommended. Also note that no pictures of the kitchen.

Great restaurant serving negiyaki which is basically spring onion version of the okonomiyaki! The taste is interesting for those who have not tried. I highly recommend but I still prefer the original okonomiyaki because it is much more tastier. Spring onion version taste like eggy with lots of spring onion taste. Not much sauce taste. Staff of the store is very good and friendly, can speak English as well. Long queue as it’s popular with Japanese as well as tourist. Side note, you will stink after eating with smell of stick to your clothing. Best to eat late at night.

If you like Negi (Japanses spring onion), then you might like this place. Negiyaki replaced cabbage in okonamiyaki with Negi, and so it has a softer texture. This store is famous and can be really busy, so you may have to queue up a bit. Or you can have a late dinner to avoid the crowds. You can make the order once when you enter the store, so make sure you order enough for yourself. 1 main item is usually enough for one person, but you can do with an extra side dish, and a large eater might need 1.5 potion.

We had one special beef and Konjac Okonomyiaki and one shrimp Negiyaki, which is basically the same pancake but replaced cabbage in okonamiyaki with Negi (green onions). We liked the beef Okonomyiaki more than the Negiyaki though (maybe because it had soy sauce and mayo on top which gives it more flavor) This restaurant can be very busy, so you might have to queue up. Also during these busy times, you’ll have to make your order before entering the store, and once you make your order you cannot add anything else, so make sure you order enough for yourself. We liked it very much and would recommend the place

That was the best bowl of ramen I’ve ever had. As good as, or better than the spots you have to wait in long lines for. The staff was so kind and friendly, I will come back any time I am in Osaka. I ordered the spicy miso, my wife ordered the spicy soy sauce and the picture is of hers.

Best ramen I've ever had, coming from someone who's come to Japan three times and tried 20+ different places! The ramen is crafted perfectly and expertly, each ingredient is amazing on its own. The meat is tender, the egg is so delicious and creamy, the noodles are the perfect size and hardness, and the soup is just DELICIOUS! The spicy miso is a MUST TRY - I don't typically have spicy soups, but it was so flavourful delicious. We had to come back multiple times. The waitstaff are so kind and helpful. The owner is very passionate about what he does, and it's reflected in these perfect bowls of ramen.

Great ramen, the taste is exquisite and rich. The owner is very friendly. There are aprons, so you don't get dirty.

Good ramen, I ordered the second most flavour which is spicy miso port ramen, not too spicy. ramen absorbed all the taste of the soup. but the soup is bit salty at the bottom. U may need to wait in line in the weekends lunch time.

We visited this Ramen spot after a train ride into Osaka from Kyoto. This was thr best ramen we have had since being in Japan! A flavourful spicy miso broth topped with succulent thinly sliced pork, a jammy egg and bouncy noodles. We were also impressed by the free accompaniments and additions (ginger, garlic, etc) which you can add to your ramen. The service was top notch, a very friendly and welcoming resturant. Highly recommend getting your ramen fix here whilst in Osaka :)

Had lovely Beef Ramen here, served by helpful lady, as ordering macbine was a new thing to me. Very generous serving.

I was strolling around and so lucky to find this yummy ramen, this is so tasty and meaty, the staff are so friendly… sooo it is must visit if you are staying or visiting Osaka

best takoyaki I've ever had. delicious soft inside. generous pieces of squid inside. hot and fresh

The food was okay overall, but nothing really stood out. It wasn’t bad, just pretty average and lacked that special touch or unique flavor. If you're looking for something memorable or exciting, this might not be the place, but it could work for a quick, simple meal.

Went for the 8 pcs and the takoyaki were freshly cooked. There is seating in the shop and the staff were very thoughtful to provide small plates for us to share the takoyakis

There options to pick 8 or 12 takoyaki. I got 8 with 4 different flavours. I already ate some before taking a photo. The takoyaki has a lot of flavour and has a creamy texture. Amazing takoyaki and would come back for more. There is some seating inside for about 8 people or so and some standing tables.

They say they produce the best in whole Japan. From my point of view it is true!

They have indoor seating if you need a break! Takos are not bad!

Decent takoyaki with big piece of octopus. However the sauce really lack depth

This island in the middle of the busy city is a good place to relax. The rose garden, from early summer to autumn is colourful and scented. The old, brick-built city hall and ceramic museum are also worth a visit. If you like jogging or walking, you start at the park and, without having to deal with cars, go on foot all the way to the Yodo River and beyond (as far as Kyoto!).

Yesterday was wonderful day. The sun was bright and out. It was breezy and really good to be out. I went to Nakanoshima Rose Garden, the roses were beautiful. There was an event held yesterday, there were foods stalls, music, and some performances. It was nice to see a lot of people enjoying all and a little nature. It was by the river with lots of restaurants and cafe’s around. I enjoyed the a little picnic at Nakanoshima Lawn Square, read a book and just enjoyed the breeze and beautiful view. I think it’s perfect for family and friends.

A must visit rose park during May when the roses are in full bloom - you can smell roses all around the park, and there’s so many different beautiful variants. We visited both during the day and during the night, it’s equally enjoyable. Also, make sure you take a stroll along the river, there’s a lot of cafes and things to see.

after finishing my coffee at Brooklyn, I visited this park. it’s located just across the coffee shop, separated by a river, so it was within walking distance. when I got to the park, some of the flowers were already in bloom. it was so beautiful, the flower beds were full of vibrant colors. everyone was taking pictures of them. the park is also perfect if you just want to chill on the grass or go for a run. I wish I had worn my workout clothes, I definitely would’ve gone for a run in that beautiful green space.

Nakanoshima Park (中之島公園) is a serene oasis in the heart of Osaka, offering a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The park is beautifully landscaped with lush greenery, seasonal flowers, and wide open spaces that make it ideal for a leisurely walk or a peaceful afternoon. The paths are well-maintained and provide lovely views of the river on both sides, with plenty of benches to sit and relax while watching the boats go by. For those looking to unwind, the park has a calm and tranquil atmosphere, making it a great spot for a quiet stroll or even a picnic. It’s especially lovely during spring when the roses are in full bloom at the rose garden. The blend of natural beauty and urban surroundings creates a relaxing environment that is perfect for couples, families, or anyone needing a break. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Osaka and seeking a peaceful retreat in the middle of the city!

What a wonderful place, the park, the river, the buildings and how clean and well organised!

It's a truly beautiful park, and although many roses in the rose garden have already withered, you can still enjoy their lovely fragrance. If I had visited a month earlier, I think the scenery would have been absolutely stunning.

Visited for the exhibit ‘Celadon Masterpieces from China and Korea’ in September 2025. They also house a permanent collection of amazing Korean ceramics from the Rhee Byung-Chang Collection. If possible, check out moco-chan, an adorable Korean tiger they’ve animated from a piece of porcelain from the second half of the 18th century in the current exhibit.

We discovered the museum through Google Maps because we were heading to the bookstore near there. We went on September 21st (Sunday) around 4 p.m there was no one in line and few people inside. The adult ticket cost about €12, which we thought was expensive considering the contents. We really liked the building's interior architecture. And the cafe next door where we had lunch. Regarding the exhibition, I have no criticism. You can see it well in 30 minutes; there weren't any outstanding works. Overall, if you have free time, I recommend visiting, but perhaps without going into the exhibition.

A beautiful museum for those interested in ceramics and Chinese and Japanese culture. Some items date back to B.C., which is quite impressive. The museum is also equipped with a highly advanced anti-earthquake system. Photography is allowed. No need to buy tickets in advance. They accept both card and cash and there is also a locker room to store your items for 100 yen.

Passed by, didn't have time to go in, but spent a while avoiding the clean details of the architecture from the outside. The contrasting steel stair care against the tiles facade made for an interesting composition.

