Gion Mikaku

Gion Mikaku is a restaurant in Gion, Kyoto that serves beef steak and teppanyaki. From its second-floor windows, diners look out over the Shirakawa canal and a row of cherry trees. The teppanyaki is cooked by a chef in front of the guests, and the beef is prepared so that it is tender enough to melt in the mouth. Staff attend to diners closely throughout the meal.
