Lopez Okonomiyaki - Hiroshima

Lopez is a restaurant specialising in “okonomiyaki”. Diners enjoy the food prepared before you on the grill. Seats are limited, so please wait. Pro Tip: Try the jalapeños as a topping.

And this restaurant to your to-do list while in Hiroshima. The classic dishes served up here by the Master chef and owner are well worth the trip. Make sure to add the toppings of your choice since the signature dish which starts out as sort of a crepe with a ton of cabbage can be a little bland. My suggestion is add pork, jalapenos and cheese. Be prepared to sit at the grill area and eat the food right off the grill, although if you confess you're a novice Chef Lopez will provide you a plate.

Just superb. I haven't eaten many of the okonomiyaki on offer in Hirohsima, but it's clear that this is a masterclass in the skills required to turn out the perfect dish every time. The owner is so welcoming, working with a skilled team to keep the grill moving while chatting away with all the customers seated around it, it's a real joy to watch them work together. Highly recommended for anybody, local or visitor, it's a genuine pleasure to eat here.

Great okonomiyaki and even better service. A great small restaurant with lots of options on how to eat your okonomiyaki. The owner is really kind and a great cook. Prices are reasonable for the quality, about 670-800 yen for a basic one and then extra for toppings. I highly recommend this place when in Hiroshima!

Friendly and cozy ambience with great and reasonable okonomiyaki. Always busy and crowded. Possible to take away and we did actually see many taking away their okonomiyaki
