Chibo Kyobashi Keihan Mall

Restaurant Details

No one feels more at home than when Chibo, the first okonomiyaki chain founded in 1973 with branches across Japan, opens its doors at Kyobashi Keihan Mall in Osaka, the birthplace of this beloved street food.

The restaurant is here to challenge any notion that the casual, downtown-style savory pancake is merely “flour-based food” — and that it could be elevated to a whole new level. This success has led to multiple locations settling within luxurious department stores and hotels. One such location, in the Kyobashi Keihan Mall, serves as a testament to the fact that the once-perceived humble okonomiyaki has earned its place in gourmet dining.

This particular Chibo branch exudes the signature "cheerful" vibe of the brand—welcoming greetings from the staff, the laughter of customers, bright lighting, and lively background music.

A few telltale signs define a Chibo’s authentic okonomiyaki. The pancake needs to be crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. It also needs to balance the crunch of the cabbage with the rich, flavorful sauce. The batter is kneaded in-store daily, and the toppings range from classic pork belly to head-on prawn.

Its dinner course often features the restaurant’s original Dotonbori-yaki, a dish that captures the bustle of the lively Osaka area with its generous serving of pork belly, squid, small shrimp, beef tendon, konjac and cheese. Guests can venture to the a la carte library, which offers items like the Chiboyaki, okonomiyaki with a whole shrimp perched atop, or the plump, juicy beef tongue teppanyaki.

Located just three minutes from Kyobashi Station, Chibo transports its guests to the heart of downtown Dotonbori, all without ever leaving their seats.
