Kyoto, Japan｜Kyoto Kitcho Arashiyama

Highlight of our trip! Every dish is delicious, fresh, and pretty. Service is excellent. Great location as well. Recommend to book early (~ 2-3month ahead)

One of a kind experience - perfection to the utmost degree. Every single element of the meal from start to finish feels intentional and thoughtfully executed. From the service, to the dishware and presentation, to the food itself - Kyoto Kitcho is the pinnacle. This was and will likely continue to be the benchmark for the highest degree of food gastronomy we will ever have the luxury of partaking. Thank you for ruining food for us forever - the bar has been raised too high after this meal. Would be ecstatic to dine here again; however, the wallet puts up a strong argument against this.

Deserving of it’s three Michelin stars. A gastronomic feast of rare and delicious ingredients for all the senses; impeccably presented. The meal was tailored to our personal story, which made it an utterly unique and an unforgettable lifetime food experience.
