Osaka, Japan｜Maguroya - Umeda Shibata

Absolutely sashimi paradise, especially for the sublime toro!!! Amazing taste, big slabs at good price. Tried firefly squid and fried tuna cutlet which were all tasty, and the tomatoes are a fresh side to go with all that good stuff.

This place is a tuna paradise! The tuna is really fresh. We had tuna sashimi, tuna specials, deep-fried dishes, tuna head (really juicy and tasty!), tomato w/ mayonnaise (super sweet), long white reddish oden.. all dishes were amazing! Atmosphere was really nice. You eat among the locals. The waitress was really kind, friendly and helpful. She explained everything very well. She recommended us a good bottle of sake. I’ll definitely visit this place again in the future.

I know this place from YouTube guy Mark Wiens, he made a review of this place and was my dream to come here and taste the food and damn, I was not disappointed. It took a while for me and brother to find this place because he put the wrong google map link. We tried our best to ask around and finally we found it and now I’ve marked it properly in my google maps. The tuna here was excellent in every way. My fav is raw fresh tuna belly and the marinated tuna with egg yolk in the middle. It’s all very fresh and I barely talked during the dinner session here. You have to come around 6pm if you want to get empty table because it will be crowded later. Price is on the high side but it’s worth the money to taste fresh tuna fish here. Highly recommended if you’re a tuna lover! ;)
