Ajinoya Honten - Osaka

Can I just take a moment silence to express my gratitude for the beautiful dish that is okonomiyaki. This place was such a gem, and I highly recommend you get their specials. Watching the cook make our food and everyone else’s at the same time was incredible! I will be dreaming about this dish until the next time I’m back in Osaka!

Ate the okonomiyaki and yakisoba and they were so good! We went at off peak around 4pm, so the queue was relatively short and waited around 30 mins. It’s no wonder that they won awards

Very tasty okonomiyaki in a central location. Restaurant is not big and thus you usually have to wait for a table outside for a while, keep that in mind if planning a visit. Another point that is important to know is that as the food is cooked in front of you on the table and the place is rather small your clothes will be affected by the smoke and take on some smell, so maybe avoid wearing clothes that you expect to wear at another occasion before washing. Service is quick and attentive!

My favourite okonomiyaki in Japan I tried a bunch and still went back here to eat on separate trips. Restaurant can have long queue times and during busy periods there’s a chance your order might be wrong check your ingredients and let the chef know if so

I had Ajinoya mix with soba topping. It was delicious. But had to wait for 30 mins, and had to wait about 20 mins even after seating on a table. You can’t add both food and drink as soon as you are seated. They accepts cash only. Therefore, you should bring enough cash with you.
