Mitchan Sohonten



It is no exaggeration to say that Micchan is one of the most famous okonomiyaki restaurants in Hiroshima. There is probably no one in Hiroshima Prefecture who does not know its name. As times have changed, variations of Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki have increased, and some restaurants have made bold arrangements. On the other hand, Micchan, on the other hand, has maintained its old history and traditions, and despite its relatively light flavor, you can tell that the okonomiyaki is filled with a variety of specialties. Therefore, the restaurant that offers the best taste of the original "the Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki "may be Micchan.



At night, we have a wide variety of teppan snack dishes such as oysters and kone, which go great with beer. We also recommend trying okonomiyaki to finish off your drinks.

However, since Micchan is an extremely popular restaurant, if you go there during the dinner time, a long line usually forms, so we recommend that you try to stagger your visit a little.

Umaimon-ya Goemon



Goemon is a well-known okonomiyaki restaurant not only in Hiroshima City, but also in Higashi-Hiroshima and Kure City. The restaurant is marked by its distinctive yellow sign.



The regular meatball soba is of course delicious, but there are a variety of tempting okonomiyaki such as special soba, powerful soba, deluxe soba, and full moon yaki, and to be honest, I always have a hard time deciding which one to choose. Personally, I would recommend the Stamina-yaki with plump hormone and garlic. You can also order a course meal at a relatively reasonable price, so this restaurant is also available for banquets.

You can enjoy not only okonomiyaki but also one-of-a-kind teppanyaki dishes such as Hiroshima's specialty "Uni Horen ". Therefore, those who come from outside of the prefecture will be able to enjoy a night out in Hiroshima more than enough at Goemon.

Denko Ishikka is a very popular restaurant chain not only in Hiroshima but also throughout Japan. All of the restaurants have a lively and bright atmosphere, and eating okonomiyaki there seems to naturally cheer you up.



Unlike standard Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, the slightly rounded shape is perhaps the most distinctive feature of DENKOSHIKI. The fluffy texture of the egg is exquisite, and it is easy to see why it is so popular. The fluffy texture and the large amount of vegetables in the okonomiyaki make it a popular okonomiyaki restaurant among women as well.

In addition to okonomiyaki, we also offer a full range of teppanyaki dishes such as oysters with butter. "A Hiroshima specialty teppanyaki dish called Momiji Pork "is also highly recommended.

Located near Peace Park, Nagataya is easily accessible and is a popular restaurant with long lines at lunchtime. There are sometimes huge lines, especially on Saturdays and Sundays.

The okonomiyaki sauce is not the familiar "Otafuku Sauce "that Hiroshima residents are familiar with, but an original, refreshing sauce. The store's recommendation "Nagataya-yaki "is an okonomiyaki filled with fresh shrimp and squid tempura, topped with a large amount of green onions and, what's more, a raw egg yolk on top of it. The picture alone is enough to tell you that the taste is irresistible. You will definitely become addicted to it. Please try it at the restaurant.

Katekate Special Sauce



The okonomiyaki with homemade katekate special sauce seems to contain "red wine sauce "and other ingredients, and I think it literally tastes like an adult. Once you try it, you will get addicted to it. The okonomiyaki filled with Katekate's special sauce will be a special taste that you cannot find anywhere else.

The teppan grill of oysters and kone, Hiroshima's specialty, is also delicious and will surely make your beer go down a notch.

In addition to okonomiyaki, Takoyaki, Yakisoba, and Soba-meshi are also available, and they too are superb.

Yanagida's favorite place



In fact, this restaurant has become famous because the top professional baseball player, Yanagida (a.k.a. Gita) of SoftBank, frequented this restaurant during his college days. I have seen it introduced several times on local TV programs. Yanagita still comes here in the off-season, sometimes as a personal guest. Therefore, it seems that Gita fans in Fukuoka also frequent this place. Why don't you try this okonomiyaki that has grabbed the stomach of Gita-dono at least once?
