On the second day of my visit on August 8, for dinner, I initially thought about a restaurant in Higo Bridge, but suddenly felt like having yakiniku, so I changed my mind! However, I didn't want to eat at the restaurant, so I thought maybe a yakiniku bento would be fine... I'm such a coward, not feeling like a food tour participant... I remembered there was a bento place over there! So, I headed to Hankyu Sanbangai in Umeda. On the basement 2nd floor, there was a shop called "Daidomon Hankyu Sanbangai Store." This shop is located across from "Honmiyake," where I went last month. I was torn between the two at that time... Ultimately, I chose to go to Honmiyake, which was recommended, but this shop was also appealing. Now, about the bento options, there were yakiniku bento, gyudon bento, and wagyu steak bento. But, there was a menu that caught my eye... "Colorful Yakiniku Set." This was not a bento, but a menu for dining in! However, once I saw it, I was more drawn to it than the bento in terms of cost-effectiveness. So, I decided to dine in! I ordered the "Colorful Yakiniku Set." This shop also has built-in grills at the counter seats, so you can enjoy yakiniku on your own. I added "Upper Mino" to my order! In addition, there were "Solo Yakiniku Special Menus" and all-you-can-eat options as well. The "Colorful Yakiniku Set" came with yakiniku bara karubi, loin, and 4 types of namul. I asked for extra rice, and the bento had a satisfying volume. The seasoning was a bit strong, but it was definitely a bento that you would want to dig into. It also came with soup, kimchi, and fruits, making it a great value set. The "Upper Mino" came with 5 slices per serving. Of course, being from a long-established yakiniku restaurant, the taste was excellent. However, I accidentally burnt it, which was a mistake. I might consider trying the all-you-can-eat option next time. I don't want to end my experience with just this visit, as this is a restaurant worth revisiting. Thank you for the meal!

I was captivated by the sign that caught my eye, advertising a meat lunch... "Gyuu Meshi" sounds similar to "Gyudon" but has a more upscale feel like a yakiniku restaurant. The color of the beef simmered in the secret sauce represents the deliciousness of the Gyuu Meshi. The sweet soy sauce flavor that Japanese people love is so satisfying to eat. The sauce soaked into the rice is also incredibly delicious. You can choose the amount of rice from large, medium, or small, which is a subtle but nice touch. I also noticed the green onions placed in the corner, which I thought was a clever use of universal design. It shows the customer-oriented mindset of the restaurant. In addition to the Gyuu Meshi, the meal comes with miso soup, kimchi, and a substantial amount of salad, all for only 880 yen, which is a great deal! They even offer a 200 yen discount from the original price of 1,080 yen. Overall, a great dining experience at Daidoumon Hankyu Sanbangai branch.

During lunchtime, I ordered the Set Beef Bowl for two people. You can choose between large, medium, or small rice, and I chose small. The rice was a bit firm, possibly due to less water or shorter soaking time. The meat used was a lean cut, also on the firmer side. Considering the price, is it really worth it?

Located a little further back on Sanbancho, I didn't know it existed. Met up with a classmate of half a century in Umeda. Had lunch, added a single item, and finished with cold noodles. We didn't drink alcohol and the total bill for two was just under 10,000 yen. If you only come for lunch, it's reasonably priced so I'll come back again.

I had made a reservation, so I was able to enjoy a meal in a calm setting, which was great. The meat was delicious, and there were also satisfying set menu options. The staff were attentive and left a good impression. I would like to visit again.

Met up with an old friend and headed to a longstanding yakiniku restaurant we've been going to since way back. The shop we were looking for on Umeda Shinmichi seemed to have closed (or moved?), so we ended up at the Hankyu Sanbangai location instead. The menu wasn't trying to be fancy, just a lineup of classic yakiniku dishes. The familiar flavors brought back memories and sparked lively conversation. They even had solo yakiniku seats for those dining alone, providing a relaxed space to enjoy a meal. Hankyu Sanbangai is always bustling with many inbound tourists, and all the shops were lively.

I was debating between having yakiniku or a bento set, but I ended up choosing the bento set. It came with salad, namul, kimchi, a light and fluffy rolled omelette, yakiniku, miso soup, and rice (you can choose from large, medium, or small). There were plenty of vegetables, and the balance with the meat was good. The kimchi had a rich flavor and was delicious.

Visited with a middle school student on a Sunday night. Compared to other nearby restaurants, the waiting time was short, only about 5 minutes of waiting at the entrance. We ordered the 55th Anniversary Set for 5500 yen, which included various cuts of Japanese beef and Korean side dishes for two people. The price seemed reasonable for the quality of the meat, which had a good balance of fat and lean meat. There were two types of sauces that were both delicious. In addition to the meat set, we also ordered tongue assortment, cold noodles, 3 alcoholic drinks, and 2 soft drinks, which totaled to around 10,000 yen for two people. The restaurant had a diverse clientele, including families, couples, friends, and solo diners of various ages. While it's not extremely cheap, being located in Hankyu Sanbangai in Umeda, it's a reliable and trustworthy traditional yakiniku restaurant.

We visited the restaurant with a friend because we were talking about how we needed more iron in our diet! It was our first time at this place, although we had heard of it before. The meat was tender and delicious. It was a calm atmosphere without any noisy customers, which made it easy to enjoy our meal.

I challenged the jjigae at a yakiniku restaurant! Even though it's a yakiniku place, I chose the jjigae lunch set! In simple terms, it has a flavor that is easy for Japanese people to enjoy! It has plenty of ingredients like tofu, seafood, and vegetables! The only downside was that the onions were a bit hard, but overall it was a good deal with seaweed included in the lunch set. ^_^

I can easily enter without lining up, and there is no discomfort in having a woman dine alone, so I use it occasionally. I had a delicious lunch with 100g of Harami for 1190 yen, with extra rice. I like to add not only garlic but also Gochujang to the sauce at my seat, so I asked the staff. In the past, there used to be Gochujang at the seats too.

