I revisited the bar in Osaka that I visited the most... I must have been there over 30 times, including drafts. They were so particular about fruits... Probably using fruits of higher quality than those used in top hotels, and only using them at their peak season... There were 8 different types of pears that appeared from September to December. I have not yet found a bar that is more particular about fruits than this one. I learned how to perfect a Caipirinha at this bar. In a way, this place broadened my perspective on the fun of cocktails. I stopped visiting due to a job transfer, so I visited to say goodbye before the transfer. I had planned to visit multiple bars that day, so I had the following two drinks: - Shine Muscat Caipirinha - Pomegranate Jack Rose Thank you for everything~

Tonight, after dinner, I visited "BAR YOSHIDA" on the second floor of a building facing Sonezaki Shinchi Hon-dori. When I opened the door, I was greeted by a quiet space with dim lighting and a cozy atmosphere with wood-based interior. For my first drink, I decided to go with the recommended choice... I asked the master for a cocktail that was a bit strong, and he recommended the Brandy-based "Sidecar". This cocktail is said to be a classic Brandy-based cocktail that was born in 1933 at the famous "Harry's New York Bar" near the Opera House in Paris. It is made by shaking Brandy with White Curacao and Lemon Juice, and the glass it was served in had a soft amber glow. When I took a sip, the rich aroma of Brandy tickled my nose, and the sweet and deep taste with a refreshing lemon acidity in the aftertaste was delightful. Although it is said to have over 25% alcohol content, it was easy to drink and delicious, making me want more. The master also mentioned that they have food that pairs well with cocktails, and when I looked up, I saw a food menu filled with various options. The pasta with oysters and rapeseed flowers, as well as the salt-grilled Shiitake mushrooms from Kamiyama, Tokushima, were simple yet delicious with their meaty and juicy flavors. Among them, the "Man's Potato Salad" was a cheerful potato salad with a generous amount of bacon and a hint of pepper, which paired perfectly with a highball. The master mentioned that this potato salad was the result of his continuous exploration to find the perfect dish to accompany drinks, and I loved the taste so much that I wanted to learn how to make it. They also offer courses featuring their proud dishes, so it might be fun to try pairing them with cocktails. Congratulations on your 14th anniversary. This is definitely a place I would love to visit again. Thank you for a wonderful time.

BAR YOSHIDA maintains an authentic bar style while offering original creative dishes full of local love, making it perfect for late-night dates. Whether you stop by alone, chat with close friends in a cozy atmosphere, or enjoy a sophisticated evening with a special someone, this recommended bar is a great choice for both women and those unfamiliar with bars. Located just a 3-minute walk from JR Tozai Line's Kitashinchi Station, the bar is on the 2nd floor of the Pierce 8 Building on Kitashinchi Hondori. Upon entering, you'll be welcomed by the dignified charm of a new Kitashinchi bar. "Welcome," greets the bartender and owner, Takashi Yoshida, along with a lovely female bartender. Master Yoshida has an impressive track record, including being ranked 3rd in the NBA National Skills Competition for two consecutive years and runner-up in the Asian Cocktail Championship. In addition to standard cocktails, you can enjoy original cocktails using sudachi from Yoshida's hometown of Tokushima and fresh fruits. What's even more surprising is the extensive menu that rivals or even surpasses a restaurant. There is no dedicated chef; instead, Yoshida has dedicated himself to perfecting the flavors. For example, the "Oyster and Nanohana Pasta" features plump oysters and the slight bitterness of nanohana, perfect for savoring the taste of spring. The "Men's Potato Salad" is a deliciously spicy potato salad with a perfect balance of flavors. The various dishes crafted by the female bartender and Yoshida himself are of top-notch restaurant quality. With high-quality service and a smoke-free environment, the overall satisfaction is exceptionally high. In an industry with high turnover, the 14 years of effort put into developing service and delicious late-night meals at BAR YOSHIDA guarantee a fun late-night date that will bring a smile to your girlfriend's face! Thank you for the delicious meal! ＼(^o^)／

An authentic bar with a cozy atmosphere located on the main street of Kita-Shinchi in Osaka. The master is a skilled bartender who has won competitions, offering a variety of cocktails. Along with delicious drinks, it is recommended to order some tasty dishes listed on the blackboard near the counter. The master hails from Tokushima Prefecture, so you can enjoy creative dishes using local ingredients from Tokushima. One dish that stood out was the Fish Cutlet Hot Sandwich. A must-try if you ever visit!

