Okonomiyaki is a savory grilled pancake similar to an omelette. This traditional Japanese dish can be made from all sorts of ingredients and flavors, and there are many regional variants. Osaka and the Kansai region are famous for their okonomiyaki, but Tokyo has a few top spots too.
A typical okonomiyaki restaurant just brings the batter to your table and lets you cook it yourself—locals will tell you that’s half the fun. But at this Osaka-born restaurant, all the hard work is done for you. Just order your favorite and have it expertly cooked by the chefs. Kiji is a perfect choice for those who are trying the dish for the first time. English menus are available.
Come for the okonomiyaki, and stay for the atmosphere. Suzume no Oyado was once an old geisha house or okiya, and it has retained much of its original features. This place is actually a teppanyaki restaurant with grills at the table and both traditional Japanese and Western-style seating options. They also serve monja, a type of liquid okonomiyaki for which Tokyo is famous.
