01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Beginning with a colourful array of appetisers, moving to a hearty meat course, and finishing with a rich Basque cheesecake, dining at Manmata brings together Japanese and Western culinary elements. Set in Itsutsuchicho within Kyoto’s Kamigyo Ward, the restaurant makes thoughtful use of a historic building's timeless character.
The carefully composed appetiser platter presents a varied selection of prepared items—such as salmon, terrine, roast beef, and deep-fried fish cakes—arranged on handsome tableware. The main meat dishes provide hearty satisfaction, whether through a reserved steak lunch or an evening dinner course. A selection of alcoholic drinks including wine and beer is on hand to complement the food.
Dessert brings the meal to a satisfying close with a dense, rich Basque cheesecake served alongside low-acidity coffee. Stepping past the atmospheric front gate reveals a bright, tranquil Western-style dining space looking out onto a garden, well-suited to unhurried meals and conversation. Because the multi-course menu takes time to appreciate, booking in advance and allowing plenty of time for your visit is recommended.
