Coco Hana
Restaurant
👍👍 Must visit for vegetarians/vegans. On our vacation to Japan from India, located at a walking distance from Kinkakuji temple, we tried the Buddha Bowl and the Vegetable Taco at Coco Hana. Wholesome meal and utterly delicious! We also requested for some potato fries to be made and the restaurant kindl...

KITSUNE KYOTO
Night club
😠 HORRIBLE CORRUPT FRAUD CLUB, Owners are suspected of theft and fraud, you'd think that putting belongings in one of their lockers would be safe but it's very common for people to come back to find everything gone, no money, no explanation, owners are definitely in on it, security guards are pretty s...

Kurasu Kyoto Stand
Coffee shop
👍👍 Hidden gem of a coffee shop! Definitely the best option to get a delicious coffee or macha-flavored drink around the Kyoto station area. They also sell some cookies and snacks. Only downside is its own popularity. It's a small shop so it can get busy and crowded really fast.

👍👍 This is not only an amazing coffee shop but was one of my favorite experiences in Kyoto. The shop is owned by a husband and wife, the husband is a coffee expert who roasts his own beans and the wife is an incredible baker. Not only did I enjoy a delicious beverage and treat I also had such an amazin...

VEGAN IZAKAYA 虹屋 nijiya VEGAN FARM
Vegan restaurant
👍👍 There are only a few seats but the staff were incredibly friendly. Menu is in English and there is a good selection of traditional Japanese foods. Dishes are small and tapas style - you order a few if you want a proper meal but if you just want a drink and snack you can also do that. The food was ex...

Pug Cafe Living Room Kyoto
Dog cafe
👍👍 Best place in the world. These pug’s are wild and love “working” in the cafe. Very smart and know which ppl have treats and swarm them. When you run out of treats you can chill and watch the pugs. An old one will usually join you to sit in peace. There are tons of pugs and they’re all very well take...

👍👍 I’m not exaggerating when I say this. Best curry I have ever eaten in my life so far. I’ve been coast to coast in America and nothing beats what I had last night. Everything was so fresh and flavor packed. We had the chef’s recommendation and not only was it great value but super delicious. I highly...

Teppan Tavern Tenamonya
Teppanyaki restaurant
👍👍 It’s hard to capture in a review how wonderful and magical of an experience we had at Teppan Tavern. Hands down the best meal we had in Japan, and probably the most incredible all-around dining experience I’ve ever had! We had a reservation at 5pm and were warmly welcomed by the owners (a married co...

Teppanyaki restaurant
👍👍 The most delicious food served by the sweetest old couple. We came back a second time because the first time was so good! The okonomiyaki, the konbei (stir fried pork and cabbage wrapped in an omelette), and the scallops cooked in butter were all excellent. My boyfriend was OBSESSED with their grill...

Brewpub
👍👍 Cute little brewery in a quiet part of town. The tea-infused bar was delicious! Staff were friendly and they chose great music for the bar playlist. Not exactly a place to sit and eat a full meal as there were no chairs, so standing room only, but they did have appetizers/ snacks. The bar had games...

Burger Revolution Kyoto
Hamburger restaurant
👍👍 Was this the best meal we had in Japan? Maybe not. Was it the most spiritually and emotionally fulfilling meal we had in Japan? Definitely. Sometimes you just need a meal that tastes like home. The burgers are out of this world good with high quality beef, and the onion rings were perfect--in that t...

Good ambiance and the entrance is a cool photo spot also as it's hidden behind a phone booth. Definitely will come back next time we'...
