Yakiniku — Japanese grill-it-yourself barbecue — is the best group dinner in Dotonbori: you order plates of meat, cook them over a tabletop grill, and drink as you go. Many places offer an all-you-can-eat (tabehodai) or all-you-can-drink (nomihodai) course for a fixed price.

Expect ¥3,000–¥6,000 per person with drinks at a mid-range place; premium wagyu specialists cost more. Most yakiniku restaurants in Dotonbori take reservations, and weekends fill up — arrive before 18:30 or book.

Local specialty: Okonomiyaki. Osaka's savory layered pancake — cabbage, batter, meat or seafood, topped with sweet sauce and mayo. Distinct from Hiroshima style: Osaka mixes everything together. Mizuno (Dotonbori), Fukutaro (Namba), or any neighborhood shop off the main strip.
