This intimate spot is one of the best bang-for-your-buck omakase sushi lunches in Kyoto.

Restaurant Details

Thirteen quiet counter-seats make up Hiyoko Sushi's intimate interior, and there is nothing fussy at this family-run sushi establishment. Not that it needs to.


Occupying the ground floor of a modest building in Nishikiomiyacho, Hiyoko Sushi is all about quality and flavor, anchored by an original blend of vinegar used to coat their rice. Their 10-piece omakase set is the perfect way to enjoy some of Kyoto's best, classic sushi the way locals do, set at a more affordable price. The store features fish that are fresh and local, like the yellowtail collar, mackerel and the classic fatty tuna.


The menu expands from sushi offerings to specialty dishes and sashimi. During winter, plates carrying seared pufferfish meat constantly frequently make their way from the counter, served in a special ponzu sauce. The sashimi platter of marinated mackerel and seabream gets a strong kick from the wasabi. Surprisingly, the chawanmushi emerges as a crowd favorite.


Sure, the decor may not stand out (the TV across the counter is constantly humming; it feels like you’re right in the chef’s home kitchen), but what it lacks in palatial appearance, it makes up for with warm service and a sincere effort to connect with customers. These days, you’ll often find the chef earnestly trying to converse with his international guests in English.


※ Reservation is recommended as Hiyoko Sushi can get busy during peak lunch and dinner hours.
