Griddle your own Kansai-style okonomiyaki and downtown Tokyo monjayaki, then let the kitchen send out premium sashimi, hand-rolled sushi, kara-age and robata. Honest, generous izakaya cooking in a warm, buzzing room at Waterfront Plaza.

Our Story
Since 2000, Nanjya Monjya has been one of Singapore's first casual izakaya — a family-run room on the waterfront at Havelock, where the teppan tables sizzle late into the night and the menu rewards curiosity.
We took our cue from the bustling food streets of Osaka, where laughter, sizzling grills and shared plates bring people together. The heart of it is the griddle — Kansai okonomiyaki and Tokyo-style monjayaki you mix, cook and share yourself, from a bowl of fresh ingredients and more than twenty flavours to choose from.
Pull up to the lively chef's counter or settle at a griddle-fitted table, and let the kitchen send out premium sashimi cut to order, crisp kara-age and robata favourites. More than 25 years on, we're still a happy home for the Japanese community and locals alike — warm service, generous plates and a view of the water.

心得 · What we value
Three quiet obsessions
The Teppan
A hot griddle at your table — you cook, flip and share. Okonomiyaki and monjayaki, the way it's meant to be.
Freshness
Seafood from the market, produce by the season. If it isn't at its peak, it isn't on the board.
Welcome
An izakaya is a second living room. We pour generously and remember your name.
