Gion Shinbashi Nakatani

Gion Shinbashi Nakatani is a seasonal kaiseki restaurant in a small alley near Gion Shijo Station and Tatsumi Bridge. It serves an omakase course centered on seasonal fish and Kyoto vegetables, including scallops and various hoe. Rice is cooked in a dedicated pot, and leftover rice is packed as takeout onigiri. Because it sits deep in a narrow alley, the location is hard to find at first.
