Kamata

Kamata is a Japanese restaurant in Kyoto that serves kaiseki and Kyoto cuisine made with seasonal ingredients. Dishes built on dashi come with a small pot of soy milk, sesame, and white miso, and diners choose the main dish and the closing rice. The chef ran the kitchen at Gion Rakuraku for 20 years and opened Kamata in 2019, and sake is suggested to match the food. There are 8 counter seats and one private room that holds up to 6 people, so reservations are required.