Such a stunning museum, lovely building, incredible display cases and galleries and a first rate collection presented beautifully. I also love the gimmicky café products based off items from the collection, so much fun!

Visited during the Celadon exhibition, learnt about the historic value and significance of ceramics in ancient society.

Lovely experience. 12 galleries in total - including a wall of just snuff boxes. A beautiful collection of ceramics. Wonderful cafe with some very unique desserts made to reflect some key ceramic pieces

(Translated by Google) Hattori Tenjingu Shrine is worshipped as the god of the feet. It is said that it started when the god of medicine, Sukunahikona no Mikoto, was enshrined in a small shrine. On his way to Dazaifu, where he was exiled, Sugawara no Michizane was attacked by a foot ailment, and after praying at the shrine for recovery, he was cured and was able to travel to Dazaifu safely. It seems that Michizane is also enshrined here. Incidentally, the sacred tree of Tenjingu Shrine grows on the platform of Hattori Tenjin Station, the nearest station.

I received a straw sandal-patterned red seal. According to the shrine's stage directions, before being demoted to Dazaifu, the god of learning, Sugawara no Michizane, prayed to the spirit of Uona for his foot ailment. Miraculously, Sugawara's foot pain and swelling were cured shortly afterward. Legend has it that Sugawara set off again to Kyushu, and arrived safely in Dazaifu, hence the name "god of feet." (Original) 🏃‍♂️‍➡️足の神様です。江戸時代、多くの🏃‍♀️‍➡️飛脚が訪れたことにちなんで飛脚マラソンが神社⛩️のゆかりにちなんで行われます。わらじ柄の御朱印を記帳しました。神社のト書きによると学問の神様【菅原道真公】が大宰府へ左遷される前にご自身の足の病気を魚名公の霊に祈願された。すると不思議にも間もなく菅公の足の痛みやむくみは治った。菅原公はふたたび九州へと旅立たれ、無事に大宰府へ到着された言伝えが足の神様の由来です。

(Translated by Google) This shrine is located less than a five-minute walk from Hattori Tenjin Station. Surrounded by residential areas, the grounds are not particularly large, and it takes only 30 minutes to walk around them. The nearby railway and busy roads mean that it can get a little noisy during the day, weekdays and weekends alike. However, because it's located far from downtown Osaka, the number of visitors is not particularly high, even on weekends. As the name suggests, "Tenjin," like other Tenjin shrines, the subdued vermilion color of the worship hall's pillars and beams stands out beautifully. Every corner of the grounds is kept immaculate, demonstrating the longstanding devotion of the local residents. It's a great place to visit while strolling around the area. Legend has it that when Sugawara no Michizane was demoted to Dazaifu and was struck by beriberi on his way to his post, he prayed for recovery and immediately recovered, which is why he became revered as the "god of feet." Perhaps for this reason, players who play sports that mainly use their legs, especially Gamba Osaka players, visit this shrine to pray for injury prevention and victory. This shrine is located less than a five-minute walk from Hattori Tenjin Station. Surrounded by residential neighborhoods, the grounds are not very large, and simply walking around the entire site takes less than 30 minutes. Because rail tracks run nearby and busy roads surround the area, you can sense some noise during the day on both weekdays and weekends. Still, since it's away from central Osaka, the number of worshippers remains relatively low, even on holidays. As the name "Tenjin" suggests, the shrine shares the same style as other Tenjin shrines, with the subdued yet vivid vermilion color of its pillars and beams standing out beautifully. The grounds are kept clean and well-maintained down to the smallest corners, clearly showing how long and deeply the shrine has been cherished by local residents. It may be worth visiting as part of a neighborhood walking route. According to tradition, when Sugawara no Michizane was demoted to Dazaifu and fell ill with beriberi on the way, he prayed here for recovery. soon regained his health, and since then the shrine has been venerated as a place to worship the "God of Legs". Because of this, many athletes - especially players from the local soccer team Gamba Osaka - visit to pray for injury prevention and success in matches. (Original) 服部天神駅から徒歩5分も満たないところにある神社です。住宅街に囲まれており、境内の敷地はそれ程大きくはなく、周遊するだけであれば30分と要しません。近隣を鉄道が通り、また車の行き来も多い道路に囲まれているため、日中は平日休日問わずやや喧騒を感じますが、それでも大阪市街地から離れている分休日でも参拝客はそれ程多くはありません。 名称に『天神』とあるように、他の天神の神社と同様に、拝殿の柱や梁のやや落ち着いた色合いの朱色がとても良く映えます。境内の隅々に至るまで綺麗に保たれており、長い年月近隣住民にとても親しまれているのがよく分かります。周辺散策のコースの一つとして訪れてみるといいかもしれません。 菅原道真が大宰府に左遷され任地に赴く過程で脚気に襲われた際、平癒祈願をしたところたちまち快復したことから、『足の神様』として崇敬を受けるようになった、という言い伝えがあります。それもあってか、主に脚を使うスポーツ、特にガンバ大阪の選手の怪我防止や必勝祈願としてこの神社に参拝に訪れるのだそうです。 This shrine is located less than a five-minute walk from Hattori Tenjin Station.

(Translated by Google) Visited on October 26, 2025. I went to pray around 2pm, and the place was lively with children carrying the mikoshi (portable shrine). I felt a bit of energy and went to pray. I also received a temple seal and prayed for good health. Although it's in front of the station, the atmosphere is very nice and relaxing. Maybe next time I'll come around New Year's! It was a great visit. (Original) 2025/10/26訪問です。 14時頃お参りに訪問しましたがお神輿を担ぐ子供達で活気がありました。元気を分けてもらいお参りへ。御朱印も頂き健康祈願です。駅前ですが非常に良い雰囲気で落ち着くおもむきです。次回はお正月かな！良きお参りでした。

They had great music playing, mostly punk/pop punk and some T Swift obv, the gentleman working was HOT, hilarious, and super friendly, and the okonomiyaki was so savory and saucy and delicious! You get your own drinks and squeeze a rubber chicken when you do which was very fun. The decor was weird and funky and once again PUNK af. Love it.

Completely unique experience. The managers friendliness and energy is unmatched and the food is awesome. I’m a big eater but couldn’t finish a single serve of the delicious okonomiyaki. Truly one of a kind experience that everyone should try while visiting Osaka!

The place is run by only one person. Although he is quite nice and energetic (ocasioanlly too energetic), he cannot take care of everything. The place is pretty much self-serve and self clean. There was no soap in the bathroom, and the place overall is far from clean. Given the tight space and lack of big tables, I recommend this place for groups of at most 3 people, unless you don't have an issue sitting at different tables. Also, some of the spaces are quite tight and uncomfortable. The food is quite good and plenty.

Nice guy, good vibes and very good food! Lange portions. He made the food vegetarian for me. Thanks for that! We had a lot of fun there. Do not press "yes" when the ordering-machine asks you about surprises unless you can handle it :D. We did not eat the surprise (I think it is only when you order a side dish) but we were really surprised :D

Such a fun experience! Very small place full of character, there is one incredible guy who welcomes guests, cooks, cleans, and all with a smile on his face. One of the few places where you can get a great vegetarian okonomoyaki! The portions are huge and cheap. We loved it and we are recommending it to everybody. A tip: he is very generous with the okonomoyaki sauce, ask for sauce on the side if you’re not a big fan of it

My dad found this place when we were in Osaka and we decided to have dinner here. It was literally the most fun, interesting, and welcoming experience we’ve had in Osaka. The food was glorious, the atmosphere of the place was so fun, and the owner was so kind and friendly! My dad spoke to him in English and the owner did his best to communicate back, bless his heart. Prices of food were good, and it was a lot of food! I’m definitely coming back when I return to Japan at the end of this year!

