Favorite okonomiyaki in Osaka for the cat master♪ I've been here many times at night, but it's my first time coming during the day! I used to work nearby, so I came back after a long time^ - ^ Tanomou! When I entered the restaurant confidently, a beautiful mama welcomed me. It's been about 2 years, but she's still beautiful, which is great♪ The dandy? master also came out energetically from the kitchen, looking healthy. I was worried if they had forgotten me, but they remembered that patient♪ The lunch menu offers 8 types of okonomiyaki and 7 types of yakisoba, and you can add rice, miso soup, and pickles for an additional 100 yen. I chose my favorite modern okonomiyaki here as a single item. ◆Mixed Modern (including tax) 900 yen It arrived on a square iron plate making a sizzling sound. Yes, the flower-shaped okonomiyaki is square. Since it's a modern okonomiyaki, the noodles protrude from the dough, and I love the crispy and fragrant edges. They also provided a small dish, but as a cat master's policy, I eat directly from the iron plate with a spatula without using chopsticks or the dish. Hot hot hot, but delicious. The flavor of the eggs spreads gently. Although the flower okonomiyaki doesn't use yam, it's moist and fluffy. The skilled hands control the texture through the grilling process. The sauce is also rich in flavor. Both the dough and the sauce suit my taste, and as always, it was really delicious. I once again thought that this okonomiyaki is my favorite. It was a happy lunchtime to be able to eat the okonomiyaki here from noon. Thank you for the meal!

Yesterday, I had the "sara udon set meal" at Chuo-ken near Kyobashi Station. For today's lunch, I rode my bike 1km east to cross the Gin Bridge over the Okawa River and arrived in Kyobashi. I visited "Hana," a popular okonomiyaki restaurant selected as one of the "Top 100 Okonomiyaki Restaurants in 2023" on Tabelog, after 4 and a half years. I arrived 5 minutes before the opening time of 11:30 and was the second in line to enter. I sat at the end of the L-shaped counter and ordered an Asahi draft beer for 500 yen and a Mix (pork, squid, scallop) Modern okonomiyaki for 1050 yen. I requested the beer to be served at the same time as the okonomiyaki, and 15 minutes later, the piping hot "Mix Modern" arrived on a square iron plate. The okonomiyaki, with its thick sauce, mayonnaise, bonito flakes, and seaweed powder, was neatly shaped into a square to fit the shape of the plate. I cut it into 16 pieces using a spatula and enjoyed it. The Mix, which included pork, squid, and scallops, was very luxurious, with the flavors of each ingredient complementing each other. As the beer was served midway, the infinite loop of deliciousness involved enjoying the hot okonomiyaki while sipping on the cold beer. With alcohol in my system, I slowly pushed my bike back across the Gin Bridge on my way home. Bon appétit! (●^o^●)

Visited the restaurant during a business trip to Osaka. It was my third visit. Had lunch with my subordinates. I had the Mix Modern set meal for 1050 yen (rice, miso soup, pickles) plus an additional 150 yen for extra carbs to fight off carbs with carbs, haha. The initial excitement from my first visit has faded, but the okonomiyaki is still fluffy and delicious as ever. Thank you for the meal.

I was told that the restaurant serves teppanyaki instead of okonomiyaki at night. I wasn't sure if I needed to order from both the teppanyaki and okonomiyaki menus. Unfortunately, the dishes I wanted to try from both menus were sold out. The food was delicious and I enjoyed the jazz BGM, but the service was really disappointing. I had high expectations for this highly rated restaurant, so I was a bit disappointed.

I arrived late for lunch, so the set meals were sold out, but I was able to order okonomiyaki a la carte, which was good. The batter was fluffy, maybe because it had a lot of eggs, and it was delicious. The sauce was a bit strong, so I wanted to eat it with rice, but oh well...

I was looking for a restaurant in the Kyobashi area and made a phone reservation a week ago! The early time was fully booked, so I was able to make a reservation just before 8 o'clock and a little later. I ordered the course meal (3500 yen) which required a phone reservation, and visited the restaurant. The interior of the restaurant was very clean and beautifully decorated. The course included sashimi, two side dishes, okonomiyaki, and modern-yaki. I thought it might be a bit small, but each dish had a good portion and was very delicious. I was full after eating it haha. They also had craft beer, and since it was a long-awaited gathering, I drank as I pleased, so the total amount was... However, for everyday use, the course meal plus two drinks would total around 5000 yen, which I thought was a great cost performance. I would like to visit again in the future!

However, for regular visits, I think it's a great restaurant with high cost performance as the course meal plus two drinks cost around 5000 yen. I would like to visit again in the future!

I unconsciously kept saying "delicious, delicious" while eating. Compared to other restaurants, the texture is fluffy and easy to eat, and the taste is not overpowering. You can enjoy it until the last bite. The atmosphere of the staff is also good, and I can see why everyone praises it.

