I visited this restaurant for lunch with a friend during our trip to Kyoto. The atmosphere was stylish and lovely. We were amazed by the hand-rolled sushi, so cute! Before we knew it, we had finished everything in our stomachs. The meat was so tender that we ended up finishing it all without realizing it. It was delicious.

I wanted to have lunch at a place with a Kyoto-like atmosphere, so I came here.【About the restaurant】- A teppanyaki dining restaurant renovated from a traditional townhouse in a quiet residential area- Recognized as the first official "Miyazaki beef designated restaurant" in Kyoto【Lunch course】¥3,800- Includes: 60g of selected Miyazaki beef steak and 6 other dishes that change monthly, plus a glass of sparkling wine- The meat is very delicious! A bit of gristle, but at this price, it's okay- The scallop butter is plump and incredibly tasty- The burdock soup didn't have much burdock flavor- The hand-rolled sushi is Kyoto-style and meticulously made, very good- The rice is a bit sweet, so I thought it could be a bit more refreshing- Dessert options are pudding or French toast, and the French toast is amazingly delicious!- The sparkling wine included in the course was not too sweet and quite good【Atmosphere of the restaurant】- A two-story restaurant with a calm atmosphere- The space is quite spacious, allowing for a relaxing experience- Various aspects of Kyoto's charm can be seen throughout the restaurant- It's a bit away from the city center, so it's relatively quiet and has a sophisticated atmosphere【Sakiti's one point】- Recommended for solo diners, female friends, couples, and spouses- Personally, I think it's better for groups of up to 2 people rather than 3 or more- When making a reservation through Ichijiku, it's nice that you can get a free message on the dessert plate

I visited the restaurant during Halloween. The dishes were decorated subtly for Halloween, making the course enjoyable not only in taste but also in appearance. Despite being a teppanyaki restaurant, the set also included sushi, providing a nice variety in flavors. I heard that they source Miyazaki beef directly, so the freshness of the meat was excellent. However, the texture of the meat may vary depending on personal preference. Overall, it is a very delicious restaurant that I would recommend to friends.

This steakhouse located in Nijo-Yagai Baba is still one of my favorite restaurants. It's a valuable place where you can enjoy a meal in a slightly luxurious mood at a reasonable price. One of the nice things about this type of restaurant is that you can watch the chef's work in front of a large iron plate while eating. At the request of my wife and daughter, we visited for lunch as a family of three. We ordered the "Hand-rolled sushi and Miyazaki beef steak set" this time. You can choose from Ichibo, sirloin, and top sirloin for the steak, and we chose the most reasonable Ichibo and added 60g of meat. The price for this was 3,600 yen (including tax). After being seated, we were given hand towels and cold water for COVID prevention, and the chef's cooking in front of us began. The first dish to come out was a small dish of Miyazaki beef cutlet simmered in soy sauce. The different cuts of meat had a good mix of textures, some with a chewy texture and others tender from being stewed, all well-seasoned. The simmered meat was so flavorful that it made us want some rice right away. When the Ichibo steak and vegetables in front of us were cooked, the main plate and hand-rolled sushi were served. The chef kindly included a seared sea urchin with the sirloin as a complimentary bite, adding a touch of luxury to our family lunch. The rich taste of the sirloin with marbled fat combined with the creamy sea urchin in the mouth was an incredibly luxurious flavor. This kind of rich meat is best enjoyed in small bites, as we felt when we started eating the Ichibo steak. The lean red meat was packed with flavor and had a firm texture, with a crispy, fragrant seared surface. I enjoyed it lightly seasoned with wasabi, salt, and garlic chips, allowing me to eat a consistent amount of this delicious meat. The grilled vegetables included pumpkin, lotus root, asparagus, and broccoli. Lightly seasoned with salt, you could enjoy the natural flavors of the ingredients. This seemed like a well-balanced way to finish off the rich meat with vegetables. The hand-rolled sushi was an assortment of 8 pieces. It included Miyazaki beef sirloin, lamp meat, radish and plum, egg, salmon, scallop, etc., all beautifully arranged and vibrant, sure to be a hit on social media, as my daughter praised. The vinegar in the rice was subtle, allowing you to clearly taste and feel the texture change with each bite. After finishing the main meal, dessert and coffee were served. The dessert was French toast with vanilla ice cream, and it was incredibly delicious. When I asked the chef, he explained that the bread was soaked in egg and milk for 3-4 days and then cooked on the iron plate with butter without losing its shape. It was finished with honey and powdered sugar, making it not only delicious but also visually stunning. When you took a bite with a knife and fork, the unexpectedly fluffy and creamy texture and elegant sweetness spread in your mouth. You can truly experience a taste sensation that you can't get anywhere else. This was my second time having this French toast, and my wife and daughter were also extremely satisfied and amazed. We all agreed that this French toast is something that can't be replicated at home. Dinner is also of high quality and reasonable, but the value and satisfaction of lunch surpasses that. Surrounded by the chef's gentle manner and smiles, as well as casual conversation, we were able to spend memorable time with our family. The location may seem like a hidden gem, but it's a restaurant that I highly recommend. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