After eating at western-style restaurants in Tokyo that were very demure, so to speak, this high energy, cozy, and amazingly tasty spot was a breath of fresh air. Make sure you scan their QR code for instructions on how to order. It’s fun! While it appears gyoza wasn’t on the menu, a big highlight for me was they were able to modify a number of the dishes to be vegetarian. The yakisoba is killer, and the owner very kind and fun.

The experience started very well with the lunch set offering free servings of their in house ham served with a superb carrot dressing. Everything was going well until three of us who ordered the hamburger sets noticed a funny taste. The chef had forgotten to unwrap the plastic around the cheese and it had melted into the sizzle plate, causing a strange burnt taste and smell. We returned all three dishes half or less eaten. The manger apologized profusely but to our surprise didn't bring out fresh sets! He brought out, without asking a free dessert for each of us..we never ordered the dessert set in the first tolace so I have no idea how he thought we might be ok with that. I was in no mood for dessert when I hadn't eaten my meal yet. It was a formal function I was attending and didn't want to kick up a fuss so I let it go. However they should've comped the three meals or re-cooked and served them. We were charged for them as usual and given some free curry ( boil in a bag type) on our way out. Quite disappointed with how they delay with that and I had to eat lunch again after. Definitely would not go again especially as lunch starts at around 4,000 yen per plate there.

(Translated by Google) I used it to celebrate my niece's entrance into junior high school. Good times fill up quickly, so early reservations are recommended. Playing the piano will make your time even more elegant. I chose a spring celebration dinner course. First, the classic ham hors d'oeuvre It's still super delicious. Then, seasonal salad and sakura sea bream carpaccio. This also had a plum scent and was well received by my mother. Beef consommé soup, black beans, and main dish The steak is half and half fillet and sirloin. The size is definitely M size... It's quite a volume and will fill your stomach. My nephew, who is in 2nd year of junior high school, was eating a L size sirloin, it was scary lol It had a lot to offer: rice, pickled plums, strawberry parfait, and coffee or tea. It was a great service to be able to use the cake service to celebrate, and also have family photos taken and developed right away. I will use it again (Original) 姪っ子の中学合格祝いで利用しました 良い時間は埋まってしまうので早め予約がオススメです ピアノ演奏がさらに優雅な時間を過ごさせてくれます 春のお祝いディナーコースにしました 先ずは定番の、ハムのオードブル 変わらず最高に美味しいです。 それから季節のサラダに桜鯛のカルパッチョ こちらも梅が香って母親にもウケが良かった ビーフコンソメスープ、黒豆、そしてメインの ステーキは、ヘレとサーロインのハーフ＆ハーフ サイズは確かMサイズ、、、 結構なボリュームでお腹ぱんぱん 中２の甥っ子はサーロインのLサイズをぺろっと食べてました、恐ろしいw ごはん、梅干し、苺のパフェ仕立てにコーヒーまたは紅茶と、盛りだくさんな内容でした。 お祝いにケーキサービスも利用し、家族写真も撮ってすぐに現像したものをいただけたのは嬉しいサービスですね また利用させていただきます

(Translated by Google) I visited during lunchtime on a weekday. Reservations were seated one after the other. I was shown to a seat near the piano by the window, where I was able to enjoy a relaxing meal while enjoying the greenery and live music. The easy lunch was 80 grams of skirt steak. I wish I had a little more meat, but the accompanying vegetables and ham appetizer filled me up quite a bit. The seasonal rice dish was chestnuts, a choice I made without hesitation. The atmosphere was also great, making for a very satisfying lunch. (Original) 平日ランチタイムに訪問。予約されたお客様が続々と着席される。窓際のピアノ近くに案内され、緑と生演奏を楽しみながらゆったり食事がいただけた。 おてがるランチのハラミ80グラム。もう少しお肉が食べたいなと思ったが、付け合わせの野菜や前菜のハムでかなりお腹がいっぱいになりました。 季節のごはんは栗。迷わずチョイス。雰囲気もあいまり、満足いくランチとなりました。

(Translated by Google) This is a restaurant where you can eat steak while listening to live piano music. The interior of the restaurant has a luxurious feel, and the seats are spacious and comfortable. I used it for lunch. Ordered a full course for lunch. The roast beef is crispy and you can adjust the doneness of the steak yourself. What impressed me personally was the ham. I realized that good ham is so different, and when I was checking out, I saw ham on sale next to the cash register, so I bought it! We can also accommodate requests and surprises for piano performances, so it's perfect for celebrations and birthdays! So I wanted to give it a ⭐︎5, but I couldn't deny that the young clerk at the hall had a part-time job. Since I was using the service at a higher price, I was looking for a higher level of service, but I was disappointed that it felt like the level was not much different from that of a family restaurant. (Original) ピアノの生演奏を聴きながらステーキを食べられるお店です。 店内は高級感があり、席と席の間も広くゆったりと過ごすことができます。 お昼に利用しました。 お昼のフルコースを注文。 ローストビーフは歯切れが良く、ステーキは自分で焼き加減を調節して食べます。 個人的に感動したのはハムでした。 良いハムってこんなに違うんだと実感し、会計の際、レジ横にハムが売っていたので購入しました！ また、ピアノの演奏はリクエストやサプライズにも対応していただけるのでお祝いや誕生日にもぴったりです！ ですので⭐︎５にしたかったですが、ホールの若い店員さんのバイト感が否めなかったです。 高めのお値段で利用しているので一つ上のレベルのサービスを求めてしまっていましたがファミレスなどとあまり変わらないレベルに感じてしまって残念でした。

(Translated by Google) It had a nice atmosphere with its spacious interior and piano playing. I arrived early, but since they are relatively strict about reservation times, I was asked to wait until that time and was made to wait in a space inside the store. After ordering, the appetizer of prosciutto was served, but it took quite some time for the main meat to arrive, so I ended up feeling half full. I am very satisfied with the quality of the food. Everything was delicious so I can't really complain. There were several groups of people from three generations, from small children to grandparents, visiting the store. It seems to be used for family events such as piano performances for birthday celebrations and cakes being carried out. I recommend it because it has a good atmosphere. (Original) 広々とした店内とピアノの演奏で良い雰囲気でした。気持ち早めに到着しましたが、予約時間に比較的厳格なので、お時間までお待ちくださいと店内のスペースで待たされました。注文後、前菜の生ハムの料理は提供されましたが、その後のメインのお肉までがかなり時間が空いたため、お腹が中途半端に膨れてしまいました。 料理のクオリティはとても満足です。どれもおいしかったので文句のつけようがありません。 小さな子供から祖父祖母までの3世代で来店している方が何組かいました。誕生日のお祝いのピアノ演奏でケーキなどを運んでいたりとファミリーのイベントで利用されているようです。雰囲気が良いのでオススメです。

(Translated by Google) The live piano performance is wonderful. Since it was a Sunday, it was busy so I wasn't able to enjoy it to the fullest, but I think you can have a relaxing time on weekdays. The food is served in a timely manner, even when the restaurant is nearly full. The meat was soft and very delicious. (Original) ピアノの生演奏が素敵です。　日曜日なので賑わっていたため堪能はできなかったですが平日ならゆっくりとした時間を過ごせると思います。 料理の提供も満席に近い状態でも流れるようにとても良いタイミングで出できます。 お肉は柔らかくとても美味しかったです。

(Translated by Google) The young girl who came to take our order made the same mistake over and over again, so it took a long time to process it. I think she was a part-timer, but I think it would be better if an experienced waiter took the order. I was annoyed by the order, and there were other things bothering me, like dirty tablecloths and sticky floors. It used to have a high-class atmosphere, but now it's all a disappointment. (Original) オーダーを取りに来た若い女の子が何度も同じ間違いをしてオーダーにかなり時間がかかりました。アルバイトだと思うのですがオーダーは慣れた店員がする方が良いと思います。 オーダーで嫌な気分になった所で色々気になりテーブルクロスは汚い床はベトベト 以前は高級な雰囲気だったのに全て残念です

