A message from the Chef

5-Course Vegetarian Tempura Kaiseki with Yuba Tofu Sashimi

We opened Tempura Imadegawa Shiro with the hope of building lasting connections with our guests and becoming a restaurant they will continue to cherish for years to come.

Our logo features three ume-musubi plum knots made from traditional Japanese mizuhiki cord. They represent our guests, our restaurant, and our family, joined together by a strong and lasting bond. Every encounter created through our food is a meaningful connection to us.

We carefully prepare the seasonal ingredients sourced each day as tempura and other Japanese dishes. We hope you will also enjoy watching each dish come together across the counter. Every dish is prepared with care so that your meal becomes a memorable part of your time in Kyoto.

About

Located in Kyoto’s Imadegawa area, Tempura Imadegawa Shiro serves seasonal Japanese cuisine centered around freshly prepared tempura.

At the heart of the restaurant is a spacious open-counter kitchen where guests can watch the chefs at work up close. The natural wood counter creates a warm, refined setting, while the cooking process forms part of the dining experience as each ingredient is coated in batter and fried before guests.

From the aroma of sesame oil and the sound of tempura frying to its light, freshly cooked texture, guests can experience Japanese tempura culture through all five senses. Each piece is served at the moment it is ready to be enjoyed.

Course Menu

Seasonal Specialty

Seasonal seafood and vegetables sourced each day are prepared using methods suited to the individual ingredients. The tempura is fried to bring out each ingredient’s natural flavor and texture, then served one piece at a time while freshly prepared.

The menu also includes sashimi made with fresh seafood and a selection of seasonal Japanese dishes. From the counter, guests can watch the entire process, from cutting the ingredients and coating them in batter to frying them directly before their eyes. The aromas and sounds of the kitchen add another dimension to the tempura experience.

Tableware and toys for young children are also available, helping families enjoy their meal comfortably. Guests are invited to experience seasonal ingredients and the craftsmanship of the chefs up close in a welcoming, relaxed setting.
