I ordered the Osaka set meal (with rice) and was lucky to be seated by the window on a pleasant day. It was a busy lunchtime but the staff were friendly and I was able to enjoy a delicious meal. Thank you very much! (^^)

After enjoying the night view at the Sky Observatory, we went to this restaurant. It was a relief that the last order was at 10 pm. Ordering a drink is a must. The okonomiyaki that came out was a bit unattractive. The taste was average. It was crowded with young people, making it difficult to have a conversation with my friend across the table.

I was able to easily enter this restaurant where other shops in the area had long lines. I thought it was a okonomiyaki restaurant, but it turned out to be an izakaya with a variety of Osaka and Korean dishes. Mobile ordering was convenient!

I went to Tamachan at Scusc in Shibuya for a quick bite. It was quite hot, so I ordered the cold noodles. They served the kimchi in a separate dish, but I mixed it in with the noodles. The taste was okay, but it helped me stay cool.

First visit to Tamachan at Scramble Square! Visited a little after 2pm on Saturday and there were about 3 groups waiting in line. Inside, I saw many foreigners! Is it in a guidebook or something? I wanted to try various menu items, but they only serve lunch menu until 5pm. Ordered the okonomiyaki and yakisoba set! Being in Scramble Square and with high prices, the cost performance is not great. Also, the service was extremely slow. I used to like Tamachan in Nakameguro... 😢

The pork loin comes with 4 slices. The flavor was just right. The thin tamagoyaki underneath seemed to be meant to be eaten together. It was a bit disappointing that there were no condiments on the table. The rice portion was a bit small, but they offer free refills. The operation was a bit slow for lunchtime with only 2 staff in the dining area and 3 in the kitchen, so the grilled items might take longer. The location on the 13th floor of Shibuya Scramble Square was great!

First visit, looking for a place nearby to grab a light snack before meeting up. Chose this place and found it very convenient. It's lively and bustling. Ordered the diced tomatoes as a starter, nice and refreshing while waiting for the okonomiyaki. Tried the beef tendon omelette as a side dish, just to sample something different. Finally, had the deluxe tamachan-yaki with mayo on the side, but it was so good that I didn't mind it being drizzled on top. It was satisfying and delicious, a perfect choice for filling up on okonomiyaki.

I didn't think too deeply and ordered a draft beer and the whole Osaka set (half okonomiyaki, half yakisoba) without much thought. Since it's an okonomiyaki restaurant, I chose okonomiyaki, but it also serves Korean cuisine, and I later noticed a limited quantity bossam set on the menu that caught my eye. There were also many tempting items on the evening menu. While looking at the menu and considering various options, the whole Osaka set arrived. It took a bit of time, but it looked delicious. I ordered a draft beer, so I skipped the rice, but normally it comes with rice. The yakisoba had a rich flavor, so it went well with both beer and rice. The sauce yakisoba was indeed delicious. The okonomiyaki was soft and fluffy, maybe because it had a lot of yam, and it was really tasty. There were a few empty seats right after the restaurant opened, but it was full by the time we finished eating.

After a long time, I went to have lunch in Shibuya. I had a lot of restaurants I wanted to go to, but unexpectedly, I had no plan. Plus, I had my child with me, so I had to prioritize the child. We did some shopping at Scramble Square and then headed to the restaurant my child wanted to go to before it got crowded. However, there was already a long line. It was surprisingly popular. We checked out other restaurants and found one with a bit of a wait, but we decided to go in because it was relatively empty. The walls were decorated with fun pictures, and the atmosphere was nice. The staff was also very polite. The lunch menu was a bit limited, but my husband was pleased to find his favorite ginger pork. My child wanted okonomiyaki, so we ordered the Osaka Set (half okonomiyaki, half yakisoba). And during lunchtime, rice was complimentary. I ordered an extra serving of rice for my child. The set looked like it had a large portion, so I planned to share it with my child who has a small appetite. Although we weren't told that each person should order one set, I also ordered a ramune for my child during lunchtime. Of course, we also ordered draft beer... The ginger pork turned out to be made with pork loin, which was quite thick and tasty. There was also plenty of scrambled eggs under the ginger pork. My child, who loves eggs, happily put them on the rice and ate them. The Osaka Set had a rich flavor, but it wasn't too strong, which was good. The okonomiyaki had a generous portion and was fluffy and delicious. The yakisoba had a chewy texture with thick noodles and was tasty. Despite the generous portion and reasonable price (for lunch), and the polite staff, the restaurant wasn't too crowded, which was surprisingly nice (maybe it was just that day). It was delicious. Thank you for the meal. Draft beer x2 660 yen (tax included) Ramune 440 yen (tax included) Osaka Set (half okonomiyaki, half yakisoba) 1200 yen (tax included) Ginger Pork Lunch 1000 yen (tax included) Total 3960 yen (tax included)

Whole Osaka Set (Half Okonomiyaki, Half Yakisoba) for 1,200 yen at Okonomi Tamachan in Shibuya Scramble Square. Exploring gourmet options in my new workplace in Shibuya, today I indulged in a taste of Osaka at Okonomi Tamachan. First up, the classic "Whole Osaka Set." Even though I haven't been able to visit Osaka recently, the savory sauce yakisoba and the generously topped okonomiyaki with sauce and mayo really hit the spot!

