Introduction ~ The stable hot pot from Ooyama! Ooyama never disappoints! ~ After watching a movie at LUCUA, it was time for dinner, so we decided to explore the dining options at LUCUA. Feeling a bit chilly from the movie, we settled on having motsunabe at Ooyama's restaurant. This was my first time visiting the LUCUA branch of Ooyama, although I have been to their other branches in Umeda a few times. Just like the other branches, the Ooyama restaurant at LUCUA delivered a consistent and delicious dining experience, without any disappointments. Menu: - Motsunabe Miso Flavor (1390 yen per person) I always think about trying the soy sauce flavor, but I end up choosing miso every time. The miso flavor is just so delicious and it really warms you up. The presentation starts with neatly arranged green onions, but they quickly become messy around the hot pot, giving that authentic motsunabe feel. The taste was excellent as always! For the finishing touch, we had their signature champon noodles. We were already full and couldn't eat anymore. Thank you for the meal!

After enjoying a movie with my partner, we headed down to the restaurant floor below. It was hot, so we decided to eat something spicy! We chose to have motsunabe for lunch, and tried the seasonal spicy miso flavor. I ordered champon noodles, but my partner, who has a big appetite, also ordered extra rice. The lingering summer heat is tough, but we'll get through it with this meal!

I have used this restaurant for lunch many times. It is conveniently located on the top of Lucua, and when you make a reservation, you can be seated in a semi-private booth. The service is quick, so you can enjoy the motsunabe smoothly. Thank you for the meal.

Today, I went to the popular Hakata motsunabe restaurant Ooyama in Osaka. The miso-flavored motsunabe at Ooyama Osaka has a slightly refreshing taste at first, similar to Kyoto style, but when simmered, it transforms into the usual rich and hearty miso flavor with the Change Soup. The beef motsu is also light and goes perfectly with the motsunabe. Lunchtime is a good deal, but at night, you can enjoy a generous amount of motsu.

You can also enjoy the taste of famous restaurants in Hakata at Osaka Station. It's convenient to be able to use it even when it's outside of meal times. So, it's now late lunchtime. I visited the restaurant area on the upper floors of Osaka Station, Lucua Osaka, for some help. I entered "Hakata motsunabe Ooyama" and decided to go with a single pot dish. I ordered the "motsunabe set meal" and chose the recommended miso flavor for the broth. While waiting for the pot to boil, I had some pickled radish and rice to whet my appetite. The pickled radish had a delicious hint of yuzu. Soon, the vegetables in the pot became tender and ready to eat. The crunchy vegetables soaked in the miso broth were delicious. There were plenty of tender "motsu" pieces at the bottom of the pot. The chewy texture and umami of the "motsu" were delightful. It goes well with rice, but I think it would also be perfect with alcohol. It's a great place to enjoy "motsunabe" easily.

I revisited the restaurant because I liked the atmosphere and the food was delicious. Even though it was 3:59 pm, they kindly allowed me to order from the lunch menu until 4:00 pm. I ordered the Ooyama set meal and an extra bowl of rice. It was delicious as always. I love the lemon tablet they give after paying. Just a heads up, your hair might smell like hot pot afterwards and you might feel a bit bloated the next day!

The restaurant is open for lunch until 4 pm, which is later than many other places that close around 2 pm. I made a reservation and arrived around 3:30 pm on a weekday, and there were no other customers so I was seated right away. They have regular tables as well as semi-private booths, which I personally prefer for a more private dining experience. After 4 pm, there is a seating charge. I ordered the Ooyama set meal, which is smaller than the individual motsunabe dish but still a good portion. If you need more, you can add extra ingredients for a slightly discounted price during lunch hours compared to dinner. I chose the miso flavor, which was on the lighter side. The dish included cabbage, leeks, and burdock root, and I added rice to make a delicious porridge. They have wine bottles available, but you can't order a bottle of shochu, and the all-you-can-drink option is only available for dinner courses. If you become friends on social media, you can get a Kyushu soy sauce ice cream, which surprisingly tasted really good with a hint of soy sauce flavor. At the cashier, they offer lemon tablets instead of mints, which was a refreshing way to end the meal.

