Story & Recommendation
A restaurant near Kinkakuji offering soba and udon noodles made with a uniquely delicious dashi soup
GONTARO Kinkakuji is a soba and udon noodle restaurant located near Kinkaku-ji Temple and Ryoan-ji Temple. This restaurant takes pride in the dashi stock it uses for its delicious soba and udon soup. The stock is prepared with great care using especially selected kombu kelp and salt to produce a deliciously rich flavor. We definitely recommend trying out the soba and udon noodles made with this wonderful stock. The restaurant also has a wide selection of additional dishes, such as rice bowls topped with yakitori or tempura. The wooden interior features the style of old Japanese buildings, offering a calm and relaxing atmosphere.
It also has a beautiful garden that provides a space where visitors can relieve their tiredness. Here you can relax and enjoy a delicious meal surrounded by a Kyoto-like atmosphere.
