A Japanese food and miscellaneous goods shop based on the concept of "clothing, food and shelter." The signboard menu is "Teori Sushi" where you can eat seasonal obanzai, sashimi, condiments, etc. centered on Kyoto vegetables in a style similar to hand-rolled sushi. The moment a plate with about 50 kinds of ingredients is brought to you, you will definitely be excited by its beauty.
In the cozy space of a townhouse, you can taste rare Kyoto Kuroge Wagyu beef that is rarely seen in the market. For lunch, we recommend the "Gion set". You can enjoy plenty of high-quality Kyoto wagyu beef, including 8 kinds of side dishes using meat, and you will be satisfied with the appearance and taste.
A casual-style Japanese restaurant attached to a specialty store that sells and repairs leather bags. A veteran chef with more than 20 years of experience in Japanese cuisine is particular about the season and offers the most delicious food in the best condition. The most popular lunch item is the "Lunch 3 Kinds of Rice Bowl". Even if you eat 3 bowls, you will be happy that it is a size that is easy to eat, about 1 bowl.
A small restaurant with a white curtain facing the street. At the counter where you can feel the warmth of wood, the owner has 16 years of cooking experience. The "Hiru Gozen", which has 8 types of small plates, has unlimited refills of earthenware pot rice. You can enjoy the taste of dashi stock and the dishes sprinkled with seasonal ingredients.
At [Zuke x Koji Haccomachi], which was born from the desire to "live a rich life through fermentation," you can enjoy a set meal using fermented ingredients for all dishes. Dishes served in colorful small bowls are beautiful to look at, and the meat, fish, and vegetables are perfectly balanced in terms of nutrition.
A pickled vegetable shop operated by [Isoya Group] in a house in Karasuma Nanajo Nishi. You can enjoy Kyoto's seasonal vegetables marinated in oil, miso, etc. with free ideas without being bound by the technique of Kyoto pickles. "Isoism no Hiru Gohan" is a plate with 12 kinds of pickled vegetables.
The signboard menu of [Ushiya Yohei], which was introduced on TV, is the "Sukiyaki-ju and Obanzai Lunch", which is made by slowly soaking the meat so big that it sticks out of the box. If you mix the soft meat with the egg yolk and stuff it with rice, you will definitely be satisfied with your stomach and heart.
In the store of [Creative Cuisine Wa], which offers creative cuisine that combines Chinese with a Japanese base, there are many exciting tricks such as chopstick rests in the shape of animals and sweets and origami menus. The dishes, such as obanzai made with seasonal Kyoto vegetables and crispy spring rolls, are all made with care. Check out the full lineup of monthly lunches that will make you wonder which one to eat.
At Anji Karasuma Rokkaku, you can enjoy fresh fish procured that day and delivered directly from the production area. The colorful sashimi is the main dish on the sashimi set, which comes with plump grilled fish and miso soup made with offal. I am happy to be able to taste delicious fish in Kyoto.
A long-established ochazuke restaurant [Marutamachi Junidanya] that has been in business since the Taisho period. The original Ochazuke Suzushiro has a simple menu, but each item is carefully made one by one. Among them, the dashimaki is baked with bonito flakes from Makurazaki and ichiban dashi made with Rishiri kelp. In addition, "Mizuna" (2040 yen), which is a seasonal dish, is also recommended.
A sister restaurant of [Taicha Fukuno] developed by Nagoya's Japanese restaurant [Nosawa]. You can enjoy the combination of matured Ehime sea bream Taiichiro-kun and secret sesame sauce. First of all, the rice and sea bream taste are simple, and then the sea bream minced with real Japanese pepper is added. Finally, I would like to finish with sea bream chazuke with plenty of hojicha.
[Temari sushi and Japanese tea Soda] offers a rare set of temari sushi and Japanese tea at lunchtime. In addition to seasonal seafood, the sushi toppings include vegetables, and the shari is kept small to reduce carbohydrates. The seasoning is also health-conscious, such as refraining from salt as much as possible. Enjoy carefully brewed Japanese tea one cup at a time and gorgeous temari sushi.
A Kyomachiya store that was renovated from a kimono shop. In addition to the counter and table seats, you can enjoy your meal in the garden space inside the store. Nishiki Gozen Makunouchi style is very satisfying with obanzai and dessert. The charcoal-grilled fish and tempura change daily, so there's always something to look forward to when you visit.
A restaurant where you can enjoy local chicken dishes and Japanese sake that are unique to Kyoto in a space that was renovated from a townhouse built 70 years ago. For lunch, you can casually enjoy the delicacies of Kyoto, such as the ``Daily Obanzai Set'' where you can enjoy a variety of side dishes using vegetables from contracted farmers, and the ``Chisou Inaseya Set'', which is a colorful set of 7 dishes. .
Sake Tomeshi Nishiki Shokudo is an izakaya where you can enjoy good food and a nostalgic atmosphere, based on the concept of a popular restaurant or bar full of the Showa era. There are more than 10 types of lunch, including daily specials.
At [Kappo Nagi] in Karasuma Nishiki-koji, where the owner has been a chef for over 40 years, you can enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine at a reasonable price. The daily lunch set includes a combination of sweet potatoes and carrots cooked together, pickles, broccoli tossed with rice, and a dessert of strawberries and bracken powder. The bargain green tea soba set is also very popular.
At [Yumedokoro Fisherman's Meshi Zagoya], which is famous for its lunches with lines, you can enjoy luxurious fish dishes at reasonable prices. The “luxury meal” served on a single plate is a row of rice bowls made with fresh fish and side dishes. Pour beaten egg with soy sauce and wasabi on top of the bowl, and finish off by pouring dashi stock to enjoy as ochazuke.
A popular restaurant known for its straw-grilled Tosa specialty, which is grilled over a flame of straw. The owner, who is from Kochi Prefecture, seared Kochi ingredients into a fragrant dish in the store. At lunchtime, they serve tataki set meals at a reasonable price of 1,500 yen. Including seared bonito, sashimi, tempura, sushi, etc., with side dishes and miso soup.
