MK Guide Recommends
Ginzaya is a classic tachinomi-style izakaya located in the basement of Osaka Station’s first Ekimae Building. A favorite among office workers and regulars, the place is always lively—especially in the early evening—with patrons standing shoulder to shoulder over skewers, draft beer, and conversation. The menu offers simple, satisfying dishes like fried items, oden, and daily specials, all at budget-friendly prices. With no reservations, no frills, and a cash-only policy, Ginzaya delivers the authentic flavor of Osaka’s after-work drinking scene.
