On November 11, 2022 (Friday), I visited a well-known Western-style restaurant that was established around 1960-1963 (exact founding date is unknown). The restaurant is famous for its long lines even during lunchtime on weekdays. I first learned about this place from my daughter a year ago and visited for the second time after a year. The restaurant is located about 300 meters east of Kitaoji Station on the Kyoto Municipal Subway Karasuma Line, a 5-minute walk away. When I arrived at exactly 7:00 PM, there were 4 customers waiting outside (and 4 more customers behind them), and I was lucky to be seated inside as soon as two seats at the counter became available. I chose the A Set this time, which includes shrimp, fish, and chicken steak, while my daughter, who has a big appetite, ordered the B Set that I had last time. The condiments on the table included Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, salt (the restaurant's original dressing was not available). Here is a description of the dishes we enjoyed: Shrimp Fry: Large shrimp with opened meat fried in a crispy batter, served with tartar sauce and lemon. The shrimp fry had a crispy texture and a delicious taste. White Fish Fry: Two pieces of white fish, breaded and fried, served with lemon juice and tartar sauce. The fish was also crispy and tasty. Chicken Steak: A large chicken thigh with skin, sautéed in a sweet soy sauce-based glaze, a unique blend of Japanese and Western flavors. It was flavorful and not greasy, providing a satisfying taste and texture. Side Salad: Chopped cabbage with red paprika, purple onion, and tomato. It was a refreshing side dish. Rice and Miso Soup: Instead of a Western-style soup, we had miso soup, which was a comforting addition to the meal. My daughter found the B Set to be too much food, so I happily helped her finish the hamburger and cutlet leftovers. I look forward to trying the C Set (steak and cheeseburger) on my next visit. It was a delightful evening in Kyoto, enjoying a satisfying dinner with my daughter.

I visited the restaurant around 11:50 am on a regular day. There were about 15 people waiting in line. While waiting, I was given a menu. I ordered the A Mix (shrimp and hamburger) for 1870 yen. I was able to enter the restaurant around 12:30 pm. I waited for about 10 minutes after entering. But it was worth the wait because the food was delicious. The hamburger was fluffy and tasty. The hamburger sauce had a ketchup flavor. I think it would be even more delicious with a demi-glace sauce. The shrimp was big and satisfying to eat. I'm glad I came all the way here. I was very satisfied.

I visited around 7:30 pm on a weekday. The restaurant was relatively empty, probably because it had been pouring rain earlier. I ordered the A Mix (a set with shrimp fry and hamburger). I was surprised by the size of the shrimp fry! It wasn't just large because of the breading; the shrimp itself was plump and big. The "something Mix" had all shrimp fry, which seems to be their specialty. The hamburger was also delicious. The staff had a nice atmosphere, and although it was a bit pricey, I would definitely want to come back again!

Lunch visit on a holiday ^-^ It's a well-known old Western-style restaurant in Kyoto! A classic place indeed ^_^ There were about 8 people waiting in line, but after about 10 minutes of looking at the menu, we were seated. The interior of the restaurant has a Showa era coffee shop vibe, which is very calming. The Hamburg steak with rice and miso soup for ¥1320 arrived, and it looked perfect. The round Hamburg steak with a slightly ketchup-heavy sauce somehow brings back a nostalgic Showa era feeling. The meat was tender and juicy, very satisfying. And of course, it had a sunny-side-up egg on top! It's the kind of dish that a mischievous kid would love to dig into! It had been a while since I had Western-style food, so I felt fulfilled. Looking around the restaurant, I noticed that the Worcestershire sauce brands on the tables were different for each table. The tables next to me had S&B and KAGOME, but my table had a different one. It made me feel like I got lucky, and my excitement rose. Next time, I'll try the set with shrimp fry on a more special occasion. Thank you for the meal! ^_^

I hadn't visited this place in a while because there was always a long line, but this time it was not as crowded. Although the prices had gone up a bit, the taste and portion size remained the same, and I was very satisfied. It was nice to be able to enjoy my meal without the usual lunchtime rush.

