Gyoza Tateyama

  • 1-4-19 Oyodominami, Kita-ku, Osaka, 531-0075, Japan
  • 1,000 – 2,000 JPY • Dumplings
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The most popular item here is ‘Tateyama Gyoza’, which is the only one grilled with garlic. Different ingredients offer different flavours, such as the shrimp-filled gyoza dumplings garnished with lemon and salt and the vegetable-filled gyoza dumplings garnished with miso sauce. We also recommend the set menu that offers boiled as well as grilled gyoza dumplings. Making a pizza base of gyoza skins, topped with vegetables, cheese and more, is a unique idea.

  • 5,000 – 6,500 JPY • Kushiage
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Here you can savour kushiage cuisine that’s creative and different. For example, soup of turnip surinagashi includes flounder kushiage as one of the ingredients; cod is eaten with a sauce of shungiku mixed with shirako; and pieces of buri are served with grated karasumi. The standard dish to end is the ‘Kakiage Chazuke’, which is mixed vegetable and seafood tempura with a dashi made with shavings of different dried fish, and with roasted green tea poured over.

  • 3-4-12 Toyosaki, Kita-ku, Osaka, 531-0072, Japan
  • 1,000 – 2,000 JPY • Ramen
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The signature dish is traditional Chinese noodles. Made mostly with chicken from Kyoto but also with chicken from other places, the soup has a rich taste, while the homemade noodles have body and go down smoothly. Also outstanding are the seared thigh meat, and the slow-cooked roasted shoulder fillet; then there’s the ‘Iriko Soba’ with dried sardines and kombu dashi – making for some very difficult choices.

  • 2-8-14 Toyosaki, Kita-ku, Osaka, 531-0072, Japan
  • 1,000 – 5,000 JPY • Oden
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Oden ingredients are arranged neatly in a large pot. The owner-chef says, “Everything is recommended”, and each item is carefully prepared. They include ‘Goboten’, which is a combination of minced hamo and burdock root; ‘Fukuro’ featuring deep-fried tofu, carrot and shiitake; and steamed meat dumplings made with ginger. The flavours of these items add more depth to the dashi, which is made with Rausu kombu, tai and white miso.

Watanabe Curry Honten

  • 2-2-5 Sonezakishinchi, Kita-ku, Osaka, 530-0002, Japan
  • 1,000 – 2,000 JPY • Curry
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The theme here is ‘Curry you could eat every single day’. Dashi made from tai and chicken has an umami that blends with the flavoursome spices, creating an original curry using no wheat flour. The ‘Spice and Tonkatsu Curry’ topped with a thick pork loin cutlet is popular. There are also three dry curries, ‘Mutton Keema’, ‘Popeye Keema’ and ‘Black Curry’, made without any water.

  • 4-1 Tsurunocho, Kita-ku, Osaka, 530-0014, Japan
  • 1,000 – 1,500 JPY • Udon
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Made from domestic wheat, the matured noodles have body and a supple elasticity. The dashi is made from several dried ingredients, including kombu and small sardines. If you prefer a simple dish, we recommend the ‘Kijoyu’. On the other hand, if you want to enjoy how it goes with the dashi, try the ‘Kitsune’ with a large piece of deep-fried tofu on top. We also recommend the ‘Bukkake’, which comes with tube-shaped tai paste cake and onsen tamago.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Enjoy Basque and regional cuisine from all over Spain at this Spanish-style restaurant-cum-café/bar. As well as the familiar pinchos, tortillas, etc., the blackboard menu has a variety of small-plate dishes of the day. Popular items are the dry-cured ham , sliced only once an order is placed, and the asado of aigamo bred in Katsuragi, Nara prefecture, sautéed on a hot plate. To finish, we recommend the arroz meloso: a rice and seafood dish.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Enjoy teppanyaki and wine in a modern space. The menu includes everything from okonomiyaki and stir-fried noodles to creative dishes. The tonpeiyaki – cabbage and pork wrapped in an omelette – is garnished with sage here, inspired by the Italian dish saltimbocca. The homemade satsuma age has personality. Butter and soy sauce are added to the corn satsuma age, and kagenzu to the female snow crab satsuma age. There’s also an appealing selection of Italian wine.

