Went to Gaijin for a date night and the food was awesome! We tried the yakisoba (noodles reminded me of High Five Ramen), and the beef osaka-style pancake. Def want to go back and try the pork belly and octopus as well.

This is my first time ordering from Gaijin and I will be ordering again! The okonomiyaki is so nicely presented, the Bonito flakes were still moving, and it tasted amazing! The okonomi sauce was also a 10 out of 10!

The portion for yakisoba is a bit small given the price. There are only a few pieces of proteib
