Osaka, Japan｜Maido Ookini Ueroku Shokudo

I’m not sure why the reviews aren’t higher but my family loved this place during our visit to Osaka! Food is good and price is okay too! We love the concept as you basically choose the small portions of cooked/cold dishes placed out in the counters (with prices labeled clearly). The staff will then help to heat up some of the cooked dishes! Great for sharing as we get to eat a lot of dishes in just 1 meal and they are really yummy too! Service-wise, the staff are helpful in heating up our food. You pay after you eat here at the counter - they will note down what you’ve ordered as you grab the dishes. Only thing is it’s less tourist-friendly as the staff can’t really speak English, but I think it’s not an issue as you can really just grab what you want to eat. Only difficult part probably is ordering noodles (soba/udon) or soup as those are on the Japanese menu. Recommend to try if you’re nearby! Yummy, affordable and convenient location near Uehonmachi station!

Where did you go for breakfast? When you enter, you move forward with a tray and place the food you want on the tray. When you get to the checkout counter, you decide on the size of rice and type of soup, and if you want, you can order additional egg rolls. I chose grilled salmon, spinach and katsuobushi side dishes, salted cod roe, and miso soup, and they were all delicious. It was so nice to come here after going to a gyudon chain restaurant for breakfast. Calculate when you go out.

Even when you are not feeling well, you can eat it with peace of mind. I don't notice when I'm in good shape After all, what I usually eat (including eating out) has a strong taste and uses a lot of salt. When you're really sick and can't cook rice I have no choice but to rely on eating out and delivery It was impossible to eat anywhere. At that time, Maido Ookini Shokudo, which I used for the first time, was very helpful. The feeling of security that my mother made for me permeated my weakened body.