I wanted to drink a seasonal fruit cocktail ❤️ The atmosphere was just right for having a nice conversation. It was relaxing, and the alcohol went down smoothly. I've always liked frozen drinks because they're easy to drink. But when it was time to leave, my legs felt heavy... I wish there was a solution for that. It was a comfortable place to be. On my way home, I brought back some homemade curry. It was delicious! ( ¨̮ )︎︎ ===========

Third stop ♡ Persimmon and black tea smoothie ♡ It was delicious ♡ My sister also enjoyed the strawberry and apricot smoothie she had (●︎´▽︎`●︎) We were able to enjoy tasty drinks ☆*。Mr. Yoshida's service was excellent and the atmosphere was nice but not too formal, which was great ☆*。We had a fun time (๑>∀<๑)♥ There were plenty of menus using ingredients from Tokushima (* ॑꒳ ॑* )⋆* It's amazing how many wonderful bars there are ♡♡ Thank you for the meal Ψ( 'ч' ☆) ===========

I visited Bar Yoshida to celebrate their 11th anniversary. I enjoyed champagne and highball for the celebration. I had a great time chatting with the staff. The atmosphere was nice, the food was delicious, and it's a wonderful restaurant. The young bartenders are also working hard. Looking forward to visiting again in the future.

Seeking healing in the gentle and peaceful comfort of a new gathering place. The BAR "BAR Yoshida" is a place where everyone can come together and enjoy a variety of dishes while maintaining an authentic BAR style. Despite his impressive accolades such as winning the Japan Bartender Skills Competition and being the runner-up in the Asia Cocktail Championship, Mr. Yoshida uses abundant ingredients from his hometown of Shikoku, Tokushima, to create stylish fruit cocktails and original creative dishes filled with local pride. The "Whole Sudachi Gin Tonic" and "Green Lemon and Mint Southern Cocktail" using Shikoku ingredients are a must-try! The flavors are refreshing, fresh, and perfectly complement the alcohol! The "Awa-Odori Chicken and Mushroom in Tomato Sauce" dish, made with Tokushima ingredients, features Awa-Odori chicken, a high-quality breed developed through crossbreeding. The dish is juicy, flavorful, and has a satisfying texture. The pasta sauce is rich with the taste of chicken and Tokushima tomatoes, surpassing even Italian restaurants in deliciousness. The evening was filled with mushrooms, highlighted by dishes like the "Baked Foil-wrapped Trio of Mushrooms" and "Prosciutto and Figs." It's wonderful to dine at a BAR with delicious food! After quickly enjoying the meal, I headed to a live performance by my close friend, jazz singer Mayu, in Shinchi. Despite it being late September, the humid heat continues in Kansai. The refreshing cocktails with sudachi and green lemon were delightful. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I was taken to a restaurant by Tempura Gourmet. It was my first visit to this authentic bar located on the second floor of a building in Shinchi. I made a reservation over the phone, but the counter was already full, including reserved seats. Luckily, the master, Mr. Yoshida, who honed his skills at a prestigious bar and has won many awards in bartender competitions, was able to accommodate us. In addition to standard cocktails, you can enjoy original cocktails made with fresh fruits from Yoshida's hometown of Tokushima and fruits sourced from contracted farms. What I had (only me): Peach Champagne Cocktail and Sudachi Gin and Tonic. The peach was fresh and had just the right amount of sweetness, creating a refreshing taste. For my first visit, I chose the Sudachi Gin and Tonic as recommended by Yoshida. It had a different flavor compared to lemon, and I thought Sudachi was delicious, especially in this season. The food menu here is also quite extensive. I heard from my companion that the European-style curry with a generous amount of sherry wine is delicious, so I would like to try it next time.

