I visited during lunchtime! Since there were small children with us, we sat at a table seat. The seats were spacious and comfortable! The lunch menu offers 10 set meals, and you can have unlimited rice refills. I enjoyed the smell of oil and the taste of the batter from Kushi-no-Bo's dishes! If you sit at the counter, you can eat freshly fried dishes each time, but this time we had them all on one plate. Next time, I definitely want to try the course meal! Thank you for the delicious meal!

Today, I went to Shitennoji Temple for the Bon Festival visit. Despite the heat, many people were there for prayers. There was also a fair set up inside the temple grounds. On my way back, I thought about where to have lunch. I debated between going to a kushikatsu place or this restaurant on the 11th floor of MIO. I decided to go to this restaurant, which I hadn't visited in years. We reminisced about old times while enjoying the lunch set. I ordered the kushikatsu set with 10 skewers for 1500 yen. It included a variety of skewers such as shrimp, pork fillet, konjac, pumpkin, quail egg, beef, asparagus, stuffed bell pepper, yakitori, and shrimp wrapped in shiso leaves. The set came with sauce and salt. I asked for half a portion of rice but still couldn't finish it all. The set also came with salad, miso soup (which had pork in it, making it more like tonjiru), and pickles. Overall, I found the quantity and price to be reasonable and enjoyed the meal.

Lunch on this day was in Tennoji. It's a support lunch for a restaurant that is still operating despite the coronavirus pandemic. I had the "Kushikatsu Set Meal" from Kushikatsu restaurant "Kushi no Bo Tennoji Mio Store" located in the main building restaurant area of Tennoji Mio. There is also a "Kushi no Bo" in Abeno Harukas in Tennoji (I've only seen it, never eaten there haha). As expected, the lunch at the Mio store is much more reasonable in price compared to the one at Harukas. For a good and reasonable lunch, Mio store is the place to go. Now, about the "Kushikatsu Set Meal", it came with 8 pieces of kushikatsu, rice, miso soup, salad, pickles, and a small side dish. The kushikatsu included "shrimp, meat, fish, vegetable quail egg, konjac, etc." as written on the menu. In the past at the Ebisu Bridge store, 1 or 2 freshly fried pieces would be served one by one, but this time, all varieties were served at once. I didn't listen carefully to the staff, so I wasn't exactly sure which kushikatsu was which. The one in the front is konjac haha. Kushikatsu at Kushi no Bo is always delicious. The kushikatsu set meal was so delicious!

There were three lunch sets available. We ordered the set with 10 skewers for 1760 yen including tax. The difference with the set below was that it included shrimp for an additional 500 yen. The fried dishes were delicious. We don't usually make such a variety of dishes at home, so it was nice to enjoy different flavors.

I was in Abeno that day and on my way back, I stopped by Mio to eat before heading home. During the previous period of the coronavirus, the restaurant was empty, but this time there were quite a few customers already there. It seems that having the restaurant busy is more inviting for customers than when it's empty. I decided to go with the usual chef's choice course. This time, I was quite hungry, so I think I had over 20 pieces of sushi. And to finish off, I had an extra serving of delicious ochazuke. Thank you for the meal. I will definitely come back again.

I went to Tennoji Mio's Kushinobo for dinner (^^). It was slightly more reasonable than Kushinobo in Harukas, so I chose this restaurant. I sat at the counter and they served freshly fried skewers one by one. This time, I ordered the set menu of 8 skewers. It came with rice, miso soup, salad, and pickles. The salad was not a stick salad, but a regular salad with sliced cabbage, cherry tomatoes, and corn. In the course menu, it seems that a stick salad is included. The skewers were all crispy, hot, and very delicious. The kisu (sillago) skewer was especially delicious. I will visit again!

I had lunch at Mio on this day. I was wandering around thinking about where to eat, and I ended up at Kushino Bosan, a place I had only been to at night before. I had a non-alcoholic lunch, which included 7 pieces of kushikatsu for 850 yen. It also came with small dishes, salad, miso soup, and rice. You could have seconds of rice and miso soup. I was happy to be able to eat freshly fried kushikatsu for lunch. Thank you for the meal.

2019: Revisited my beloved "Kushi no Bo" after a long time! The service from the staff is excellent and very comforting. I recommend sitting at the counter where you can get freshly fried skewers. The 7 skewers lunch set is only 850 yen tax included. It includes rice, fresh vegetable salad, kinpira, miso soup, and pickles. You can have unlimited rice and miso soup, which is a great service for men. The 7 skewers are all delicious and each has its own unique touch. Shrimp, quail, Nanjing, pork, konjac, stuffed bell pepper, and white fish. The price is very reasonable considering the quality and satisfaction of the meal.

