Okara is tofu dregs that remain after pureed soybeans are filtered in the production of tofu, and it is one of my favorite food. However, it’s quite rare to be main dish. This hard-to-find unique diner evokes the potential of okara very well. Last but not least, their service and Five-grain rice is brilliant!

Very kind owner and lady working here who explained what the dishes were. Rolled in from doing the temple exploration while being very hungry. Fell in love with the Daikon. The meal was very filling and everything together was a very big meal. The price was also very good and the seating was cute cafe style. No wifi though.

Very delicious vegetarian lunch served by a sweet lady running the restaurant! We had the croquette lunch set which was diverse and filling. 5-min walk from Ninnan-ji and close to the tram for those looking to visit Arashiyama after

There were two ladies and they were so friendly and they showed the exact Japanese hospitality I was hoping to see. I could say only a few things in Japanese, they were happy to see me trying, they have treated me with a cake and a rice ball. I loved it so much, if I lived in Kyoto, I would visit them just to feel the comforting atmosphere. Thanks you so much!

We stumbled upon this place for lunch after visiting some of the temples nearby. It definitely seemed like a traditional, family owned establishment, with one woman cooking and preparing the food in the front, and a tatami room to dine in, which we loved! We tried the fried okra and yuba meals and all of the food was delicious. The owner was lovely and we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch here.
