Tabeyoshi

Izakaya Tabeyoshi, located in Umezuishinadacho in Kyoto's Ukyo Ward, presents a varied menu centered on fresh seasonal fish. Diners can begin by ordering the day's sashimi or opt for fragrant grilled fish, with plenty of culinary preparations on offer. An easygoing rhythm defines the experience, letting you graze on quickly served small plates of obanzai while waiting for your main dish to arrive.

To accompany the meal, the drink lineup features beer alongside a wide array of sake, extending from dependable house standards to less common finds. In addition to fried items and various small dishes, the kitchen prepares satisfying staples such as pasta and udon noodles, ensuring plenty of hearty choices to round off the evening.

Guests slip off their shoes upon entering the raised tatami-style interior, which offers sunken counter seats where you can stretch your legs, along with tables set further back. It is an accommodating setting whether dropping in solo for a quiet drink or sharing several dishes among a small group. Tabeyoshi is closed on Thursdays, operates in the evening from 17:00 to 23:00, accepts reservation inquiries, and supports smartphone code payments including PayPay.