I called for takeout around 18:10 on a public holiday and went to pick it up at the designated time of 18:30. I had the Teriyaki Chicken Bento for 850 yen (excluding tax). The teriyaki chicken was delicious, and the bamboo shoots added an elegant touch to the meal. I particularly enjoyed the sausage. They offer a variety of bentos and rice bowls, so I would like to visit again.

Delicious but not many customers.

Located on the southwest corner of Yanaginobaba Nijo, this teppanyaki restaurant uses Miyazaki beef for their steaks, but they also offer a variety of menu options for lunch. I decided to try the fluffy and creamy Omurice for 1,200 yen (excluding tax) this time. I sat at one of the eight counter seats, where I could watch the skilled cooking on the teppan right in front of me, which is one of the highlights of teppanyaki restaurants. I watched as they made the chicken rice, finely chopped bacon and onions were sautéed in butter, then rice was added and cooked until moist, with ketchup added for flavor. Three eggs were used, seasoned with salt and pepper, then quickly cooked on the teppan in melted butter until half-cooked. The dish was then beautifully plated in a large square dish. The Omurice was delicious with its perfect half-cooked eggs and fluffy texture. The ketchup topping added a light freshness and sweetness. The chicken rice was moist yet each grain of rice was firm, making it very tasty. The seasoning was mild, so even though the portion was quite generous, I finished it quickly. The taste was a bit different from the typical Western-style Omurice. The dish came with a side salad and a cup of miso soup. The restaurant is a bit out of the way, so even though this was my third visit, it was never full. This can be convenient for customers, but you can also make reservations for lunch. It's a hidden gem of a teppanyaki restaurant. Additionally, it was nice to have the chef chat with me in a friendly manner while I enjoyed my meal. It's a unique style that adds to the dining experience. The delicious Omurice was a treat. Thank you for the meal.

Visited around 1 pm for lunch. Ordered Miyazaki beef sirloin steak bowl (with salad and soup) for ¥2,400. Also ordered oolong tea for ¥400. The steak bowl is limited to 5 servings. First, salad and soup were served. The soup had lots of vegetables and was very delicious. The salad had watercress and leafy greens with shiso dressing, and tasted great with the sweet yellow sauce on the side. The meat for the steak bowl was cooked in front of me, giving a luxurious feeling. The meat was tender, flavorful, and very delicious. Topped with onions and plenty of scallions, and served with a special sauce. The counter seats had an elegant interior and a nice atmosphere. The staff provided excellent service.

This is my second visit, and once again I ordered a course with fish as the main dish. The seafood and meat were delicious, but the fluffy texture of the okonomiyaki that came afterwards was amazing. The French toast made with baguette for dessert was soaked in egg mixture for 2 days, giving it a custard-like texture that was surprising. While the A5 Miyazaki beef and Miyazaki chicken were undeniably delicious, these two dishes served at the end are highly recommended!

Visited in June 2017 with a friend for dinner. I also went for lunch on a different day, and I highly recommend it as well. It's a rare place where you can enjoy teppanyaki and flour dishes. Originally part of a okonomiyaki restaurant chain, they recently opened this teppanyaki restaurant, which makes sense. The teppanyaki menu offers a variety of options and everything was satisfying. Cooking on the iron plate allows the vegetables to absorb the flavor of the meat, making it delicious. The highlight of this place is the high-quality Miyazaki beef, and the steak in the photo is the best, a Chateaubriand. It was incredibly delicious. The meat is not just about the fat content. This meat has the perfect mix of lean meat and fat. It's tender, flavorful, and unlike anything I've had before. Overall, it was a very satisfying evening. Yes, the price was quite high because we ordered premium meat, but it's worth it. There are different types of meat available, so you can also find options that are more budget-friendly!

