Kyoto, Japan｜Ginzaten JR Kyōto Isetan 11F

I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant in March this year. I couldn't help but notice the exceptional quality of the food, particularly their deep-fried dishes. The chef truly has a talent for frying food to perfection, and the dishes were incredibly delicious. What made this dining experience truly unique was that we sat across the kitchen table and ate the dishes directly from the frying pans. The chef even went out of their way to adjust the saltiness and spiciness of the dishes to perfectly match our tastes, which made the experience all the more comfortable and enjoyable. I would love to visit again.

🍬When I came to Isetan for lunch at noon, I had to queue up all the way. When I came here, I said that I didn't need to queue up and went in quickly. 🍬It is the first time that the tempura set meal is so expensive. The amount is quite enough, and I couldn't eat it until the end. 🍬I chose the Shrimp Tendon, which is a rice bowl. So when the fried food comes up, it is not crispy, but soft. The taste is relatively ordinary, the taste of normal fried food. 🍬My friend chose the normal tempura set. The fried food is divided into 3 times, and it feels like you have almost eaten 3 pieces. Ensure crispy fried food. 🍬So in terms of service, I think this store is still very good. But I probably won't eat such an expensive tempura bowl in the short term.

Absolutely amazing! Best that we have ever had. Service was also very good- the chef chatted with us and explained how to best have each food that was served. Though it’s deep fried, the food was very tender and holds the delicacy really well.
