Gaijin by Chef Paul Virant is Chicago’s first okonomiyaki restaurant, offering both Hiroshima and Osaka styles of the savory Japanese pancake. A self-described gaijin, or “outsider” in Japanese, Vira…
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!

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.

The item listed as marinated short rib was sliced, tough steak, hard to chew and not from the short rib. I ordered a vegetable dish and they substituted a fried mushroom ball that was utterly tasteless unless drowned in sauce. Very disappointing, especially for the price

Their donuts are so amazing and the perfect option for people that can't eat gluten! Seriously my favorite in the city.

I had a lunch special and the portions are crazy small for $20 or so. Especially with only 4 pieces of shrimp and 3 munchkins.
