I passed by the old pine tree street in Nishi-Temma for the first time in a while... and found a stylish Western-style restaurant! The entrance was so stylish that it was hard to find, but inside there were counter and table seats. The table seats were spacious for 4 people, and maybe even 6 could fit? The interior was beautifully designed with simple gray tones and wood. Now, the food? Can we really call this Western-style cuisine?! It's like an evolved version of Western cuisine... but not trying too hard, staying true to the basics! Simple and delicious. The main dishes were of course great, and the side dishes were delicate. The dishes incorporated seasonal flavors and were all delicious! The tuna and firefly squid tartare was amazing, with the smoked tuna doing a great job. The hot onion soup was sweet and comforting. The crab claw croquette had a rich seafood flavor with scallops, and the thick sauce complemented it perfectly. The ayu risotto had a tangy flavor reminiscent of tade vinegar, stimulating the appetite. The tonkatsu sandwich had perfectly toasted bread and perfectly fried cutlets, no complaints there. The omurice had a rich flavor, true Western cuisine! This is definitely a place I will come back to! Thank you for the meal!

Tuna and avocado tartare, sweet potato and chestnut soup, fried crab claws and scallop paste, like a pie with mushrooms inside. The green one is spinach paste. The cutlet sandwich and omelette rice were shared among three people, but the sesame creme brulee was the most satisfying. It is more delicious than any other Western dish under the blue sky.

Omelette rice with hamburger and other classics are all exceptionally delicious at this Western-style restaurant. In particular, the beef cutlet sandwich is rare and cooked to perfection, making it incredibly tender and delicious. Other recommended dishes include tuna and avocado tartare, chicken breast confit, gazpacho, shirako croquette, mahimahi and mushroom pie, hamburger, beef cutlet sandwich, and crusty bread. For dessert, try their coffee.

West Temma. Right near the courthouse. Across from the CD Takou store. The interior is very stylish. All the course meals are charming and delicious. For the finale, you can choose between omurice or katsu sandwich. Of course, I had both (^○^)

In Nishi-Temma, there is a restaurant called "YoShoku Izumi". I actually have another favorite restaurant in Nishi-Temma, but my gourmet radar was triggered by the exterior as I walked past on my way there. I had decided in my heart to visit this restaurant if the timing was right after doing some research. On this day, I finished work early and found out there was an available table, so I visited with light steps. Upon visiting, I understood the reason why they asked for my name in kanji when I made a reservation over the phone! There was a handwritten reservation card placed on the counter. At this point, my heart was already captured. However, the course menu is for 2 people... being solo, I wanted to try the omurice a la carte. While waiting for the omurice, I satisfied my hunger with orange wine and tuna tartare, observing the chef's movements. The omurice arrived shortly after. Luxuriously, there were two types of sauce. The orange-like color of the egg was appetizing. I took a bite... the creamy egg with rich rice. Even though no one asked, a sigh of "delicious..." escaped my lips, as if I were being embraced by a good man. Despite still being piping hot, I couldn't stop eating while breathing heavily. While talking about cooking with the chef as I ate, he noticed my love for cooking and gave advice on the delicious way to cook eggs and even suggested a knife to use, and firmly promised, "Next time, I'll come for the course menu!" On the way back, I even received homemade rusk and left the night fully satisfied. He said, "I've remembered it, so I won't forget!" so those who go should mention my name. By the way, the omurice, tuna tartare, and orange wine came out to a bill of 16,000 yen due to me finishing a bottle alone, which seems like a bug. The actual price is more reasonable, so no need to worry... #Nishi-Temma #OsakaGourmet #YoShokuIzumi #ChefIsImaizumi #DrankTooMuchAlone #SecretsOfEggDishes

Date of visit: 6/8/2023 Dinner Ordered: Half Salted Scallop Terrine, Half Smoked Saba Sandwich, Seafood Dry Curry, Draft Beer x 3 Yesterday, I braved the heavy rain and walked to the Nishi-Temma area. I visited a Western restaurant called Izumi, which I had been to once before their relocation, about 3 years ago. I made a reservation for 7:00 PM and arrived at the restaurant. The atmosphere inside was calm and felt like an adult space. I leisurely looked over the menu while enjoying a light beer. Although they offered a course menu, dining alone made it impractical. I decided to avoid the two special dishes I had tried last time and chose three items that caught my eye. First, I tried the rarely seen Scallop Terrine in a half portion. It was a dish that allowed me to taste the flavor of scallops. Next, I had the Smoked Saba Sandwich, which was different from a typical Turkish saba sandwich and had a more refined taste. I think the bread could have been thinner. Three dishes were a bit too much for one person. Lastly, the Seafood Dry Curry I had was delicious with plenty of shrimp. The total bill came to 7,260 yen. Just like the previous restaurant, the chef, Shinichi, bid me farewell. There were no complimentary rusk this time. Thank you for the meal.

