It feels like a very good restaurant with an elegant environment. The size of the sushi is just right. Each one is delicious. Unknowingly, the whole family ate a lot! I like this restaurant very much and look forward to visiting here again!

感觉很好的一家餐厅，环境淡雅，寿司的大小刚刚好，每一款都很好吃，不知不觉全家吃了好多！很喜欢这家店，期待能再次光临这里！

【口味】日本最贵的料理就是怀石料理，步骤多菜品设计比较广【服务】日本服务员都是柜式服务，各种问候语【环境】榻榻米小包间，有些有前厅小院流水

[Taste] The most expensive Japanese cuisine is Kaiseki cuisine, which has many steps and a wide range of dishes
[Service] Japanese waiters all provide counter-style service with various greetings
[Environment] Tatami private rooms, some with front halls, courtyards and running water

很有当地特色的一家老字号~海鲜都是非常新鲜哦~口味偏清淡~不过桌子上有调味料。

An old brand with local characteristics. The seafood is very fresh. The taste is light, but there are seasonings on the table.

日本传统菜系出品，寿司做的很有品质，地瓜也很推荐，环境很棒，服务不错。

The sushi is of high quality and the sweet potato is also recommended. The environment is great and the service is good.

甜点很出名，不过却不是我的菜，整体来说属于很OK的餐厅，店名有点小拗口

The desserts are very famous, but they are not my cup of tea. Overall, it is a very OK restaurant. The name is a bit difficult to pronounce.

After shopping, I felt a little hungry, so I came to this Japanese restaurant in the nearby block. The Japanese karaage, salmon sashimi and salmon in this restaurant are all very good. I personally recommend ordering them. The price-performance ratio is also relatively high.

The environment is not very big, very simple. We were arranged to a small room on the right side of the entrance. There was a long table with only six seats. A chef behind the long table prepared delicious food for us on the spot. What impressed me most was that he used a delicate, original dark green bamboo tube to serve each guest a small glass of sake. At that time, I thought, bamboo can be seen everywhere in China, but why can&#39;t we use it and transform it into such a unique wine container? The Japanese ability to make good use of natural resources and enhance beautification is really worth learning from. Well, when it comes to food, in fact, his dishes are all relatively common ingredients. There is no particularly amazing dish, but the production is more exquisite. In this meal, I was most impressed by the rice, except for the bamboo wine tube. The rice was cooked by hand in a small pot, not the electric rice cooker that Chinese people love. He specially showed us his rice cooker before serving us the rice. The taste was really first-class and very delicious. When eating in Japan, usually all dishes are put away after they are served one by one, and the last dish is a portion of pickles with rice. I ordered the matcha set meal, which is 150 yuan more than the classic set meal, because it is said that matcha desserts are more famous in Kyoto, but the taste is really very ordinary. A small cup of green matcha and a small cake cost only 150 yuan, which is really not worth it. It is recommended not to order the matcha set meal.

An absolutely perfect meal in a beautiful setting. This restaurant is in a quiet area of ​​Gion and can be easily missed as it has a quirky and unassuming entrance. We had a private room but you can also sit at the counter where you can watch the chefs at work. Every dish was beautifully presented and incredible.

No. 8 of Fine Dining  in Kyoto

Each dish was prepared in the open kitchen and served to us immediately so was fresh, hot and delicious. The service was also very attentive. Highly, highly recommended.

No. 19 of Fine Dining  in Kyoto

Authentic Japanese cuisine and elegant traditional environment but not too fresh, service is OK but not up to Michelin standards in Europe and America. After eating, I always feel that it is not worth it.

The decoration and dishes of the restaurant are as poetic as their names. It is a very good restaurant with an elegant environment! The overall dining experience is very good. Although the price is not cheap, it is worth it.