I visited this restaurant known for its Western-style hamburg steak. I ordered the set with hamburg steak, shrimp fry, and pork cutlet. The hamburg steak had a slightly sweet tomato sauce that was simple yet appealing to everyone. The meat itself was flavorful, with a smooth texture that made it easy to enjoy. It seemed more focused on the combination with the sauce rather than savoring the meat's natural flavor. It was very delicious and went well with rice. It felt like the pinnacle of Western-style hamburg steaks at this restaurant. The shrimp fry was a decent size and had a good shrimp flavor. However, compared to the hamburg steak, the shrimp fry and pork cutlet were just average in terms of taste.

B Mix Ebi Fry & Tonkatsu for 1,870 yen. Extra large rice for 100 yen. Coffee after the meal for 200 yen. The restaurant was bustling, but we were seated at a four-person table and were able to enjoy our meal at a leisurely pace. Even though I was dining alone... I appreciated it. The miso soup had fried tofu that was sweet like udon toppings. The tonkatsu had a loose coating and couldn't quite compete with specialty shops. The ebi fry was the type where the shrimp is split open and it was huge. It was packed full and satisfying to eat. I prefer my ebi fry with soy sauce, and they kindly provided it when I asked. The staff frequently came to refill our water, showing that they care about the customers. This is a sign of a good restaurant. The coffee was strong, just how I like it. The cups and saucers were cute. Although the prices are a bit high, it's a place I would want to visit again.

I went to Kyoto with a friend who lives there during the Bon holidays. I had planned to eat shrimp pilaf before going, but all the dishes looked so delicious that I couldn't decide. Of course, the shrimp pilaf was outstandingly delicious. I live in Aichi, but I think it's totally worth going to Kyoto to eat this. I definitely want to go again.

Service lunch with shrimp fry (A lunch) for 1,200 yen. It was past 12 o'clock on Wednesday and I finished work in the Kamigamo area earlier than planned, so I decided to go to Segawa-san's with the expectation of a line. As I passed by the front of the restaurant, there was no line! I parked in the parking lot next to it and went inside. The counter was full, so I was seated at a table. The menu was a cute wooden menu with various options. I decided to go with the daily special service lunch. The menu changes depending on the day: Tuesday - hamburger, Wednesday - chicken cutlet, Thursday - fish fry, Friday - pork cutlet, each priced at 880 yen. Adding shrimp fry makes it 1,200 yen. I also ordered the shrimp fry. After waiting for about 10 minutes, a friendly female staff member brought me water and the food. The atmosphere of the restaurant was stylish with a country-style decor. The meal consisted of rice, miso soup, a large plate with chicken cutlet, shrimp fry, and salad. The chicken cutlet was large and the shrimp fry was thick. The chicken cutlet had a thin crispy coating with tender chicken meat, and the ketchup sauce added a nice touch of acidity. The shrimp fry had a thick crispy coating and was delicious with the tartar sauce. The rice was satisfying, and I was full by the end of the meal. The miso soup contained fried tofu, wheat gluten, seaweed, and a little green onion. It was decent but not exceptional. I added Worcestershire sauce from the table to the chicken cutlet for some extra flavor, and it was delicious. The restaurant seemed to be popular among elderly customers and was a beloved local Western-style eatery.

On a hot summer day in July, we visited a popular Western-style restaurant in Kyoto, Kitaoji, for lunch. We arrived just before the last order time, so there was no line and we were seated right away. The menu had a variety of hamburg options, which made it hard to choose. I decided on the tomato sauce hamburger, while my son opted for the chicken steak with pork cutlet. The dishes arrived promptly and looked delicious. The hamburgers were juicy and flavorful, and we were both satisfied with our choices. The young and friendly staff were attentive, refilling our water glasses promptly. The restaurant had a nostalgic charm, with old-fashioned items like a pink dial telephone still in use. It was a pleasant dining experience, and we hope this beloved restaurant continues to thrive. Thank you for the meal.

One of the top 100 Western-style restaurants. It's often crowded with a line before opening for lunch, so I visited later in the evening. Even then, the popular restaurant was full. The menu is extensive, making it hard to decide, but I ordered the hamburger and chicken cutlet set. The main dishes like the hamburger and chicken cutlet were delicious, and the side dishes like the spaghetti Napolitan were also well-prepared. Just these alone could be a main dish. I'm curious about the cream sauce hamburger next time, and I want to go back to eat it again.