(Translated by Google) I visited LA VERITA, the restaurant behind the much talked about Four Toxins Removal, for the first time. ✨ The restaurant is located on the basement floor. The atmosphere is lovely as you enter the door. Today, I ordered the Four Toxins Removal Omakase Lunch. ① First, the vegetables. 😊 The vegetables are steamed at 400°C. While they're delicious without the sauce, they also come with tomato sauce. The colorful vegetables were all soft and fluffy, pairing perfectly with the tomatoes. It was delicious. 🤤 ② Next, the cold corn soup. The soup had a subtle sweetness and wasn't too cold. ③ Bread made from rice flour. Two adorable loaves. Both were firm and hard on the outside, slightly soft on the inside, with a hint of salt and sweetness. They were delicious. They might even taste better with the soup. 🤙 ④ The main course was octopus and summer vegetable pasta. The pasta had firm noodles and a slightly bitter flavor. The vegetables included were, I believe, octopus, bitter melon, eggplant, corn, cauliflower, and tomato. I think the flavor might be a matter of personal preference. ⑤Finally, dessert: chocolate cake and hot coffee. The chocolate cake was beautiful, with a detailed cat design painted in cocoa on the plate. The taste was bitter with a hint of sweetness. It was chewy and had a lingering flavor. I had black coffee. It was just delicious. ✨ Overall, I'm grateful for the excellent service, especially since there aren't many restaurants that offer a "4"-free option. The service was attentive. If I had to choose, it would be great to try the carbonara or meat. I'd definitely come back. 🙂‍↕️ I also bought some rice flour donuts to take home. They were sesame and chocolate. They're best eaten slightly warm. (Original) あの話題の四毒抜きをやられているLA VERITAさんに初めてお邪魔しました。✨ お店は地下一階です。 扉を開けるとお店の雰囲気も良く、 いい感じです。 本日は4毒抜きおまかせランチをお願いしました。 ①まずは、野菜です。😊 400 °cスチームを使用して野菜を蒸しれいます。つけなくても美味しいですがトマトソースもついています。彩り鮮やかな野菜はどれもホクホクしてトマトに良くあいます。美味しかったです。🤤 ②次は、とうもろこしの冷製スープ スープは、ほのかな甘みがあり冷えすぎず美味しかったです。 ③米粉で作ったパンです。可愛いパン2個でした。どちらもしっかりして外はハードで内側は少し柔らかくて塩と少し甘みがあり美味しくいただきました。スープにつけると美味しいかもしれないですね。🤙 ④メインはタコと夏野菜のパスタです。 パスタはややしっかりした麺でやや苦味の味付けのパスタでした。入っている野菜は、おそらくですがタコ、ゴーヤ、ナス、トウモロコシ、カリフラワー、トマト。味付けには好みが分かれると思いました。 ⑤最後はデザート、ガトーショコラとホットコーヒー。ガトーショコラは美しく猫の絵が細かくココアで皿に描かれています。味は苦味にやや甘みがある感じです。歯ごたえがありじんわりと美味しさが出てきます。コーヒーはブラックです。普通に美味しいです。✨ 全体的な感想ですが、4毒抜きのレストランがないので非常に良かったのと感謝ですね。丁寧に接客していただきました。希望をいうとカルボナーラやミートを食べれたら最高です。 また、来たいと思います。🙂‍↕️ あと、持ち帰り用に米粉のドーナツを購入しました。ゴマとショコラ。少し温めて食べるのがベストです。

(Translated by Google) I visited to commemorate my daughter's graduation. It was a Saturday night in mid-March, but I made a reservation and visited. It didn't seem crowded, so I was able to enjoy my meal in a relaxed manner. A course meal, left to the chef's discretion. First, a plate of warm vegetables. The hot sauce is very rich and delicious. And white asparagus and prosciutto. The prosciutto tastes just right, not too salty. Firefly squid pasta and beef steak. The bread also had a unique texture and was very delicious. We finished off with the tiramisu that we had requested. All delicious and healthy. Also recommended for women. (Original) 娘の卒業の記念に伺いました。 3月半ばの土曜日夜ですが、予約して訪問。 混んでる様子はありませんでしたので、ゆったり食事できました。 コース料理で、シェフお任せ。 まずは、温野菜の皿。 温められたソースがとても濃厚で美味しい。 そしてホワイトアスパラと生ハム。 生ハムはしょっぱすぎずちょうどいいお味。 ホタルイカのパスタに、牛肉のステーキ。 パンも独特の舌触りでとても美味しかったです。 最後はリクエストしていたティラミスで締めました。 どれも美味しくヘルシー。 女性にもおすすめです。

(Translated by Google) Good evening. I'm the chairman. I found another good shop~ Located in Toyonaka, Hokusetsu, Osaka [LAVERITA]. The owner has trained in authentic Italy and recommends Italian food that is good for your body. He is also familiar with Italian wine and pairs it with food. This time I visited for lunch. Leggera course 1,480 yen appetizer, bread, focaccia, pasta, This is the course. Our recommended appetizer is the vegetable fondue made in a 400℃ steam oven. Steaming vegetables preserves their nutrients. The texture is good, and above all, the selected Gorgonzola sauce is rich. This is a high-class bagna cauda. Bread is focaccia and baguette. For pasta, choose bacon and mushroom cream sauce. The texture of al dente pasta gives it an authentic feel. Ah, I've never been there lol Bacon and mushrooms are definitely a good choice. Luxurious from noon. And I also ordered Dolce. Espresso with black tea pound cake and blueberry gelato. The pound cake went well with the sugar in the espresso. The less sweet gelato is also good. This time I visited by car, so next time I will visit by train so that I can have some wine. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal (*´∇｀*) (Original) こんばんは。 会長です。 またまたいいお店を見つけちゃいました〜 大阪北摂豊中にある 【LAVERITA】さん。 オーナーは本場イタリアの修行の末、からだにいいいイタリアンを推奨されています。 イタリアワインにも精通されていて料理とのペアリングも。 今回はランチで訪問。 レッジェーラコース 1,480円 前菜、 パン、フォカッチャ、 パスタ、 のコースです。 前菜はこちらのオススメ、400℃スチームオーブンを利用した野菜のフォンデュ。 野菜は蒸すことで栄養素がそのまま残ります。 食感もよく、何よりセレクトしたゴルゴンゾーラソースが濃厚。 こりゃ高級バーニャカウダーですね。 パンはフォカッチャとバケット。 パスタはベーコンとキノコのクリームソースをセレクト。 アルデンテのパスタはその食感に本場を感じます。 あっ、行ったことありませんが笑 ベーコンとキノコ、セレクトに間違いない。 お昼から贅沢です。 そして、ドルチェもオーダー。 紅茶のパウンドケーキとブルーベリーのジェラート添えにエスプレッソを。 パウンドケーキはエスプレッソの沈んだシュガーとの相性もよかったです。 甘さ控えめのジェラートもいい。 今回の訪問はクルマだったので、次回はワインをいただけるよう電車で訪問しようと思います。 美味しかったです。 ごちそうさまでしたー(*´∇｀*)

(Translated by Google) I visited her on my 10th wedding anniversary. The food is delicious. I also liked the explanations about cooking and alcohol. I like the atmosphere of this shop. My personal favorite is pasta and meat. The pasta is the one with Hokkaido octopus in it (lol) The meat is Kuroge Wagyu beef, Manganji chili peppers, potatoes, and Tsurumurasaki in a red wine sauce. I felt nothing but happiness. Try and compare Italian beers that are not often available in Japan. It was a good dinner. It's a bit of a walk from Toyonaka Station, but definitely check it out! This is a store I want to visit again! (Original) 10年目の結婚記念日にお邪魔しました。 料理美味しい。 料理やお酒に関する説明も好きでした。 雰囲気も好きなお店。 個人的にお気に入りは パスタとお肉。 パスタは北海道のタコが入ったやつ（笑） お肉は、黒毛和牛と万願寺とうがらし、じゃがいも、つるむらさきを赤ワインのソースで。 幸せしか無かった。 日本ではあまり飲めない、イタリアのビールを飲み比べ。 良いディナーでした。 豊中駅から少し歩きますが、是非！ また行きたいお店です！

(Translated by Google) I made a reservation for the lunch course for my wife's birthday month. The food was delicious, both meat and vegetables, and my 3-year-old son was eating all the vegetables.

