Sennichimae Maguro Center — Restaurant in Osaka

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. I was greeted by a foreign staff member, which was fine, but the overall service felt unprofessional. After sitting down, I was served edamame without ordering it. Orders are placed via QR code on the table, which is convenient, but the service after that was lacking.

Several staff members were chatting in a group, seemingly talking about customers in a foreign language. Some new guests weren’t greeted properly because the staff were too busy talking. I also noticed that when young female guests arrived, male staff would immediately approach, which made the service feel inconsistent and biased.

I felt uncomfortable seeing two young women seated at the counter near the chatting male staff, who appeared to be watching them.

The main reason I came here was because I saw tuna eyeball on the menu online, but when I arrived, it wasn’t available. Very disappointing.

I hope the management can improve the service...

Shocking Discrimination & Rude Behavior - "Japanese Only" Policy!

Avoid this restaurant at all costs! While traveling in Osaka, my group was outright refused entry simply because we didn't speak Japanese. The owner rudely gestured us away and shouted, "No English! Japanese only!" When we tried to ask politely (using translation apps), he became aggressive and dismissively waved his hand in our faces. This isn't just about language—it's blatant discrimination against foreign visitors.

What angered me most was the hostility in his tone and actions. Osaka is an international city welcoming millions of tourists, yet this establishment chooses ignorance and prejudice. Dining should be about cultural exchange, not humiliation.

To all travelers: Save your dignity. Many amazing, inclusive restaurants exist in Osaka. Don’t support businesses that treat guests with such...

Me and my parents walked by this place and went in for dinner on a Sunday night. The restaurant seems to be an izakaya style seafood restaurant.

To order, we had to scan a QR code and order on our phone. Noted, each person was served a small side dish (we got some sort of lotus salad?) and was charged ¥330 as a fee. That was mandatory.

We ordered different sashimi, sushi, tempura, grilled squid, and a fish head soup. The food quality was good, especially the sashimi, it was fresh. The price wasn't too bad. I think it's standard compared to other izakaya.

The service was not there at all, except the servers brought us food. There was no water served when we sat down, which we were confused. Not sure if we had to ask them or we had to order drinks separately.

Overall it was a...
