How can I reserve restaurants in Osaka?

To make a reservation at most restaurants in Osaka, you can call them directly, but language barriers may pose a challenge. To simplify the process, consider using an online service like byFood, which helps foreigners secure reservations. ByFood allows you to filter restaurants by cuisine, location, and dietary needs. Simply enter your reservation details on the restaurant's page, and byFood will handle the booking for you. You’ll receive a confirmation email once your reservation is approved, or a notification if it’s not.

Is a reservation required at all Osaka restaurants?

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. However, popular or high-end restaurants typically do require advance reservations, and we highly recommend making one.

How much is an average meal in Osaka?

In Osaka, many restaurants offer affordable meals for around ¥1,000. High-end dining typically starts at around ¥5,000, while all-you-can-eat restaurants begin at approximately ¥3,000 per person.

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.
