“ This is a nice Monjayaki and okonomyaki place in Kyoto. We like this type of restaurant as you can semi cook on your own and eat the way you like. Good experience. ”
“ We didn’t know what to expect as we were just looking for somewhere to eat and chanced upon this restaurant. It’s okonomyaki and rivals the highest rated we visited in Hiroshima. Although there are no counter seats we were able to watch all the meals being cooked. We ordered the potatoes with cheese, noodles with veg and okonomyaki with pork. All very tasty and we over-ordered as my husband is a bit picky. We were impressed and enjoyed the meal and experience. ”
“ Seated within 5 minutes. Staff spoke limited English, but there are English menus available via the tablet. It was very busy and so the food took a while to come out. We ordered okonomiyaki which was very tasty. ”
“ This place is nice to have okonomiyaki and monjayaki, yakisoba. The best thing is that they have spacious tables and seats. I was there with my kids(3yo and 5 yo) and they accepted us to dine in. They've got English menu in their tablets. They provides various menu with lots of options and a variety of drinks too. It was pleasant experience. ”
“ Portion is huge, taste is delicious! The shop has also efficiently facilitated English menu so ordering is not a problem at all for non-Japanese speakers. Just know that you have to take a queue number before dining in. Sometimes the queue can get long, but staffs there work very diligently. Good job! ”
“ Great sign when there no tourists and mostly locals within. Bad side was it was very difficult to understand or communicate. Although the tablet was in English, some add ins and other accompaniments were not translated. Alison’s was delicious. Definitely a memorable dinner. ”