The bar I wanted to visit was on the second floor of a building. There are many bars in Shinchi, but there are still many unexplored bars. I was taken by a regular customer and enjoyed bar time (*´艸｀). The interior of the bar has a relaxed L-shaped counter with about eight seats, and table seating in the back. I started with a recommended fruit cocktail. ・Kinkan Cocktail The kinkan served is easy to eat, with plenty of kinkan juice, a refreshing lemon flavor, and tonic. A beautiful cocktail suitable for the first drink. My companion was served ・Sudachi Cocktail A refreshing sudachi citrus scent was wonderful, usually starting around May, but this time it was special! ・Kiwi Cocktail A cold kiwi cocktail poured into a short glass. The slight sweetness and large blueberries create a nice harmony in the mouth. ・Cherry Liqueur Cocktail The cherry served is soaked in French Griottines liqueur. It's amazing how much attention to detail they put into it! ・Martini A must-drink cocktail made by Yoshida, who has won awards at the Japan Bartenders Association competitions! And... a cocktail with plenty of Van Houten cocoa powder... ・Tiramisu Cocktail with Mascarpone Cheese A mint cocktail reminiscent of chocolate mint, an adult dessert cocktail. There are also various appetizer menus, so you can complete everything you need at this store! I might want this store in my neighborhood. Even if I had just dropped by, the master would surely make me a wonderful cocktail. If you have time to drink in Osaka, this is a must-visit place! Thank you for the treat (‾▽‾)

The theme of the restaurant is Manhattan. The coasters even have illustrations on them. I don't have the habit of eating "sweet things," or rather, I feel like I've been "cheated" when I fill my stomach with sweetness, perhaps due to the trauma of being raised in a generation where meat was considered a treat. On the other hand, alcohol is said to be a form of sugar, but perhaps because I'm numb to the alcohol that paralyzes brain cells, I consume it quite frequently and in good amounts every day. As for sweet alcohol, after enjoying a Western-style feast, I might finish with dessert wines like Beerenauslese or Passito, or end with a nightcap at a quiet bar, staring at an Old Fashioned or Jack Rose in front of me and sighing. The Manhattan cocktail is made with rye or similar bourbon, Canadian whiskey, sweet vermouth, chilled with ice, poured into a cocktail glass, garnished with a sugar-soaked maraschino cherry, giving it a somewhat manly yet feminine appearance. The taste is a balance of strong and sweet, with a kick from the whiskey being essential to its Manhattan character. Making a Manhattan cocktail is more challenging than making a dry martini, requiring a delicate balance, and the owner of a place that specializes in Manhattans must be quite an eccentric, serious, and dedicated person. On a Saturday in Kita-Shinchi, after indulging in a feast at a counter-style restaurant, I decide to stop by a place I had registered on the Tabelog app. Upon entering the restaurant, I sit on a solid chair at the low counter and order a Manhattan without hesitation. The owner skillfully prepares the cocktail, and as I take a sip, I can already imagine the expertise and precision in his craft. The cocktail is a traditional Manhattan, not overly chilled like the popular style in Tokyo, but made with plenty of whiskey and vermouth, a true classic taste. I can sense that the owner takes pride in making proper cocktails, and I enjoy the drink thoroughly. Feeling delighted, I intended to have one more drink as a nightcap, and I requested a GlenDronach 21-year-old Parliament whiskey. It has a light sherry aroma, a strong 48% alcohol content, and a fruity sweetness. It's delicious. I appreciate the straightforwardness of the drink and once again confirm that the owner is indeed a serious person.

The other day, I visited a new BAR in Shinchi and completely fell in love with its gentle and cozy atmosphere. "Bar Yoshida" has an authentic feel where you can also enjoy a meal in a welcoming environment. While I usually like the sharp and cool bars in Shinchi, Bar Yoshida offers a more homely and soothing experience. The bar is a place where you can relax and unwind in Shinchi. The owner, Mr. Yoshida, is a skilled bartender who has won awards at competitions and uses local ingredients from his hometown in Tokushima, Shikoku. You can enjoy a variety of fruit cocktails and creative dishes made with local ingredients. This time, I tried some of the dishes I was curious about: - Cream cheese tiramisu cocktail - Kochi yuzu gin and tonic - Awa beef thick tongue steak - Awa chicken peperoncino - Kochi buntan smoothie cocktail - Whole kinkan (kumquat) gin and tonic The atmosphere at Bar Yoshida is welcoming to customers of all ages and backgrounds. Whether you are a couple, a solo diner, or a group of friends, you can enjoy a good time at this bar. Even if you are hesitant about visiting a bar in Shinchi, Bar Yoshida is a place where you can feel comfortable and have a great time. Thank you for the wonderful evening.