(Original) 妻の誕生月にランチコースで予約をしました。 料理はお肉も野菜も全て美味しく、3歳の息子は野菜をパクパク食べていました。 スタッフさんも気さくな方々で対応も良く、大満足な記念日になりました♪ また利用したいと思います。

(Translated by Google) I had lunch. Vegetable fondue with porcini cream sauce! The sauce was rich and flavorful and delicious. The steamed vegetables also had a distinct flavor. The store was bright and spacious, and I was able to relax. (Original) ランチいただきました。野菜のフォンデュはポルチーニのクリームソースで！濃厚で旨味たっぷりのソース美味しかったです。スチーム野菜もそれぞれの味がしっかり感じられました。店内明るく広々としていて、ゆっくりできました。

A wonderland of greenery with adorable route and mild slope up and down, great for the runners for the elevation training. It possesses a massive land of woods with shades covering most of the pathway, as a joy walking in it during the summer heat.

I visited this place in the last few days of October. Some trees are beginning to change into autumn leaves. Place is full of locals and not very popular for tourists, mainly because of location but it’s accessible by train (Midosuji line) there are historic houses/buildings and the rest of the park is clean, peaceful and perfect for picnics.

Nice park with a lot of different spots to chill, walk, relax and enjoy a nature break. Amazing colors during the Fall, I specially liked the lights in the Gingko and Bamboo trees. Pay a visit to the open air Farm Museum nearby, really good experience there aswell.

Wide open area of greenery in the middle of Osaka. Lots of people and family in the weekend but you will not find it is packed since the area is so wide. Fun activities can be found here such as street bazaar, gardens, campings, barbeque, children playground, and many more. Very recommended place to have a healing.

The Japanese Folk Houses Museum in Hattori Ryokuchi Park is an architectural and cultural museum that relocates and exhibits typical 'minka' houses from the north-east to the south of Japan. Minka refers to the houses of the common people. Most of the houses on display here are farmhouses. Due to the long length of the Japanese archipelago, the climate differs greatly between the southern and northern parts of the country. As a result, the shapes of minka and the construction methods used vary greatly from region to region. In this minka garden, visitors can compare and learn about these regional differences. Minka is not very decorative, but you can feel the Japanese view of nature in the primitive and elegant appearance of the wooden structure.

I do jogging there. It is a good place for that if you circle around it with lot of shade, same if you just want to tbke walk. There is even a small bamboo area. If you go inside the park on evening the central plaza kind of become skater territory. Big playground to kids. So not so many shade if going in the center.

Such a big, clean park. There were some benches and tables for us to sit and eat. Playground for kids was very nice, too. My son had a great time here. We will definitely go back.

(Translated by Google) On the first floor, there is an Aeon supermarket, a famous butcher shop, and a yakiniku restaurant, and on the second floor, there are two huge restaurants: Uobe-san, the conveyor belt sushi restaurant with the best value for money, and Bikkuri Donkey, the best value for money! (Original) 一階にはイオンスーパーや有名精肉店や焼き肉店があり、二階の飲食店には、コスパ最強の回転寿司の魚べいさんや、みんな大好きコスパ最強びっくりドンキーの2大巨頭店舗があります！

(Translated by Google) It includes a supermarket, drug store, internal medicine, smartphone repair shop, photo studio, pet shop, barber shop, and restaurants. There are no clothing stores. I think Higopet is quite spacious. (Original) スーパー、ドラッグストア、内科、スマホ修理ショップ、写真スタジオ、ペットショップ、理髪店、飲食店などが入っています。衣料品店は入っていないです。 ひごペットはかなり広いと思います。

(Translated by Google) The restaurant is beautiful and the sushi itself is delicious. However, it gets crowded during dinner time on weekends, so it's best to make a reservation in advance. I sat in a booth near the entrance, but I was worried about the gazes of other customers waiting. (Original) キレイな店内でお寿司自体も美味しいです。ただ休日の夕飯時は混み合いますので、予め予約しておくのが吉です。 入口近くのボックス席に座りましたが、待ち合いされている他のお客さんの視線が気になりました。

(Translated by Google) Aeon opened in December 2022. It's not a huge shopping center like Aeon Mall, but more like Massvalu. I thought there would be a lot of bicycles because it's near a residential area, but it seems like there are a lot of people coming by car. Please note that you cannot directly turn right from the north side of 176. Aeon Food Style itself has a somewhat conscious selection and product display. If you scan the barcode at the cash register with a mobile device called Regigo, you can complete the product registration and pay by reading the QR code at the self-checkout register (QR alone does not complete the payment). Of course, you do not need to use Regigo. (Original) 2022年12月にオープンしたイオンです。イオンモールの様に巨大なショッピングセンターではなく、マッスバリュのようなサイズ感。住宅街近くで場所柄自転車が多いと思っていたのですが、クルマで来る人が多いようです。176北側からは直接右折進入できないので注意。イオンフードスタイル自体はちょっと意識高い感じの品揃えと商品展示。レジもレジゴーという携帯端末でバーコードをスキャンすれば、セルフレジでQRコードを読み込めば商品登録完了し支払いできます(QR単体で支払い完了ではありません)当然レジゴー使わなくてもOKです。

(Translated by Google) I was grateful that Aeon was offering such a big discount, and when I put some items with discount stickers on them in my basket, several staff members came out from the back and started sticking half-price stickers and price stickers on the remaining prepared foods. I asked if this was okay since they were the same products, and they firmly replied, "We don't put stickers on items that have been kept!". It was my first time using this store, and I hadn't kept them, and I had asked them if they were the same products, so I thought that was the wrong way to say it. I had no choice but to return them and exchange them for the prepared foods that had stickers on them, but they just took the items I had left behind and discarded them. Several other people had also been told this and returned their items, but they were also collecting them, so I wondered if they didn't want to give a discount and were intentionally putting stickers back on them. As I watched the staff members put the discount stickers on, they didn't start off with half-price stickers, but started with 10%, and then they put stickers on in small increments, and I watched from the back as the customers took them away. If a customer takes away a 10% discounted item, the remaining same item will be discounted by 20%. They changed the prices like that, and when the customer pointed it out, they refused and took the items back. If that's the case, they shouldn't have offered discounts in the first place, but I guess they're just trying to cover it up by saying they're a member of the SDGs. It wasn't just one employee, all the employees who put the discount stickers on were treated the same, and they kept their names secret, so it was clearly planned. What angered me was that they assumed I wanted to keep the items and said they wouldn't put them on, and by "keep," I mean putting in multiple items that don't have discount stickers and asking them to put stickers on them. I didn't stay there for hours, so I don't think it was the right way to say it. It was really unpleasant because other stores would properly put the stickers back on for me. (Original) イオンってここまで割引してくれるんだと有り難く割引シールの貼った物をカゴに入れていたら店員さん数人が裏から出て来て残ってる惣菜などに半額シール、金額シールを貼り始めたので同じ商品だしとこれもなりますか？と聞いたところ「キープされてた商品にはシール貼りませんから！」と強めに言われました。 私は初めてこの店舗を利用したしキープしてた訳でもなく同じ商品なんだからと聞いたのにその言い方はないよねと思いました。 仕方ないので戻して更に貼られていた惣菜と交換したところ、なんと私が置いた商品は廃棄扱いでそのまま裏に回収して行きました。 他にも何人か言われて断られて戻した物を同じく回収してたので、もしかして割引したくなくてわざとシール貼り直してる？と思いました。 店員さんが割引シールを貼ってるのを見てると最初から半額ではなく10%から始まり小刻みに割引シールを貼り客が取っていくのを裏から見てます。 客が10%割引の商品を持って行ったら残っていた同じ商品は20%割引になります。 そう言う感じで値段を変えていって客が指摘したら拒否し回収してました。 それなら初めから割引なんてしなければ良いのに一応SDGsに参加してるから建前だけでもと取り繕っているんですかね。 1人の店員だけでなく割引シールを貼ってる店員全て同じ対応で、それも名前を伏せてたので計画的なのは明らかです。 私が腹が立ったのはキープと決め付けて貼らないと言ったこと、キープって言うのは割引 シールが貼られてない商品を複数入れてシール貼りを要求することですよね。 何時間もそのためにいたわけではないですし物の言い方がなってないと思います。 他の店舗はちゃんとシール貼り直してくれるのに本当に嫌な思いしました。

