To the long-awaited Sakabukuro-san. The inside of the restaurant was bustling with many customers. We enjoyed a sashimi platter, simmered conger eel, squid liver salad, grated nagaimo with seven spices, and salmon kamaboko as appetizers with cold draft beer. The blue perilla sour was also delicious. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I made a reservation for dinner during my Kyoto trip because it was so delicious last time. We arrived at 7:00 PM, and the restaurant was already full, so I'm glad I made a reservation. There was a small issue with our reserved seats this time, but they handled it properly and we had a great time until the end. The food was still delicious.

"Sakabukuro" is a popular seafood izakaya in Nishiin. I went there on a Wednesday and the place was constantly filled with customers. - Sakura shrimp and new onion tempura: The tempura was just the right size, crispy, and you could taste the sweetness of the onion. Delicious. - Assorted sashimi plate: Tuna, red snapper, sea bass, horse mackerel, and squid, all fresh and full of flavor. - Grilled dried squid: Delicious without any mistakes. - Kenken bonito tataki with leaf garlic and ponzu sauce: This bonito tataki is really delicious. It goes well with leaf garlic and sake. - Pork loin marinated in sansho and koji: Has a unique flavor that might be a matter of personal preference, but I find it delicious and enjoyable. - Quail egg simmered: Lately, I tend to order quail eggs whenever they are available. - Chicken Karaage: The crispy and light karaage is just right, especially when squeezed with lemon. - Grilled tuna collar: When you think of grilled collars, you often think of yellowtail or amberjack, but tuna is also delicious. It was as delicious as always. I will definitely come back again.

I am very satisfied! Reasonably priced and delicious! I used to live in Nishijin during my student days and visited for the first time in a long time to meet a friend. The staff are friendly and the food is delicious. The dishes come out quickly and I want to come back again. I would like to try the firefly squid tempura and the ramen for the finish again.

This was my second visit to this restaurant. Every time I come here, I am always satisfied with the delicious food. They offer Kyoto-style obanzai dishes, allowing you to enjoy a variety of small dishes. It is recommended for second visits or for women. I tried dessert for the first time and the hojicha ice cake was delicious.

The izakaya's lunch is very delicious. It's always crowded because of this. We come here not so much for lunch, but more for a midday drinking experience. The lunch dishes make great sake accompaniments. Today, I had autumn deer served warm. It was wonderful and very delicious. The mackerel tempura and salmon were also very tasty. Thank you for the feast.

An amazing restaurant with a wide selection of sake. The food is delicious too. I visited for lunch this day so I didn't have any sake, but the sashimi was so tasty that I left fully satisfied. #lunch #sashimi #sashimi set meal #great restaurant #Kyoto #Nishijin #Sakabukuro #Let's keep going even in the afternoon.

I love this shop! It's a great place for casual drinks and food. Among all the izakayas in Nishin, this place is our top pick. Their soy sauce marinated pork loin, squid liver butter, assorted sashimi, and bitter melon and shiitake mushroom dish are all delicious. The menu seems to be carefully crafted, and we love that every dish is so tasty, from the side dishes to the main courses.

Kyoto, Nishii, "Sakabukuro". It's always nice to have a place nearby where you can enjoy delicious Japanese food that goes well with sake. It's convenient to have such a restaurant close by after studying seal engraving in Nishii. It's just right for an old man's lunchtime sake. However, I don't visit that place every time. So, on this day, I went to "Sakabukuro". The neighboring office workers flock there in search of delicious and affordable lunches, so you have to be careful. The menu includes a daily special, which I decided to try. It seems perfect as a sake accompaniment. The meal includes flounder and eggplant tempura, sardine sashimi, three small side dishes, and homemade pickles. As for drinks, they have Heartland beer, which I love. The flounder tempura is crispy and delicious. Should I start with the beer or the food? I ponder while eating. The eggplant tempura is also tasty. The sardine sashimi is delicious too. The various small side dishes are perfect for enjoying with beer. With my current digestion, I don't need rice, but I'll have a little. The rice and pickles are also very tasty. Lunch menus at delicious izakayas are always appealing to sake drinkers. It's very good. It's very delicious. Thank you for the feast.