  • 1,000 – 2,500 JPY • Udon
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

This restaurant buzzes till way after dark and is great to visit after drinking in the Kitashinchi district. The menu is full of items like kitsune (udon with deep-fried tofu), tempura udon, tsukimi (udon with a raw egg) etc., but most popular is the very first dish on it: tempura curry. It is two big shrimps on top of chewy handmade noodles, with a sauce of curry and dashi. It goes well with beef, deep-fried tofu slices and crunchy green spring onions.

  • 1-3-14 Dojima, Kita-ku, Osaka, 530-0003, Japan
  • 3,000 – 4,000 JPY • Chinese
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Its reputation for authentic Chinese cuisine at reasonable prices means this restaurant is packed nightly. Most of the menu will be familiar to Japanese diners, such as shrimp with chili sauce, and twice-cooked pork. As well as the Sichuan mapo tofu and the sweet-and-sour pork with black vinegar, the ‘Zendo-Style Black Chahan’ is particularly popular. It is at its busiest early on, so reservations for later in the evening are easier to make.

Synergy

  • 1-5-35 Dojima, Kita-ku, Osaka, 530-0003, Japan
  • 1,000 – 1,500 JPY • Curry
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The spices the owner-chef tasted in Turkey and Nepal while working for a travel agency greatly appealed to him. Focusing on things conducive to health, he also learned kanpo and yakuzen. The chicken curry, seasoned with cardamom, epitomises the food here and has been on the menu since it opened. There’s real synergy between the spices and the characteristics of the other ingredients in the curry made with goosefish liver and tuna shirako.

  • 5,000 – 8,000 JPY • Yakitori
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

If you come early, only a set menu that includes liver pâté and chicken soup is available. Firmly fleshy, Nara-raised roosters are used and various organs such as the thymus (‘otafuku’) and duodenum (‘bera’) are also offered. Ingenuity and extra touches abound, such as balsamic sauce for a sweet-and-sour flavour to the otherwise plain-tasting kidneys. After 8pm you can also order single items.

  • 1-1-3 Umeda, Kita-ku, Osaka, 530-0001, Japan
  • 1,000 – 1,500 JPY • Udon
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

An owner-chef from Takamatsu runs this Sanuki udon restaurant. Following how it’s done back home, he uses Kagawa flour and water for the dough. The dashi has dried flakes of various different kinds of fish and Hidaka kombu added to make it stand up to the flavour of the noodles. The seasonal limited dishes are also compelling, such as ‘Ushiwaka Udon’ with wagyu and Kagawa wakame, and the ‘An-mochi Zoni Udon’ of mochi with bean paste floating in white miso soup.

  • 1,500 – 4,000 JPY • Okonomiyaki
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Standard okonomiyaki like pork and squid is available, but we also recommend trying the original okonomiyaki. Many offerings are named after a celebrity, which means they were involved in its creation. The ‘Genki Modern Yaki’ and the ‘Deluxe Yaki’ are filling and made with lots of ingredients. Another recommendation is the ‘Tokusei Yakisoba’, whose spicy kimchi goes well with the texture of the beef tendon.

  • 1,500 – 8,000 JPY • Italian
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The speciality here is chargrilled dishes. For the wagyu, lean parts like the thigh and shoulder are offered. If you prefer seafood, we recommend the thick larger-sized anago or oysters with lardo. Pasta is served after the main dish. There is a wide variety, from simple pasta with tomato sauce to creative pasta featuring ragù and cheese fondue sauce.

  • 4-5-8 Hiranomachi, Chuo-ku, Osaka, 541-0046, Japan
  • 1,000 – 5,000 JPY • Udon

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The owner-chef served apprenticeships in a number of soba restaurants. Charmed by the fragrance of the flour that he milled himself, he resolved to try his hand at udon. He is particularly proud of his ‘Arabiki (Coarse Ground) Udon’. If you want a simple taste, we recommend the ‘Zaru Udon’. The ‘Aburigamo no Tsukejiru Udon’ of flame-grilled duck with dipping sauce was inspired by soba. You can try a wide array of snack dishes with some sake, and finish with udon.

