Kitano Tenmangu Lunch Banner

14 recommended lunches in the vicinity of Kitano Tenmangu Shrine in Kyoto, Japan!

The area around Kitano Tenmangu Shrine is a hot spot for attractive restaurants such as ramen stores operated by long-established restaurants, sushi restaurants opened by veteran chefs, and handmade udon restaurants! In this issue, we introduce the best restaurants for lunch recommended by our editorial department.

1. [Enjoy handmade noodles at Icho Udon.

The owner, who trained at udon restaurants in Kagawa and Osaka, is known for his freshly-kneaded udon noodles made by hand without the use of machines. The owner's recommendation is the Tsukemen (Japanese beef and Kujo leek tsukemen), which uses fresh Kujo leeks from Makimura Noen and black beef from Ginkakuji Onishi, and the tsukemen soup with ginger accent is very appetizing. The new restaurant has high expectations for the future development of its menu. The restaurant is always equipped with picture books and other materials for children, so feel free to bring the whole family.
