The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Western Kyoto
Western Kyoto is home to some of the city's best eccentricities. Kyoto's Saga-Toriimoto Preserved Street takes visitors back in time to the Meiji Period, where old homes have been transformed into tea houses and eateries. Pleasure boats drift down the riverbank, under wooden bridges that beckon nature lovers to hiking trails and botanical walks. The area's famously tall bamboo groves, monkey park, and impressive vistas during the Hanami cherry blossom viewing season mean that it is busiest in warmer months, though also gorgeous in the fall, when the mountains and hills along the banks turn multi-colored. Historic and engaging, even the rail cars in Western Kyoto seek to exemplify its traditional nature and scenic beauty. Many people, including natives, come to visit the 1,200 rakan statues at the Otagi Nenbutsuji Temple, which is still in use as a religious site.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I was strolling to the train station after my visit to Tenryu-ji temple when I spotted this restaurant. I waited 40 minutes for 1130 and was glad I had done so.
Service is impeccable and the whole place was very tasteful and zen. Then the food and tea came and both presentation and taste were exquisite.
AND it didn’t cost a bomb. Lovely. Fully recommended

If you are looking for the Japanese experience this is it. The menu is set but gives a wide choice of different dishes. No beer but a selection of green teas. The staff, in beautiful kimonos cheerfully replied to all our questions. The atmosphere is calm rather than hushed and prices very reasonable. A place on the edged of the city to recommend to all visitors to Kyoto and very near the bamboo forest attraction.

Authentic Japanese tea house with cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. If you're looking for something different than street food and stalls in the area around Togetsukyo Bridge, this establishment is a must.
