Kyoto, Japan｜Torataro

One of the best experiences I treated myself to in Japan! As a solo traveler it was a bit of a fancy and nerve-wracking experience but the meal was delicious and the ambiance was amazing. The restaurant has very traditional style dining rooms which was a fun experience and the food was absolutely superb! The pork was delicious and the dipping sauce was phenomenal. The lunch special definitely seemed to be a fantastic deal to me, especially considering the whole dining experience. I had a little bit of difficulty finding the restaurant at first - it's downstairs of a main building! Also English friendly from my experience.

Stumbled upon it from the proximity to our hotel. Fantastic atmosphere, friendly staff and excellent food quality. My wife and I both really enjoyed this unique shabu shabu experience.

Excellent shabu shabu. We loved the authentic Japanese experience. Servers were excellent explaining the proper way to prepare the food. It is a beautiful restaurant with great atmosphere. Highly recommend.
