About this spot
In Ueno's Asakusabashi area, Osaka Kushikatsu Tentekomai serves deep-fried skewers that are strictly forbidden from being dipped in sauce twice to maintain their crispy crunch. Order the Sichuan Pepper Soy Sauce skewer for a numbing kick or try the recommended Hina-dori chicken thigh before it sells out. The menu features affordable options like the 170 yen lotus root and cheese tomato skewers, making this a budget-friendly stop for savory street food.
💡 Tips before you go
- Never dip your skewer back into the communal sauce after taking a bite to avoid ruining the texture.
- Expect a lively, standing-room-only atmosphere typical of kushikatsu izakayas in Tokyo.
- The Sichuan Pepper Soy Sauce is the house specialty and pairs best with cold beer.
