Food quality in department store

On our last day in Japan, we intend to go to Abeno Harukas Kintetsu department store. Since we'll only have few hours before leaving to airport, dining in department store would save us a lot of time. The only thing I'm worried about is the food quality of department store restaurant. I'm not expecting it to be fantastic but hoping to be above average. Would that be too much to ask for? I'm thinking shabu shabu for the menu and please tell me if that's a good choice.
Thank you!

The food at Abeno Harukas is generally of high quality. The prices at department stores are generally medium, but as a brandnew flagship, Abeno Harukas tends to be a little bit on the more expensive side. Shabu-shabu restaurants in general tend to be on the more expensive side. Quite a few restaurants in these modern complexes come with a sterile atmosphere which may or may not be appreciated depending on personal preference. Here is the restaurant list: https://abenoharukas.d-kintetsu.co.jp/special/foreign/shoplist/index.h...

So I'll first look at the catalog displayed outside the restaurant and decide whether or not to go. We don't wanna spend lavishly for lunch. I found one shabu shabu/sukiyaki restaurant near Namba station so I'll rather go there if the price is ridiculous in Abeno Harukas.
Thank you Uji :D

Got it! 2000 yen is perfectly fine. I'll see the catalog when I visit there then decide :)
Thank you so much!

In general, if you're stuck for somewhere to eat, or if you just can't be bothered to trawl the neighbouring streets or can't decide what you want, then the top floors of malls, department stores, and large train stations are, imho, fantastically useful places.
There's generally a reasonable variety of food types and price ranges, and the quality is generally good.
Depending on the place you want to eat at, you might have to wait to get a table, but other than that they're a great fallback option.
