Enchanted by dishes filled with the poetry and flavor of the seasons. Enjoy a culinary experience that delights the senses at this long-established restaurant.

Gion Okumura, located on Hanamikoji Street in Kyoto's Gion district, is a pioneer of "French Kaiseki (tea-ceremony dishes)," a fusion of Kyoto Kaiseki and French cuisine. With over 40 years of history, originating from its predecessor, Seiyo Zentokoro Okumura, it has been cherished by both local regular guests and tourists. Currently, the kitchen is led by Chef Kamitsuji, who has spent his life as a chef with the restaurant. While maintaining the "Okumura style" of creating new tastes with Japanese and Western techniques and flavors, he is developing new attractions for the restaurant by increasing the number of dishes that use Kyoto vegetables. The true essence of Gion Okumura can be savored through their two types of "Omakase (chef's choice) French Kaiseki" for both lunch and dinner, and the wine pairing is even more impressive! The restaurant, situated in a renovated machiya (traditional wooden townhouse), is renowned for its entirely private dining rooms, allowing guests to immerse themselves in an elegant atmosphere for a truly blissful dining experience. read more
