I visited "Akiyoshi Shinsaibashi Store" in Shinsaibashi after a long time. The yakitori at Akiyoshi is always delicious and this day was no exception. The restaurant was lively and almost full. I enjoyed the tomato, chicken liver, gizzard, chicken thigh, tongue, chicken skin, fried lotus root, yakitori rice bowl, red miso soup, draft beer, and highball. The yakitori had a nice chewy texture and the flavors were rich and juicy when you bite into them. The chicken liver, chicken skin with just the right amount of meat, and the yakitori rice bowl at the end were particularly delicious. Akiyoshi's yakitori is something you crave when you haven't had it in a while!

After watching a movie at the cinema in Shinsaibashi Parco, I was thinking about where to have dinner before heading home. Ah, I know just the place - Akikichi! As a fan of Akikichi, I have to visit it regularly! So, I headed to the usual Akikichi location. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with the usual "Welcome, Miss!" I ordered a draft beer for 572 yen and two cucumber skewers for 72 yen each without even looking at the menu. Normally, I'm a quiet and reserved person, but at Akikichi, I like to act cool and order without looking at the menu (laughs). No matter how many times I eat it, the cucumber skewers are so delicious! Just simple skewered cucumbers, but so tasty!! Let's order some other dishes too. Mino (506 yen), Shiro (457 yen), Wakadori Fry (363 yen), Junkei (468 yen), and Grilled Onigiri (385 yen). I tried Wakadori Fry for the first time! It was good, but I think I prefer the skewers at Akikichi. The skewers at Akikichi are surprisingly delicious. But I thought it was nice to try a new menu, since I tend to always order the same things. I'll try something new next time too. I had a cold sake for 715 yen and left in a good mood. Thank you, Akikichi, for always being a place of comfort. Itadakimasu!

I love Akikichi ♡ I wanted to go to Akikichi in Otsu for dinner a while ago, but I had to give up because of the long line. I was really looking forward to eating there, so frustrating! The only way to make up for this regret is definitely to visit Akikichi! The other day, after going to the beauty salon, I had dinner at Akikichi Shinsaibashi store. It might have been just good timing, but that day most of the customers were foreigners, which was surprising. Thank you everyone for coming to Osaka. Please spend lots of money and come back (^^) ↓What I ordered↓ Cucumbers x2 72 yen each, total 144 yen Minomushi (beef intestines) 506 yen White liver 457 yen Jyunkai (beef tenderloin) 468 yen Kushi katsu (skewered pork cutlets) 451 yen Grilled rice ball 385 yen Draft beer 572 yen Cold sake 715 yen Yes! Victory! No need to say anything else! First up in the starting lineup with a no-look order, cucumbers x2 and draft beer ♡ Next up are the trio of Minomushi, White liver, and Jyunkai, the best friends at Akikichi. They're like Perfume at Akikichi!! I really love the taste of the sauce on the blue dishes, sweet and salty, it goes really well with the grilled chicken. The kushi katsu is also delicious, and even though I didn't have it this time, the potato fries are also tasty. The staff at Akikichi Shinsaibashi store are always so friendly and efficient, it's a pleasure to watch them work. That's why I always feel like going back. Thank you for always providing a soothing time, Akikichi. Itadakimasu.

I always end up going to this place near the hotel. I have been going to various shops for almost 50 years. My favorite is the pure white kushikatsu! With this, the alcohol keeps flowing. Fast, delicious, cheap, the reliable Akiyoshi. Thank you for the meal.

I went there for the first time. My junior colleague suggested going to Akiyoshi, so I decided to give it a try. When we arrived at the restaurant around 7 pm on Friday, the first thing we were asked was, "Do you have a reservation?" I was surprised to see how popular the place was. However, the lady who greeted us with a warm smile was very friendly and provided excellent customer service, scoring a perfect 100 in my book. We only interacted with her briefly, but she seemed really nice based on her interactions with other customers as well. After a short wait, we were seated, and we left the ordering to my junior colleague's recommendations. The speed at which dishes like cucumber, kushikatsu, and yakitori were served was incredible. They must have started preparing them even before we placed our order. The restaurant was packed, which was surprising. When we went to pay at the register before leaving, there were about two groups waiting, but it made sense given how efficient the service was. We had a couple of beers, two highballs, and ate to our heart's content, all for just a little over 5,000 yen. I will definitely come back!

