Fumichan Nagarekawa — Restaurant in Hiroshima

Visited for lunch on a weekday. We managed to arrive just before it started getting really busy so we didnt have to queue but we had a normal table rather than sitting around the teppanyaki, we couldve waited but I didnt really mind where we sat.

Most customers were local japanese people, and the menu was in english (we didn't ask if they had an english menu since we didn't need one).

We ordered a special okonomiyaki (soba noodles) as well as the beef tendons.

The beef tendons were super nice and went perfectly with beer. It's small in portion size, so it's great as an appetizer or side. Okonomiyaki: The special is the same as the normal but with some extra seafood. I wuite enjoyed the okonomiyaki, the sauce not as much, so i didn't need any extra and would lightly wipe off any excess with my chopsticks, but overall, I enjoyed the whole dish.

This was the first time I've had okonomiyaki in Japan, so I can't compare the taste with other okonomiyaki restaurants, but I did...

Highly recommended!

Excellent restaurant serving Hiroshima Okonomiaki. It was almost full when we arrived for lunch, but we managed to get the last table. The other tables and the chairs at the teppanyaki we full of locals - no other tourists in sight. There was rarely an empty chair for long. As soon as a person finished their meal there was another hungry person ready to take their place.

We ordered the Fumichan Special Okonomiaki with Soba noodles and the squid tentacles. The okonomiaki was delicious. The noodles were crispy and there was just the right amount of sauce. There’s extra in a bottle for the addicts. The squid tentacles were outstanding - crispy, and smokey with flavour from the teppanyaki.

Top tip: If you sit at the counter you can eat directly off the teppanyaki. Although I think this is...

First time in Hiroshima, but I had to find “real” okonomiyaki - and walked a kilometer to Fumichan based on good reviews. They were right, it’s great! Staff were very helpful, even though this feels like a local spot rather than a tourist place. I explained I’d eat anything and asked for their recommendation, and it was the basic soba okonomiyaki at ¥800. I didn’t get extras because I wanted a baseline experience, but the Fumichan Special looked great. Anyway my dish was cooked and served on the stove in front of me, and was delicious. If you’re at the counter you’ll be expected to cut the dish with one small spatula, but it works, just stick with it. Perfect with draft beer. That basic soba okono was a filling meal, but I’ll try some...
