Last update :

Located within the multipurpose complex "MIRAIZA OSAKA-JO" with a view of Osaka Castle's main tower, this bar celebrates "Konamon," the representative local food of Osaka. The goal was to have both domestic and international visitors experience and enjoy this local delicacy. The name "Rikyu" pays homage to Sen no Rikyu, a tea master from the Azuchi-Momoyama period (1568-1600) who is said to have perfected "Wabi-cha" and is even sometimes considered the originator of Konamon.

What can you savor here? Well, it's Osaka's signature "Konamon" dishes like "Takoyaki" (octopus balls), "Okonomiyaki" (savory pancakes), and "Udon" noodles. Among them, the "Takoyaki" is a must-try. The Takoyaki here is served plain without any sauce, and it's up to the diner to dress them up! Made from high-quality ingredients like domestic wheat, you get to personalize your Takoyaki by adding your choice of specially-prepared sauces and condiments—a fun and interactive dining experience.

The venue also offers light meals, sweets, drinks, and alcoholic beverages. It's the perfect stopover during your exploration of Osaka Castle.
