Whether you're sightseeing in Dotombori or here for kabuki, this restaurant, in a lovely, typical Japanese setting in the basement of the Shochikuza Theater, is a good pick. A microbrewery (¥450 for a glass of light or dark beer), Tachibana specializes in tofu (only in Japan!), with tofu included in most of the set meals. There's no English-language menu, but a changing daily lunch and the tofu teishoku (¥2,600) are affordable and delicious. You can see famous kabuki actors dining here, but how could you recognize them without their makeup?
Another Tachibana (tel. 06/4796-5770) is located in the basement of the Hilton Hotel in Umeda, open Monday through Friday 11am to 3pm and 5 to 11pm and Saturday 11am to 11pm.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