It was a small restaurant with counter seats and one table. It seems to be a popular place, as it's hard to make a reservation probably due to the limited number of seats. Unlike teppanyaki restaurants where the grill is in front of you, here they cook your order and bring it to you. The recommended roast beef of beef tongue was delicious, but the portion was a bit small for the price. On the other hand, the okonomiyaki was unexpectedly large, and I wanted to try various dishes, but one was enough to fill me up.

This is an okonomiyaki restaurant located within walking distance from Kyobashi Station. They don't cook it in front of you, but prepare it on a square iron plate in the kitchen. I ordered the simplest option, pork and cabbage, as a set meal. The pork was crispy and the batter was quite gooey. At first, I was a bit surprised, but when I ate it with rice, I could taste the flavor of the batter, the sauce, and the mayo, and ended up finishing it all in one go.

The okonomiyaki is of course delicious, but the side dishes are also carefully prepared and equally tasty. The master and his wife were very polite. Although it is a rule to order side dishes along with the okonomiyaki at night, many people can't help but order them even without the rule.

I visited "Hana" for lunch, which is about a 10-minute walk from Kyobashi Station. The restaurant is not very spacious, but I was seated in a private room at the back. The private room was very hot because the air conditioning was not working properly. I hope the restaurant can take care of this issue. I had the Butatama Modern Yaki for 800 yen and the set meal for 1,500 yen. The set meal was very reasonable. There were about three types of okonomiyaki to choose from, and I chose the Modern Yaki. It was served on a mini hot plate and had a decent portion size. Since I chose the Modern Yaki, it had extra yakisoba, which was very satisfying. It's a dish that makes you want to drink beer! Thank you for the meal!

Today, I visited a high-level okonomiyaki restaurant called "Hana" located a 10-minute walk from Kyobashi Station. This place has been featured in the Michelin guide, known for its quality teppanyaki-style okonomiyaki. During lunchtime, they serve mainly okonomiyaki, but during dinner, you must order something other than okonomiyaki. Each table has no teppan grill, giving the restaurant a bistro-like atmosphere. I ordered the following dishes: - Beef tongue tataki (1680 yen): Tender beef tongue with a beautiful sear. Although small, it had a strong presence. - Hana's mapo tofu (880 yen): A visually appealing dish with miso-based mapo tofu covered in thin egg. The spiciness was toned down for me, and the eggplant and green onions were finely chopped. - Salted omelette (550 yen): A fluffy and creamy omelette without any fillings. I would love to have this for breakfast. - Butatama (800 yen): The main dish, okonomiyaki, cooked on a well-used teppan plate. It had a light bonito flavor, a fluffy egg-based batter, and finely chopped cabbage. A carefully crafted dish. I had to move on to the next place, but overall, it was a great restaurant.

Kyobashi is a restaurant with a fixed term. I made a reservation and visited. This time I tried the 3500 yen course. Octopus, shrimp, squid. It's not at the level of an okonomiyaki restaurant, it's incredibly delicious. Great texture. I got drunk at the beginning, but everything was delicious. I will revisit the place before getting drunk next time to fully enjoy the food. It was really delicious.

Overall rating: Excellent! I would definitely want to go back again!! Order: Pork Modern Okonomiyaki 800 yen, Rice and Miso Soup Set 150 yen 🌟 Insider Tip 🌟: A top 100 Okonomiyaki restaurant!! I visited during lunchtime and was seated right away without waiting!! Suddenly it got crowded! 😊 Okonomiyaki prices range from 800 yen, and with the rice set, you'll be full!! 😊 It's a great place to experience the cost-effectiveness of flour-based dishes! ❤️ Recommended for: - Those who want to try famous Okonomiyaki restaurants!! - Tourists like me♪ - For lunch in the Kyobashi area I used this place for a business lunch near Kyobashi!! It seems to be a popular spot but the service was quick, which was helpful for my work schedule. ⭐️ They offer a variety of Okonomiyaki from simple Pork Modern to Mix. The place had a few Kansai dialects being thrown around, so I think it's a place loved by locals. I heard that in Osaka, it's common to have rice as a side dish with Okonomiyaki and it was true!! Putting it on top of the rice with the rich sauce and mayonnaise was delicious!! 😊 ⭐️ I'm very satisfied with being able to enjoy combinations that are not easily found in Tokyo!!

