Kobe Beef Steak Ken is a teppanyaki restaurant on the second floor of the Nippo Fine Plaza Building, a few minutes from Shinsaibashisuji. The restaurant specialises in Japanese beef, including Kobe-style cuts, seared on a hot iron griddle in front of diners.
The counter and table seating put you close to the chef, who prepares steak, seasonal vegetables and sides such as garlic rice or miso soup as part of set meals or à la carte options. Reservations are recommended, especially in the evening, as the intimate dining room and the quality of meat attract both tourists and locals.
For a splurge meal in Shinsaibashi, this is a solid choice if you want to experience teppanyaki without leaving central Osaka. Arrive hungry and be prepared to savour each bite, as the pace is usually unhurried and the beef is the star.
