Toyonaka, Osaka, Japan｜亀は萬年

Amazing food - true Japanese style! Nodoguro grill is worth the wait. Incredible selection of drinks and beautiful home made food.

Given the name of the shop and the fact that it has been around for a long time, I thought it was run by an older person, but I was surprised to see that it was run by a much younger person. I can only thank you for the warm welcome you gave me even though I came without a reservation with my child. We were guided to the 2nd floor as previously informed that the 1st floor was for smoking and the 2nd floor was for non-smoking. The children were very happy to see the lanterns all over the ceiling. All the dishes are delicious and filling! It was so delicious that I completely forgot to take a photo...lol The appetizer is stone-grilled salted squid. Personally, I was really excited because even though I really like this, I haven't been able to find a restaurant where I can eat it recently. My partner's favorite is the braised pork. Although the amount was a little small, it was the best with the trottoro stain. The kids were just eating the Isobe fried chikuwa (3 pieces is a big meal). I asked for the kamameshi type on my first order because it would take a long time. It arrived when I forgot about it, but the taste and quantity were wonderful (I easily poured 4 cups into a bowl and my child ate them too, and I still had some left over). You can put the uneaten food in a bag and take it home, but I was a little happy that they made it into rice balls instead of just packing it up. It costs about 7,200 yen for 2 adults and 1 infant for a stay of just over an hour. Even though I could only drink 2-3 drinks each, I was still surprised at how cheap it was. The seafood manju, which seems to be their signature product, was out of stock this time, so I would like to get revenge next time with seafood that is rumored to be delicious! It was my first visit to an izakaya since the coronavirus, and I'm glad I found such a wonderful place. I will continue to use it in the future!

I ordered the creative Japanese cuisine course, and there were many dishes I had never eaten before. I love Japanese food, and all the hot, freshly prepared dishes were delicious! ! All the staff were smiling, cheerful, and very responsive. The name of the store, “Kame wa Mannen” is also great.