◼️【Overview】◼️This is a highly acclaimed Western-style restaurant in Osaka by many gourmet enthusiasts.◼️【Atmosphere and Features of the Restaurant】◼️Located quietly on Omatsu Street in Nishi-Tenma, Osaka. The interior has an L-shaped counter seat and table seats. The classy and sophisticated decor with stylish background music playing gives off a dining bar vibe. At the counter seats, you can enjoy your meal while watching the chef's cooking. The chef is very cheerful, and his subtle attentiveness was very pleasant. Despite being busy during peak hours, the chef handled the cooking alone and even escorted customers to the exit upon leaving. Thank you very much.◼️【Food】◼️Everything was delicious! According to other reviews, the Western cuisine at this restaurant leans towards French cuisine, and in particular, the "Tuna and Avocado Tartare" was so delicious that it felt like eating high-end French cuisine. Among the dishes I tried, some that left a lasting impression include:○Soup of the Day: It was a soup made with fresh spring onions. The richness and gentle sweetness, without excessive sautéing, were impressive.○Scallop Cream Croquette: The intense flavor of pureed scallops was a standout. The signature dishes of "Omelette Rice" and "Beef Cutlet Sandwich" were undeniably delicious, but what I want to emphasize is that "everything was delicious." Additionally, the soft drinks were also delicious, especially the rich and deep flavor of the grape juice. Writing this has made me crave this Western cuisine... but I live in Tokyo, so there is a distance barrier. Sigh... it's sad... so sad...◼️【Order Details】◼️○Tuna and Avocado Tartare○Soup of the Day○Scallop Cream Croquette○Napolitan Pasta○Beef Cutlet Sandwich○Omelette Rice○Young Chicken Diavolo○Shrimp Butter Rice○Dessert of the Day (Chocolate and Coffee Brûlée)←This was also delicious!▼Drinks○Grape Juice○PerrierThank you for the meal.

Adult western-style restaurant. The restaurant is located in Nishi-Temma. The area is a bit away from the bustling downtown, and I like the atmosphere of adult-oriented shops in the neighborhood. This time, we ordered a course for 7,000 yen. Everything was delicious, but the classic omurice and beef cutlet sandwich were exceptional. Everyone who went there said it was delicious. Even as an adult, I still love the dishes I enjoyed as a child. This time, we visited with five people, but it seems like it would be nice to enjoy at the counter as well. Thank you for the meal.

The entrance to the restaurant was a little hard to find. Inside, there was an L-shaped counter with one table. We ordered a course menu for 7,700 yen. From soup to dessert, every dish was perfect and we were satisfied with the Western-style cuisine. Next time, I would like to try the a la carte menu.

There is a Western-style restaurant near Kita-Shinchi with a somewhat inconspicuous entrance that is always bustling. The chef's skill is very professional. The fried chicken, scallop cream croquette, spaghetti Napolitan, omurice, and pork cutlet sandwich are all classic Western dishes, but the quality is exceptional. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere is stylish and suitable for pairing with alcohol. I ordered a la carte.

I visited Youshu in Oebashi, Osaka. They offer courses for 2 people, but this time we ordered a la carte. The atmosphere was calm and we could enjoy a relaxing adult time. What we had: - Red wine - Tuna and avocado tartare - Pea soup - Omurice - Beef cutlet sandwich Everything was delicious, and the chef's skills were impressive. The omurice was especially outstanding! I will definitely visit again. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

I was invited by @kazuhiko_reidachs to visit "YoShoku Izumi," located about a 10-minute walk from Kitashinchi. It was my first time visiting this restaurant. The interior has an L-shaped counter and one table seat, creating a sophisticated and adult atmosphere. They offer three courses priced at 5,500 yen, 7,700 yen, and 11,000 yen. This time, we chose the 7,700 yen course which included 6 dishes, a delicious omelette rice, and a beef cutlet sandwich. All the dishes were of high quality and absolutely delicious. The standout dishes were the omelette rice and the beef cutlet, which was surprisingly tender. The creamy omelette rice with flavorful sauce was a delight. It was a truly happy time. Thank you, @kazuhiko_reidachs, for the invitation! I highly recommend visiting this restaurant!