It's really delicious. The quality is the same no matter where you eat. This is my first time at Akiyoshi since coming to Kansai. Surprisingly, the ratings on Tabelog are not high. Maybe because they also have branches in Tokyo? Regardless, this is my favorite yakitori restaurant. The specialty dish, Jyunkei, is amazing. I can easily eat 10 skewers. I don't order negima because I always go for the yakitori don set as my finishing dish! Dip it in garlic chili sauce, pour the leftover sauce on rice, and devour it all at once. ...Heavenly. Thank you for the meal. Actually, this restaurant originated in Fukui Prefecture. Did you know that? Glasses frames, dinosaurs, Jyunkei. Fukui is quite unique, isn't it? Try adding "aka" (red chili paste) on top of the yakitori don set, it's delicious! Give it a try!

Tonight, I had dinner here. It is located in the basement of a nearby building, down from the Shinsaibashi-suji shopping street to the underground shopping area of Crysta Nagahori. I often pass by this area, but I was hesitant to try it out until now. I ordered crispy chicken skin (salt), dry chicken tenderloin (salt), and green onion skewers (salt) along with a refreshing highball made with Nikka whiskey. The chicken skin and tenderloin came in sets of 5, while the green onion skewers could be ordered in sets of 3. The prices were affordable, but I recommend ordering in pairs for a better dining experience. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I visited Akiyoshi-san in the basement of Shinsaibashi Tower Building B1F with the thought of having a light yakitori and a drink. I have also visited Akiyoshi-san in Umeda and other places, but this shop gave me a closed and cramped impression. The location is good, so it might be a nice place for a quick drink before moving on to the next shop. Thank you for the meal.

It's been a while since I visited Akikichi-san by myself ♡ It's my favorite time of the day♪ I ordered two draft beers for 545 yen each and two cut cucumbers for 72 yen each without even looking at the menu. They taste surprisingly delicious even though they are just cut cucumbers♡ I regret not having eaten here for a long time even though I am a fan of Akikichi-san (^_^;) I then ordered as much as I wanted of my favorite items: cold sake for 693 yen, a small hot sake for 341 yen, chicken skewers for 435 yen, special chicken skewers for 462 yen, pork ribs for 484 yen, grilled rice balls for 374 yen, and spicy kimchi for 330 yen. The grilled rice balls by Akikichi-san are always delicious! Eating them with the sauce on the blue plate always brings a smile to my face♡♡ I usually order either potato fries or grilled rice balls each time, but honestly, I want to eat both! However, eating all of this alone is my limit (^_^;) I hope to continue visiting Akikichi-san for their delicious grilled chicken in 2022♡ Thank you for the meal.

After work, I went to Akiyoshi-san's (*⁰▿⁰*) The place was packed even though it was late because it was the day before a holiday. Cheers with a lemon shochu highball♪ I always order: - Junkei (fried chicken) - Quail - Fried potatoes It's always delicious, cheap, and the service is quick and pleasant, so I end up coming here often♪ Thank you for the meal!!

I visited "Akiyoshi Shinsaibashi Store" in Shinsaibashi after a long time. Akiyoshi is always bustling with customers as a casual stop-by shop. The items I tried were: - Cold tofu - Wakahada (young chicken skin) - Tongue - Red miso soup - Tsukune (chicken meatballs) - Pito (pork) - Junkei (pork cheek) - Sunagimo (gizzard) - Highball. The Junkei and Wakahada were really delicious as always.

Autumn Yoshiki is someone I crave to eat at regularly. I love the sweet sauce on Yoshiki's blue plate♡ Good with skewers, good with grilled rice balls, good even just licking it lol This time, I ordered without looking♡ Cucumber, liver, grilled rice ball, draft beer, cold sake. I was surprised at how delicious the cucumber was when I first tried it, so I ordered it again this time. Just cutting the cucumber, but why is it so easy to eat and delicious! I used to think, "Just cutting cucumber, I don't need that," but I want to scold my past self! Try it once!! That makes me more curious about cabbage now (≧∀≦) Just cutting cabbage, I used to think, "I don't need that," and I haven't tried cabbage yet... but the day I eat it is coming soon lol There seems to be fewer foreign customers, but it's still lively and delicious as always. Thank you for the meal♡

On this day, I was on a business trip to Osaka. Despite my colleagues recommending various restaurants, I was determined to go to Akiyoshi and dragged everyone along. I wanted to understand Akiyoshi better, so I gained the ability to predict the busy and less crowded times. So, the best time to visit was after 8:30 PM. I visited at that time and was able to enter the restaurant right as it was getting less crowded. I made my usual blind order - Junkei, Shiro, Mino, Pitoro, and kushikatsu, along with some cabbage. We toasted, chatted over cabbage and highballs, and then the awaited dishes arrived - Junkei, Shiro, and more. Of course, we ate them with just the sauce, adding shichimi to it. The texture of Junkei was amazing, and Shiro was delicious too. The miso-dressed Pitoro and Mino were also great with the sauce. Akiyoshi is just so delicious. The kushikatsu is cheap and has a nostalgic feel like snacks. Once again, I was very satisfied with Akiyoshi. It seems that Osaka's atmosphere makes the food taste even better than in Tokyo. Thank you for the meal!

