Yumegorilla

Yumegorilla is a wildly popular standing bar in the basement of the Osaka Ekimae Dai-1 Building near Kitashinchi, beloved for serving outstanding fresh seafood at remarkably low prices. Lines often form before opening for its sashimi platters, chicken liver sashimi, and crisp tempura, all paired with ice-cold draft beer.

Opened in May 2021, it has built a devoted following purely on quality and value, with no reservations accepted and a cash-only counter. The restaurant operates across what may be two adjoining counters sharing the same address, so exact opening times can vary slightly between visits.
