Everyone was busy and it had been a while since our foodie gathering ♬.*゚Here at "Ajihira", our wonderful connections began. We are truly grateful for the kindness we have received. I'm back! Fugu є(・Θ・。)э››~ It was delicious without a doubt! We had the Tetchiri set for 2500 yen each for 3 people, and the volume of fugu was amazing! The chunks were big and satisfying. The set also included plenty of side dishes like Chinese cabbage, chrysanthemum greens, tofu, and maroni. And that ponzu sauce that never seems to dilute, what is it? We all had our doubts but enjoyed it deliciously. The Tessa for 1000 yen was like a prelude with its firm texture, sweetness when chewed, and perfect pairing with alcohol. It already raised our spirits. (Although mine was pretty low that day...) The Butsukiri Tessa for 1200 yen was even thicker than the Tessa, almost too much to chew at once (lol). Thick and satisfying♡ If you want to enjoy the taste of the fish, go for the Tessa. The Shirako Teriyaki was what I wanted the most ♡ The creamy and mild Shirako with shiny teriyaki sauce was the best! I could keep eating this forever. I feel truly happy when eating this ( ˶¯꒳¯˵)。o♡ The Fugu Karaage for 1200 yen had a gentle and fluffy texture of fugu with a crispy coating. The way the fish is cooked makes a big difference in the firmness of the meat, and this one was fluffy and delicious! The Zousui for 400 yen was the perfect way to end the Tetchiri meal. I only had a small bite because I was going out for wine afterwards, but it was delicious and comforting. One serving was enough for the 4 of us. "Fugu is definitely best at Ajihira, right?" We all agreed unanimously. We want to come back next year with everyone ♬.*゚

If you want to eat blowfish in Osaka, this is the place to go! I was taken here and all the blowfish dishes exceeded my expectations in terms of size, thickness, and deliciousness. The blowfish sashimi, simmered blowfish skin, fried blowfish, and finishing porridge were all incredibly delicious. The prices were not too high, making it a reasonably priced option for a blowfish restaurant in Osaka. It seems that reservations are hard to come by, but I would love to visit again if I have the chance. The drink selection is not extensive, but they have all the basics like beer and highballs. It was full even on a weekday!

I was brought here because I couldn't understand the deliciousness of fugu. We tried tessa, karaage, tetchiri nabe, and zosui for the finish. The tessa had a nice firmness with a flavorful ponzu sauce and grated daikon. It was pretty delicious. The karaage also had a nice firmness, like fried chicken thigh meat. It was pretty delicious. The tetchiri nabe was amazing. Thick slices of fugu cooked with plenty of vegetables in a simmering pot, eaten with ponzu sauce. It was exquisite. And the zosui, made with the essence of the deliciousness of the fugu and the vegetables, was incredibly delicious. I finally understand why everyone raves about fugu. This fugu specialty restaurant was not as expensive as I thought. Delicious. Filling. I already miss the zosui. I will definitely come back.笑

We enjoyed summer fugu dishes such as boiled fugu, sashimi, deep-fried fugu, and fugu hot pot. The sliced sashimi and hot pot were especially delicious. The portion size was generous, and even though there were four of us, we were all satisfied with three portions of hot pot and a final course of rice porridge.

I was impressed by the thickness of the fugu skin that was served at the beginning. The fugu sashimi and boiled fugu pieces that followed were always firm and full of flavor! The meal ended with a delicious porridge that was packed with flavor and left me feeling satisfied. Looking forward to visiting again next year!

I want to eat the best simple fugu! It's a very popular place ♥ - Shirako (raw) ?? yen I have eaten shirako many times, and it has a strange texture with a firm and bouncy feel: ((ᐛ)): It's light and delicious ♥ - Shirako (grilled with sauce) ?? yen Oh. It's rich and irresistible /// It's so delicious ♥ The sauce is relatively light, allowing you to enjoy the milky texture of the shirako ♥ - Tataki 1,000 yen It's bouncy and delicious ·͜· Stable *̩̩͙⸝⋆ - Butsugiri tataki 1,200 yen Both are delicious, but I prefer this one over the thin-sliced tataki ♥ You can enjoy the firm and bouncy texture, and the Chinese cabbage is also good (꒪⌓꒪)/// This thick cut might be my first time? ·͜· - Yubiki 500 yen The bouncy yubiki was especially delicious here (ᐙو(و♪ - Tecchiri 1 serving 2,500 yen Plenty of large butsugiri ♥ The simple ingredients are also good. The meat is delicious, of course, but the collagen around the bones is particularly rich, making it very delicious with a slippery texture ♪ (ˊᵕˋ*و(و" - Zosui 400 yen My stomach was about to burst, but I had to eat this to leave ww It's a simple dish with just eggs, green onions, and seaweed, but the broth is delicious ♥ Even the simple pickled radish and cucumber were delicious with a warm feeling. My personal Best 3 are... 1st place: Shirako grilled with sauce 2nd place: Shirako sashimi 3rd place: Tataki butsugiri I had a full course of Chinese cuisine at Morisan from 12:30 to 15:00, and came here at 17:00, so I really felt like my stomach was about to burst, and the poor access from Kitatatsumi, my home, was also a factor, but I'm glad I came here and could eat (*´˘`*)*̩̩͙⸝⋆ I want to go again (ᐙو(و♪ #Yui-chan's recommended gourmet ♥ The master seemed to be a bit spicy, but in reality, he was warm, and the staff were very nice /// Please try it out and let me know your thoughts *̩̩͙⸝⋆

