Pontochō

Kort sagt

A lantern-lit dinner alley between Shijō and Sanjō by the Kamogawa — yakitori counters up to multi-course kaiseki. Early Sept is still kawayuka season, when eastern-side restaurants extend platforms out over the river.

Anbefalinger

• Book a kawayuka river-platform dinner while it's up (May–Sept only)
• Avoid the places with English touts and photo menus out front

Greit å vite

• Most restaurants open 17:00–23:00
• Reservation strongly recommended for the kawayuka side
