About

Mithila is a modest Indian restaurant on the second floor near Dotonbori, known for its hearty naan bread and flavorful curries like dal makhni and aloo gobhi. The venue has a mostly vegetarian menu with some vegan adaptations made upon request; the owner humorously ensures vegan diners avoid dairy by very clear communication. Prices sit in the moderate range, and while some reviewers noted the ambiance as dated and service as polite but reserved, the food quality consistently meets expectations for lunch or dinner near central Osaka.
