Gaijin offers an exceptional dining experience with delicious okonomiyaki variations like the smoked fish Okasa and Osaka Style, with crunchy rice. The pickles are a must-try, and the yuzu black sesame kakigori is a favorite dessert choice. The staff are knowledgeable and personable, providing quick service with appetizers arriving promptly. The menu includes vegetarian and tofu options, and the staff is accommodating to dietary restrictions. The extensive cocktail and sake menu, along with helpful servers, make for a delightful dining experience at Gaijin. Customers appreciate the Satsumaimo cocktail, Veggie Korokke appetizer, and the Mushroom and Yuba Hiroshima okonomiyaki as highlights. The Hiroshima style okonomiyaki with yakisoba, bacon, and cabbage is a customer favorite, and the twice-cooked garlic dish is a savory delight. Gaijin offers a great ambiance and attentive service, making it a must-visit destination.
