Kyoto, Japan｜Harise

Stumbled on this place by accident - a hidden gem. Very friendly staff, classic Japanese interiors and superb set menu. Highly recommended

Amazing! Felt like it should have been so much more than we paid, especially for having a private room. It made it so much easier that staff spoke English so we could ask questions about the dishes and also note beforehand that one of us had a shellfish allergy. Each dish was beautiful and delicious. Pro tip: wear nice socks! I did not and felt ashamed to walk around barefooted. 🙈

Highly recommend this place. You'll be surprised as soon as you enter. They do speak English and will tell you what you are eating. Their tomato mousse, it's out of this world (will remember it for the rest of my life). Excellent service and relaxing atmosphere.
