“Hole in the wall with great food”
“Best steak house”
First time in Kyoto and stopped at this wonderful restaurant. We have been in Japan on vacation for the past 10 days and trip beef in Tokyo and Osaka. This place was by far the best steak house. Kazuki our waiter was amazing. He was English speaking and a very kind gentleman. I recommend this p...lace to who ever visits Kyoto!!!

“Great Tappanyaki in Gion”
Small teppanyaki restaurant near Gion district. We went for our wedding anniversary. The restaurant only has 8 seats. However, we were the only two people there for the 6:30 PM seating. Service was attentive. MUST have a reservation. Food was excellent.

“Very good Teppanyaki in Gion, Kyoto”
A small Teppanyaki restaurant in the heart of Gion, with only 9 seats (a table for 4 and a table for 5). Food is delicious and very well prepared. They offer a couple of menus (only meat or meat and seafood). A very nice experience and worth the money. Menu is about 12,000 yen per person, with drink... and some extra you can reach 14k or 15k, or more if you drink wine. If you are in Kyoto, don’t miss it.

“Kicked out by the manager in a rude and shocking way”
Two days ago, on Wednesday 28 August at 21h00, I entered this restaurant to ask if they had availability for dinner, and while waiting for someone to welcome me, I used their restroom. When out of the restroom, I was “welcomed” by the restaurant manager (dressed in white as a cook) who immediately s...tarted yelling at me and ordered me to leave in an incredibly rude way — by shouting “out!! out!!” and physically opening the main door to send me out. When I resisted explaining that I had come to have dinner, from far away and based on an experience l had there years before, he simply kept yelling, asked me if I had a reservation, said it was “reservation only” and started shouting in an even more aggressive, surreal way: “out! out!! OUT!!”. To put this in context: I was dressed in a business suit (dark blue trousers / white shirt) and well groomed, so there was no reason to even remotely justify anything similar. It was totally shocking and I think it’s important to share this experience. It was disgraceful for the image of this restaurant and more in general of the Japanese way to deal with non-Japanese customers.
