Location: It was great being close to Dotonbori! Experience: The clothes were so beautiful~ I went to Osaka Castle, and because the clothes were so pretty, many other tourists asked to take pictures with me, which made me very happy! The price is also quite reasonable! However, the shoes hurt my feet a lot and made them tired. If you don't like uncomfortable feet, I recommend wearing sneakers.

So glad to spend time with this Tea Master. Very interesting history and Uji matcha tea making lesson. Many opportunities to ask questions. Finished the experience with a walk to the nearby Buddhist Shrine. A wonderful experience.

Very educational cultural activity by a chado master. Great detail was put into teaching us about the art and history. Our instructor was clear and effective. I gained a greater understanding and admiration of this aspyof Japanese culture.

Excellent walking tour with an English-speaking tour guide. He explained the historical places we visited and answered all our questions, and he handled all the tickets needed to enter the castle and shrine. No problem getting them because the tour guide taught us what to do, so no long lines for the tickets. Highly recommend 😉!

This all you can A5 Wagyu was amazing! it was a 12 y/o boy, a 16 y/o girl, a mother in law and a husband and wife and it was just the right amount of amaziness! We had a salad, soup, A5 and A4, abalone, shrimp, and scallops! a bit hard to find because it’s in Dotonburi however, if you get in the general area there is someone outside on the street level that will direct you up. atomshere and service was excellent! A true must try!

I usually go to the same place, but I tried somewhere new and was completely satisfied! The meat quality was excellent, and best of all, it was a private room, which was great for individual dining. However, the stews were really not good, but the lemon cold noodles were a delicious specialty, haha. The meat quality was generally very good, and the unlimited alcohol option was just too filling for me. It was about 2,000 won? I paid extra to upgrade to premium, but next time, I think the basic option will be enough. 120 minutes isn't enough, and they stop taking orders 30 minutes before closing! They bait you with a promise of wagyu if you write a Google review, but they don't actually give it to you, haha. I was satisfied anyway, so it was fine, but someone on Google reviews gave them 1 star, saying they promised wagyu but didn't deliver, haha. Even without the bait-and-switch, I was satisfied! There's a small, one-pyeong (about 35 sq ft) smoking room inside the restaurant!

If you're going to worry about the cost of a meal and your wallet, you might as well just eat the wind. People work hard all day just for a satisfying meal; if you have the means to fill your stomach, then naturally you should enjoy yourself, eat happily, and eat heartily. To do otherwise is pointless. If you have too many reservations, it goes against the natural way. To live in a way that goes against the natural order makes life painful.
