Located in the heart of Namba, “Kushikatsu Shirotaya Dotonbori Main Store,” produced by food fighter Giant Shirota, delivers the perfect trio: “cheap, delicious, and big.” The restaurant focuses on a special oil blend and fine batter to create light, non-greasy kushikatsu that won’t weigh you down. Enjoy it with their original sauce, developed in collaboration with a long-established sauce maker—perfect for generous dipping.
Super huge! Whole ingredients deep-fried
Shirotaya’s signature Giant Skewers!
A must-try when you visit is the famous “Giant Skewers.” Whole ingredients such as eggplant, fish cake, rolled omelet, hamburger steak, and sausages are deep-fried as they are, creating a hearty, heavyweight dish—all priced at ¥580 each. We also offer the “Giant Beer” (¥1,160), served in a 20 cm tall mug, perfect to enjoy together with the giant skewers.
From Osaka’s famous pickled ginger
to fun-textured Yukimi Daifuku skewers
Kushikatsu starts from ¥130 per skewer, offering a wide variety. In addition to classic meat and seafood, you can try Osaka-style “Large Pickled Ginger” (¥270), unique options like “Kishu Nanko Plum” (¥270), and even dessert such as “Yukimi Daifuku Kushikatsu” (¥210). If you can’t decide, assorted sets are available from ¥980 for 5 skewers.
Even if you try many kinds, it won’t feel heavy
The secret lies in the oil, batter, and original sauce!
We use a unique blend of animal and plant-based oils, and frequently replace the oil to achieve a light, crispy texture. The fine batter also drains oil well, keeping it from feeling heavy, and pairs perfectly with the refreshing original sauce. In addition to the pour-over sauce on the table, for an extra ¥200 and up, you can enjoy unlimited double-dipping sauce served in a silver tray.
Almost the entire menu is included in the all-you-can-eat & drink plan!
