新時代 大阪堂島店 — Restaurant in Osaka

The Den Gushi skewers are everything they promise—absolutely delicious and completely addictive! The flavors are perfectly balanced, making it impossible to stop at just 10.

Overall, a fantastic experience! Can’t wait to come back for...

A popular izakaya chain store within 2 blocks from Umeda station. The place is fairly tranquil when I went there on a Sunday afternoon. When I ate there I had only 30 minutes, so I quickly ordered a chicken skin pyramid and mega drinks. They had the thing fairly on time so I was impressed, but when I was eating a small cockroach visited me. I get it; the place is fairly dark but when cockroaches can roam freely, who knows what else might be hiding...