Candle Road 2019, really colorful candle walk in the afternoon and night.

Will give 5 stars after the refurbishment of the long slide and the play tower it is on. It's a great park.

Awesome, super long slide for the little ones :) Good play area.

Great place with long sliders perfect for kids to enjoy.

Wow

Park with a long long slide that will make every kid longing to go back for it.

Nice

Tiny hotel buffet. High price. Average food.

(Translated by Google) My family and I used it on a Sunday afternoon. The customer service was hotel quality, so it was very good, and I don't think the atmosphere was bad. It was a shame that there weren't many types of dishes, but I think it can't be helped since the prices are low. I was doing MEAT FAIR, so there was a lot of meat, so I was satisfied with that. (Original) 日曜日のお昼に家族で利用させて頂きました。 接客はホテルクオリティーなのでとても良かったです、雰囲気も悪く無いと思います。 料理の種類が少ないのが残念でしたが値段が安いので仕方ないと思います。 MEAT FAIRやっていたのでお肉多めだったのでその点は満足出来ました。

(Translated by Google) Morning buffet was available. We will take care of the hotel properly. The number of items is small, so you can eat them all within the first or second week. The atmosphere of the venue is good, with some seats having good light from the windows. Some of the dishes were dirty and I felt a little depressed. It was very nice to have a freshly made omelet. (Original) モーニングビュッフェできました。キチンとホテルの対応をしていただけます。品数は少なめで1週目か2周目には全て食すことができるくらいです。会場の雰囲気は窓からの光が良い席もあります。お皿が汚れていたものがあり気分が少し下がりました。できたてのオムレツをつくってくれるのはとても美味しくてよかったです。

(Translated by Google) Frankly speaking, it's low quality. It's not the most delicious thing I've ever had. The main dish, the freshly grilled steak pictured here, is the worst (;´Д｀) It's crunchy and smells like red meat in curry or something.💦 If you're going to serve something like that, it's better to remove it from the menu 💦 I wonder if the others are buying really cheap low quality hors d'oeuvres and lining them up? The worst pattern is that if you use the main ingredient to attract attention, it will taste bad🤣 The person who thought this has no management talent🤣🤣 It's just damaging the company's image. From now on, I have the impression that Hankyu food is low quality and tasteless, so I will no longer go to Hankyu hotels. The staff is quick to respond, which is good, but if the food is like this, the restaurant itself won't get a good review, so it's a pity. I would have given it a 1 star rating, but I added 1 star because the staff's response was quick and attentive, so I'm not giving it a lenient rating. The taste is so great that only people with extremely poor tongues can satisfy it (　ﾟдﾟ) If I were to evaluate it based on taste alone, I'd say it's all you can eat for 1,500 yen. (Original) はっきり言って低クオリティー。 今までで1番美味しく無い。 メインでここのイメージ写真に載せてた焼き立てステーキは最悪( ；´Д｀) カチッカチのカスカスでカレーとかに入れる赤身肉みたいな血の臭さ💦 あんなん出す位ならメニューから消した方がいい💦 他のはめっちゃ安い低クオリティーのオードブル買って並べてるんかな？ メイン食材で人目引きつけといて行ったら不味いって1番ダメなパターン🤣 これ考えてた奴は経営の才能無いわ🤣🤣 会社のイメージ悪くしてるだけや💦 今度から阪急系の食事は低クオリティーで不味いってイメージが今回でついたからもう阪急系のホテルは行かない。 店員さんは対応早くて良いのに料理がこれだと店自体が良い評価されないから可哀想やな💦 評価は星1でも良いけど店員さんの対応は素早くて気が利くので星1追加したので評価は甘め。 超貧乏舌の人しか満足させられ無い程の味(　ﾟдﾟ) 味だけで評価したら1500円食べ放題かな。

(Translated by Google) Chagall, a restaurant located on the first floor of a historic hotel in Senri-Chuo Station that has been around since the 1970 World's Fair, is a buffet-style restaurant where you can enjoy menus tailored to seasonal themes. This time, I visited him on Father's Day. The theme is "Tropical & Spice". The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were all very kind. What struck me was that the store was very quiet. I thought it would be even more exciting if we played some passionate Latin background music to match the theme. (Original) 1970年万国博覧会とともに歩んできた千里中央駅にある歴史あるホテルの１階にあるレストラン「シャガール」はバイキングスタイルのお店です、季節のテーマに合わせたメニューが食べられます。 今回、父の日でお邪魔しました。テーマは「トロピカル＆スパイス」。 料理は申し分なくとても美味しかったですし、スタッフもとても親切な方々ばかりでした。 気になったのは、店内がとても静寂としていたこと。 テーマに合わせて、ラテン系の情熱溢れるBGMを流すなどすれば、もっと盛り上がるのではと思いました。

(Translated by Google) I'll be sad when the building is demolished in March of next year. I've been there a few times for the dinner buffet. Given my size, I can't eat much in one sitting, so I don't really think about getting my money's worth, but the meat dishes were tender and delicious. I took my time savoring all the desserts. I'd like to go again. (Original) 来年の3月で建物がなくなるのが寂しいです。 ディナーバイキングで何度か伺いました。体型の割に一度に食べられなくて元を取る発想自体持っていない私ですが、肉料理が柔らかくて美味しかった。デザートはゆっくり一通り味わいました。またもう一度行きたいと思います。

(Translated by Google) I went there as a birthday gift (if you are a member of the members club, you will receive a postcard). Will the main dish be beef steak? It was soft and delicious. There is a wide variety of Japanese and Western food, rice, and bread, so I think it's something people of all ages can enjoy. None of the products are instant or commercially available, and all of them are carefully made. There aren't many types of desserts, but I've eaten a lot by then, so it's just right for me. A small quantity of a high-quality dessert is better than a large quantity of mass-produced desserts. I've been there twice so far, and my impression is that most of the customers are groups of three. Grandmas and grandpas bring their children and grandchildren out to eat during their summer vacation, and the children are noisy and lively, but since it's Senri, it's less noisy than Osaka's aunties (except for groups). It was a small buffet for a hotel buffet, but it had a calming feel to it that made me want to go again. (Original) お誕生日特典で行きました(メンバーズクラブに入会しているとハガキが送られてきます)。 メインになるものは牛のステーキかな？柔らかくて美味しかったです。 和食や洋食ご飯ものやパンまんべんなくあって、老若男女が楽しめる内容になっていると思います。 インスタントや業務スーパー的なものもなく、どれも丁寧に作られています。 デザートは種類は少ないですが、それまでにたくさん食べているので、私は丁度良い位です。大量生産のデザートたくさんより質が良いもの少量で良いです。 客層は今まで2回行きましたが、3世帯連れが多い印象です。おばあちゃんおじいちゃんが、夏休みに子どもや孫を連れてお食事する、子どもは子どもらしい賑やかさはありますが、千里ですので大阪のおばちゃん、の騒がしさは少ないです(団体さんは別)。 ホテルのバイキングとしてはこじんまりとしていますが、何か落ち着くし、また行きたいと思わせてくれるバイキングでした。

The best yakiniku place if you have some money to splurge or just celebrating a special occasion. The staff is one of the best in Japan hands down. Great experience there. Will be going back!

