Tempura Numata has always been well-known by most all Tempura-loving foodies.

Having relocated from Tenjin to Kitashinchi in November 2011, the area in Osaka famous for being a hub of top culinary establishments, Tempura Numata captured everyone’s attention in 2022 by being recognized as 2 Michelin stars.

The secret to Tempura Numata’s exceptional dishes is in its carefully selected ingredients and the meticulously-kept temperature they are cooked at. Two types of shrimp tempura are served, and guests are amazed by how different they taste due to them being cooked at differing oil temperatures. Other techniques include pre-cooking the vegetable and seafood ingredients inside the tempura batter, in order to bring out the most from its flavor.

Enjoy the live entertainment of Tempura from across the counter, from the visuals of watching tempura being cooked directly in front of you to the crisp sounds of fresh ingredients being chopped. The location in Tenjin where Tempura Numata previously used to stand now operates as “Tennou Hanare” which is run by Numata’s top graduate apprentice and is a place where similarly delicious tempura and lively atmosphere can be enjoyed.
