What kind of place?
Fake reviews removedFounded in 1904, this retro Showa-era diner is just steps from Sanjo Station Exit 9. The signature saramori — rice topped with pork cutlet and a thick curry-flavored sauce — was invented about 40 years ago and has been a local institution ever since. Always packed at lunch on weekdays. A living piece of Kyoto's diner heritage spanning over 120 years.
Reviewers say the 650-yen saramori delivers flavor and volume that rivals any celebrated restaurant, and describe it as a gathering spot for local regulars where familiar faces vastly outnumber tourists.
