STEAK & BURGER Cafe NICK STOCK — Restaurant in Kyoto

The atmosphere gave off a sense of respect to where the meat comes from, and unsurprisingly the meat also tasted like it was prepared with the respect it deserves. I had a normal hamburger and bacon cheese burger (mind you I was very hungry after a full day of sightseeing).

The taste of the burger patties and the bacon were pleasant and natural. I could taste the meat exactly for what it is.

We also ordered a hamburger in cheese sauce, which was sliced in half so it could be shared. The cheese sauce was really good.

The sofa seating was spacious and comfortable for our family of five. Overall, it’s a great place for good food and a...
