“Vegan friendly in Kyoto”
Fantastic! Vegan options and alcohol free options. Fast service, great vibe, excellent care! Genuinely better okonomiyaki than Osaka! Cute dragon ball Z decorations too!

“Tourist Restaurant - Look Elsewhere”
The food was "meh" at best. The okonomiyaki was covered with sweet goo sauce. The shrimp were overcooked. The edamame needed salt. The appetizer of plain tofu with fish flakes, ground ginger, and onion was fairly tasteless. It cost $50 for two people; it was one of our most expensive meals but one o...f the worst. The staff are friendly and welcoming. It's cleary a tourist restaurant. There were no locals eating there. I'm very unclear as to why it has a 5-star rating.

“Wonderful food cooked with style in front of us.”
Wonderful teppanyaki restaurant which we were lucky to get into as they are so popular. We booked ahead for following day and arrived after a long day's sightseeing to be greeted warmly by the owner and staff. I am a vegan and we had come here especially for the vegan deluxe okonomiyake, which was... well worth it. This meal comes from Hiroshima, which we had visited a few days before but I had not had the chance to try it as it is usually omelette-based. The version I got was packed with vegetables and mushrooms and was quite delicious. It was cooked in front of me by the chef, who was very friendly and made us feel at home. This was one of those meals which, had it not been so filling, I would have immediately ordered again. Other members of my party had various kinds of fish and seafood and one pizza - which is a variation on the Italian dish but which went down well - all cooked in front of us. As with almost all restaurants in Japan, the meal was extremely good value. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and would advise you to book on arrival to ensure you get a table as it is clearly very popular, with good reason.

“Wonderful family meal”
Great atmosphere and service. Great for vegetarians and very delicious. Had the set menu and very good value. Very small so a booking is essential

“Some of the best food we tried in Kyoto”
We liked this place so much we went 2 nights in a row. It’s small and if you don’t reserve in the busy season you’ll be disappointed. There’s 8 seats at the kitchen bar and a larger table on the side. It’s a real show to watch the chef. Everything is cooked in front of you. We really like the o...konomiyaki. We are vegetarians and there’s a good selection. It is not only excellent it has a great atmosphere. It’s also easy to strike a conversation with the other guests. If you’re in Kyoto keep this restaurant in mind. But make a reservation so you’re not disappointed
