Enjoyed the food, especially the firecracker roll. Everything is so good and I thought I was in Japan for a while. Will definitely be back here again soon!

We usually eat here about twice a year. The last meal was underwhelming, this one was too. The shrimp tempura was soggy and the shrimp tasted old. The beef sukiyaki was good, but the meal was disappointing. We will probably try to find another Japanese restaurant in the future.

We always love Kyoto and the food is excellent, but this time our experience was very disappointing. We had a 6 pm reservation and arrived on time. We were asked to wait, then seated at about 6:10. At 7:30, the waitress asked us to leave so the next reservation could be seated. As we departed, we passed several large empty tables! We were having a lovely time catching up with our friends, but the evening was unnecessarily cut short. Not okay!!!

Roll was good but udon seems not quite right. Cannot recommend it unless you are definitely eating sushi or roll.

Great Japanese food. Lunch menu Katsu Curry is to die for.

I love sushi with shrimp tempura but this was ALL tempura with the SMALLEST strip of shrimp. I've never seen shrimp so small and honestly I couldn't even taste it but I definitely paid for it. Such a bummer, my meal wasn't great. One and done I guess.

The food was good. My steak was a little overcooked. Not enough to send back but not the medium rare I ordered. My husband's was medium rare as ordered. Everyone can have an off night now and then so this experience will not prevent me from returning.

my friend car broke down, she had her baby and it was hot and we went in and asked if we could feed him out on the deck, they were so nice about it and even brought a water, the people who i think are the owners came out and were so polite and said we could go inside to feed him, they also gave us cold towels, will definitely eat here eventually due to just this experience alone.

Prices have risen to quite a level that makes frequency of dining prohibitive.

The food is always good. The staff was gracious to move our reservations to a later time due to traffic.

We ordered two entrées. The chicken teriyaki and the fillet, both were excellent! We had a reservation so we seated promptly. Service was perfect. I've been dining here for over 20 years and even with the change of ownership the meals are exactly the same and are fantastic.

Exceptional service and more delicious food than we could eat. It was a great way to celebrate a birthday.

I used to love this classic Japanese sushi restaurant especially with my Japanese friends who most enjoyed it. A full year or more had gone by since I had visited until this past week with my good Japanese friend. We were shocked and grossly disappointed at the low quality, tasteless and likely not fresh flavor of the sushi we ordered. Honestly the author we had eaten at Smith grocery store for lunch the day before was fresher and better tasting. I certainly will no longer return to kyoto.

We come back to Kyoto restaurant regularly because the food is excellent. We have never had a dish we didn't enjoy!