The owner of the Western-style restaurant Pastacovo in Nishi-Temma recommended this place as delicious, and it recently received the Bib Gourmand award. Intrigued, I finally visited with a couple, @komegaski, and another friend. We tried the 7000 yen course which included 6 dishes plus a tonkatsu sandwich and omurice. The dishes included mushroom and tuna avocado tartare, scallop and chicken terrine, tomato soup, cod milt meuniere salad, red snapper and scallop paupiette, hamburger, beef cutlet sandwich, omurice, dessert, and a post-meal drink. The tartare toast and terrine for starters were incredibly delicious. The scallop terrine was a first for me and the scent and texture of scallops in terrine form was excellent. The cod milt meuniere had a unique buttery flavor that was both crispy on the outside and tender inside. The main dishes, especially the hamburger with demiglace sauce, were rich and flavorful. The beef cutlet sandwich and omurice were also outstanding, with the sandwich featuring tender red meat and a simple yet delicious sauce, while the omurice had a creamy egg and vegetable-filled rice with a flavorful demiglace sauce. Overall, all the dishes were high-quality and satisfying, and the restaurant's ambiance was lovely, making it a great spot for dates or special occasions. I look forward to coming back for the a la carte menu next time.

After watching the OSK Nippon Opera's "Spring Dance Review" at Osaka Shochikuza, I was able to enjoy a wonderful dinner at "YoShoku Izumi." I had been wondering where to eat beforehand, so I searched for Western cuisine in the Michelin Guide and found this restaurant. I made a reservation and finally arrived on the day of. The interior of the restaurant had a calm, bar-like atmosphere, making it feel like a sophisticated hideaway for adults. I ordered the recommended signature dishes, the "Beef Cutlet Sandwich" and "Omurice," which I had learned about through prior research. I also ordered a half-sized "Italian Salad" for balance. All the dishes were exquisite. In a relaxing atmosphere, I was able to enjoy delicious food and have a very satisfying dinner time. I definitely want to visit again. It would be an ideal restaurant for dates or gatherings with friends.

Dinner was my long-awaited first visit to Izumi. I wanted to try both dishes, so I ordered the omurice and katsu sandwich. The atmosphere in the restaurant was amazing, to the point where I was debating whether to leave a review. From the first dish to the last, everything was excellent. The omurice, in particular, was perfect in terms of the egg's cooking. Overall, everything was outstanding. Thank you for the meal.

I went to have dinner at a Western-style restaurant called Izumi, which has been relocated to Nishi-Tenma in Osaka. I had received a notification about the relocation from the previous location, so I was looking forward to visiting. Since it is a popular restaurant, I made a reservation in advance. The restaurant is about a 10-minute walk from Kitashinchi Station, and it offers an L-shaped counter with 8 seats and a table for 5 people. The interior gives more of a stylish dining bar vibe rather than a traditional Western-style restaurant. It would be a great place for a date or a girls' night out! I had the following drinks: - Draft beer x2 (770 yen each) - Glass of white wine And the following dishes for two people: - Italian salad (1,760 yen) - Today's soup (sweet potato potage) x2 (880 yen each) - Scallop cream croquette (1,980 yen) - Today's fresh fish (cod) (3,080 yen) - Beef cutlet sandwich (3,080 yen) - Omelette rice (1,980 yen) The portions were just right for sharing between two people. I wanted to try more dishes like Neapolitan pasta, shrimp fry, and beef cheek stew, but I was already full by this point. The total cost was a little over 10,000 yen per person. Considering the delicious food and the quality ambiance, I was very satisfied. It felt like a gourmet version of a children's lunch set for adults! I find it hard to believe that this restaurant has a rating of 3.45 on Tabelog (as of February 2023). On my way back, I mentioned to the owner that I had a great meal, and he was very happy to hear that. Although there is another famous restaurant nearby called C.D.TAKOH, I personally prefer Izumi for its high cost performance. In my opinion, it could even rival top Western-style restaurants like Oogata in Kyoto, Grill French, and Iwanaga Shokudo in Miyazaki. This is why I would consider Izumi to be one of the top Western-style restaurants in Japan. If they were to open a branch in Ginza, it would surely become a highly successful restaurant! But please don't go there, as I hope it doesn't become too popular and difficult to make reservations. By sharing this review on Tabelog, the rating might increase, and it could be selected as one of the top 100 restaurants, making it harder to get a reservation. Thank you for the delicious meal. I look forward to visiting again next time.

I always rely on this shop, and this year I went for the Christmas dinner again. Since it was delicious last year, we immediately decided to go again. I chose a curry this time, which I had never tried before. It was incredibly delicious, and I was told they only make it a few times a year, so I was lucky to have it. I have tried their omurice and beef cutlet sandwich before, so I was happy to try their curry this time. It has now become a dish I want to eat whenever it's available. ♡

