There are many dishes to choose from in the restaurant, and the portions are large. I was very full this time. Another thing worth mentioning is the elegant environment of the restaurant. It can really be said that it is worth the money. The price is actually very cheap. It is a perfect meal.
it was delicious!! The restaurant is run by a family and it’s definitely the best ramen in Hiroshima 👏🏽👏🏽

Lightning and lightning is not only the name of the restaurant, but also one of the dishes. Lightning and lightning wraps other ingredients like an omelette, which not only retains the sweetness of the vegetables, but also makes a perfect match between the soft and tender eggs and fried noodles, and adds shiso leaves as garnish. Because eggs are used as ingredients, the shape of the whole Hiroshima omelette is also high and round. You may not be able to eat such a high Hiroshima omelette in other places in Japan!
The restaurant we went to was located in a building near the south exit of Hiroshima Station. The whole floor was full of Hiroshima-style BBQ, but this one was the only one that was fully occupied. We waited about 10 minutes for our seats that night. While waiting, the waiter gave us an English menu and asked us to order. We chose seafood and udon base and the signature Hiroshima-style BBQ and ramen base. Compared to Osaka-style BBQ, Hiroshima-style BBQ has more vegetables and the taste is not as strong as Osaka-style BBQ. I personally like it more, because you can add sauce as needed. In addition to tourists, there are also many Japanese people dining there.

There is a choice of Udon or Ramen as a base. It's very local and goes really well with a cold draft beer. We arrived around 6pm so it was full but not too crowded and we managed to be seated right away. The waitress was very friendly and welcoming. So don't forget to try it, I promise you won't regret it!
Speaking of Hiroshima okonomiyaki, Mitchan is famous. The okonomiyaki was delicious, of course, but what I would like to recommend even more is the snacks. The sauteed oysters are large and have a crispy texture! They also have meat, which goes well with beer. Be sure to order a side dish.

This is a great restaurant not far from the Peace Memorial Park. It was nice to see Hiroshima style okonomiyaki being prepared. Their English menu and instructions made ordering easier, and they were willing to accommodate our different dietary preferences and needs.

The atmosphere inside the restaurant is calm and you can see the Peace Park from the window. It would be great during the cherry blossom season. The oyster set includes steamed oysters, fried oysters and shaved rice. It's delicious.

I came here for this Hiroshima omelette. I waited outside the store before it opened. Hiroshima octopus with chive vinegar is chewy and refreshing. A layer of egg is fried under the thin pancake. It is served with citrus soy sauce and sesame paste. It is so delicious that I finished it in one go. My family is very satisfied with it.
I have heard that Hiroshima yaki is better than Okonomiyaki, so we finally went there. Many foreign friends also come here. The chef made and cooked Hiroshima yaki with avocado, shrimp and double cheese. It is so delicious. It is crispy and fragrant! It tastes very good!

We were hungry after traveling for more than four hours on the Shinkansen in Tokyo, so we decided to stop and have something to eat. We didn't know what to eat, but we wanted to taste something local, and after a few minutes, we found this small restaurant called Reichan. There were already other people eating, so we had to wait a few minutes to get a table. When we sat down, a young waitress came and we ordered some drinks, but we had to wait for the food to be cooked. The chef here was very fast and prepared our order in a timely manner. The taste was great. There was no background music like in Japanese restaurants, but we didn't miss it and I highly recommend this restaurant.
Hiroshima Station can be said to be made up of Hiroshima yaki shops. Here you can see various Hiroshima yaki that started in the Meiji era. In fact, I originally wanted to go to the one next door, but the name of the shop was too similar, so I went to the wrong place. Anyway, there were a lot of people queuing for this shop, and the business was still very good. Moreover, this shop was relatively open, and there were more foreigners.
There is a big difference between Hiroshima yaki and Osaka yaki, mainly due to the difference in ingredients. It can be said that it is fried noodles wrapped in dough, and the quantity is relatively more sufficient. Like most teppanyaki restaurants, this shop also directly watched the chef cook it on the spot.
I ordered a special Hiroshima yaki recommended on the menu, which is said to have the highest click rate. I also picked a mozzarella cheese flavor. Relatively speaking, the special sauce is very rich, and the cheese is very domineering, especially when I saw the chef sprinkle a lot of mozzarella, it felt super good.
If you come to Hiroshima, I strongly recommend you to try it. The authentic ones are basically here at JR Station.
