Japanese restaurant • 2-chōme-4-20 Tenjinbashi, Kita Ward, Osaka, 530-0041, Japan
When walking the streets of Osaka, many notable restaurants can be found standing quietly in the back alleys. One such place is Hanamizuki in Kita-ku Tenjinbashi. This establishment is a long-established Japanese restaurant that has been passed down since the Edo period. Its wonderful flavors and charming ambiance, maintained by the fourth-generation owner, are the main attractions.
The cuisine at Hanamizuki is authentic Japanese food that fully brings out the flavors of the ingredients. Using exceptionally fresh seasonal seafood and vegetables, everything is carefully prepared from the broth. In particular, the famous tai-no-kabuto-ni (simmered sea bream head) showcases a taste unique to a long-established restaurant.
The interior is a charming space renovated from a retro Osaka machiya. Time flows leisurely in the calm atmosphere. One can feel the owner's dedication in every detail, allowing them to experience the authentic Osaka.
The appeal of Hanamizuki goes beyond its cuisine and atmosphere. The warm personality of the mama-san and the enjoyment of conversations among customers are also important experiences. With a little humor in the conversation, one will involuntarily relax.
Hanamizuki, where the rich culture of old Osaka remains, is a precious place to taste top-notch Japanese cuisine and emotions, away from the urban hustle and bustle. If you visit Osaka, be sure to stop by and experience it for yourself.
