The place
A precise version of the Kushinobo format
This is the Hozenji home base of a kushikatsu specialist founded in Osaka in 1950. Seasonal ingredients arrive one skewer at a time, with counter seats for watching the frying and tables for a slower group meal.
Kushinobo began in Osaka in 1950. Its defining format is creative kushikatsu made from seasonal ingredients and served in sequence, rather than a single plate arriving all at once.
The catch
Why this place, specifically
Choose this branch when the history matters as much as the meal: it is the clearest place to connect Kushinobo's present-day omakase format with its Osaka origin.
