MK Guide Recommends
Yonemasu is a quietly revered name among Osaka’s sushi purists. Located on a discreet side street near Umeda, this counter-only restaurant presents a seasonal omakase that emphasizes the natural beauty of its ingredients over dramatic technique. From impeccably sliced sashimi to lightly vinegared shari, each piece is assembled with care and restraint. The chef is soft-spoken and focused, creating a hushed, contemplative atmosphere ideal for diners who appreciate simplicity and depth. With limited seating and no signage, Yonemasu is the kind of place passed between serious food lovers by word of mouth—an authentic, unpretentious reminder that true luxury lies in subtlety.
