MK Guide Recommends
Casa da Andorinha is a rarity in Osaka: a soulful, small-format Portuguese restaurant where comfort food and low-intervention wine meet in warm, unpretentious harmony. Tucked inside a crystal-faced building near Awaza Station, this intimate spot seats only a few guests at a time, with hand-written menus and an open kitchen where cod fritters, grilled sardines, and feijoada are served with steady rhythm and care. The wine list leans natural and Iberian, with occasional imports hard to find elsewhere in Japan. Whether for a slow solo dinner or a quiet night with a close companion, Casa da Andorinha is the kind of place you hesitate to recommend too widely—for fear it might fill up.
