"Enjoying excellent okonomiyaki accompanied by pints of Asahi Super Dry, surrounded by haggard Japanese salarymen in these cramped quarters, our table shaking as trains rumbled overhead… lunch at Kiji was a true Osaka experience!"

"This is a dish that you have to try for yourself to understand its strange yet fantastic appeal. The modern-yaki at Kiji will fall apart into noodles if eaten with chopsticks, so it is eaten with a small spatula that allows you to better enjoy the flavors. A dish definitely worth trying."

"If you only have time for one okonomiyaki restaurant in the city, make it the Michelin Bib Gourmand-rated Kiji in Umeda."

"The pork and squid okonomiyaki have the perfect balance of sweet, savory and salty. Now, this is the kind of okonomiyaki I love. This one from Kiji packs a lot more punches. Kiji’s price is wallet friendly and their okonomiyaki are far thicker. Can’t wait to go back for more! Highly recommended."
