Beautiful restaurant, sitting on mats and cooking your own okonomiyaki. The service was helpful. The okonomiyaki was delicious as well as the plum wine and soda.
Authentic okonomiyaki place. Traditional taste, not many variation on the menu. Good price. Has English menu and the staff is friendly. You can either cook it yourself or ask the staff for assistant. Nice local experience if you pass by this neighborhood.
Amazing experience! Delicious Okonomiyaki Really old japanese restaurant.easy to accommodate large group. Special feeling in they original table.
I was so excited to try okonomiyaki in Japan and this place did not disappoint! We went about an hour before they close in the afternoon and had a little bit of a wait. It's a very traditional space, so shoes off and sit on the floor. You order your dish and they bring you the batter so you can cook it yourself - the table is a stove. They did provide written instructions in English and it's pretty easy, and delicious! They have signs up asking that you don't take photos, which is a bummer but understandable. This was a fun and delicious meal!
