This is the original and flagship restaurant of a pufferfish specialty restaurant in Kansai Area with multiple locations both in Japan and overseas. The restaurant is approximately a 2-minute walk from Namba Station on the Osaka Metro Midosuji Line, and its large signboard will catch your eye. Highly regarded in Osaka, the city with the highest pufferfish consumption in Japan, the restaurant offers premium pufferfish year-round. While casual courses are available, a highlight is the course featuring over 3 kg of wild Japanese tiger pufferfish shipped directly from Shimonoseki City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The firm texture and profound flavor unique to wild-caught fish are truly exceptional. From April to October, a variety of plump, fatty eel dishes are also available for a limited time.

鰻処 藤野商店
Opened in July 2024, this eel restaurant is located approximately a 5-minute walk from Terachimachi Station on the Hankai Electric Railway. The owner, who has long supplied eel to department stores throughout Osaka Prefecture, is known for offering high-quality eel at reasonable prices. The signature kabayaki (grilled eel with sauce) is prepared with great care over two days before serving. Inside, the space features a stylish ash beige interior, yet maintains a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere - reminiscent of a casual diner - reflecting the owner's warm and welcoming personality and "desire to make delicious eel more accessible".
