As the best gourmet place in Japan, Osaka has a lot of restaurants serving delicious food! It is not exaggerated to say you never fail whichever restaurant you choose.
You would have a hard time to decide the place with so many choices of nice restaurants! Not only tourists but even locals have a headache to select where to eat.
Here, among those nice and delicious restaurants, I present 7 steak restaurants selected by locals of Osaka.
■Large and filling meat! “Wolfgang steak house Osaka” serving reasonable courses as well.
With relaxing atmosphere in a high quality restaurant, you can feel a bit luxurious there. Since they serve a variety of wine as well, it is strongly recommended for those who would like to enjoy beef with wine.
Although inside the restaurant is high-toned, it’s good that the prices are reasonable in fact. A course menu starts from 10,000 yen.
If you cannot make your mind what to eat, then a course is recommended. Their standard course includes an appetizer as well as a dessert, and you can enjoy both seafood and meat.
Staff members politely deal with customers and they can give you suggestions, according to your preference. Since they offer happy hours everyday, you can visit without hesitation whenever you want to enjoy luxurious time.
