A super quirky place!! The decor is really cool! At first, it took us a while to understand the system, but then it was great! My little one is celiac and was able to eat without any problems because they understand cross-contamination! Something that doesn't happen very often around here. I also got a vegan okonimiyaki, which was delicious. They come in two sizes: M and L. Despite ordering M, we couldn't finish them, but they're prepared. There are trays where you can get as many containers as you need, and a bag to carry it in. The experience was very pleasant.
The most fun restaurant I have ever visited! It's basically a one-man band, with the owner doing pretty much everything: cooking, serving, cleaning and dealing with customers. The restaurant is a minimalist's nightmare, but it actually has its charm, with a lot of handmade decorations and jokes all over.
The food was pretty tasty, with a fair variety of okonomiyaki, and there were plenty of gluten-free options, so it's good for celiacs.
Prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food, and the experience.
I'll definitely visit again when I'm in town.
All of the carefully prepared dishes were delicious!
The gluten-free pasta was well-flavored, the dashi soy sauce had a mild taste, and the salmon pasta had a nice yuzu flavor.
The soy milk amazake soft serve ice cream was mellow and not at all heavy, and went really well with the strong espresso.
I always come here when I come to Osaka.
I don't know how many times I've been there.
It's easy for even an old man to enter by himself. The atmosphere is calm and comfortable.
The location is in the middle of nowhere, but it's worth coming just for this shop.
I tried almost everything on the menu, but on this day I ordered the power bowl and soup set for 1,580 yen. It's a little pricey, but it really fills you up. It's loaded with vegetables and almost gluten-free.
After eating, I noticed the seasonal menu posted on the wall. Brown rice risotto set! I should have done this! !
I will go again.
We tried the "Have a Good Day Plate", along with the avocado toast with gluten free bread. French toast, and Petit Gateau, also gluten free and dairy free. The presentation was beautiful, and the flavors were well-balanced. However, the Petit Gateau could have been slightly less baked to achieve that perfect melted chocolate center. Overall, a great spot for a delicious and visually appealing breakfast in Osaka with a lovely view.
