Dining

Inspired teppanyaki blending tradition and innovation.

At Yasaka, Park Hyatt Kyoto’s signature restaurant, diners will enjoy a distinctly new type of teppanyaki cuisine showcasing various French-inspired cooking techniques which unfold from the open-kitchen stage that is Japanese “teppan”, a steel hot plate.

Set to breathtaking views of Kyoto City from Yasaka Pagoda to surrounding mountains, Yasaka offers an inspired culinary experience that blends tradition and prestige.   

The stone steps of the old garden lead to Kyoyamato, a traditional ryotei and culinary institution serving authentic, seasonally-inspired kaiseki cuisine that dates back to 1877, during Japan's Meiji Era. Kyoyamato, a family-run business which has persisted for six generations, consists of several historic buildings including "Soyotei," a storied teahouse from the Edo Era, a private room where feudal warlords would secretly meet. 

Dining with a connection to the neighborhood and community. 

A casual street-side café located in the bustling heart of Higashiyama, Kyoto Bistro features international and Japanese comfort food crafted à la minute in a lively, open kitchen with locally-sourced and organic ingredients. A special display counter prominently features a variety of pastries and cakes to enjoy during midday, paired with craft coffees and teas while overlooking the charming pedestrian streets and shops of Ninen-zaka. All dishes are served on exclusive, handmade earthenware created by Asahiyaki, a local pottery master with a heritage of over 400 years based in Uji, introducing diners to the region’s subtle beauty. Kyoto Bistro’s dynamic, all-day friendly and fun atmosphere is perfect for everyone, whether visitors or locals. 

An inviting lounge space where guests gather and relax.

The Living Room is the heart and hearth of Park Hyatt Kyoto’s luxury guesthouse. Designed to make one feel at home, this welcoming, naturally-lit environment is where guests can enjoy Park Hyatt Kyoto’s original  five course Afternoon Tea menu served with carefully selected tea pairing and snacks.  Amidst the open fireplace and bar, the aroma of Tamo wood lingers.

Where ritual and craft meet cocktails and spirits.

Kohaku is an intimate and refined bar adjacent to Yasaka. Offering dramatic views of Yasaka Pagoda through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, Kohaku creates a warm yet classic atmosphere with its dark woods and leather textures. Collaborative partnerships with select, Kyoto-based artisans of whiskey, sake, and gin enable Kohaku to offer guests a curated collection of rare spirits and craft products.
