About this place
For a change from thick, generously sized okonomiyaki, Kitahachi offers a different style. One visitor recalled its thin, smaller pancakes with fondness. It may suit a day when you fancy a lighter, old-fashioned take rather than a large, filling meal.
Options range from pork, prawn or squid okonomiyaki to a mixed version with pork, squid, prawn and egg. One visitor chose the mixed okonomiyaki, adding two kinds of sauce, dried bonito flakes and aonori seaweed. Another review describes okonomiyaki topped with mayonnaise, with diners brushing on table-side sauce themselves. Deciding how to layer the sauces is a small pleasure of the meal.
Yakisoba is also on the menu, and one review recommends ordering it separately from the okonomiyaki, as two distinct dishes. You can choose modanyaki, which combines okonomiyaki with noodles, or have yakisoba on the side; the choice depends on your appetite and mood. The restaurant offers dine-in service and is described as suitable for solo diners. Rice, miso soup and bottled beer are also available: rice and soup make a more complete meal, while beer pairs well with the savoury dishes.