I started a gourmet site for Mitomi Emon. Homepage "https://blog.33inc.jp/" Instagram "@mitomi_emon" Hamburgers, Napolitan, Omurice, etc., the classic items of children's lunches are not just for kids. Adults also love classic Western menu items. Turning cream soda that used to be a treat into alcohol, enjoying plenty of Western menu items. Fulfilling that dream is "Western Cuisine Izumi" in the Nishi-Temmabashi area of Osaka. The town's classic Western and cafe menu items are lined up, but the quality is unmatched. The chef has a background of honing his skills in authentic French cuisine at the Imperial Hotel, so it's practically French-quality Western cuisine. Also, they have a high awareness of sustainability and do not take an egotistical stance prioritizing only deliciousness. For example, they do not serve pork dishes and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Yet they manage to combine deliciousness, so they deserve applause. Here are three favorite dishes. The beloved "Fried Chicken" that everyone loves. The juicy chicken with a good amount of fat is wrapped in a well-seasoned batter, with soy sauce flavor and saltiness making an excellent match with wine. Another one is the familiar "Napolitan" from cafes. The pasta is cooked to a chewy texture that pushes back slightly. The sauce's acidity is not prominent, coating the pasta with an appetizing flavor. Lastly, the king of Western cuisine, "Omurice." The fluffy and creamy dandelion-style omurice. The tomato sauce used here is made with vegetable broth. It creates a satisfying flavor without animal-based umami. While the fluffy eggs may catch your eye, be sure to also pay attention to the flavor of the chicken rice. Adults, experience the best combination of children's lunches and wine. Check out the rest of the lineup here. "Tuna and Avocado Tartare," "Scallop Terrine," "Cod Milt Meuniere," "Scallop Cream Croquette," "Menchi Katsu"

Daikyo Bridge ◇ Western food ◇ [4th West Tenjin, Kita-ku] Go south from the intersection of National Route 1 and Shingomido (Umeshin Higashi), turn east on the first street on the left, and the third street on the left before the alley on the left side (next to Old Pine Udon) [Western Food Izumi] The two of us visited the restaurant during the three-day weekend after confirming availability on the home page of the store. Since there was no rain, we walked through Utsubo Park from home, headed north on Yotsubashi-suji, passed through Nakanoshima, and arrived at the restaurant. The counter seats and table seats were almost full except for one more seat for us and another couple. The two of us who are picky eaters decided to add a la carte to the 5500 yen course menu. We started with draft beer. ◆ Tuna and avocado tartare with garlic toast ◆ Chestnut soup ◆ Chicken confit with rosemary ◆ Mackerel and mushroom pie with anchovy and cheese ◆ Omelette rice ◎ ■ White wine glass (French) ■ White wine glass (American) ■ Red wine glass (Australian) The chef's movements were efficient, handling dishes for 10 people simultaneously. The BGM of pleasant jazz by Simone Kopmajer and John Coltrane & Johnny Hartman played, and the wine went well. The fluffy omelette rice, covered in demi-glace sauce with plenty of onions, green peppers, and ketchup sauce, was a hit. With room in our stomachs, we added a beef cutlet sandwich to our order (I could feel my family's eyes on me saying they couldn't eat anymore). I was also drawn to the egg sandwich of the customer sitting diagonally in front of me. With the help of wine, I easily managed to eat three sandwiches, which filled up my stomach. I ended the meal with black sesame brûlée and espresso, feeling stuffed. On the way back, we walked south on Midosuji in good spirits, saying "Thank you for the meal."

I had always wanted to visit this restaurant and finally got the chance. Reservations are required. The course menu costs 7000 yen and includes dishes like poké and avocado tartare with garlic toast, herb oil slow-cooked conger and salmon, beetroot soup with garlic and consommé, sautéed cod milt salad, saury and mushroom pie with bean and anchovy sauce, demi-glace hamburger, beef cutlet sandwich, matcha mousse, coffee, beet milk, and grape juice. I thought it was just a local Western-style restaurant, but I was surprised by the elegant atmosphere and French-inspired dishes. The crispy meat and juicy beef cutlet sandwich were delicious, and I felt happy to try the hamburger too. The grape juice was also tasty, maybe because it was served in a wine glass. There were many intriguing dishes like egg sandwich, shrimp cream croquette, smoked oyster oil pickles, and shrimp butter rice. I would love to come back if possible. It's impressive to see only two staff members efficiently serving so many customers ordering the course menu. It was fun to watch them work.

I made a reservation by phone and walked about 15 minutes from Hankyu Osaka Umeda Station to visit the restaurant. It was rumored to be a place that is difficult to get a reservation at, but it seems to have become easier to book since relocating. With the quality of this restaurant, it wouldn't be surprising if it quickly became one of the top 100 restaurants or a place with hard-to-get reservations. There are three course options, and I chose the cheapest one this time. I was impressed by the volume, taste, and high quality presentation. The finale of omurice came with a little show, and there were exclamations of admiration from every table. Although I was satisfied with the course, I couldn't resist getting a katsu sandwich to go. The perfectly toasted bread with a crispy crust added a delightful touch. I was moved by the attention to detail. I definitely want to visit again. Course... 5,500 yen (tax included) Oolong tea... 660 yen (tax included) Katsu sandwich (takeout)... 3,080 yen (tax included)
