Overview

Sample Menu

Main

Karaage

Ginger-soy marinated chicken with a crunch so loud the neighbors will complain. Juicy, addictive, and perfect with a beer.

Main

Sushi

The icon. Fresh seafood over perfectly seasoned rice. One bite and you’ll realize what you’ve been missing back home.

Main

Tempura

Not your average fry-up. A delicate, golden starch batter that’s light, crisp, and lets the fresh ingredients shine.

Main

Kitsune Udon

Osaka soul food. Thick noodles and sweet fried tofu in a savory broth.

Main

Kushikatsu

Osaka’s famous deep-fried skewers. Crispy panko, savory sauce, and a strict “no double dipping” rule.

Main

Takoyaki

The heart & soul of Osaka street food. Savoury octopus balls, gooey inside with a crisp shell, topped with bbq and yummy mayo.

Authentic experience with local

We loved our experience with Shoko. She was personable and passionate about food. She also grew up in Osaka, so her knowledge is quite fast. Our 3 hours went by very fast. We would highly recommend this tour and guide.
