A local eatery in Namba serving Japanese-style food in a relaxed, unpretentious setting close to Dotonbori and Hozenji Yokocho.
Temmasa sits on a back street in Namba, minutes from the bright lights of Dotonbori and the quieter lanes of Hozenji Yokocho. The restaurant focuses on straightforward Japanese cooking, offering a menu of rice bowls, grilled dishes, sake and daily specials.The atmosphere is neighbourhood rather than tourist-targeted, with simple interiors and friendly service. It makes a good lunch or early dinner option when you want to escape the most crowded stretches without going far.
Stop by if you are looking for an easy, low-key meal in central Namba: the location puts you within walking distance of shopping, theatres and the riverside, so it works as either a rest stop or a starting point for the evening.

It's the most local place you can find on this street. Go in, find a seat at the counter and order your food. Service is quick and efficient. You get well-made soba and udon with simple toppings, not much protein but nothing fancy either, and it's all around ¥600 or less.
