Hiranoya Restaurant Arashiyama
- Kyoto
- 07 Apr, 2025
They simply do not make restaurants more attractive than this old teahouse near Atago Torii in Arashiyama. It’s a teahouse that doubles as a proper restaurant.
With an atmospheric thatched roof, this traditional country house has been turned into one of Kyoto’s most attractive restaurants. You can choose from a simple cup of hot matcha tea with a sweet for ¥840, or you can reserve one of the back rooms for a full kaiseki spread that will run about ¥15,000 per person.
For more Kyoto kaiseki choices, see our Best Kaiseki in Kyoto page.