I had been curious about this steakhouse that also offers okonomiyaki and yakisoba, despite its appearance. I decided to try ordering a la carte this time. The photos show portions for two people: 1. Prosciutto salad 2. Fresh fish carpaccio 3. Braised beef tendon 4. Oyster wine steamed in heat-resistant wrap 5. Miyazaki jidori chicken teppanyaki 6. Truffle omelette - a standout dish with a creamy egg texture and the aroma of truffle. 7. Yakisoba - simply delicious. 8. Okonomiyaki - crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. 9. French toast - made from a recipe from a certain hotel, and perhaps the best dish of all. The total cost was around 7000 yen per person with three glasses of wine.

Today in Shijo Kawaramachi, there were many new adults celebrating, so I decided to move closer to Kyoto City Hall. I visited a teppanyaki restaurant called "L'ajitto" nearby. I made a reservation over the phone and they said, "The counter seats are full, but we can seat you at a table on the second floor." Although I couldn't experience the live teppanyaki cooking, I had to make do. The restaurant seemed newly opened last year, with a clean and modern feel. The lighting was dim, creating a moody and adult atmosphere. The building seemed like a renovated machiya, with counter seats on the first floor and table seats and private rooms on the second floor. I ordered a bottle of white wine, "Caritela Tribute Chardonnay" for ¥6,000. The menu also offered okonomiyaki and yakisoba. They used Miyazaki beef, a high-quality brand of beef. While the course menu started at ¥5,800 per person, I decided to order a la carte today. I ordered Miyazaki beef Chateaubriand 60g for ¥6,300, Miyazaki beef tendon for ¥1,200, fluffy yam grilled for ¥1,200, thick-cut bacon and asparagus butter sauté with fluffy egg on top for ¥900, Kujyo green onion and yuzu salt yakisoba for ¥1,200, asparagus and broccoli prosciutto salad for ¥1,000, and a complimentary appetizer of seasoned burdock. I also ordered a bottle of white wine, "Piara Bianco" for ¥3,800. The standout dishes were the Miyazaki beef tendon and the fluffy yam grilled. The tendon had a rich and savory flavor, complementing the wine perfectly. The yam grilled on the teppan was surprisingly thick and perfectly round, living up to its name of "fluffy and creamy." The meat, being Miyazaki beef, was incredibly delicious. The restaurant offers not only teppanyaki but also okonomiyaki and yakisoba, making it suitable for various occasions. There are private rooms available on the second floor for up to 8 people, making it great for entertaining clients as well. I look forward to visiting again for a different experience. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

At the end of the year, I visited with my family♪ I was looking for a reasonably priced teppanyaki restaurant near Karasuma Oike where we could enjoy a meal together without having to order an expensive course starting from 10,000 yen. We found this place and ordered the following dishes for our family of four, spending around 27,000 yen. We were so hungry that we couldn't resist digging in, so apologies for the lack of photos, but please bear with the chandelier photo instead. 1. Dishes we ordered: - Carpaccio: Thick slices with ample arugula, felt satisfying and reasonably priced. - Vegetable Steak, Fillet, Foie Gras: The vegetable steak that came with each order was a nice touch, and the anchovy and olive toppings added flavor. - Foie Gras Saute: The portion was small, but it paired well with the vegetable steak. - Asparagus and Thick-cut Bacon: Delicious, especially with cheese on top. - Sirloin Steak: Served with various sauces and garlic chips, cooked medium but slightly rare. - Miyazaki Beef Fillet: Similar to a high and round okonomiyaki, unique in flavor. - Garlic Rice: Served with garlic chips, maybe better without minced onions. 2. Ambiance: The teppanyaki counter on the first floor was full, so we were seated on the second floor with table seating. Despite a noisy group in the back, it wasn't too bothersome. The second floor had a slightly dimmer ambiance with chandeliers, suitable for couples or gatherings with friends. 3. Service: While I didn't interact with the teppanyaki chefs, the staff, possibly part-timers, were friendly and attentive, making the dining experience enjoyable. Overall, we had a good time and would consider revisiting. The restroom was also stylish, which was a nice touch.
