Kyoto 餐厅

An amazing omakase dinner in Kyoto. An intimate six person counter experience watching the chef create magic. Every thing we tasted was out of this world. The presentation was exceptional. It was a treat to watch the knife work and plating over the two and a half hours we were there. Highly recommend!

Wij hebben hier een fantastisch diner gegeten. De typisch traditionele Japanse gerechten worden met zeer veel zorg voor jou ogen bereid. Veel uitleg bij wat je eet. De smaken zijn allemaal in harmonie. Alles was lekker en verser dan vers

The best meal we had in Japan. Incredibly well thought-out and perfectly prepared dishes that were balanced and delicious from start to finish. The staff were so accommodating and kind, using google translate to pass on their knowledge and interact with us. A traditional dining experience that I will never forget.

Very nice dinner experience. If you would like to try a japanese Micheline star restaurant in Gion, Kyoto. All ingredients are fresh and excellent service.

The food was sublime. Extremely friendly and caring service from our server. Private and Quiet atmosphere allowing us to immerse ourselves in the traditional Gion setting. Definitely worth another visit.

This was my first kaiseki experience, and it did not disappoint. I had a lunch reservation at the counter, which allowed me to observe the chefs assemble each dish with care and precision. Every course was beautifully presented and genuinely delicious. Some of the flavor combinations were unlike anything I had tasted before, making the meal feel special. The portion size for lunch was also surprisingly generous, and I left completely satisfied. The space itself is cozy and intimate, with a traditional feel. There are only 6 counter seats, and you remove your shoes at the entrance, which immediately sets the tone for an authentic and immersive experience. One thing worth noting for non-Japanese speakers: the service is conducted entirely in Japanese. It was not a barrier to enjoying the meal, but it was a shame not being able to ask questions about each dish or fully follow the conversations. Overall, Oryori Hayashi is a must-visit for anyone curious about kaiseki. I would love to return if given the chance — highly recommended!

Good food, excellent service.

Everything was amazing, service was outstanding can’t recommend this place enough. We got the 12 course meal and it was even better then expected

Easily one of my favorite meals in Japan! Do be aware that it’s an omakase, but everything was fantastic and very reasonably priced. The staff were incredibly friendly and spoke enough English to help understand the menu and what you’re eating. The head chef at the end also thanked us for coming as we left. A fun and unique experience that I would recommend to anyone visiting the area.

We had a wonderful time at Sushi Tempura Gion Iwai. The introductory dinner was delicious and we were well sated by the end of the evening. The two very friendly chefs were deft in their skills and, though the language barrier was there, we were able to find out what we were eating! These staff was also very friendly. One comment…. This restaurant was very difficult to find, especially as its name is not well marked, at least for those of us who do not speak Japanese. When we did find it—on the second floor of the building—we were still not sure we had the right place, again the language barrier. And until I gave them my confirmation papers, they were not sure about us either! All in all I very much recommend dining here.
