PREMIUM ROBATA SANDA
Robatayaki (Charcoal-grill)
A premium robatayaki and straw-grilled dining experience in the heart of Kyoto, where traditional techniques meet dramatic live fire cooking.
Restaurant Details
Located in Kyoto’s vibrant Shijo Kawaramachi district, PREMIUM ROBATA SANDA offers a bold reimagining of traditional Japanese cuisine. Specializing in robatayaki (fireside grilling) and warayaki (straw-grilling), this refined dining destination blends time-honored culinary craftsmanship with an unforgettable live cooking performance.
At the heart of the experience is the restaurant’s signature dish: Katsuo no Tataki. Bonito is expertly seared over roaring straw flames, locking in rich umami beneath a smoky, crispy exterior while keeping the inside perfectly rare. Each bite is enhanced by house-made ponzu and seasonal condiments, designed to complement the fish’s natural depth of flavor. This iconic dish is available both à la carte and as part of the seasonal course menu — an essential order for first-time guests.
Inside, PREMIUM ROBATA SANDA envelops diners in a chic, minimalist space where black tones and soft lighting create an intimate, modern atmosphere. At the counter, you’ll witness flames leap into the air as chefs hand off dishes with oversized wooden paddles, adding a theatrical flair to every meal. Meanwhile, the sleek table seating provides a more tranquil backdrop, ideal for business dinners, romantic evenings, or entertaining visitors from abroad.
From the flicker of fire to the aroma of sizzling ingredients, every detail is designed to immerse you in a multisensory journey through Japanese cuisine. Whether celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in exceptional food, PREMIUM ROBATA SANDA promises an elevated, one-of-a-kind dining experience.