Loved it! Everything from the decor to the food to the great service. Excellent.

Best beef I've had in my life. Nice atmosphere. Very helpful staff.

(Translated by Google) It's located between Senri Chuo and Momoyamadai. It's not too far to walk, but there is a parking lot, so I recommend going by car. The restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere with all seats in private rooms. There is also a beer server in the private room. It's irresistible for beer lovers... The extra thick tongue is very satisfying◎ With every bite, the flavor of the meat oozes out into your mouth, making you want to eat more rice. The splatter is quite fatty, but has a refined taste and feels luxurious. It was delicious when eaten with salt. The specialty sea urchin is a must-try dish if you don't dislike sea urchin. The collaboration of meat and sea urchin is the best◎ The price is a little high, but I was very satisfied from start to finish. The staff's service was also polite and comfortable. I recommend it for anniversaries, business entertainment, and occasional luxury with family and friends. I'd like to go again. Thank you for the meal. (Original) 千里中央と桃山台の間ぐらいにあります。 歩けない距離ではないですが、駐車場があるので車で行くことをオススメします。 店内は全席完全個室の落ち着いた雰囲気です。 個室にはビールサーバーもあります。 ビール好きにはたまらない、、 極厚タンは食べ応えあり◎ 噛むたびにお肉の旨みが口の中にジュワッと出てきてごはんがすすみます。 はねしたは脂は多めですが、上品な味わいで贅沢感があります。 お塩で食べると美味しかったです。 名物のうにくは、ウニが嫌いじゃなければ食べて欲しい一品です。 お肉✖️ウニのコラボレーション最高◎ お値段は少し高めですが、最初から最後まで満足度の高かったです。 店員さんの接客も丁寧で、心地よかったです。 記念日や接待、家族やお友達とのたまにの贅沢におすすめですわ、 また行きたいです。 ごちそうさまでした。

(Translated by Google) This is my second visit. Tajimaya's premium salted tongue is the most delicious I have ever tasted, and I believe it to be the best in Japan. The umami flavor, created by the perfect thickness and softness and exquisite saltiness, is exceptional. I was also impressed by the polite and warm service from the staff. I will definitely visit again. (Original) 二度目の訪問です。 但馬屋様の上塩たんは、これまで味わった中で最も美味しく、日本一と感じております。 程よい厚みと柔らかさ、絶妙な塩加減が生み出す旨味は格別です。 スタッフの皆様の丁寧で温かな接客にも感銘を受けました。 また必ず訪れたいと思います。

(Translated by Google) The quality of the meat is so good, I've been back here many times. I usually order pretty much the same thing, but it's always delicious. The prices aren't cheap, so if you're looking for a cheap but delicious yakiniku restaurant, this one might not be for you. No matter which Tajimaya branch I go to, the meat is consistently delicious, so I love it so much that when this one is fully booked, like on weekends, I'll go to a different Tajimaya branch. The service is often polite, and they'll even offer to change the grill without me having to ask (depending on the day), which is really helpful. The only thing that bothers me is that the restroom is small and dark, and the sink is difficult to wash your hands in, so I'd be happy if they could renovate and clean it up. (Original) お肉の質が良くとっても美味しいので何度もお伺いしてます。注文するメニューはいつもほぼ同じで決まってますが、毎回美味しいです。 お値段は安くはないので安くて美味しい焼肉屋さんに行きたい方はここは向いてなさそうです。 どこの店舗の但馬屋さんに行っても安定して美味しいお肉が出てくるので、週末などここが予約でいっぱいの時は違う店舗の但馬屋さんに行くくらい好きです。 接客も丁寧なことが多く(日による)網の交換も言わなくても申し出てくださることもあり、助かります。 トイレだけ狭くて暗いのと手洗い場が手を洗いにくい仕様なのが気になるので改装して綺麗にしてもらえたら嬉しいです。

(Translated by Google) I went there for lunch. It's a high-class restaurant with a great atmosphere. They have a great value lunch set, and you can enjoy high-quality meat at a reasonable price. It's a private room, so I was able to dine at my own pace without worrying about others. I was impressed that a staff member came to me the moment I pressed the call button. (Original) ランチで利用しました。 高級感があり、とても雰囲気の良いお店です。 お昼はお得なセットがあり、上質なお肉をリーズナブルにいただけます。 個室なので周りを気にせずゆっくり食事ができて良かったです。 呼び出しボタンを押した瞬間にスタッフの方が来られるのに感動しました。

Bottarga soba noodle is so delicious! It goes well with Sake

Good soba but too expensive

(Translated by Google) Soba restaurant Kida, located near Momoyamadai Station, is known for its carefully selected 100% buckwheat soba noodles and seasonal tempura. The contrast between the flavorful broth and the fragrant soba noodles is exquisite. There are private rooms and spacious table seats, and the restaurant is non-smoking, so you can enjoy a relaxing meal. You'll have to write your name down before you can enter, so it's best to arrive early and write it down. (Original) 桃山台駅近くの蕎麦屋木田は、こだわりの十割そばと旬の天ぷらが評判。だしがきいたつゆと香り高いそばのコントラストが絶妙。小上がり個室や広いテーブル席があり、禁煙で落ち着いた食事が楽しめる。名前を書いて待つので、早めに行って書いて置いたほうがいいです。

(Translated by Google) I visited on October 9th. It was around 2pm so I was able to go in without having to wait in line. I ordered the "Tenseiro Nimai-Ju." This was also delicious soba with a smooth texture. The soba broth was also well-balanced and delicious. With the 2-layer order, the soba noodles are served twice in a strainer, but I would have liked the amount of wasabi to match the amount of the two layers. I realized this too late, but next time I'd like to try the "Whale Harihari Seiro Soba." (Original) 10月9日来訪。2時頃だったので並ばずに店内へ。 「天せいろ2枚重ね」を注文。こちらも喉越しの良い蕎麦で、美味しい蕎麦でした。蕎麦つゆもバランスの取れた美味しい"つゆ"です。 2枚重ねは蕎麦がざるで2回出てくるのですが、出来れば"わさび"を2枚重ねの量に合わせて欲しかったですね。 気づいたのが遅かったのですが、次回は「鯨のはりはりせいろ蕎麦」をいただきたいですね。

