Located in the back alleys of Kita-ku, Osaka, Maruta Izakaya is one of the most renowned establishments in Osaka. As soon as you step inside, you are greeted with a charming, old-fashioned interior. The friendly owner's carefully selected sake and perfectly matched dishes are the main attractions.
The essence of Maruta lies in the diverse selection of sake curated by the knowledgeable owner. The reasonable price of 450 yen per glass allows you to savor a variety of sake. The clear, chilled tin sake cups enhance the taste of the sake to the very last drop.
The fresh seafood dishes also go exceptionally well with sake. The specialty 'Maruta Assortment' offers a luxurious combination of fresh tuna, sea urchin, and salmon roe, complemented with the day's seasonal ingredients. Additionally, the lightly seared bonito cheek meat is bursting with the flavor as if savoring beef.
Maruta Izakaya offers reasonably priced, hearty, and superb dishes that pair impeccably with sake. When in Osaka, it's worth taking a little detour to visit this hidden gem of an izakaya. Why not thoroughly enjoy the owner's recommended sake and exquisite dishes?
