PANAME Crêpes de Paris ＆ Café Bar (Osaka) — Restaurant in Osaka

A small Crepe place with AMAZING FLAVOR and AMAZING STAFF!

Firstly, I was greeted immediately upon entry, and was able to sit down. They do offer a Take-Away option, but I elected to sit.

They have two different menus, one was for drinks, and the other was for crepes. Because it was 10am, I didnt want to start drinking yet, so I chose the crepe menu.

I luckily can read, but I didnt have to guess with this menu, the pictures were right there and I immediately wanted 10 different crepes before I got to the 4th page. The Crepes menu was separated by savory and sweet. I purchased the "Salmon Royale" and the "La Special".

Salmon Royale: As described in its name, had Smoked Salmon that was heavenly tasting, with mushrooms and cheese! It was fresh and all tucked in perfectly in their perfect crepe. Ive eaten quiet a bit of crepes in the states, but they are always flat and thin. hence why I ordered 2. This crepe was thin enough to identify as a crepe but fluffy and soft like a light pancake wanted to be a crepe for the day. It was perfectly seasoned and was such an experience eating it. I did add a sauce to this that I will explain later. I wouldve been satisfied after the first crepe, but I had to move on to the second crepe. I did infact do a happy dance while eating this.

La Special: it is a breakfast crepe that had chorizo, onion, egg and cheese. I had at this point already had the most wonderful crepe before this one, and couldnt figure out if I would enjoy this one more than the first. But! on initial contact with the crepe, I smelled the breakfast aroma, and was so excited to unwrap the perfection that this place calls La Special. I added their special homemade sauce to the soft crepe and dug in! I immediately tasted the perfectly cooked crepe and had been perfectly seasoned. The Chorizo taste was perfect, and I was able to eat all of it smoothly without feeling that one thing overwhelmed another. The sauteed onions were a perfect crunch that brought more texture to this masterpiece.

THE SAUCE!: They called it "The Samurai Sauce" I wouldve called it "Perfection". When I saw it in the menu, it was a little red/orange sauce that was free, and I like adventures so I asked the waiter if I may try it. She brought it out and said, its spicey, please be careful. So like anyone who is told that something is spicy, I smelled it. I immediately knew I could take the challenge. So I pinky dipped it, and immediately was in love. If my pinky wasnt attached to my hand, I wouldve eaten it. It was to me like an "italian vodka sauce" that was creamier, and had so much flavor, it had some kick to it but it wasnt overwhelming or overbearing. I wanted to spread it on toast and eat it. I loved it so much, that after my first crepe, I needed more! I HIGHLY SUGGEST THIS SAUCE. but I am pretty good with spice, so if you can do a jalapeno, then you should be fine. I cant for the life of me remember what the pepper they used for it, but it was amazing and I loved it!

Now, in conclusion; After both crepes, which were larger than expected, and can safely say that it was the best crepe Ive had ever. This place will be my GO TO place for food. They did have coffee and drinks, but I am not huge on latte's and coffee things, but I will say, I was sitting next to this European couple, and they got it. They were like ohhh wow, this is amazing. So I can only assume they know coffee things more than me. So I am taking their...

(Long wait this time and not surprised about that considering the quality they offer) New crêpes on the menu,drinks and new staff. Still amazing for my personal experience. I was worried that it may changed too much but it was the way I liked it.

I noticed negative review which is literally a mystery to me 😂

It's amazing we can get those crêpe in Japan and the Savory is something there is no way you will taste somewhere else, just Amazing!!!

Thanks again and good luck to the team 💕

Offering unique experience in Japan for sure 100% I never seen such a store in Japan !

They use French plate,cutlery.

Menu and size are exactly what you can find in Paris or even bigger for some crêpes.

All equipment are from France and be ready to be full

(If you want to eat inside you will have to order one drink)

The regular drink menu including coffee and tea and bar menu is very large and price are correct.

Was funny to see that they make home made Samurai Sauce which is very popular in Europe and spicy. Update ::

The menu is much larger for sweet and Savory since my first visit last year

Thanks to the staff kindness and...

This is my second time in Japan and my second visit to this amazing shop ❤️ As someone who has eaten a lot of crêpes in France, including recently in Paris, I can confidently say that these crêpes are VERY GOOD!

Beyond the incredible friendliness of the staff, the crêpes themselves are absolutely outstanding. What sets this place apart is the generous variety of ingredients they offer, far more than you’d typically find in a regular crêpe shop in Paris. To get something similar back home, with customizable toppings and this level of creativity, you’d have to seek out a local or niche spot and it would likely cost more.

The fusion style here is executed beautifully, blending classic French flavors with exciting twists. I tried the Fifty Fifty savory crêpe and the Mini Roll Nutella, and both were perfection. Highly recommend (again) visiting if you're in Japan

it’s worth the trip!

(1st visit feedback) Very well received! Very good crêpes, both sweet and savoury! 😍 You really feel like you're in France! Highly recommend. You won't...
