Truly wonderful experience. Very chill vibe, which was a welcome reprieve from the uptight ambience of many Michelin-starred places (let alone one with 3 stars). Kitchen and front of house (many of whom are family) were so nice. Food was immaculate, with lovely, subtle flavors. The C wine pairing (3 sake + 2 wine; no champagne, didn’t seem necessary) was perfect, and the spare rib was the best I’d ever had (we’d been recommended the rib, otherwise would’ve gone for eel or one of the fish). Easily accommodated my gluten allergy, and I ate nearly everything that my husband (blessed with a normal stomach) had. At the end, the chef met us at the door to say goodbye. Cannot recommend Taian enough.

This was one of the best experiences we had in Japan. Faultless service, delicious food and amazing sake. They had live crickets in a cage to create ambience! They don’t get many tourists in to eat but the staff were amazing and tried really hard to translate things into English for us as our Japanese is embarrassingly bad. Wonderful to watch the team working so seamlessly together. Amazing memories made!

Reservations at restaurants in Osaka are not always necessary, depending on the establishment. Most mid-range restaurants do not require reservations unless you have a large party.

Reserve Restaurants in Osaka

In the famous foodie capital of Japan, you will be able to find outstanding Osaka restaurants in every corner of the city. Osaka's excitable energy is fueled by its thriving food culture and restaurants in every district. The city center of Namba’s okonomiyaki restaurants sizzle away all day, filled with happy diners laughing out late into the night. Dotonbori bustles almost 24 hours a day, alive with its street food stalls (takoyaki octopus balls grilling away) while "tabehoudai" all-you-can-eat restaurants call out for diners to take on the challenge.

Feeling really adventurous? You can find fugu restaurants in Osaka serving up pufferfish. The Shinsekai district's neon lights highlight the golden crusts of deep-fried skewers at its local kushikatsu restaurants. If you want a break from morish Kansai cuisine, find fresh sushi sliced and served at sushi trains and specialty high-end sushi restaurants in Osaka — yes, even omakase. And, if you're hunting for premium beef, find a table at one of Osaka's best wagyu restaurants.
