旬彩dining sushiなかの — Restaurant in Kishiwada

Wow, what an amazing find!!! I don't write reviews but this needed to be said. Came here with my GF while staying in Osaka for the last part of our trip to Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, Hakone, Koyasan). We are sushi fanatics. And this, Sweet baby Jesus, was hands-down the best sushi we had all trip!! It blew us away with flavor and freshness, and nice chunky pieces of nigiri.

Location: An easy walk from the train station. Just use your google map. After looking for some sushi my searches brought me here, in a tiny little alleyway offshoot from a long covered market hall of stores.

The Experience: Right away you are greeted by a lovely hostess (whom speaks very good English). We sat at the bar and we're greeted by the super talented master chef "Kats" (after getting his name wrong and several attempts later, he gave me the short version; forgive me chef). Next, we were greeted by the super friendly and very kind apprentice chef Takka. He wrote the whole menu in English in hopes of encountering English speakers. We were the first Americans apparently which goes to show how amazingly local this place is. Chef Takka took great care of us with amazing attention, and the whole staff made us feel like we were regulars.

The Food: Just... Wow. We were speechless for most of the meal. With grunts and blissful smiles with our eyes closed. Incredible! We had a fixed house combination plate of nigiri to start. After trying a few of their select pieces we went "H.A.M." on some of our favorites. One after another blew us away! The Uni is incredible, the scallop is prepared with a slight sear on top, the salmon is soooo fresh and delicious, the anago is an out of body experience, while the ikura (salmon roe) is briny yet subtly sweet on the palate. The depth of flavors we tasted from these beautifully cut pieces of fresh fish was incomparable to anything we had in the US. We also tried the beautifully prepared flaky tempura. So delicate and delicious! Chef Kats's knife skills is impressive to say the least.

Overall, we want to fly out of Osaka again just for this amazing experience with master chef Kats and chef Takka. Well done gents. Thank you the closing cherry on top to an amazing trip to Japan. We will...

Friendly staff and fantastic food. We were lucky enough to stumble upon this restaurant when staying for just one night in Kishiwada. We wanted sushi for the last night of our holiday in Japan and we noticed a sign in the window advertising the fact that they offered a menu in English. It is obviously a very popular restaurant as it was very busy when we arrived, but after a short wait, we were given a table. The staff were very helpful and the food was delicious! The sushi was very fresh and well presented. We had a lovely chat with one of the chefs and we left the restaurant feeling very happy with our final meal in Japan. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are...

前菜は、たらの白子ポン酢。 美味しくないわけがないし、白子好きとしては最高のスタート❤️❤️❤️

お造りは、どれも新鮮でめちゃくちゃ美味しかったです😍 お友達が事前にお誕生日のお祝いって伝えてくれていたみたいで、かわいく盛り付けられて出てきました😘 嬉しすぎる🥰

焼き物は金目の塩焼き☺️ 煮つけはよく食べるけど塩焼きは何気に初かも✨️ 柔らかくてちょうど良い塩加減が最高でした😍

天ぷらは海老・穴子・銀杏とむかご。 普通の天ぷら屋さんで食べるよりおいしいねっていいながら食べた🤣

小鍋はまさかのふぐ鍋🐡 子供のころからお父さんがてっちりばかり食べていたからか、その影響でふぐが大好き🫶🏻❤️ ひとり鍋は自分のタイミングで食べられるし嬉しい気配り！

ステーキはハネシタでした🐮 脂の甘みが上品でとろけました🤤 めちゃくちゃ美味しかった…

お寿司は、ホタテ・伝助あなご・まぐろの三貫🍣 どのネタも美味しいし、サイズも大きいし、最高の〆

そしてお寿司と一緒に出される茶碗蒸しの具沢山具合にびっくりした🥺！ 海老・ゆり根・銀杏・鶏肉・かまぼこ・白身魚・ほたて貝・みつば・ゆず ってメニューに書いてて、まさか全部は入ってないやろってなぜか疑って食べたら全部入ってた🤣 茶碗蒸し絶品でした✨️

デザートは紫芋のアイスで幸せ感じました😍