On a weekday before 6:00 PM, I found the curtain of "Okonomi Tamachan" on the 13th floor of Shibuya Scramble Square and decided to enter after a long time. "Okonomi Tamachan" is a popular okonomiyaki restaurant in Osaka's Horie area. It is a rare restaurant in Tokyo where you can enjoy authentic Osaka-style okonomiyaki. There are only two seats with a good view by the window, which are reserved seats. However, since it was early, there was only one reservation before us, so we were quickly guided to a table near the window. When I visited after a long time, I found that the ordering method had changed. You can scan the QR code with your smartphone camera, open the scanned URL to view the menu. You can choose the items and quantities you want to order from the alcohol, soft drinks, and a la carte menu (with photos), and when you send it, the order will arrive at your table. I thought it was a good system that prevents order mistakes and minimizes contact during the COVID-19 pandemic. I couldn't help but think about the disadvantages such as not being able to enter without a mobile phone or people who are not good at operating mobile phones, but in a place like Shibuya, the center of the young city, such worries may be unnecessary. Today, the menu we shared with my friend included: ★ 2-color ponzu pork shabu-shabu bean sprouts 720 yen - A refreshing ponzu flavor. ★ Tonpei-yaki 830 yen - The sauce is sweet and delicious. ★ Delicious! Oil kasu salt yakisoba 1,410 yen - The ingredients include oil kasu, pork, and fried egg. ★ Bossam & Samgyeopsal (special steamed pork) 440 yen - Wrap the vegetables, dip in the sauce, and enjoy. The deliciousness at this price is highly recommended. Also, one drink is always ordered. Oolong tea 440 yen x 2 After the meal, we ordered vanilla ice cream and matcha ice cream from today's ice cream 440 yen x 2 Total 5,160 yen ÷ 2 = 2,580 yen (per person today) "Gochamaze aesthetics" as touted by Tamachan, despite being an okonomiyaki restaurant, there are various Korean dishes on the menu, making it a diverse menu. Every menu item is well thought out. Even for someone like me who grew up in Tokyo, I am impressed by the deliciousness of the Tonpei-yaki here, so people from Osaka might feel even more nostalgic and visit. Perhaps due to mobile ordering, the orders come out quickly without waiting, and the staff, the older brothers, are relaxed and friendly. In about 30 minutes, more and more customers arrived. It quickly became full. I had a delicious meal today as well. Thank you for the meal.

The stores in Shibuya Scramble Square are all crowded. I didn't want to wait for lunch, so I was lucky to find a spot. The whole Osaka lunch set is hearty! You can enjoy both okonomiyaki and yakisoba in a double serving. The sizes are both half portions. It was delicious enough. Rice is also available, but I decided to skip it. Eating an Osaka lunch in Shibuya, Tokyo is a nice experience. However, this set makes you want to have a drink with it.

I happened to visit here because everywhere else was crowded recently. It is located on the 13th floor of Shibuya Scramble Square. I was able to overlook Shibuya from the window side seat. I visited around 4 pm on Saturday, and the restaurant was about 30% full. This restaurant originated in Osaka and offers okonomiyaki, but the lunch menu had a lot of Korean dishes. I ordered the *Luxury Bibimbap Bowl Set with Mini Bossam for 1400 yen. Mini Bossam is a Korean dish where pork is boiled with spices and thinly sliced. The Bossam was incredibly tender and delicious. The Bibimbap had a variety of ingredients and was healthy and tasty. Thank you for the meal.

Shibuya Scramble Square's coupon day has arrived, and the building is busier than usual with 100 yen, 1,000 yen, and 10,000 yen discount coupons being issued. After finally finishing shopping, it's time for dinner. The restaurants in Shibuya Scramble Square are quite crowded. After waiting in line, I entered "Okonomi Tamachan" on the 13th floor. It's a lively and nice atmosphere. I ordered the following dishes: Special Modern Yakisoba, Famous Teppanyaki Hormone, Bossam & Samgyeopsal, Beef Tendon Omelette, Tomato Cheese, Pork Shabu Shabu with Bean Sprout Ponzu, Diced Cucumber, Hoppy Set, and Yamazaki Barrel Plum Wine Blend with Soda. The smell of the sauce in the restaurant stimulates the appetite. First, I enjoyed the Famous Teppanyaki Hormone and Pork Shabu Shabu with Bean Sprout Ponzu with Hoppy. They go together perfectly. The alcohol goes down smoothly, and I quickly ordered another Hoppy. Also, I highly recommend the Bossam & Samgyeopsal, which is only 440 yen per serving! If you like cheese, the Tomato Cheese is perfect. The slightly burnt cheese is irresistible. And of course, I ended the meal with the Special Modern Yakisoba. It's quite hearty and satisfying, so I highly recommend it. Thank you for the delicious meal.