(Translated by Google) I arrived at around 12:10 on a Saturday. There is a parking lot to the right of the restaurant, and while I was parking my car, two groups of people lined up ahead of me. I finally entered the restaurant at 12:21. Unfortunately, the coarsely ground soba I was looking for was out of stock, so I ordered grated daikon radish soba. What was brought to me was grated daikon radish soba with seaweed, green onions, and bonito flakes on top of the soba. I couldn't tell from the menu that it was grated daikon radish soba, so I would have liked it if they had confirmed in advance if possible. If it doesn't say bukkake, I would have imagined it being served separately. I personally prefer grated daikon radish soba with a stronger soba aroma and flavor when served with soup, but it was still delicious. Thank you for the meal. I have been exporting Hokkaido buckwheat flour for over 10 years, and I have been eating a lot of soba even before I became involved. My personal preference is 100% country soba made with whole-grain soba and a strong soba flavor. Buckwheat is rich in rutin, vitamin B group, and minerals, and is also rich in protein. Only restaurants that I like and would like to recommend to friends will be posted on Instagram with a rating of 4 or higher. IG:taiwan_natural_you (Original) 土曜日の12時10分頃に到着しました。お店の右手に駐車場があり、車を停めている間に2組ほど先に並ばれてしまいました。12時21分にようやく入店です。 お目当ての粗挽きせいろは残念ながら品切れだったので、おろしそばを注文。運ばれてきたのは、海苔とネギ、カツオ節が蕎麦の上にのったぶっかけスタイルのおろしそばでした。メニューからはぶっかけだとは分からなかったので、できれば事前に確認してもらえると嬉しいなと思います。ぶっかけと書かれていない場合は、どうしても別盛りを想像してしまうので。 ツユをかけていただくぶっかけおろしそば、個人的にはもう少し蕎麦の香りや風味が強い方が好みですが、それでも美味しくいただきました。ごちそうさまでした。 私は北海道産の蕎麦粉を輸出して10年以上で 携わる以前から蕎麦をたくさん食べ歩いていました。 個人的な好みは蕎麦の風味がある 挽きぐるみの十割の田舎蕎麦が好きです。 蕎麦はルチンをはじめとしてビタミンB群やミネラルが豊富に含んでいる食材でタンパク質も豊富に含んでいます。 お気に入りで友人にも紹介したいお店のみ⭐️4越え インスタグラムには⭐️4、5だけアップします。 IG:taiwan_natural_you

(Translated by Google) First visit on 7/26/R7 It was hot, so I decided to explore a nearby store. I arrived 30 minutes before opening, but I was the seventh in line. I wrote my name down and waited. There was a parking lot across the street from the store, and everyone seemed to park there and wait in their cars. Inside the store, there were six tables that seat four, two tables that seat two, and one table that seat one. It seemed like many people came alone. This time, I went with my partner on a tandem bike. We each had coarsely ground buckwheat. It was like 28% buckwheat flour soba, but it was moist and chewy, and had a good aroma. The broth was a spicy soy sauce flavor with dried bonito flakes. The condiments were spring onions and fresh wasabi. The portions were large and the prices were low, so I thought it was reasonable. I'll definitely be back. (Original) R7.7.26初回訪問 暑かったので、近場の店舗開拓に。 開店30分前に着きましたが、7番目でした。名前を書いて待ちました。 店の道路をはさんだ反対側に、駐車場が、あり、皆さんそこに車を止めて車内で待たれているようでした。 店内は、4人掛けテーブルが6脚、2人掛けテーブルが2脚、1人掛けテーブルが1脚ありました。一人で来店される方も多いようでした。 今回も連れ合いとバイクのタンデムで行きました。 それぞれ、粗びきセイロをいただきました。 二八蕎麦のようでしたが、しっとりと腰もあり、香りも良かったです。お出汁は、鰹節の効いた辛めの醤油味でした。 薬味は、ネギと生わさびでした。 量も多く価格も安いのでリーズナブルだと思いました。 再訪決定です。

(Translated by Google) A local friend recommended this restaurant to me, and I've been interested in it ever since. I visited a little after noon on a weekday, and there was a line of 5-6 groups (you have to write your name down before you can wait). The tempura and soba were delicious, and I even had some soba soup, which was delicious. Next time, I'd like to go for drinks at night. 🍶 (Original) 地元友人からオススメされ、ずっと気になっていたお店。 平日12時過ぎに訪れましたが、5〜6組待ち(名前を書き待つスタイル) 天ぷらもそばも美味しく、そば湯までいただき美味しかったです。 次は、夜に行き呑みたいです🍶

Quiet, intimate, and truly special. There are clear guidelines (no talking, no phones) which help create a calm atmosphere. The full dining experience took 2.5 hours (with a waiting list), which I didn’t expect, but it was completely worth it. The owners were lovely and welcoming, and the food was simply outstanding. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for something unique.

Simply one of the best ramen I've ever had. The simple, but clever, ticketing system indicated when we could come and eat. There was already a small queue outside at 10:15, half an hour before official opening. We got a ticket stating the time 11:07 when we could return. The place itself is very atmospheric, and the foot is excellent. It was great to have a quick chat with them to give thanks for the food. I really hope I'll be fortunate enough to visit Osaka again and enjoy another bowl.

The wait outside was not bad. They give you a ticket with a number and an estimated time so you can walk around and come back if you wish. The cook spoke enough English to explain the ordering machine. I got the top option with soy sauce and my wife got the one under it with salt. We both agreed the top one is definitely better. Would like to try the spicy dipping sauce one some time. It only seats about ten so when you come in and order from the machine you still will stand inside watching people eat. It’s not as awkward as you think as most people are looking at phones while waiting or eating. Fantastic noodles if I didn’t say that already. I like the style of noodles here, almost pasta like in texture. Just be sure the hurry and eat and not sit around talking so others can eat! I would add that for Being such a small place it had a lot of customers who were English speaking, My wife and I were not the only ones. As my wife said “I guess that’s what happens with good internet reviews!”

We discovered Ramen Yashichi in Dec 2013, quite by accident. We stayed at a hotel nearby, and saw a very long queue outside the restaurant, so like good Singaporeans, we decided to join the queue. We have been back every time we visit Osaka. So why do I find it great? Firstly, the noodle is made in-house by the chef, great texture. The broth is at the right temperature, so it doesn’t continue to cook the noodles after it has been served; this is important as the ramen can get overcooked like good spagetti and meepok. The broth is rich but not too salty like many other ramen shops. He heats each serving of the broth separately with each order. The char siew has the right mix of lean and fat meat, tender. He also pan fries a separate serving of pork bits (see top left of the bowl) so that there’s a good amount of wok hey aroma in them. The topping is generous with different types of greens (sorry if you’re a vegetable hater!) and a dash of sesame. I only wish the onsen egg was a bit more runny. The restaurant only sits 10. Here you order from the ticket machine, sit and watch your order being cooked, slurp it all up and leave. No chit chatting as there’s usually a long queue of people waiting in the cold outside for their turn! The friendly service is provided by a lady (assume she’s the chef’s wife). They even provide umbrellas outside if it rains and you have to queue to get in. The price has gone up to 1200 yen since we started coming here but it is still great quality food at this price, especially when compared to Singapore’s ramen which cost between $15 and $20 these days. As many of you realise, I don’t post pictures of my food. This is an exception. 👍 PS the queue for the queue numbers start at 10.15am Mon-Fri. The restaurant opens at 10.45am. Queue starts forming at 9.50am.

Amazing ramen! He is specialised in chicken paitan soup blended with soy sauce. I loved the smoked flavour in the broth. The noodles also had a rich taste. I think he made them by himself. I reccomend the extra BBQ chicken meat! It’s amazing! The shop is not big: 3 chairs at the counter and two tables so, even in a week day, there is usually 1h wait. They have a good system of ticket, so you don’t have to wait in line. The shop is not far from Umeda, so you can go for a walk.

The best noodle shop in Osaka. The soup is so deep & rich taste that it can make my stomach full almost the rest of the day. The're pretty organized with giving you a waiting number ticket which tells you the time to come back.:))

Very nice lady, amazing salt ramen and tsukemen. Broth was extremely flavorful for both dishes, 10/10 favourite ramen in japan so far
