Favorite Incredible Kaiseki. Delicious. Kazu-san's culinary skills were absolutely amazing. He's Living National Treasure of Kyoto, as described by Shota-san from Fifth Taste. Various cooking techniques & wide range of ingredients used. Since it's only 3 of us, we were treated extra generous portions w/ a special menu. Soba & Rice dishes were refillable. Our server Mino-san from Sushi Kisen is aways very warm and welcoming. So nice to see Chef Naoto-san started working there. Super friendly environment. $350 per person. Corkage $50 per 750mL. Hot Tea $6. Self-parking $10 at lot. Pop-ups on Monday nights and select Sunday nights at Sushi Yamamoto. Soba lunch pop-ups on Sundays. DM @kaiseki.motoishi to book.
