The restaurant is very high-end. Both the environment and the design of the dishes are eye-catching. However, Lai had to go through many reservations before finally getting a seat. Although the price is not cheap, it is also an experience.

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.

2026  Asia 100 - Fine Dining 

Record of the late autumn trip to Kansai in November 2019~
I went to make a reservation at Kikunoi on the first day in Kyoto, but the main store was not available on the date I wanted, so I had to book a branch.
After visiting Kiyomizu Temple, I walked all the way to Kikunoi and arrived on time at 5 o&#39;clock as scheduled. Each guest who made a reservation has a nameplate placed on the corresponding seat, which is full of ritual.
There is a menu for today, but it is not easy to understand. The chef will serve one dish after another, and we will taste them one by one. The chef will also tell you the key points of eating each dish in simple English. Kaiseki cuisine is really about service, atmosphere and ceremony.
To be honest, it is really not very delicious. I just remember that the crab and tuna are delicious. Other soups, grilled food, parent-child meals, etc. are all very ordinary. In the end, if the rice is not finished, they will make it into rice balls for guests to take away and eat.
The dining experience is good, but the taste is really not good in Japan. I ate at any restaurant in Hokkaido, and it tastes better than this.

No. 18 of Fine Dining  in Kyoto

Kaiseki cuisine was originally a meal served by the host to the guests during the Japanese tea ceremony. However, it is now not limited to the tea ceremony and has become a common high-end cuisine in Japan. &quot;Kaiseki&quot; means to be like a saint wearing a coarse cloth but holding a jade in his heart. Its form is &quot;one soup and three dishes&quot; (or one soup and two dishes).

Kyoto&#39;s stunning Michelin restaurant | TAKAYAMA
When I was making a travel guide, I found that all the Michelin restaurants I wanted to eat in Tokyo were fully booked
But there are still many choices in Kyoto. I found this restaurant and was attracted by the environment and beautiful dishes, so I quickly made an appointment
It only has a seat in front of the board and only accepts 12 people a night
There are more than 20 dishes, which are really very rich. Each one is very beautiful, and the champagne and sparkling juice are very delicious
The owner and service staff will chat with the guests all the time. The attitude is very good and the emotional value is very high
Although it is written in the reservation instructions that portraits are not allowed for fear of affecting other diners, you can actually wait until the end of the meal to take pictures
The set menu is 28,000JPY per person

One of the Top Fine Dining  in Kyoto

🍽️✨ &ldquo;Mashiro &ndash; A Night of Delicacy in the Heart of Kyoto&rdquo;

When it comes to Japanese food that is both delicate, artistic, and provides an experience that goes beyond taste &mdash; Mashiro (真白) is one of those experiences.

This restaurant is a modern Japanese course that uses seasonal ingredients to weave them together like poetry. The first dish that was served was raw hamachi fish in green ponzu sauce, contrasting with salmon roe and small, colorful flowers. The light aroma was a great appetizer.

The next dish was seared wagyu beef with a soft, tender outside, served with a fragrant sauce and fried food in a stylish molecular design. It was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and had a full, smooth, meaty aroma.

The impression did not end there&hellip; there was a flower salad with cheese and fresh local vegetables, a clear soup with crispy fried shrimp, and a variety of sashimi beautifully arranged on the plate, with sauce poured in a pattern like a painting on a canvas.

Finally, there was a dessert that was both delicious and delicate: sweet vanilla ice cream served on fresh strawberries, topped with light cream, and decorated with thin sugar sheets cut into a leaf-like pattern. Served on a shiny black plate, beautifully contrasting

💬 The atmosphere of the restaurant is quiet, simple, luxurious, but comfortable to sit in. The chef can speak English. The staff pays attention to every detail.
💴 The course price is around &yen;10,000&ndash;15,000, but I must say&hellip; it&rsquo;s worth every yen.

For those who love a fine dining experience that is not only &ldquo;delicious&rdquo; but &ldquo;unforgettable&rdquo;, Mashiro is a restaurant that you should visit at least once in your life. おいしい😋

餐厅很高档，无论环境还是菜品的设计，都是让人眼前一亮，不过莱这里之前也经历了很多次订位置，才最终订到，价格虽然不便宜，但是也是一次经历

装修很高大上的一家日料店，菜品摆盘都很精致。

This is a Japanese restaurant with very high-end decoration and the dishes are very exquisitely presented.

The per capita cost is relatively high in this restaurant, and the utensils used are also very exquisite. The dishes are pleasing to the eye.

到京都一定要體驗一下懷石料理，因為沒預訂到露庵菊乃井只能轉而訂他家。店鋪在一條小巷裡外觀蠻古樸，進店後有一排板前座，確認預約大將熱情地接待了我們，8個人被安排在帶庭院景觀的包間，環境很雅緻不過西式的座椅有點缺乏意境。
落座後送上麥茶、熱毛巾，預訂的是主廚推薦套餐20790元，另加10%服務費。
當天餐酒是清酒淺淺的一盞蓋口感略衝。從酒肴開始到甜點結束共有十品菜餚，他家的菜品以魚類為主比較清淡一些，手法以刺身、燒物、蒸煮、湯羹等體現，拼盤做了楓葉季的裝飾，食材也運用了秋天的美味，但有湊數之嫌。
整體菜點除了刺身三品、金槍魚大腹較為新鮮質高外，其他雖精緻但味道不夠驚艷，米其林一星餐廳略失所望。
套餐裡的黃豆燜飯很香，剩下米飯還可以做飯團帶走，因為我們吃得很飽拒絕了店員的好意。用完後大廚站在門口鞠躬目送我們遠去。
