Mithila Restaurant is a long-standing Indian dining spot on the second floor of the Hiramatsu Ogiya Building along Dotonbori, just a short stroll from the famous Glico running-man sign in Osaka's Chuo Ward. It is well known for authentic North and South Indian cuisine, with buttered chicken and vegetarian curries drawing steady crowds of locals and travellers.The kitchen caters carefully to vegetarian and Jain diets, offering a reassuring option for plant-based diners in a district better known for meaty street food. Opening hours run from morning until late evening, with wheelchair access and a relaxed sit-down setting that suits families, couples and solo visitors alike.
If you are craving a warming, spice-laden curry after exploring the neon-lit canal, Mithila makes a friendly and convenient stop in the heart of Dotonbori.

The restaurant feels somewhat lifeless in the lively Dotonbori district, as if it exists in its own world. The interior looks outdated and could use a refresh. While the staff may not appear especially warm, the service itself is acceptable…

After five days of nonstop Japanese cuisine, we craved something different. While exploring Dotonbori, we noticed an Indian restaurant sign and went up to the second floor.

Delicious Indian curries are served on a quiet second‑floor restaurant with a view of Dotonbori streets. The atmosphere is enhanced by upbeat EDM tracks and playful bead decorations. You can pick a set menu with one, two, or three curries, each well prepared.

We loved the lively atmosphere, with classic 90s Kumar Sanu songs playing in the background while we enjoyed Indian food in downtown Osaka. We almost tried every vegetarian dish on the menu and found the flavors and quality to be excellent.

We loved the food and appreciated that everything was halal. The portions were huge. The naan was delicious, the butter chicken was perfect, and the tandoori chicken, which we thought would be a small starter, turned out to be a generous serving. Service was fast and the dishes arrived quickly.
