Kappazushi

Words can describe how wonderful we felt in this establishment. Staff was courageous and friendly! Sushi Chef (who's name we don't remember) made Us feel very welcome. Constantly talking to us about the food he made. All was so delicious!! My wife never had raw fish before and she loved it. I do wan...t to give a massive shout out to staff working there. You made our stay very much a highlight in these difficult times!!!

I was recommended this place by my hotel conierge (Hotel Kyoto Okura) and it didn't disappoint. Hide-san and his staff gave great service and English conversation. Beer was ice cold. Sake recomendations were very good (junmai-shu particularly). Sushi was high quality with mild serving of wasabi. Bes...t combination of quality/service for Sushi in Kyoto in my experience. Entrance and seating were ambient and everything was clean and orderly. Staff were exceptional - shout out to Hide and the young students who work very hard in the kitchen (the best tempura I've had) and as service staff.

Nice sushi in Pontocho area. High quality food, nice restaurant and good service. We had dinner in 4 people on the bar.

A true Japanese sushi experience (Sashimi and Nigiri - no rolls!) with a personal chef. Only the freshest fish and seafood. Only downside was that we could not see the chef's hands cutting the fist (an art-form in itself) due to the countertop

This is certainly one of the best sushi places we tried, and we tried many, including some that are higher rated on the Trip Advisor (and which therefore tend to be mobbed, while we were immediately seated in this one). The service was also very good.
