The Restaurant
Taian, nestled on a quiet street in Osaka's Nagahoribashi district, is helmed by chef Hitoshi Takahata, who spent fifteen years honing his craft at Ajikitcho before opening Taian in 2000. The restaurant's name, meaning "big hut," reflects Takahata's ambition to infuse his intimate space with a bold and generous spirit. Since 2011, Taian has consistently earned three Michelin stars, a testament to Takahata's dedication to culinary excellence. The intimate setting features a counter where diners can observe the chef's artistry firsthand. Takahata masterfully blends traditional Kaiseki techniques with modern sensibilities, creating an inviting and beautiful experience. His wife manages the dining room, greeting guests with warmth. The tasting menu showcases Takahata's depth of experience, featuring rare flavors and artfully crafted presentations.