At around noon on a regular day, when all the department store restaurants were crowded for lunch, I stumbled upon a place that wasn't busy - a Hakata motsunabe restaurant! It had been a while since I had motsunabe, so I felt lucky that it was not crowded. The restaurant was spacious and clean. My friend and I decided to order the Motsunabe Set Meal with extra rice and the Motsunabe Set Meal with Champon noodles, both serving two people. The difference between the set meal and the set meal with Champon noodles is that the former includes tender beef tripe. The motsunabe had a good amount of volume and was quite satisfying for lunch. It had the classic taste of motsunabe, and I was happy to see that it came with mentaiko and yuzu radish. We started by eating the rice and as the soup reduced, we used a plate to scoop it up. Towards the end, we added the Champon noodles to the remaining soup and shared it. The noodles themselves were average. Overall, it was a delicious and satisfying meal. Despite many crowded restaurants in Umeda, I was pleased to find a clean and uncrowded place where we could dine smoothly. Thank you for the meal!

After a girls' night out, my friend and I decided to come here to this restaurant and ordered the soy sauce flavored motsunabe for 1630 yen. It is located on the 10th floor of Lucua, directly connected to JR Osaka Station. After enjoying shopping, my friend insisted on having dinner as well. Intrigued by the horumon nabe for the first time, we entered the restaurant. The chewy horumon had no unpleasant smell, creamy texture, and a good mouthfeel. The soup was flavorful enough to drink up, with a spicy kick from the chili pepper. Even though we couldn't finish it all, I'm sure the zosui (rice soup) would be amazing. The first motsunabe experience was surprisingly delicious, and I'd like to try the miso flavor next time.

On this day, I had a hot pot lunch with a VIP customer from Fukuoka, who specifically requested it. We had the chicken sukiyaki-style broth with ponzu sauce. Personally, I prefer soy sauce or miso broth, but the vinegar tripe that came with it was amazing. It made me wish I could have had some sake with it. Overall, it was a challenging lunch experience.

My child recommended this place because they had a delicious meal during their trip to Hakata, so our family, including the recommender, visited the restaurant. We ordered some recommended dishes while waiting for the motsunabe to arrive. The motsunabe was delicious with a strong garlic flavor. We all enjoyed it and ended up ordering an additional serving of motsu, which we finished completely. We were satisfied, but we realized we may have overeaten a bit. Next time, we'll order a bit less. The food was delicious, and we had a great time as a family. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I was able to enjoy a cost-effective motsu (offal) hot pot! Although it was for 2 people, there was enough for about 3 people, which was great! The motsu was tender and large, providing a satisfying chew. We also ordered a platter of horse sashimi, and everything was delicious, so I was very satisfied!

I chose the course menu with all-you-can-drink option! The taste of motsunabe was miso flavor! When the side dish mentaiko arrived, I couldn't help but ask for more rice! But I had to resist for the champon at the end. However, I drank a lot of alcohol, so overall I was full! The side dishes included beef tripe, horse sashimi, and mentaiko. The complimentary potato salad with yuzu pepper was delicious! I wanted more of that potato salad. The drink menu for the all-you-can-drink option was extensive! It cost around 12,000 yen for two people and we even got change back. The price was a bit high, but worth it. It was a slightly luxurious dinner! The horse sashimi was served with Kyushu soy sauce, which I love. The cabbage in the motsunabe was soft, which I like. Even though the restaurant was crowded on a weekday night, we were able to get a table without waiting because we didn't make a reservation. This was the best motsunabe I have ever had! It's a bit challenging with the garlic and leeks, but it's not scary when you eat it with others! I will definitely go back to this place! Thank you for the meal!

[Nearest Station] 1 minute walk from Osaka Station [Budget] 4,000 yen to 8,000 yen [Payment Methods] Cash, Card, Electronic Money, QR Code [Menu] - Miso-flavored Motsunabe (Tripe Hot Pot) 1,694 yen per person (order for 2 people or more) - Hakata Mentaiko (Spicy Cod Roe) 638 yen - White Sesame Tripe Sashimi 748 yen - Beef Tendon Stew 748 yen [Comments] I had some time before heading back to Tokyo from Osaka, so I decided to visit "Hakata Motsunabe Ooyama Osaka Station." It was around 6:00 PM on a Sunday and I didn't have a reservation, but I was seated right away. About 10 minutes later, there was a long line of people waiting for a table, so I recommend making a reservation if possible. We started with the White Sesame Tripe Sashimi, which is a must-order item for me whenever available. The crunchy texture is irresistible. The Hakata Mentaiko had just the right amount of spiciness for two people and went perfectly with rice. The Beef Tendon Stew was also flavorful and paired well with rice. The main dish, the Motsunabe, was satisfying with a generous amount of tripe that was both chewy and tender. Overall, we left the restaurant feeling full and satisfied. Thank you for the delicious meal. *Posted on 3/11*

