Sakai, Osaka, Japan｜Kasezen

Kasezen (かせぜん) is a great place for a variety of reliable Japanese cuisine favorites. You can order either from the set course 定食 menu, or you can order the traditional izakaya style with many small shared dishes; hence, it works well either as a place to grab a quick dinner on your own or to have a fun shared meal with friends over drinks. My personal favorite is the kara'age 唐揚げ (Japanese fried chicken), although the sashimi is always fresh and delicious too. Another popular choice is the doteyaki どて焼き (beef stew). I have lived in Sakai for almost three years and Kasezen is my favorite local restaurant in the Nakamozu area. The staff is very friendly and a couple times I have even asked them for something a bit off the menu, which they happily accommodated.

Great little restaurant, frequented by locals with really good food and allot of choices in food.

Izakaya with very tasty food at reasonable prices.