I visited a restaurant next to Kariyaduki where you can easily go alone last weekend, and I was curious about the impact, so I visited for lunch today. I thought it was an okonomiyaki restaurant from the name, but there was no "ya" at the end of the name. There were more Korean dishes, but I misunderstood and ordered the okonomiyaki set. The okonomiyaki was fluffy and delicious, but the yakisoba had a rich and chewy noodle that exceeded my expectations. I don't usually eat yakisoba outside of festivals, so maybe I should consider yakisoba as an option for eating out from now on.

I visited "Okonomi Tamachan Shibuya Scramble Square Store," a restaurant specializing in Osaka cuisine, on a certain day in February 2022, just after 11 am. Located on the 13th floor of Shibuya Scramble Square right after exiting Shibuya Station, the spacious restaurant had only one customer when I arrived. I sat at a spacious table for one and ordered the "Whole Osaka Set" for lunch, which includes a half-sized okonomiyaki and yakisoba for ¥1,200. It took about 15 minutes for the food to be served. It might be better to avoid ordering during busy lunch hours as the wait was quite long. The okonomiyaki, generously topped with sauce and mayonnaise, was fluffy and well-cooked, allowing the sweetness of the cabbage to shine through. While the dish lacked noticeable meat or seafood, it was still well-executed as an okonomiyaki and paired nicely with the rice. The yakisoba, garnished with chopped green onions, had a balanced sauce flavor and a good texture with squid, cabbage, and bean sprouts. The three side dishes also complemented the rice well and were very delicious. Enjoying them with the wakame soup gave a taste of a typical Osaka teppanyaki lunch. While I felt that the prices were slightly high for "Tamachan," given its location in Scramble Square, the spacious dining area was a plus. Overall, I found satisfaction in the meal of flour-based dishes, but adding pickled ginger to the yakisoba could enhance its B-class appeal.

Okonomiyaki restaurant located inside Shibuya's Scramble Square. Visited for lunch. The main store is in Aoyama. There used to be one in Naka-Meguro as well, I think? Currently, they seem to only offer set meals. I chose the special Pulgogi set by Tamachan. You can add 200 yen for 1.5 times the meat, but I went with the regular size. The set includes rice, soup, and a side dish. The portion size is quite good, but there are bean sprouts and onions at the bottom, so maybe opting for extra meat would have been better.

I visited Okonomi Tamachan Shibuya Scramble Square for lunch on a regular day. The location is on the 13th floor of Shibuya Scramble Square. Despite heavy rain, the direct access from the station made it easy to visit without going outside. The interior is decorated with graffiti art on the walls, giving a strong Osaka vibe. Okonomi Tamachan started in 2008 in a small 7-tsubo shop in Horie, Osaka. During lunchtime, only lunch menu items are available. I ordered the Osaka Whole Set (with free rice addition) for 1,200 yen. It was served in 12 minutes, consisting of yakisoba, okonomiyaki, rice, 3 small side dishes, and soup. The yakisoba was served a few minutes later, with ingredients like cabbage, bean sprouts, green onions, pork, and squid. The sauce was on the sweeter side. The okonomiyaki was moist and had a mix of ingredients similar to monjayaki. When I left, about 80% of the customers were still there, likely due to the weather. Since Shibuya Scramble Square has mostly Western-style restaurants, it seems like a good place to go for a lively drinking atmosphere.

Enjoying the view from Shibuya SKY, I headed to Scramble Square. It was hot, but the view of the Scramble Crossing from above was so refreshing. It was a bit late for lunch, around 1:30 pm. I decided to go up to the 13th floor to have a meal. It was a Saturday, so the popular restaurants had long lines despite the time. I didn't feel like waiting in line, so I went to "Okonomi Tamachan" which was less crowded. I ordered the Hormone Yakidon. The restaurant had a lively atmosphere with hand-drawn decorations on the walls. When my order arrived, my first impression was that there was not much meat on it. The taste was not bad, but it wasn't exceptionally delicious either. It was just average. I only stopped by because it was in the building, but if it was a street-side restaurant, I probably wouldn't go out of my way to visit.

The popular Shibuya Scramble Square offers a great view of Shibuya while dining at any restaurant. I had the "Whole Osaka Set" for ¥1200, which included a fluffy and soft okonomiyaki with plenty of sauce, a rich okonomiyaki with a firm flat noodle yakisoba. The yakisoba had a refreshing taste compared to the okonomiyaki. Both dishes were just average, not my type. My colleague had the ginger pork, which had thick slices of pork with crunchy onions and a tempting aroma.

Had lunch at Sucsuc. Ordered the Hormone Donburi for 1000 yen. The amount of hormone was quite small, but it was delicious. It felt like I was mostly eating rice and eggs. Well, I guess it's expected since it's a restaurant in Sucsuc. I probably won't visit again. Maybe I'll try the Din Tai Fung next door.
