Mumon — Restaurant in Kyoto

Quite an awful experience. When the waiter first was arranging us the seat, he didn't ask if we'd like to sit at the smoking area or not while none of us is smoker. We were being arranged to be seated right next to a local family that two of them were non-stop smoking during the meal. It was 9pm and there was not too many customers by that time but they didn't arrange a non-smoking area until we asked so. Food was OK but some of them were a bit different with the menu's photos so I hope they could provide more accurate information to prevent the over expectation from the customer! Besides, it was quite pricy with the portion that they provided. Conclusion: not...

The place has excellent fugu; however, the shabu shabu wasn't explained all that well and led to our meal going a bit awry. Atmospherically, the place felt inviting and fun! Although quite busy as it seemed as if a work function was happening at the time of our meal. Service wide, beyond the previously explained situation, was decent. Friendly and courteous and obviously tried their best to communicate despite the language barrier. All in all, I recommend this place for fugu but not as your first shabu shabu restaurant. Else, you'll be confused....

Great service and great food, black pork shabu shabu was really...
