About this spot
BAR Aquavit offers a sophisticated escape from Kuromon Market's chaotic energy with Nordic-inspired small plates that feel worlds away from typical Osaka fare. Expect to order the smoky salmon tartare and crispy pork belly, served in a dimly lit setting where the focus is on high-quality ingredients rather than speed.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the smoked eel or herring first as they are best enjoyed immediately while warm.
- Reserve your table ahead of time because seating fills up quickly despite the market's proximity.
- Ask for recommendations on the rotating seasonal menu, as items change frequently based on local catch.