Botani:Curry

  • 4-5-3 Kawaramachi, Chuo-ku, Osaka, 541-0048, Japan
  • 1,000 – 1,500 JPY • Curry
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The feature dish here is ‘Botani Curry’, reflecting the amount of ‘botanical’ (i.e., vegetable) content in the dish. Multiple spices are added to a broth made from chicken and flavourful vegetables, giving it more aroma than spiciness; the sweetness from onion and honey adds mellowness. There’s a good assortment of side dishes, mainly of beans and root vegetables, which add vivid colour – enjoy adding bits and pieces of them to tweak the flavour of the curry.

Yoshinosushi

  • 3-4-14 Awajimachi, Chuo-ku, Osaka, 541-0047, Japan
  • 3,000 – 5,000 JPY • Sushi
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

This is the birthplace of oshizushi, which caught on throughout Osaka. In the late Edo period, the first-generation owner-chef switched from running an inn to a sushi restaurant, and the third-generation owner-chef came up with the idea of sushi in a box. It’s called ‘8.5 cm kaiseki’ because the small box offers the five colours and five tastes of kaiseki in the form of grilled items, nimono and vinegared items.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

This popular restaurant is run by a husband and wife team. In addition to okonomiyaki and stir-fried noodles, the wide variety of teppanyaki is appealing. There are many creative skewered items, including ‘Kyo Nama-fu’, ‘Fresh Octopus with Shuto Sauce’ and ‘Umaki’. Start with the ‘Ebipan’, which is toast topped with minced shrimp, made without oil. We recommend the pork okonomiyaki which has a light texture and traps in the pork flavour.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The chef trained in northern Italy and each dish on the menu brings Japanese ingredients creatively together based on traditional Italian cuisine. Examples include the marinated mackerel and avocado terrine and the beef tongue and spinach with ragù sauce. Enjoy choosing, too, from a wide variety of meat dishes. The set menus are an option, but we also recommend ordering à la carte dishes and sharing the many different flavours.

  • 5,000 – 8,000 JPY • Izakaya
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Only Japanese sake is served out of a desire to have customers experience the many ways it can be matched with food. The preference in Kansai is for freshly filleted sashimi but here it is thoroughly matured. There are regional dishes from the owner-chef’s home prefecture of Kagawa and others that go beyond the confines of Japanese cuisine and showcase his experience in French cuisine, like ratatouille and liver pâté with grilled apples.

This kappo izakaya is supervised by the small Ichijunisai Ueno restaurant chain. Using the same ingredients as the restaurants, the owner-chef himself puts together the menu. There are various creative dishes, including roast beef served with oba or raw uni, and braised chicken. We also recommend the chargrilled seasonal vegetables and seafood. The speciality is tai chazuke, which features a fragrant and pleasant sesame and tai aftertaste.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Informal, enjoyable French cuisine is the concept here, and the food is served in such a way that those used to eating with chopsticks can readily do so. Classic culinary techniques form the basis, with the extra special element of Japanese ingredients. The menu features straightforward dishes that simply bring out the natural flavours of the ingredients. Game can be enjoyed in winter, such as deer and wild boar supplied by hunters in Wakayama.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Larger-sized anago from all over the country are used here. We recommend the anago set menu, which includes anago in every dish, with an appetiser, grilled anago and shabu-shabu at the end. The ‘Rokusai-mori’ includes lightly broiled sashimi, thin-sliced tsukuri and shredded tsukuri as well as seasonal seafood, and allows you to fully enjoy the anago. There is also seasonal shuko to go with sake. We recommend the hitsumabushi at lunchtime.