I was taken to a shop in Hozoji a long time ago and I have been to a shop in Shinchi a few times, but I didn't know there was one in MIO as well. It's not a Shinsekai-style place, but a stylish kushikatsu restaurant. I like the shops where you can't dip the skewers twice, but it's also fun to eat at a place with unique twists. The lunch menu seems like a good deal.

The tempura itself was delicious, but I ordered the chef's choice and it took a long time to be served because the restaurant was busy. By the time I was full, I got tired of waiting. It would have been more enjoyable if there were more varieties of tempura.

Five-year wedding anniversary!

Long time no see, kushikatsu ❤️

I visited for dinner on Saturday. I had made a reservation for 5:00 pm. The restaurant was not crowded on Saturdays, so I may not have needed to make a reservation. The horse mackerel was delicious as always.

During shopping at Tennoji Mio, I got hungry and stopped by Kushinobo around 3:30 pm. I ordered the colorful set meal for 1250 yen (tax included). It came with salad, rice, miso soup, and various side dishes, offering a satisfying portion. The taste was average. The place was not crowded, so I could relax. The staff members left a very good impression.

This is a restaurant review for a kushikatsu (deep-fried skewers) restaurant located in the Tennoji Mio Main Building, a complex building directly above JR Tennoji Station. The restaurant is situated on the 11th floor, which has a calm and sophisticated atmosphere compared to other eateries in the area. The interior is decorated in a folk art style with subdued lighting, offering around 30 seats at the counter and tables. During lunchtime, my wife and I visited this restaurant and opted for the most luxurious lunch set priced at 1,550 yen, which included a salad, pickled vegetables, rice, and miso soup. The rice and miso soup were refillable. The skewers were freshly fried in front of us and served with a variety of sauces and condiments on the side. The lunch set was reasonably priced, making it a great option for regular visits.

I went to Mio after a long time! It looks so beautiful (;゜∇゜) After finishing shopping, I wandered around thinking about what to eat. Since it was a weekday, there weren't many people in the cafeteria. I decided to go to Kushino-bo for a hearty meal. I ordered a set meal and after a while, they brought it out on a big tray with small dishes, miso soup, and pickles all neatly arranged... just seeing that got me excited! I enjoyed eating the fried food without knowing what was inside! Overall, the taste was okay. Thank you for the meal!

I was planning to have a light meal, but somehow ended up dining here (laughs). Of course, I sat at the counter facing the chef! I ordered the kushikatsu set for 850 yen. It came with rice, miso soup, salad, pickles, and tsukemono. The salad was generous, and the miso soup was delicious, so I couldn't help but ask for seconds (laughs). The pickles were a bit too salty, but since I had extra rice (laughs), I didn't complain. The set included shrimp, quail, stuffed bell pepper, pork, pumpkin, konjac, and white fish – seven items in total. The freshly fried kushikatsu was so delicious! The chef and staff were very polite, making it a happy lunch experience. They asked if I wanted to sit at the counter or a table, and I chose the counter, which was the right choice! They fried each item in order, based on how I was eating – what a luxury! Shrimp, quail, stuffed bell pepper, pork, pumpkin... all were light, crispy, and tasty! The konjac had sweet miso, and the white fish had mayonnaise on top. There were sauces like tonkatsu sauce, ponzu, mustard, salt, and ketchup provided, and the ponzu sauce went well with the kushikatsu! Overall, it was a satisfying meal for women with rice, miso soup, simmered vegetables, and pickles. The only downside was that the rice was a bit mushy and not very tasty. It was disappointing... The chef explaining each item as they were fried added a touch of sophistication and made the experience enjoyable.

It's been a while since I had lunch at "Kushi no Bo"♪ On January 4, 2013. This time, I went to the restaurant with my son in Tennoji, Osaka. The restaurant is located in Tennoji MIO, and they offer a variety of set meals for lunch. We decided on the "Colorful Skewer Set Meal" and the "Ladies Set Meal," both of which were delicious and satisfying. The restaurant was quite busy, with a wait of about 4 groups ahead of us. The atmosphere was cozy, and the food was not greasy at all, making it easy for us to finish our meals. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience and I was happy to see that the quality of the food has remained consistent over the years.