I wish I had known about this restaurant sooner. We ordered a set meal for two, blowfish sashimi, fried blowfish, blowfish milt, grilled blowfish milt, mozuku seaweed, fin sake, and about three soft drinks. Despite ordering all of this, the bill came out to be in the low 13,000 yen range. It was surprisingly affordable. The taste was also excellent. The blowfish milt had a good volume and was very satisfying to eat. It was delicious as well. The restaurant quickly fills up even if there are empty seats, so I recommend making a reservation, even on the same day. This was the best blowfish restaurant in terms of cost performance that I have ever been to.

In Ikuno, when it comes to having a delicious "tecciri" dish, "Ajihei" is the place to go! It is a very famous restaurant and on this day, it was bustling with customers from the evening. The tecciri dish, along with the fried chicken, tessa, and other side dishes, were all very voluminous and tasty! The variety of side dishes available is quite surprising for a fugu restaurant, making it a safe choice even for those who cannot eat fugu. The prices are also reasonable, with the total bill staying under 10,000 yen even after eating to your heart's content. Satisfaction guaranteed!

On a certain day in January 2023, I enjoyed a delicious fugu (pufferfish) course meal at Ajihira. It was a treat, as I have only ever been to this fugu specialty restaurant and have always had a satisfying experience. Ajihira offers a variety of fugu dishes at reasonable prices, making it a great choice for fugu enthusiasts like myself. I will definitely be returning for more. #Ajihira #Kitatatsumi #Fugu cuisine #Tecchiri #Osaka gourmet

I warmed up with some delicious food at "Ajihira" in Kitatatsumi, which the taxi driver recommended to me the other day. The driver strongly recommended it to me, saying it was cheap and really delicious, so I decided to go. The food was indeed delicious, with dishes like boiled fish, sashimi, and hot pot being especially outstanding. Even though I was already full, I enjoyed the porridge at the end. This restaurant is very popular, and I was lucky to get a reservation just two weeks in advance. I definitely want to visit again.

Season: Winter! Crab ♡ Blowfish ♡ Reunion with old friends! Let's go eat blowfish♬ First, cheers with a glass of draft beer. Shots after a long time. We sat in a sunken kotatsu area and relaxed. The restaurant was fully booked with reservations, it's a popular place. There was a notice that seating is limited to 2 hours. As for the menu, everyone had reviewed the previous reviews (^.^) - Fugu hot pot 2500 yen x 3 servings - Fugu sashimi 1000 yen x 2 servings - Blowfish sashimi with ponzu sauce 1200 yen x 2 servings - Fried chicken (4 pieces) 1200 yen - Blowfish milt grilled with sauce (price unknown) x 2 servings - Rice porridge 400 yen x 1 serving - Fugu fin sake 500 yen x 3 servings We decided not to order from the whiteboard this time. The blowfish sashimi and blowfish sashimi with ponzu sauce were both delicious and had a nice texture. The blowfish hot pot was beautifully presented with vegetables like Chinese cabbage, enoki mushrooms, and chrysanthemum greens. We were going to order 4 servings but the staff advised us it might be too much, so we went with 3 servings. The fried chicken was tasty with a sprinkle of curry salt. The blowfish milt grilled with sauce was creamy and hot, very satisfying. We had a great time chatting and enjoying the blowfish. We left feeling full and the bill came to around 7,000 yen per person, including drinks at a reasonable price. We might come back here again next year (^-^)

In winter, I crave hot pot, and for me, that means blowfish. Ajidaira is a place I haven't visited in about 4-5 years, even though I used to go almost every month during winter. The restaurant is known for being affordable, serving generous portions, and being delicious. The tetchiri hot pot, priced at 2,500 yen per person, was satisfying for three people. The blowfish tempura was impressively thick and the curry salt seasoning was irresistible. The portion of blowfish milt was also substantial. I made a reservation for the end of the year, but it was fully booked, so I eagerly went at the beginning of the year. Ajidaira has expanded to multiple locations, but the one in Kitatatsumi remains my favorite. I have been a customer for over 20 years, and the blowfish there offers great value without seeming too expensive. I will definitely visit again soon. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I have been a repeat customer at Kitagishima Ajihei. I enjoyed the boiled fugu skin, blowfish sashimi, thinly sliced blowfish sashimi, blowfish hot pot, blowfish hot pot, blowfish tempura. The blowfish tempura and blowfish hot pot with fin sake were especially amazing. I had a good amount to drink and eat, and for just over 10,000 yen per person, you can enjoy such great food, it's no wonder this place is popular! It was the best dinner! Thank you for the meal!