I was looking for a place where I could enjoy yakiniku by myself, so I visited this restaurant. They warmly welcomed me even though I was dining alone, and I ordered the Harami lunch. I appreciated being able to choose the amount in grams ( ´∀｀) I had 100g, and it had a good thickness and the sauce went well with the rice (*^^*) Even though my clothes may end up smelling like meat, when I have that craving for meat, I will definitely come back here.

Located near Hankyu Umeda Station in Osaka, in the restaurant area of Hankyu Sanban-gai, there is a restaurant with a sign that boldly says, "I'm coming for solo yakiniku." I visited alone around 5 p.m. on a Sunday. I was seated at a counter facing each other. Due to infection prevention measures, there is one seat left empty, so the space for one person is quite spacious. They offer sets for one person, and you can also order additional meat starting from 2 slices. There are lunch sets available, but you can also order sets at any time. ● Set C: Negi Shio Aburi Kalbi and Harami Yaki - 1910 yen I chose the Bibimbap set for my rice. Both the Kalbi and Harami had more meat than I expected. The Kalbi was juicy and delicious. You can also get sauce and salt. The garlic is individually wrapped for hygiene. The Bibimbap was a half portion, but it was quite a generous amount. The Gochujang wasn't initially included, but you can get it in a separate dish and adjust it yourself. I enjoyed dipping the meat in it. ● Jim Beam Highball - 440 yen There were quite a few solo diners. Each seat has a call button, making it easy to call the staff even though the restaurant is quite spacious. Thank you for the meal! (⁠*⁠´⁠ω⁠｀⁠*⁠)

The accent of the namul was great! I ordered the upgraded yakiniku set, and the presence of namul gave it a bibimbap-like feel which was great. The meat was delicious, but overall there wasn't anything particularly outstanding about it, to be honest. However, the presence of namul added an original touch which was nice!

Yakiniku restaurant in Hankyu Sanbangai. Visited for the first time on a weekday night. Salted tongue 980 yen, Assorted Harami (skirt steak) 1650 yen, Black beef cut-off pieces 760 yen, Daikon kimchi 430 yen, Daedongmun crispy salad 540 yen, Kimchi cheese stone pot bibimbap 1090 yen, Wrapped vegetable set 640 yen, Buttered potatoes 540 yen, Beer (medium bottle) Black oolong tea. Total for two people was 7630 yen. The meat and side dishes were very delicious.

I went to a seafood izakaya for lunch, but they were sold out by the time I arrived after 1 pm. Feeling disappointed, I decided to head to the underground shopping street. I found a place I had heard of before and decided to try it out. I ordered the popular "Gyudon set with extra rice" and it arrived in 7-8 minutes. The dish looked similar to the gyudon from a famous place in Ise. The secret sweet and savory sauce, passed down from the founding days, paired well with the perfectly cooked rice. The kimchi added a spicy kick, enhancing the overall flavor. Although I got a bit full towards the end, I managed to finish it all. The miso soup was average and the salad was refreshing. I realized that I must try the hand-cut yakiniku by the in-house meat expert next time. The chaotic entrance already has me excited for my next visit. I will definitely be back to try their yakiniku set menu.

This yakiniku restaurant is located in Hankyu Umeda 3rd Avenue. Inside, there are about 6 table seats. The quality of the meat and cost performance are average. Since there are many yakiniku restaurants in Umeda, it may not be a place you visit often, but it's a restaurant that makes you want to go again.

Daidomon is a yakiniku restaurant located just a 1-minute walk from Hankyu Umeda Station (B1F Hankyu Sanbangai). You can order a variety of meats here, and they have branches in Umeda, Esaka, and Kyobashi. I ordered the Yakiniku Enjoyment Set for 2,240 yen, which includes salted tongue, loin, harami, and kalbi with napa cabbage kimchi and salad. You can choose between rice set, half stone pot bibimbap set, or half cold noodles set. I also tried the spicy stone pot bibimbap for 1,000 yen and a small bottle of beer for 640 yen. They have counter seats, making it easy for solo diners to enjoy their meal. Even on weekend nights, there were quite a few solo diners. It's a great place to stop by for yakiniku in Umeda. Thank you for the meal.

I wanted to have a quick and delicious yakiniku meal during my day trip to Osaka, so I decided to visit this restaurant located in Hankyu Sanbangai directly connected to Osaka Station. The interior of the restaurant was bright and clean, and there were a lot of women dining there. I arrived at 5:00 pm, so I thought I would order individual items, but I ended up ordering the set menu which included tongue, kalbi, and half stone bibimbap for 1800 yen. The meat was tender and flavorful with a good amount of fat. The staff were also friendly. I would definitely consider visiting this restaurant again the next time I'm in Osaka.

My husband and I had a great time catching up with a friend from Tokyo who came to Osaka. We went out for yakiniku with a group of four, which was a rare treat for us. The food was delicious and the drinks were flowing, making it a fantastic evening. We forgot to take note of what we ordered, but that didn't take away from our enjoyment. We all agreed that we would love to come back again in the future.

I ordered a set of skirt steak, salted beef with green onions, and bibimbap. It was perfect for the current situation as you can order the amount for each person. There was a slight sense of privacy with vinyl curtains separating the seats. I was able to enjoy a good balance of vegetables, meat, and rice and ended up feeling pleasantly full. It was just a little bit lacking, but it was satisfying enough at 80% full. Thank you for the meal!
