stars' sakesalon Goodwill

An oasis in the late afternoon in Gosho Minami. Enjoy sake and seasonal cuisine at stars' sakesalon.

December 08, 2023 open

The Gosho-minami area is located in the center of Kyoto, but has a calm atmosphere. Stars' Sakesalon (Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture), a restaurant where one can enjoy drinks and food from late afternoon, has opened there.
The name "Sakesalon" was chosen with the owner Noriko Hoshi's surname, "stars' sakesalon," as it can be used in a variety of ways, both as a tavern and as a bar. The name "stars' sakesalon" was taken from the owner Noriko Hoshi's last name.

Ms. Hoshi has worked at Japanese, Italian, and French restaurants in Tokyo and Kamakura, gaining a variety of food and beverage experience. She is originally from Miyagi Prefecture, but after the Corona disaster, she and her husband decided to move to Kyoto, a city with which she had no connection. At the end of last year, she opened the restaurant of her dreams.

Today's sashimi platter for 1,650 yen, directly from Kawabata Fresh Fish in Noto Peninsula, Ishikawa Prefecture. Fresh seasonal delicacies such as amaebi (sweet shrimp), bai clam, sunfish, and horse mackerel are directly sent to us on the same day they are caught and served as sashimi.

The marinated octopus and tomatoes with capers and dill (880 yen) is a refreshing dish that goes well with sake and a variety of other alcoholic beverages. This day, we recommend a glass of Akita Prefecture's Hinomaru Brewery's "Mansaku no Hana" (flower of mansaku) for 880 yen.

To accompany the genre-less cuisine that makes the most of their experience, they offer an extensive lineup of sake, including local sake from Kyoto, Shiga, Akita, and other regions, wine, whiskey, and more. It is truly an oasis for sake lovers. The dishes and glasses that add color to the meals are made by Kazumi Tsuji and Yoshihiro Nishiyama, glass artists from Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture. Enjoy a drink from noon in this cozy restaurant bathed in sunlight.
