The Charm of Sushi Matsuri, a Well-Established Sushi Restaurant in Temma, Osaka

A Treasure Trove of Good Old Fashioned Taste

A small sushi restaurant, Sushi Matsuri Nishiten, nestled in the streets of Osaka, is a traditional restaurant boasting a 60-year history. The efficient work of the husband and wife proprietors and the lively atmosphere filled with regular customers add to its charming appeal.

Authentic Sushi Craftsmanship Shines

The freshness of the sushi ingredients and their substantial presence go without saying. However, what is truly wonderful is the deliciousness of the sushi rice. When you put it in your mouth, you'll experience an elegant acidity and richness that spreads, and in the end, it melts in a delightful way. You can catch a glimpse of the discerning selection of ingredients and the high-level sushi-making skills.

A Reasonable and Cozy Space

The reasonable prices, ranging from 100 yen to 200 yen per piece, are also alluring. The menu is simple, but you may encounter daily specials with the omakase (chef's choice) selection. While some may be concerned about the smell of tobacco, you should definitely be able to feel the cozy atmosphere surrounded by regular customers more than anything else.

A Good Companion for a Night Out

It is ideally located for a night out course starting from Umeda, where you can enjoy delicious sushi and sake. It is a representative landmark of Osaka, where you can experience a special experience tasting the skills of the predecessors. Please visit and experience the space that evokes history.

Fantastic place for sashimi and sushi. Our local friends frequent here and brought us here. Place is pretty small and cramped (as are many Japanese shops) but you get a great experience.

The second Tenman bar is Sushimasa. The shop is run by the owner and his wife, and is mainly a shop with regular customers. The owner is the first generation and has been operating here for 60 years, and it is a single player game. This is my second time here, but first I ordered a large bottle of Asahi and a tekka roll. President A, who accompanied me, ordered a squid and perilla roll that was not on the menu. Afterwards, we had some salt-grilled eel and eel for snacks. The deep-fried tofu soup served by veteran regulars at the counter was so delicious that we ordered some too. After the second glass, I switched to sake and finished off with tuna and horse mackerel sushi. The store has a nice atmosphere and I would like to use it again.

There are other Sushimasa restaurants scattered around Tenma, but this one was the most delicious. I wonder what? I wonder if shari is delicious? The atmosphere was great with the owner and his wife and the regulars. This is a store that I hope will stay healthy and continue for many years to come.

[57 years since our founding! Oldest Sushi Masa] I came here while walking from Umeda to Tenma for drinks. It was my first time seeing this Sushi Masa, but I was told that it is run by a married couple and has a long history. The fact that it's lively with regulars coming in all the time is proof that it's popular among the locals. They said they didn't have anything in particular to recommend, so I ordered whatever I wanted. The ingredients are fresh, large, and delicious! It's rude to compare it to conveyor belt sushi, but it's nice to have a good grip of seasoned rice and the shari melts nicely when you put it in your mouth. Moreover, most of the items cost 100 or 200 yen each, and you can tell how much you've eaten by the color of the plate, so don't worry. I'm with a friend and it's cheap at 3,200 yen for 16 kan and two glasses of hot sake! You may be hesitant to eat sushi that doesn't turn around, but the real thrill is getting a glimpse of the craftsmanship. We recommend this as a sushi restaurant to add to your drinking trip.
