Hariju Dotonbori

Hariju has been serving premium beef in Dotonbori since 1919, making it one of Osaka's longest-running sukiyaki and shabu-shabu specialists. The restaurant occupies a traditional Japanese building that provides a welcome contrast to the flashy streetscape outside, with tatami rooms and attentive service that set the tone for a leisurely meal. Their sukiyaki uses carefully selected domestic wagyu, simmered tableside in a sweet soy-based broth with tofu, vegetables, and a raw egg dip that enriches every bite. Lunch sets offer a more affordable entry point to Hariju's quality, while dinner courses let you experience the full range of beef preparations. The location steps from Dotonbori's canal makes it a natural anchor for an evening out.