I made a reservation for the evening session at "Hana" in Kyobashi with a friend I haven't seen in a while, but the restaurant was fully booked ( °o°) There were many people who came without a reservation, but the evening session at "Hana" is not just for okonomiyaki, but also for other dishes, so each group enjoys the specialty dishes served by the manager while enjoying drinks. I didn't know that, so I thought, "If I'm alone, can't I just wait and get in?" But it's best to make a reservation for the evening session! My friend and I ordered various specialty dishes (^O^)❒’’ Today, there were only two people, the manager and the older brother, working hard in the packed restaurant (ﾟдﾟ)! We had pork bone and Awaji Island onion with salt sauce for 680 yen, shrimp, asparagus, and broccoli stir-fried with mayonnaise for 880 yen, Hana's mapo tofu, beef tongue tataki, sand liver teppanyaki, squid and pork balls (okonomiyaki), and unfortunately, the "negiyaki" that we both wanted to eat was sold out, so we had to go with the pork modern yaki as an encore! We ate it all (ᗒᗨᗕ) And we drank a lot (^O^)❒’’(^O^)❒’’(^O^)❒’’ We talked a lot (ᗒᗨᗕ) All the dishes were delicious, with the manager's dedication evident in the ingredients, seasoning, and presentation. We also tried items not on the menu and were completely satisfied! Of course, my favorite, the "okonomiyaki" at the end, was a gentle broth with a soft texture, and it went down smoothly even after eating a lot. My friend unexpectedly ordered another modern yaki (⊙ꇴ⊙)! We may have eaten too much, but we didn't feel heavy and finished everything. We each drank 6-7 cups and it cost around 5000 yen per person (≧◡≦)♡ Thank you for the feast!

I entered the restaurant as soon as it opened. When I heard "counter" at the okonomiyaki restaurant, I thought it would be in front of the teppan grill, but instead, the mother brought freshly cooked okonomiyaki on a mini teppan grill to the table. The square okonomiyaki seemed to be made with yamaimo (yam) batter, and it was fluffy and delicious. It was so light that I finished it quickly. Inside the restaurant, I could see that the owner must like art, which added to the nice atmosphere of the place. It's a great restaurant.

Having a daytime drinking session with the old guys in Kyobashi. We started at a standing bar, then decided to visit "Hana" without a reservation. The counter was almost full, but they seated us at a table in the back. Since there were three of us, we ordered three different types of okonomiyaki to share. I had heard that their okonomiyaki was square, but it was actually round due to the shape of the hot plate (laughs). We toasted with draft beer and also tried some craft beer. The okonomiyaki lived up to its reputation and we were very satisfied. The master seemed a bit unfriendly at first, but he's truly a skilled craftsman, working diligently without wasting words. We stayed until the end of lunchtime without being rushed, and were sent off with a smile from the mistress.

Mixed Modern 1050 yen set meal + 150 yen on weekdays for lunch, I had some business around Kyobashi Station and decided to have lunch there. I love flour-based dishes! I often make them at home too. I realized that I don't often have the chance to eat okonomiyaki outside, so I decided to visit this well-known restaurant. I entered as soon as they opened. I ordered the Mixed Modern set meal, which seemed very Osaka-like. The outside was crispy, the inside was fluffy, and the cabbage was moist. Maybe they used a lot of eggs? It was very delicious.

First time at "Hana" in Kyobashi, where lunch reviews are plentiful, but the a la carte dishes also look delicious, so I decided to go for dinner. The atmosphere is stylish with pencil drawings on the walls and jazz music playing, making you want to order craft beer. You can choose from about 20 different craft beers, with 2 options available each day. I was impressed by the attention to detail, as even the server pours the beer for you. Looking at the menu, I carefully selected 3 items: - Beef tongue tataki for 1,680 yen - Stir-fried shrimp, asparagus, and broccoli with mayonnaise for 880 yen - Butatama (okonomiyaki) for 800 yen The menu also includes enticing dishes like "eel omelette for 800 yen" and "pork bone and Awaji Island onion with salt sauce for 680 yen". The beef tongue tataki was a standout, with a glossy cross-section and delicious when dipped in green onion ponzu sauce. This dish is meant to be savored slowly while chatting with someone, not just quickly eaten by yourself. The shrimp dish exceeded my expectations, with a stylish herb-infused flavor that was all about highlighting the ingredients. It's not just a famous okonomiyaki spot, but already a top-notch izakaya at this point. The butatama was served piping hot until the very end on a personal-sized iron plate. It's not exactly "fluffy" like a souffle, but more of a "melty" texture. The vegetables are finely chopped and mixed into a sweet batter, creating a soft and satisfying piece. The sauce is on the sweeter side but doesn't overpower, allowing the vegetable flavors to shine through. There was a hint of a unique taste in some bites (like when you bite into raw broccoli or carrot), but overall, it was gentle on the stomach. I was completely captivated by the a la carte dishes and can't wait to bring friends to try more!

Personally, my favorite okonomiyaki in Osaka is Hanasama! I recommend it to all my friends. This time, I tried their modern-yaki for the first time! It was so filling and only 1,000 yen! Such a good deal! It was incredibly delicious as always. I wonder why it's so tender and tasty. Thank you for the meal! ❤️

I used it for lunch. The square-shaped okonomiyaki was baked on a thick iron plate and stayed hot until the end. The fluffy dough was light and easy to finish despite the amount. It was very delicious. The price was also very reasonable, and I would like to go again.
