Osaka Cruise: Best Cruises to Osaka

Ichiran

Address: 1 Chome-4-１６ Dotonbori, Chuo Ward, Osaka, 542-0071, Japan

This 24-hour ramen spot has gained international acclaim, and several chains of Ichiran exist throughout Osaka. You get to choose exactly how you want your ramen, from texture to consistency, right down to their freshly made flour noodles. Even Forbes has called it the best ramen in town, but you’ll have to ask the locals when you’re there on an Osaka cruise.

Awajishima Burger

Address: 4-1 Ikedachō, Nishinomiya-shi, Hyōgo-ken 662-0911, Japan

You might not come to Osaka and immediately think about burgers, but it would be a shame to leave town without trying the acclaimed Awajishima Burger. It’s outfitted with a classic lettuce, tomato, onion, and mayo combo, plus a mouthwatering secret sauce. Burgers come with fried onion rings and hearty portions, so come hungry. 

Hakatarou

Address: 5th fl, SouthSide Terrace Bldg, 1-1-38 Daimyō

Ready to try authentic Japanese cuisine? At Hakatarou, you’ll get a sense of regional Japanese dishes and delicacies that aren’t often represented at Japanese restaurants stateside. Not overly expensive and located in a quaint shopping center, Hakatarou is approachable and spacious. The dishes and atmosphere are modeled after the traditional izakaya style of Japan. Order a variety of sashimi and a round of sake.

Hajime

Address: Japan, 〒550-0002 Osaka, Nishi Ward, Edobori, 1 Chome−9−11 アイプラス江戸堀

Three Michelin-starred Hajime is an upscale treat for visitors. Come prepared and call ahead to get a reservation. They bring French inspiration to Japanese ingredients, and they offer both a vegetable tasting menu and an exclusive shorter menu tasting for patrons who have limited time to imbibe and enjoy.