The people at my workplace love the "Junkai" and "Shiro" from Akiyoshi so much that I thought, "How delicious must they be!" When I tried them, the "Junkai" was made with chicken, tender and juicy with a nice bounce. They use only female chickens for this dish. The "Shiro" was made with pork, grilled intestines that were soft and juicy, with a crispy outer layer. Personally, I also enjoyed the tsukune, chicken liver, and tulip dishes! The fried food had a crispy coating. I also ordered some cabbage (salt) for vegetables, which was refreshing and delicious. The restaurant has a lively atmosphere and is perfect for gatherings. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I love Akiyoshi so much and I want to go there regularly, but I rarely have the chance to. I've caught the "I want to taste Akiyoshi's sauce" bug (laughs). I had a little time, so I went alone to the Shinsaibashi store where I often go shopping. I challenged myself to Akiyoshi Master's MyRebi-san's ordering method, the no-look order! As soon as I sat down, without looking at the menu, I ordered a draft beer, junkei, mino, and shiro. Did I get a little closer to Akiyoshi Master by doing this? (laughs) However, a fatal mistake was revealed here. I got too excited about the no-look order and ordered too much at once! Akiyoshi serves in units of 5, so if I don't eat quickly, my table will be filled with skewers (>_<) I should have ordered with a little more composure. I'll be more careful next time. I hurried to eat, but Akiyoshi is delicious, indeed ♡♡ I love the sauce ♡ Sweet, salty, the unique sauce is amazing ♡ Akiyoshi is known for its junkei, but I love mino and shiro the most ♡ I also enjoyed cold sake and felt happy ♡ I finished with grilled rice balls and my stomach was full ♡ The atmosphere inside the restaurant is always lively, and the staff are efficient, creating a great vibe ♡ Thank you for the feast.

I had been avoiding this chain restaurant, but this time I visited with three people. We ordered items like pork neck, chicken, and chicken breast skewers, and they were all cheap and delicious! My impression has changed. I am likely to visit again in the future. Thank you for the meal.

I always feel like eating at Akiyoshi-san's place regularly ♡ This time, I came alone. There are so many foreigners here, it really feels like being in a foreign country. This time, I ordered shiro (intestines), mino (heart), and sasami (chicken tenderloin). The shiro came with a sauce on a blue plate. I love this sauce, it's sweet and delicious. The mino came with a sauce on a green plate. The miso-flavored mino goes perfectly with the tangy sauce! The green onions are also delicious. The sasami came with mustard on a yellow plate. The perfectly cooked sasami is moist and light, and the spicy mustard goes well with it. Even though it's a portion for one person with 5 pieces, they are small so you can eat them quickly. Ahh, it's so delicious. The lively and noisy atmosphere in the restaurant strangely makes me feel calm. Thank you for the meal.

Akiyoshi is a place where you can easily go when you feel like it, but I couldn't go there because the timing didn't match, but I finally made it. First, I had the pure kei white cucumber, starting with two cucumbers. They brought beer and cucumbers with sauce first. Then, it's a pure kei yakitori place, so you have to start with chicken. The chicken had a good texture and just the right amount of salt. Towards the end, they brought out the white pork hormones. They said to dip it in sauce or mustard, but it was delicious even without it. The mustard had a nice kick to it. I could eat as many cucumbers as I wanted, it was a nice palate cleanser. Next was the chu-hai yuzu pietro. I added two more cucumbers and the pietro. Pietro is so delicious, you can dip it in the special sauce, but it's amazing on its own. It's so good, I want to eat as many as I can! But the calories must be high. If I had more room, I would have wanted to add the mino and the kushikatsu. Next time, pietro is a must. The pure kei peppers were also good. I immediately wanted to go back. It was comfortable even by myself. It's been a while since I went, but Akiyoshi is still delicious. I wasn't wrong about liking it back in the day. Thank you for the meal. It came out to 2,889 yen, so it was within 3,000 yen.

Junkei. The fatty meat and texture are irresistibly delicious. Eating tomatoes makes me feel healthy. Eating vegetables as an excuse for tomorrow, but drinking beer like crazy makes it all good. I used to like Shiromoa, but lately it's all about Junkei. Thank you for the meal.

Small but delicious, covered in a crispy skin underneath.