I finally got to visit the restaurant I was curious about. What I had on this day was: - Coppe crab - Shirako ponzu - Game meat - Ikura with grated daikon - Beef tendon and daikon simmered dish - Chinese cabbage and salted kelp salad - Conger eel as an appetizer Everything was delicious with careful flavors! The Coppe crab was in season and very tasty! The Shirako ponzu had firm texture and was great. I almost finished it all by myself, haha. It was my first time trying game meat, but it was delicious without any unique smell. It's not a cheap izakaya, but more on the expensive side compared to other izakayas around, but it's definitely a place you should visit! The entrance is hard to find underground, but both the service and the flavors were satisfying!

Sakabukuro in Nishii, Kyoto City, is a great place to enjoy a variety of fresh sashimi, including red snapper, horse mackerel, octopus, flathead fish, sea bream, beltfish, and yellowtail. They also offer a selection of Japanese sake, such as Bakuren from Yamagata, Suiryu from Nara, and Okushika from Osaka. You can choose between different sizes of sake servings for tasting. The half-size serving is a good option. The restaurant is known for its seafood dishes and sake selection, making it a great spot for lunch or dinner in Kyoto.

Kyoto, Nishii, Izakaya "Sakabukuro" offers a daily lunch special. Today, after studying seal engraving in Kyoto Nishii, I decided to have lunch with my friends as usual. The only difference was deciding where to go. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from, but I didn't want to go to the same place all the time. I wanted somewhere affordable and delicious. The dilemma of what to eat is endless. So, I decided to go to "Sakabukuro," which is close but feels far because it's on the other side of the main street with few crosswalks. I crossed the street and went downstairs where the restaurant is located. Although it's primarily an izakaya known for its unique selection of sake, they also offer a lunch menu that is both cheap and delicious. Today's special was fried horse mackerel, which I was craving. The dish looked delicious - crispy fried and piping hot, with the flavor of the horse mackerel spreading in my mouth. The side dishes of simmered hijiki seaweed, grated daikon with dried baby sardines, and potato salad added to the izakaya charm. We ordered the rice in a smaller portion, and it was just enough to satisfy us. Thank you for the meal.

Salarymen would also be delighted with this convenient and reasonably priced lunch option. Yesterday, I talked about going to see a seal engraving exhibition, but today I will share the story of when I came to Kyoto to study seal engraving. As expected, after the event, we went to eat. It's a common topic, and it's easy to imagine that we just had a meal afterwards. And that's exactly what happened. It was raining that day. Quite heavily, in fact. As usual, we had lunch with friends, and despite the suggestion to stay nearby, there was a strong preference to go a bit further to "Sakabukuro" located across Shijo Street. This stylish izakaya is located on the basement floor. While I have used it occasionally for drinking parties, the lunch here is very delicious and reasonably priced. Despite being in a somewhat inconspicuous location, the place is always full of local salarymen and young people. When we checked the daily lunch special, we found that there was simmered Pacific saury. This looks delicious for sure. We chatted about seal engraving while waiting, and the simmered Pacific saury looked really appetizing. While salt-grilled Pacific saury is common, simmered is less common. The small side dishes here are also very tasty. However, I focused my attention on the simmered Pacific saury. It had a rich layer of fat, and the moistness of the simmering was abundant. It was very delicious. The flesh was tender, soft, and had a good separation, with a modest sweet and savory taste. The portion was just right with the small side dishes. While the sashimi and assorted side dishes set and the pork and leek rice bowl also caught my eye, I'll try them next time. Thank you for the meal. After eating, my impression was that this place is popular for a quick lunch break during work, where you can come in and leave quickly, and it has a home-cooked feel but with a professional taste hidden behind it. It's easy to enjoy the variety of flavors, making lunch very enjoyable, and once you've tasted it, you'll be drawn to their izakaya in the evening as well. There are no disappointments, which is great.
