What other travelers are saying about Universal City Walk Osaka

This I think is the best Universal Citywalk there is! So much food variety, from upmarket to cheap street food type stalls, from Western style to traditional Japanese style food, it’s all here! Traditional Ōsaka octopus balls - they have a mini food market with all different vendors! Hard Rock is here of course, but quite expensive. Starbucks, McDonalds, Shake Shack - the Shake Shack burger was fantastic! Cafe 109 is a bit of a blend of cultures - Universal Gift Shops of course too!

Feels a little like Orlando’s & LA’s but smaller. Restaurants on the second floor and convenience store right outside the metro station. Restaurants ranging from Ramen to Starbucks to Takoyakis and even bubble tea stores are available. There’s a huge GAP outlet with customization service available right at the entrance area as well. If you’re leaving at closing time for the park, the train and station will be very packed and crowded. CityWalk’s pretty nice in the night with all the lights. Nothing too fancy or noteworthy.

Doesn't need a definition for what it is. A nice big complex across the road from Universal studios. Got lots of shops selling stuffed toys and restaurants with tasty cuisines from all corners of the world. You may not get time to visit Universal Citywalk after an entire day at Universal Studios. The place is more appealing during the night and if you're a tourist in Osaka, a smarter way to do it would be to visit Osaka aquarium in the late afternoon and take the 6 pm ferry from Kaiyukan to Universal Citywalk which is only 10 mins and arrive just in time for how visually delightful it is after darkness kicks in spend a couple of hours and call it a day

A pretty fun city walk with a lot of shops and restaurants. It’s not really crowded on a weekday afternoon. You can enjoy food and shopping here even without going to universal studios. Easy to access from the train station. A good place to go with the whole family.
