Near Umeda there's a hall called Lin's that I used to go to when I visited Osaka. It's not the greatest but it's cheap and the have 10 brunswick tables. The cloth is beige though...
Here's a map and a link to their homepage(in japanese)

A lot of halls have disappeared especially in kansai, but the Tokyo scene is still pretty lively so let me know if you ever come out to the Tokyo area let me know and I can show you around the tournament trail.

I couldn't help you with Osaka, but if you ever end up in Tohoku, I can tell you where to go.