I couldn't forget the taste I had at Hakata Station, and I really wanted to eat it again. And then I found out that they have a branch in Osaka! The texture of the tender motsu (offal) is irresistible. And the pork bone soup with grated garlic really stimulates the appetite. So delicious. I was initially planning to order a single item, but ended up ordering the Hakata Ooyama set because it's a better deal. They are really good at business.

Before watching a movie, I had a solo lunch! I ordered the Ooyama set meal for 1970 yen (excluding tax) and a draft beer! Draft beer during lunchtime on a weekday is the best! The Ooyama set meal is like a dream, with motsunabe (tripe hot pot) accompanied by my favorite horse sashimi, beef tripe, and mentaiko (spicy cod roe)! While waiting for the hot pot to cook, I enjoyed the horse sashimi and tripe with my beer! I decided to try the summer limited edition tantan motsunabe. It was served with sesame sauce and the tripe was deliciously tender! I had another draft beer! Although it was described as spicy, it wasn't that spicy, so I thought it could have been a bit spicier! The hot pot ingredients included plenty of vegetables such as cabbage, bean sprouts, burdock, and garlic chives! The tripe was chewy, tender, and tasty! For the finale, I chose Chinese noodles instead of rice. The noodles were coated in the soup and tasted just like tantanmen! The staff kindly added more soup halfway through, so I ended up with a bit of extra delicious soup! I thought mixing the soup with rice would be amazing, but I resisted the temptation! The atmosphere of the restaurant and the staff were pleasant, and I had a very satisfying lunch in a relaxed setting!

@Umeda: ★★★☆☆ 3.08 on Tabelog. [Great for having beer and motsunabe during the day] I wanted to eat motsu (offal) during the day, so I went to Ooyama. It was relatively empty during lunchtime! Motsunabe set meal for 1400 yen. Beer goes really well with it. #KansaiGourmet #OsakaGourmet #OsakaStation #UmedaLunch #motsunabe #unprocessed #japan #happy #food

Today, I went to a motsunabe (tripe hot pot) restaurant in Osaka! It was my first time here, and I heard that the most popular flavor for motsunabe is miso. Apparently, 90% of people who come to the restaurant order miso flavor! However, this time I chose soy sauce flavor. The motsu (tripe) in the hot pot was really delicious! However, I couldn't help but notice a strong garlic smell in the restaurant even after entering. So, if you're worried about it lingering on you the next day, be cautious! The kimchi at the restaurant was also tasty with a good level of spiciness. I think I'll try the miso flavor next time!

For the second serving, we had potato salad with yuzu, a hint of motsunabe, soy sauce horse sashimi, and kimchi with grated yam, followed by Champon noodles as the finale. The motsunabe had a reliably good taste, the horse sashimi was not bad, but the kimchi with grated yam lacked kimchi flavor, which was disappointing. I think just having motsunabe would be enough!

We ordered the miso flavored motsunabe for 2 people as recommended by a friend who had been to the restaurant before. The miso flavor was rich and the motsu was very tender and chewy. Even though we thought it might not be enough for 2 people, it turned out to be quite filling for two women. The side dishes of tender beef tendon and yam kimchi were also delicious. The potato salad served as a complimentary appetizer was seasoned with yuzu pepper and was very tasty. The restaurant has private rooms and is taking thorough measures against COVID-19. The staff is also very polite. It's a calm and comfortable place to enjoy a meal.

This is my fourth visit. Located in LUCUA, it has good access, is affordable, and even if you're dining alone, you can easily find a table and enjoy delicious food. Having lived in Fukuoka for a long time, I am quite picky about horse sashimi, but here, even when ordered as a set, it is always delicious. You can enjoy it for around 2,000 yen, and the fact that they serve lunch until 4 p.m. is also very convenient.