A comforting drink.

Rating: 3.45 out of 5, based on 7 reviews. This place feels like a nostalgic coffee shop from the Showa era, with many regular customers gathered around the counter. The tables may feel a bit isolated, but on the other hand, you can enjoy your drink without being disturbed. I met up with my friend and two other ladies here. One of them is a regular customer. I heard the curry here is delicious, so I decided to try it. The curry is made without water, using only red wine and vegetables, giving it a European twist. It has a sweet taste at first, followed by a rich flavor of curry spices in a demi-glace sauce. The aroma of red wine adds to the deliciousness of the curry. The layout of the counter makes it feel more like a coffee shop than a bar. The location is convenient and easy to use. I will definitely come back again. Thank you for the meal!

Hello! I found myself wandering into the tempting streets of Kita-Shinchi. Although I am not confident that I can find my way back to the restaurant if asked to return, I must say that the establishment I stumbled upon was truly special. They serve dishes made with ingredients from Tokushima, such as sudachi and shiitake mushrooms. I was particularly impressed by the deliciousness of the shiitake mushrooms. This authentic bar offers a variety of dishes, including Tokushima's B-grade gourmet fish cutlet sandwich, making it a great place to enjoy drinks. I would love to visit again, but it all depends on whether I can find my way there. Cheers!

Category: Favorite Izakayas (Tokyo) The second bar in Osaka is "Bar Yoshida". A bar in Kita-Shinchi that you probably wouldn't find unless you're alone. The owner's student is very kind (no comment on the owner). I ordered an Adonis at the counter. Mr. Yoshida is passing the baton to Mr. Kyonakata for a tournament tomorrow. I am having the tournament challenge cocktail. It's delicious, even though the base alcohol is different... Until recently, he was a junior. I remembered taking a photo with Mr. Naganuma as the East-West champion. A great growth speed. I had a Gimlet at Yoshida's. This is the taste of a professional. I want to visit more bars in Osaka, so that's all for today. I would like to come back again. Thank you for the meal!

At the regular meeting, to Mr. BARYOSHIDA. This may have been my first visit since the beginning of this year! Oh, time flies by so fast. (sweat) The owner here, Mr. Yoshida, used to work at Beso and has won numerous awards as a bartender. Tonight, I had a fruit cocktail. It was a short cocktail made with Aomori apples, with a perfect balance of sourness and sweetness, yet refreshing and delicious. The cocktail looked beautiful too. The appetizer was mini pizza. I always end up being full and can't try more, but they have a great variety of food here. I've been wanting to try the fish cutlet sandwich. Drinking a kiwi cocktail while eating the fruit pulp. I love fresh fruit cocktails. Frozen cocktails. I've liked frozen cocktails since Beso. They are not too sweet and very refreshing here! It's a bar where adults gather in a calm atmosphere, with a sophisticated and clean interior. Besides the counter, there are also table seats in the back, so it's suitable for groups. I always come here only for regular meetings, so I should bring some friends next time.

An authentic bar located on the second floor of Shinchi Hon-dori. It's a place where adults can enjoy a drink and some conversation at a leisurely pace. The bar exudes a sense of sophistication, making it the perfect spot for adults in Shinchi. The atmosphere seems a bit intimidating, so it's best to have someone take you there if you're a first-timer. I started with a gin and tonic, followed by the newly released Hibiki 12 on the rocks. It was developed for soda highballs, which explains why it tasted so good. I then switched to a highball, as recommended by the bartender. It was delicious. I learned that each drink has its own unique way of being enjoyed. The bartender's kind explanations were much appreciated. I will definitely be back!
