Food "Cooking that Embodies the Spirit of Harmony, Respect, Purity, and Tranquility, Honoring Nature and Welcoming Guests"
At "Gion Matakichi," you can enjoy kaiseki cuisine that utilizes fresh seafood and vegetables nurtured by the changing seasons, prepared with techniques that are not bound by tradition. The course, consisting of about 13 dishes, is abundant and allows you to fully savor the vibrant flavors of seasonal ingredients. The deep flavors of the dishes are further enhanced by the special custom-made tableware from a pottery studio. I hope to indulge in a moment of elegant gourmet dining that touches the heart with the beauty of "ichigo ichie" (a once-in-a-lifetime encounter).
SpaceIn a Simple and Elegant Space, Gently Engaging with the Breath of the Four Seasons
In harmony with the charm of Gion Hanakōji, a dignified presence awaits. Upon passing through the noren curtain, one is greeted by an elegant space that seems to embody the spirit of kaiseki cuisine. The ethereal calligraphy of "Gion Matakichi" by calligrapher Ishikawa Kyōyō welcomes guests. The simple yet substantial counter, with a total of 10 seats, allows patrons to savor the earnest hospitality of Matakichi as he engages in a dialogue with the ingredients and tableware right before their eyes. Additionally, there are private rooms with a courtyard available for up to six people, making it a delightful option for various occasions.
The essence of tea kaiseki and the seasonal charm of Gion, where every moment is unique. A precious dining experience that impresses with delicate craftsmanship.
"Gion Matakichi," which has been awarded two Michelin stars continuously since 2016, offers a unique take on traditional tea kaiseki cuisine, influenced by Chef Matakichi's Okinawan roots. Respecting ...the ingredients and embracing the spirit of "ichigo ichie" (one time, one meeting), the dishes range from simple to extravagant, showcasing a variety of flavors.
The custom-made tableware, delicate dishes, and elegant atmosphere come together to create a refined dining experience in Kyoto's geisha district.
Indulge in a leisurely moment of exquisite cuisine.
