Find out what Bar restaurants to try in Osaka. Home to nearly nine million and powering an economy that exceeds both Hong Kong's and Thailand's, Osaka packs quite a punch. The confident, stylish city is a shopping hub, with fabulous restaurants and nightlife. It's an ideal base for exploring the Kansai region; Kyoto's World Heritage Sites, Nara's temple and Koya-san's eerie graves are within 90 minutes by train. Top city attractions include the aquarium, Osaka Castle, Universal Studios Japan and the futuristic Floating Garden Observatory.

Nicolas was the greatest bartender my partner and I have ever had the pleasure to meet A fantastic place to have some drinks and a great belt out of a song. Perfect for English speakers to get out and feel free to communicate with other English speakers and Japanese people looking to talk in English to foreigners.

Nice HRC location. The cafe is on the larger side for Japan. Service was, of course, friendly. We liked that the stage is central to the cafe. It seems that live music is frequent here (unlike other cafes that we have been to). Standard menu. English speaking staff.Thank you greatwalk for spending time with us on this Holiday season. Thank you for a nice comment towards us and we hope to have you back in the city again. Thank you.

Getting into an elevator and going to a 4th for bar can be a hit-or-miss experience. Not here. This bar is Excellent with a capital E (for Elvis).Kappa-san, the owner, tells me he started the bar 7 years ago, but he must have started collecting Elvis memorabilia at birth. In addition to being the owner of the best sideburns since The King himself, he has figurines, sunglasses, an old-school jukebox, an Elvis themed pinball machine and posters covering every inch of wall. But this isn't just a curiosity bar - is great fun, serves good bar bites and excellent drinks. Kappa-san seems to have a bottle of every type and vintage of Jack Daniels ever made, and a whole range of other drinks for those not keen on whisky. An absolute must in Osaka!

Reviewed By BrianTaylor9

If you staying in the hotel then this is a ok place to come for a quiet one after or before dinner but it is not a place I would make a visit to if I was not staying here. They have a jazz piano player and the drinks are good. They have a promo where you can pay a certain amount and have unlimited drinks. They also have salary man lunch specials.

Home made burger

Reviewed By Duncan707

Small joint tucked away amongst 10000 food places in Osaka. Service with a smile, short wait time - but the wait is worth it while your burger is freshly cooked and chips freshly fried. The pattie was great, sauce and salads equally and the toasted bun topped it off! I would happily have these burgers again and again.

Pizza Bar Fullhouse

Reviewed By feitclub

Local friends encouraged me to try the pizza at Full House. The menu is varied: standard toppings like Pepperoni as here, but I opted for a little odder: salmon tartar. It was amazing! I found one pizza to be sufficient for dinner, but heartier eaters might want more. Kids could probably share a pie. There are not many seats available, but taking the pizza to go is also an option.

Visited this quirky little bar for some Mexican after the menu offered vegetarian / vegan options to suit my fussy daughter. But wow - everything was fresh, delicious and very reasonably priced. The menu is limited but we tried nearly every item and they were all fabulous! Plus a groovy bar atmosphere / hole in the wall and friendly staff. Don’t miss this one - its awesome!!!!!

Delicious made from scratch home style western comfort food, with the true taste of home. We recognise the love the world has for Japanese food but also realise the need to take a break from it and taste some good ole fashioned food we are use too. vegeta

The food is fantastic, great flavors and good sized portions. Very friendly owners and staff. We ordered a small pizza (half & half), and the Meat Chilli Con Carne, between the two of us we couldn't finish it all. Highly Recommended.
