Izakaya Tokitame
Japanese
An izakaya where onigiri can be sized up or down on request, which tells you something about how closely the chef is paying attention. The cooking is rooted in obanzai, the everyday Osaka tradition of small shared dishes, and the flavors lean into a kind of deliberate nostalgia, shiraae, simmered tofu, a macaroni salad that feels oddly personal. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand, and the room tends to feel like someone's mother is feeding you, which is the whole point.
