we arrived at about 1pm on a weekday and there was a 30mins wait- you write your name down and they’ll call out your name when it’s your turn. we got the table seat, although you can choose the tatami one (you have to remove your shoes) as we didn’t want to wait longer. hot tea was served, along with warm towels. we ordered the yamato chicken somen (1900 yen) and 4 people assorted sushi set (5660 yen). somen was very good, soup was so flavourful with soft noodles, chicken was marinated well. karaage was extremely well done. the kakinoha sushi was more towards the tangy side, it contained a lot more vinegar than regular sushi. it had more rice to filling ratio compared to your normal sushi. overall, we found it pretty tasty, atmosphere was really nice too, very private and woody themed which we liked. card accepted.

Some say there's nowhere good to eat in Nara, since the focus is the deer and tourists will just grab whatever is nearby. Well, get here early and you're in for a treat. Delicate somen noodles, crispy fresh chicken karaage, a quiet reserved atmosphere and of course the local speciality: persimmon wrapped sushi, which I'm actually not a fan of, but it's definitely something unique to try, as there is a subtle taste from the leaves and the fish is ever so slightly cooked. The highlight for me was the ramen and the spicy mustard type sauce which you can stir in. Absolutely lovely! This is a nice little restaurant for a quiet meal, please be respectful.

Small restaurant specializing in seasonal dishes and Nara specialties. There were four items available when I went (April 2023). There was a venison and boar curry (served with rice, pickles, salad, and a red bean and rice ball wrapped in persimmon leaf), a marinated tuna bowl (served with soup, pickles, chawanmushi, a mountain yam side dish, and the same dessert), a noodle dish, and something else I can’t quite remember. We got two of each of the curry and the tuna bowl with a persimmon juice. Everything was delicious! I really enjoyed the tuna bowl and the accompaniments. Service was very polite and prompt.

Amazing local restaurant with traditional Japanese food specialized in sushi. Food was amazing although with 2 menus, restricted by lunch or diner service. Atmosphere was amazing, they offer traditional tatami seating as well as western(tables/chair) option and have a LOT of take away orders. Service was impecable, knowledgeable with limited English but very friendly. No wifi yet service is so efficient you barely have time to waste or loiter. Restroom was 2 private booths, although mixed they were amazingly clean. I would definitely recommend anyone a meal here and for sure will return if I can.

Kakinoha (Persimmon Leaves) sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves is a Nara delicacy that has been served since the Edo Era. Slices of mackerel, salmon, sea bream and other fish are placed on top of fairly small amounts of vinegared rice and wrapped in persimmon leaves to form kakinoha sushi. With a gentle flavor, peeling back the leaves to eat the sushi releases the wafting smell of the leaves to further enhance its fine taste. We bought the eight pieces of kakinoha with the combination of both mackerel and salmon for ¥1306, absolutely a must try!
