Takakura Yamamoto

Tempura restaurant

👍👍 Fun atmosphere, charming head chef, accommodated for my dietary requirements. Conversed well with my group despite our limited Japanese. Chose the tempura omakase course. Tempura was light and crispy, not greasy at all, cooked perfectly and the rice bowl at the end was excellent.

Mizuki

Gion Tempura Tensou

Tempura restaurant

👍👍 This was the best meal I had in Kyoto. For a fine dining experience, their set lunch was very affordable. The tempura is amazing, but the rice dish at the end, which is really the main course, is outstanding.

Kyotomi

Japanese restaurant

👍👍 とても美味しい天丼が食べられます。エビと穴子天丼が一押しですが、夏なら鱧天丼も美味しいです。天丼を注文すると、丼提供かご飯と分けて提供か選べます。食後に出てくるシャーベットも、すっきりとした柚子や梅（季節により違うのかも）でこれまた美味しいです。

Tempura Tozan

Tempura restaurant

👍👍 河原町御池通りを一筋下がって東に入ると、お目当ての「天ぷら東山)」がすぐそこに。ひがしやまでなくて、とうざんと読むこのお店、ビル2階のこじんまりした処に構える。天ぷらを揚げるなんともいい香りがいっぱいに漂う。揚げたての具材がスッーと目の前に並ぶようカウンターにこだわるとある。なるほど天ぷらの専門だけ...

Kyoboshi

Tempura restaurant

👍👍 It's not a restaurant I go to all the time, but it's a restaurant that serves tempura like no other. Although it is a small story, there are 17 types. They fry seasonal vegetables and fish. With less batter and a texture similar to fried chicken, the original flavor of the ingredients is complemente...

Tempura and Temari-Sushi Miyako

Tempura restaurant

👍👍 The restaurant is pretty small...perhaps seating for 25 in total. They have a nice south facing view of Kyoto. There was a wait when we arrived for a late lunch. They do have an English menu. I ordered the Gion set (see pictures), which has a number of different tempura items. Vegetables, fish....

Ten You

Tempura restaurant

👍👍 I will for sure never get tempura like this ever again. This restaurant is bold in every way and it just works! Who even thinks about using corn for tempura? I highly recommend this place, the chefs and staff is excellent and the food is so tasty.

Mirei

Japanese restaurant

😠 ★I will choose one. There are no prices listed on the meal menu. The quantity is small and the price is extremely high. After drinking 2-3 glasses of alcohol and feeling reasonably full, It will cost about 15,000 yen per person. Many people are probably surprised by their bill. I will never visi...
