Robinson Karasuma

Robinson Karasuma is an Italian restaurant in an old Kyoto machiya between Shijo Station and Shijo Karasuma. The lunch menu includes unlimited refills of about 15 kinds of small house-made bread, and staff walk around the room serving the bread they have baked. Even around 1 p.m. on a weekday, guests wait about 15 minutes before being seated, and there is a private room used by 8 people. A waiting line forms during lunch hours, so reservations are required.
