Le Bistro Queue de Porc

A restaurant woven into the everyday life of the neighborhood.

Long before convenience stores or fast food arrived in the area, Chef-Owner Tanaka opened Le Bistro Queue de Porc in 1983—a charming French bistro that continues to be a local favorite.

From the outside, the restaurant gives off a cozy, welcoming vibe. Step inside, and you’ll find a space that feels nothing like the formal or heavy atmosphere often associated with French dining. Instead, it offers calmness, warmth, and a casual, homely feel.
The interior blends classical table seating with a casual counter, adorned with antique cabinets and thoughtful touches. At the counter near the entrance, you can enjoy your meal comfortably while watching the quiet flow of people outside through the street-facing window.

Prices here are surprisingly affordable. Each dish is crafted with care—vegetables are prepared to highlight their natural flavors, while meat and fish dishes are satisfyingly hearty without feeling too rich or heavy. This balance makes French cuisine here feel incredibly approachable and comforting. It’s easy to see why the restaurant has been so beloved by locals for decades.

Whether you’re dining solo or in a group, Le Bistro Queue de Porc is an easy place to walk into. Chef Tanaka and the warm, friendly manager will welcome you with open arms.

Located just a 5-minute taxi ride from Osaka Castle, this is a perfect stop for travelers visiting the area or staying nearby.

A meal here is not just delicious—it’s a truly local and memorable experience.