  • 1,000 – 1,500 JPY • Udon
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Enjoy a marriage of Sanuki udon and Osaka dashi. The owner-chef undertook repeated udon-making apprenticeships in Kagawa. The dough is rested for a day before being made into noodles, so is chewy in texture. If it’s your first time here, we recommend the Sanuki-style such as with pure soy sauce, or with raw egg. The kitsune udon (with deep-fried tofu), said to have begun in Osaka, and the meat udon, served in a limited quantity daily, are tweaked for local tastes.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The owner-chef heeded the call of cuisine while helping out at his elder brother’s ramen restaurant. Along with his brother and his friends he perfected the ‘Ohgonbai Ramen’, with a broth made from both freshwater clams and dashi, with the addition of soy sauce kaeshi. It has sweetness from scorched onions, and the bracing fragrance of yuzu, whetting the appetite. Since it’s located inside Kintetsu Namba Station, you can enter by purchasing a platform ticket that comes with a discount coupon.

  • 1-4-3 Sembachuo, Chuo-ku, Osaka, 541-0055, Japan
  • 1,000 – 1,500 JPY • Ramen
MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The owner-chef says that changing the thick sauce means changing the dashi. He uses different dashi for each flavour. For soy sauce ramen, he uses dashi made from chicken and potherbs; for salt ramen, he uses dashi made from dried sardines; and for limited winter miso ramen, he uses dashi made from chicken bones. The noodles are crimped with high water content and go well with the broth. The feature dish is soy sauce ramen; the mushroom paste gives it a unique flavour.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Priority is placed on the savouriness of the fat in the chicken and its freshness. The owner-chef doesn’t source his chicken from any one place, but purchases it part by part, judging it on its merits. He skewers large pieces and cooks them over bincho charcoal. He is particularly proud of the neck meat skewer, drawing out the flavour with some fine-tuned grilling. The meatloaf is delicious, combining the texture of skin and the flavour of onion.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The only dish offered here is chicken curry. The spices are ground only after an order is placed, then cooked in an earthenware pot together with the soup, making for a markedly rich fragrance. The rice is also spiced, creating a synergy of flavours. There’s creativity in how the taste varies as you eat different ingredients like tomatoes marinated in citrus, onsen tamago, yuzu, mizansho and other spices.

The stylish dining room has an urban feel and the tables and work stand were made to the chef’s orders. Using the cooking processes and recipes he learned in Italy while adding his own unique sensibilities, he has put together a menu that is refined in every way, including in the presentation of the food. There are a wide variety of dishes that include handmade pasta such as gnocchi and ravioli and meat dishes like wagyu tagliata and wintertime game.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Step inside this restaurant and you’ll find yourself in a retro Western-style atmosphere. We recommend the beef tongue stew and the beef stew. The demi-glace, made with plenty of tomatoes, is rich and deep yet not too much so. The ‘Hamburger Steak, Noro Style’ is a signature dish created by the founder featuring a doughnut-shaped hamburger patty with egg in the middle, grilled on a ceramic tile.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The dashi, made from kombu, katsuo and chicken bones, is rich with umami. Complementary combinations of ingredients such as clams and kuzukiri, hamo and onions, and anago and burdock root were inspired by how nimono soup is made. Whatever the task, it is clear the techniques were cultivated in Japanese cuisine. The key ingredients are bamboo shoots in spring, awabi in summer, wild mushrooms in autumn and buri in winter.

Preparations are kept to a minimum to emphasise the natural flavours of the ingredients. Seasonal nuta, chilled konjac, and cheese with miso dressing are popular items. There are some meat dishes like duck and beef, but the main focus is on fish and vegetables. The only drinks offered are Japanese sake and beer for toasts; the owner-chef’s wife is in charge of sake selection. The warm service of the husband and wife team is one of the draws here.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

The pork used here has a delicate sweetness to it, which the owner-chef accentuates by cooking the meat slowly in vegetable oil at a low temperature until pink in the middle. If you go for the ‘Special Loin’ and ask for thick slices, you can really enjoy it to the full. It goes well with salt and ordinary sauce, but we recommend the thick sauce made on the premises with a Japanese mustard base plus wasabi, yuzu pepper, and other ingredients.

MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View

Original touches are added to classic dishes incorporating seasonal ingredients. One example is the colourful and playful amuse-bouche served on a tiered stand. As the name of the restaurant, which means ‘duckling’ in French, suggests, duck and foie gras dishes are the signature menu items. Typical ones include roasted Challandais duck breast and steamed foie gras and black truffle sauce risotto.
