Restaurantes em Eikan-dō Temple

Because it was lunch, and the actual price per person was over 500 RMB (not including the Klook booking fee), the ingredients used in the dishes were average (for example, the bowl dish used duck meatballs). What I liked most about this visit was the young woman who served us; she was lively, cheerful, and a little shy. When you didn't understand something, she would actively use a translation app on her phone to look it up and explain. Her hands were red from too much exposure to cold water, but she maintained perfect posture and etiquette in front of guests throughout. Honestly, you rarely see such a lovely young woman on the mainland. I'd come again just for her! For tourists eating kaiseki, I still recommend going at lunchtime. Firstly, dinner will be much more expensive, and you might encounter noisy guests who have had too much to drink. Secondly, eating too much at night can lead to indigestion. Thirdly, at night, it's dark and you can't see the garden scenery clearly. Behind the teahouse is the Kamo River, and the gurgling water is very pleasant. After the meal, the proprietress waited at the porch, and after seeing us to the door, she waited in the cold wind until we got on the bus, bowing to bid us farewell. This dedication to every table of guests is truly a microcosm of why Japanese kaiseki is worth experiencing.

Purchasing tickets and making payments are both very fast and convenient, saving a lot of time waiting in line on-site. This new type of ticket purchasing method is highly recommended.

It feels like a local restaurant. The portion sizes were more generous than expected, which was satisfying. Since it's an omakase featuring yuba and tofu, ingredients widely used in Kyoto, it might not be ideal for those looking for meat or seafood-centric menus. However, if you're hoping for a traditional culinary experience, I can recommend it. The service was also very friendly.

I had a reservation for 7 PM, but I arrived an hour early and was still able to get in smoothly. The restaurant's location is a bit inconspicuous, but the entire area is filled with high-end restaurants. The service quality is impeccable; it would be worth it even if it were a bit more expensive. Service: 10/10 Experience: 10/10

Excellent food, the quality of the food exceeded expectations, offering great value for money. This restaurant is a must-book. The service is top-notch; after our meal, the manager bowed to us as we left, treating us like regulars. Highly recommended.

My English isn't good, so I can't understand customer needs and communication is difficult. The food is edible, but the service attitude needs improvement, otherwise it's very unfriendly to foreign tourists.

The elegant ambiance, beautiful scenery, and attentive service from the hostess at this high-end Japanese restaurant were exceptional. The dishes were visually appealing and delicious. It was particularly rare and appreciated that they offered a private room with an independent restroom (with a bidet) even though I was dining alone. On the day of my visit, I arrived an hour and a half early, feeling tired. The server promptly took my luggage to the room, offered hot tea, and suggested I could wait there. However, I didn't want to miss the beautiful garden view outside. After the meal, I was escorted to the entrance, and we waved goodbye across the road as I boarded the Route 41 bus.
