One star reflects my extreme disappointment. Over the past few years I came to visit Japan once a year. This is the first time the reviews did not correspond to my actual experience. This is the first time that I found 2 prices on the menu and the higher price in bracket is the price I had to pay.

Highly recommend this place for both the food and the wonderful...

We ordered a ton of a la carte items and I cannot stress this enough - everything was delicious and exactly what I was looking for. So freakin' good. Very nice staff. We sat right down, maybe it was the time if the evening or that it was a Tuesday, if that matters in Osaka. In any case it was fabulously light and tasty. I even had a beer which I normally never have but it paied so well with them tempura. Just come try...