When I visit Kyoto, I often use this place ♡ No matter what time I go, there is always a long line, but I can't help it because I want to eat ‪(⸝⸝› з ‹⸝⸝)‬♡ This time, the lunch time was until 3 o'clock, but I arrived around 2:10 and there were still about 3 groups waiting. I think we entered the restaurant around 2:30. I always order the chicken cutlet ♡ This time, I got a set menu with shrimp fry to share with my daughter ♪ It was very filling! If you have a small appetite, you might want to ask for less rice. The chicken was tender as always, and the tomato sauce that came with it was amazing, maybe it's the restaurant's secret sauce? It looks like ketchup, but it's not too sour and has a great taste (Ŏ艸Ŏ) My husband and I are both hooked on it ♡ I will definitely visit again ꕤ︎︎·͜· ︎︎.

I am a Nara resident, so I don't have much connection to Kyoto. However, I made up my mind and decided to go all the way to the northern part of Kyoto city in one go. Well, when it comes to ancient cities, Nara is actually older than Kyoto, haha. In my local area, there is a famous place here. Around 10:15, a line started to form, and it was quite long when I joined it. I was instructed to wait at the counter, and they provided fans and spot coolers to the waiting customers, which was nice. After about an hour, I was finally seated at a single seat next to the kitchen, and the table was spacious and the sofa was comfortable to sit on. I was served water right away, which made me feel relieved. I ordered a set meal plus two pieces of fried chicken. The total bill was ¥2,400 plus ¥200 for the fried chicken, totaling ¥2,860 with tax. After being seated, it took 7 minutes to get rice and miso soup, and 10 minutes later, the main dish was served. Ordering two pieces of fried chicken, even for an average adult male, seemed quite filling. Please, don't make the mistake of eating in this calm atmosphere and saying, "This is just like the taste of the Gion Festival!" I have attached some detailed feedback in the images, but overall, I felt that I had a worthwhile experience experiencing the skills of the craftsmen of this long-established restaurant in the ancient capital.

I used to live near the botanical garden for a long time, and after work, I would get off at Kitaoji Station and buy books at Ogaki Shoten and Libro Kyoto before heading home. Recently, I park my car at the botanical garden and go to the Kyoto vegetable direct sales store beyond Hasegawa to buy tomatoes. Hasegawa has been in the same place since the Showa era, and even though the area around the station has changed, this Western-style restaurant remains the same. It has always been popular with long lines, and they have offered takeout since the old days. When I go with someone else, we each order different items to share, which allows us to enjoy bread and soup, rice and miso soup at the same time, doubling the enjoyment and flavor. The bread comes out warm, and the staff discreetly refills your water. This subtle service may be why people keep coming back. On this day, after buying vegetables and feeling a bit peckish in the afternoon, I noticed a few people in line, but luckily I was the only one, so I decided to get takeout for the first time in decades. I ordered a hamburger from the bento corner and was told it would take about 10 minutes, so I went to a nearby shop and returned. After picking it up, I crossed the bridge at Kitaoji, walked along the Kamogawa River on the Hanamiki Path, and headed to the parking lot at the entrance of the botanical garden. If it had been sunny, I might have eaten by the Kamogawa River, but nowadays in Kyoto, there are rogue crows targeting people. I witnessed several robbery scenes where they swooped down from above, targeting their prey and flying off at a right angle. It's quite a hassle to constantly be on the lookout, so I ended up having a late lunch in the car, surrounded by the greenery of the botanical garden. When I opened the bento box, I flipped the lid over and spread out the salad that came with it. The freshly made hamburger was light and flavorful, with a hint of meaty aroma. It was delicious even with a sunny-side-up egg on top. I would have been happy to have some pickles or pickled vegetables like in a convenience store bento. Having a Western-style restaurant bento lunch in nature is also a great experience. Thanks for the meal.

