BONSAI 1877 is an Italian restaurant in a building from 1877, a 4-5 minute walk from Karasuma Oike Station in Kyoto. It serves wood-fired pizza, including buffalo mozzarella and tomato pizza, along with grilled vegetables and pasta, and pizza is available for takeout. At an 11:30 reservation, many guests were waiting at the entrance, indicating that reservations are needed. The stairs to the second floor are steep and the hallway is narrow, so take care when moving around.