NAKED STARS

It had been a year since I last visited Osaka. A regular customer had made a reservation for me, so I got off at Kitasakari Station on the Sen-Nichimae Line and walked to the restaurant. Outside the restaurant, I saw dried fins for sake, which got me really excited. It feels great to come to a place where there seems to be no need to go anywhere else. I ordered the hot pot, sliced blowfish sashimi, and boiled blowfish while toasting with a glass of draft beer! The draft beer tasted like a drug after resisting the urge to drink on the Shinkansen. When I saw matsutake mushrooms on the menu for 1200 yen, I just had to order them as an additional dish. And the generous portion that arrived would be lethal in Minato Ward. The sliced blowfish sashimi served as the first dish blew away my preconceptions about blowfish. The thick slices allowed the delicious taste of the blowfish to come through directly. Even when I scooped up a thin slice with my chopsticks and dipped it in ponzu sauce, it did not lose to the sauce. The meat was so thick in the hot pot that it made me question what kind of blowfish I had been eating before. And when I saw the prices on the menu, I was either surprised or about to sigh. Personally, I found it just right to eat the hot pot directly from the pot without dipping it in the sauce, or to place a piece of green onion soaked in the sauce on top. This way, the sauce was just the right thickness to fully enjoy the taste of the blowfish. I also enjoyed a killer drink called chilled fin sake that was perfect for this hot season, and reached nirvana with the flavorful porridge. I had never heard of this restaurant before, even when I was in Osaka. It is definitely worth taking the Sen-Nichimae Line to visit. I may have indulged a bit too much in blowfish and matsutake mushrooms, spending a little over 10,000 yen per person, but it was a miraculous blowfish restaurant. I will definitely visit again. Thank you for the meal, I give it a solid 4.0 points!

We wanted to eat something good as a family, so we made a reservation and visited Ajihira. We were the first to arrive at 5:00 pm. Since everyone except me was visiting for the first time, I took charge of ordering. We ordered 3 servings of boiled fugu, 4 servings of blanched fugu, 2 servings of sliced fugu, 1 serving of sliced blowfish, 2 servings of blowfish tempura, and 3 servings of draft beer. I asked if they had shirako since it's summer, but they didn't. As we enjoyed the boiled fugu, sliced fugu, sliced blowfish, and tempura with beer, the chef asked if we wanted shirako after smashing the blowfish. We immediately ordered it grilled and also ordered fin sake with it. It was amazing. We finished with a request for porridge from the kitchen. It was a fantastic day.

The best fugu restaurant in Osaka. The head chef, the female chef, the senior female chef, and all the other staff members are wonderful. The blowfish sashimi and cold fugu fin are amazing. The ponzu sauce is homemade and it never seems to run out, it's a mystery! I want to buy the ponzu sauce to take home! Everyone I've recommended this place to has become addicted. I understand why! The food is really delicious!! If you haven't been there yet, you're really missing out. You should go soon. Thank you for the meal today, thank you very much.

I went to the Ikuno area to eat blowfish at the blowfish cuisine restaurant, Ajihira. You can eat blowfish there all year round. Here are some of the dishes and prices: - Blowfish sashimi: $10 per person per plate, very chewy - Blowfish fin: $5 - Blowfish hot pot: $25 per person, shown in the picture for 2 people - Blowfish skin hot pot: $12 per person, shown in the picture for 2 people - Blowfish tempura: $12 - Blowfish milt: I tried 2 types (salted and soy sauce) Lastly, I had a porridge. I ate a lot of blowfish and even with eating heartily, it's quite reasonable at around $100.

Delicious fugu dishes are available! Make a reservation before you go. We used to have our year-end parties here every year, but due to the impact of the coronavirus, we couldn't go for a while. It was delicious as always! In addition to what's shown in the photo, the grilled shirako and fugu tempura were also delicious! There were five of us, we ordered a pot dish for three people, and then ordered various items individually. We each had about three drinks, and the total bill was around 7,000 yen per person!

When it comes to the cold winter, I visited the famous restaurant "Ajidaira" known for their delicious fugu cuisine! It's a yearly tradition for me. This time, I ordered grilled fugu milt with sauce and salt, as well as fugu for hot pot. I also tried the chopped fugu sashimi and fried fugu – the curry salt that comes with the fried fugu is amazing! To finish off, I had a comforting porridge. It was such a wonderful time!
