Enjoy casual dining with seasonal tempura and obanzai dishes.
Tempura Obanzai Ishikawa is a popular spot where diners can casually enjoy obanzai (traditional Kyoto side dishes) and seasonal tempura à la carte. The first-floor counter displays a large bowl of obanzai dishes, allowing customers to choose based on their mood whether they want a meal focused on izakaya-style dishes or mainly tempura. An omakase (chef's choice) course is also available by reservation made the day before.
The tempura selection includes premium ingredients like white amadai (tilefish) and kinmedai (splendid alfonsino), along with seasonal vegetables, allowing guests to order their favorites à la carte. The lineup changes with the seasons, providing a simple way to savor the freshest ingredients.
The second floor features a private room available for one group per day, offering a home-party atmosphere. Guests on the second floor start with a set that includes "three types of obanzai," "two types of today's specials," and "a sashimi platter," after which they can freely enjoy additional à la carte dishes.
