Top-notch Japanese teppanyaki, unparalleled scenery, and just the right service are really worth it! For YASAKA, I can fly to Kyoto again just to have a meal at YASAKA. You can make an online reservation in advance. The chef and waiter speak English very well. During the meal, the chef will introduce the ingredients, condiments, and recommended dipping sauces for each dish to you. By the way, you can chat about traveling, so you won&rsquo;t be lonely. The sommelier will also remind you to take a photo of the wine bottle so that you know which one you like.

顶级的日式铁板烧，无与伦比的风景，恰到好处的服务，真的是太值了！为了YASAKA，我可以再飞一次京都，只为在YASAKA吃顿饭。可以提前在线预约好套餐。厨师和服务员的英文都很好，用餐时厨师会为你介绍每道菜的食材、配料、以及推荐的蘸料吃法，顺便聊聊旅行，一个人也不会孤单啊。侍酒师还会贴心提醒你给酒瓶拍个照，知道自己喜欢哪一瓶。

景色无可挑剔，可以俯瞰八坂宝塔。最好预订下午 5 点至 6 点的时段，这样您就可以一边用餐一边欣赏日落。餐厅的每一个细节都非常周到，你可以看出厨师们对他们的工作感到自豪。

The view is impeccable, overlooking the Yasaka Pagoda. It&#39;s best to book a time slot between 5pm and 6pm so you can watch the sunset while dining. Every detail of the restaurant is very thoughtful and you can tell the chefs take pride in their work.

因为5:30差不多日落 刚好可以欣赏不停的美景 一餐饭差不多两个半小时 服务周到 味蕾冲击

Because the sunset is around 5:30, I can enjoy the beautiful scenery. The meal takes about two and a half hours. The service is thoughtful and the taste buds are shocked.

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.

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!

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.
