Located a 5-minute walk from Uji Station, near the Uji Bridge Shopping Street, "Washun Kien" is a Japanese restaurant where you can enjoy authentic seasonal Japanese cuisine. Using seasonal ingredients carefully selected by the owner who comes from Kyoto Kaiseki every morning, we prepare a menu that houses the techniques and aesthetics of craftsmen, from Japanese lunch to authentic Japanese dinner. For a high-quality Japanese lunch enjoyed in between walks in Uji, we deliver the famous fragrant and fluffy unaju and set meals that lock in the flavors of the season. Also, at dinner time when a quiet and comfortable time flows, you can enjoy seafood dishes that highlight brand sake and Japanese courses prepared seasonally. High-quality Japanese lunch in the Uji area...

The restaurant is a hidden gem in a small quiet alley of uji. It's amazing to observe the chef attentively cooking food for you. We were having a wonderful time eating delicious food while enjoying a very good selection of sake. The chef assistant has also been very nice. Overall the whole experience of eating there is very pleasant, especially after a long day in a hot summer of Japan.

The restaurant sits in a quiet alley from the busy main street. It’s petite but the food is well prepared and presented. Chef use the seasonal ingredients, lightly flavored composition.

It's a small restaurant, about 10 covers, but very cosy. Only one chef and one waitress on duty tonight. The chef cooked every dish in front of us, very skillful and in details. We don't understand Japanese and he used his mobile phone and provided us the translation to introduce the sashimi platter. It's a wonderful meal and we enjoyed very much. Highly recommended!

Very delicate cuisine, unadon / eel rice is at supreme quality, you can taste the flavor of the eel which is very rare. Note: need to allow time to enjoy as the chef handles everything himself. Highly recommended.

The Pinnacle of Dining. This Uji restaurant is a true contender for Japan's finest. The food is a transcendent art form, defined by unparalleled attention to detail and exquisite sourcing. A unique experience is created by the truly loving staff and chef team. Since space is extremely limited, securing a reservation is essential.
