Nestled in the back alleys of Nishi-Nakajima, where the nostalgic atmosphere of the Showa era still lingers, is the soba restaurant Katsusei. This long-established restaurant has captivated soba enthusiasts with its nostalgic ambience and remarkable value for money.
This area was once bustling with factory workers, and this shop still retains its old-fashioned charm. The aroma of soba flour wafting from the entrance builds high expectations. And when the signature handmade soba is served, the fine texture and deep flavor will captivate you. The smooth, flavorful broth, steeped in carefully prepared dashi, is exquisite.
The side dishes are equally exquisite as the soba. The generous portions of katsudon feature tender, juicy chicken enveloped in a meltingly soft crust. The tamagoyaki served with the katsu set meal is rich and moist with a velvety texture. While the menu may not be extensive, each dish is simply delicious.
The interior exudes an old-fashioned charm with its wooden accents. At the counter seats, you can experience an atmosphere where chatting with others is enjoyable. The unpolished service from the staff may seem lax, but it exudes the passion of traditional business. Come and savor an exquisite bowl of soba in this cafe where the food culture of Osaka thrives.