Last time we had lunch, but this time we came for dinner! We arrived just after the rain stopped. There was no line outside, but inside most of the tables were full, showing how popular the place is. It was just my father and I dining, and when a sofa seat opened up, the staff kindly suggested we move there. This time we ordered Dish D - shrimp and beef cutlet! The shrimp was huge as shown in the picture, thick and juicy! The crispy coating enhanced the deliciousness of the shrimp even more! It paired wonderfully with the tartar sauce on the side! (I usually don't like mayonnaise, but it was totally fine!) The beef cutlet had a firm texture, and the coating was slightly thin, creating a great combination! They had a wide selection of local wines, so I'll definitely try one next time!

I came to Kyoto and visited the famous Western-style restaurant Grill Hasegawa after a long time. I ordered the E-mix dish which includes hamburger, shrimp fry, and steak. The fluffy hamburger, satisfying shrimp fry, and tender steak were all delicious. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

There was a friendly shop assistant. I was happy even before eating. Today, I had delicious Karaage that can only be eaten here. The coating's seasoning and texture are original to Hasegawa. I will become a fan of this Karaage that can only be eaten here. The accompanying spaghetti has a sweet seasoning and a substantial amount, making it stand out. The cost performance is also good.

Located about a 5-minute walk east from Kitaoji Station on the subway in Kyoto's Kita Ward, this Western-style restaurant has been around for about 50 years. It's a well-established place that most people who grew up around here are familiar with. It used to be a busy restaurant, but it seems like the lines have gotten longer, possibly due to increased TV exposure. When I visited on a weekday around 11am, there was a wait for 8 people. Oh boy. Also, prices have gone up overall due to inflation, which is understandable. I ordered the set lunch, which features a different main dish depending on the day of the week. Since it was a Tuesday when I visited, the main dish was a hamburger. If you just order the hamburger, it's 880 yen. But if you add shrimp fry, it becomes the A set lunch, priced at 1200 yen. So I went for the A set lunch. The shrimp was amazing. It was big, with a generous amount of shrimp inside and a crispy coating that was very tasty. The hamburger, which is a signature dish of this restaurant, had a consistent and delicious taste. The ketchup-like sauce was on the sweet side. I noticed that they now pre-dress the salad instead of offering a self-serve dressing station. Despite some minor changes, the lines are getting longer, but the restaurant does a good job of managing them, and the service is still great.

★Top 100 Restaurants (Western Cuisine) 2022★ ▪️Location: 5-minute walk from Kitaoji Station towards the Kamogawa direction on Kitaoji Street ▪️Time: 6:00 PM ▪️Weather: Clear sky, slightly hot dusk ▪️Situation: Some vacancies on Friday dinner ▪️Service: Kind and courteous, attentive to refills ▪️Wait Time: About 15 minutes ▪️Exterior: Atmosphere of a traditional Western cuisine restaurant ▪️Interior: Classic music playing in the air, giving off a sense of tradition ▪️Number of Visits: Numerous visits over a period of over 40 years ▪️Rating on Visit: 3.57 A well-established Western cuisine restaurant with over 60 years of history. There is always a line on weekends. They also sell bento boxes next to the shop, and having a picnic under the blue sky by the Kamogawa River during good weather for lunch might be nice. It takes some time from ordering to being served, both for bento boxes and inside the restaurant. The menu consists mainly of fried and grilled dishes such as tonkatsu, fried chicken, shrimp fry, croquettes, chicken cutlet, etc. Most menu items come in a pattern of hamburger + fried or grilled dish. Prices are higher when steak or shrimp are included. A common choice is the hamburger + tonkatsu set, but today I felt like having shrimp. 【Order】 B Mix (Shrimp and Tonkatsu) - 1870 yen Extra large rice - +100 yen Overall, the dishes are carefully prepared and presented. ○Tonkatsu: Not too thin, properly cooked with a decent size. The sauce is their original red sauce. Honestly, I prefer to eat tonkatsu with tonkatsu sauce. So, when you add Worcestershire sauce from the table and then the red original sauce, it tastes really good. ○Shrimp Fry: Large shrimp coated in crispy batter. Juicy and delicious. ●Miso Soup: Miso soup with tofu and slightly sweet fried tofu. ▲Rice: Rice lacks a chewy texture and depth of flavor, which is a bit disappointing. Thank you for the meal as always. m(_ _)m
