DINING AJITO is providing marvelous lunch of meat near Namba station.

They offer four kind of dishes during the lunch time.

All of them looks nice, but the most popular menu is “Tokusen Kuroge-wagyu Sirloin Sumiyaki Aburi Nikujyu”.

It means Roasted and charcoal-broiled sirloin steak of special Japanese black-haired Wagyu on rice.

Of course the meat is very delicious and also you can enjoy vegetables such as onion and lettuce together with it.

There is always a long line in front of the restaurant,so sometimes they close earlier when they run out of the meats.

Get there before opening time to avoid the queue!

View from the window is so nice and you can see whole city and top of the red Ferris wheel, which is the symbol of Umeda city.

They have very nice lunch course, while another menu which name is “Selective lunch of one soup and six dishes” is very popular.

“Selective” means you can select your main dish from few menus for example fish, steak, Tempura and so on.

My favorite main dish is grilled steak on a hot stone plate.

All of their dishes is using seasonal and fresh food and you will surely enjoy their own style Japanese food.
