Kyoto, Japan｜Yukari

We dined for Kaiseki (chef selection) at Yukari on Saturday 11th October 2023 and we had such a lovely time. Each meal was outstanding and delicious with great attention to detail. Our chef Masayuki was not only a trained Chef but also holds a diploma in Sake so we were presented with delicious meals perfectly paired with sake. We could not fault one thing about this meal, the service and atmosphere which was well worth the price. I can highly recommend this if you’re looking for a special Kaiseki dinner in Kyoto. Thank you for a wonderful evening, we hope to return again one day.

I’ve been here twice for omakase and it’s been exquisite both times. Though the wait staff and chef do not speak English, they are very friendly and totally hyped up my below-basic level of Japanese. The food was delicious each time I was there, and the atmosphere is warm and intimate. They are extremely attentive - down to noticing that my partner is left handed and placing down saucers and dishes accordingly without prompting. Although they accept walk-ins, there is a chance it is fully reserved so I’d recommend making a reservation before heading down.

Second time to having food here. Great food and the chef is great. He is so nice and kind. All the staff is so nice too. The price is cheap here. Will come here again.
