Restaurants in Kitano Tenmangu Shrine

if this review was a movie I’d call it 300 Ways to Cook Tofu! And it would be a hit! Don’t miss this movie guys!

Excellent food, awesome ambience and beautiful presentation. It’s a must do experience although a little expensive compared to other such lunch around Kyoto.

Every dish was delicious, and the ingredients and presentation were exquisite. Overall, I was very satisfied with the meal. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the service was very attentive. The dishes were served faster than expected, so there wasn't a long wait between courses. The overall dining atmosphere was very comfortable, making it an excellent kaiseki experience.

When visiting Kyoto, you must try the local tofu dishes. The staff were very friendly and polite, and the restaurant's garden scenery and architecture were also beautiful. Being able to sit down and enjoy a meal in such a lovely environment, away from the noisy streets of Ninen-zaka, was a wonderful experience in itself. I was particularly impressed by the miso-grilled tofu; the green sauce on top paired perfectly with the tofu. The tofu hot pot itself had no extra seasoning, and the broth was simply a piece of kombu. While it allowed me to savor the natural flavor of the tofu, it was a bit too bland for my personal taste. I hope the restaurant can introduce more set menus with various cooking methods to enhance the dining experience.😌

The meat are very good for BBQ with their salted and sauced texture. The restaurant also provide free flow of drinks and vegetable!

Art! The chef was masterful. The presentation of each dish was beautiful. The staff were professional and sweet. My fellow diners were friendly and kind. It was a special evening that I will not soon forget.

A yummy and healthy meal enjoyed by local Japanese and tourists! Ryokan style restaurant with river view while enjoying the meal!
