An exclusive Chinese restaurant in Kyoto serving elaborate multi-course meals inspired by traditional imperial banquets.
MK Guide Recommends
Hakubi is a reservation-only fine dining restaurant in Kyoto’s Higashiyama area, offering a theatrical interpretation of the historic Manchu–Han Imperial Feast. The experience unfolds as an extended, multi-course menu that often exceeds twenty dishes, drawing on classical Chinese banquet traditions while incorporating contemporary technique and premium global ingredients. Courses progress deliberately, balancing richness and contrast rather than functioning as standalone plates. The setting is intimate and stylized, reinforcing the sense of occasion and narrative pacing. Hakubi is best suited to diners seeking a highly structured, concept-driven meal that prioritizes immersion and ritual over casual dining or regional authenticity.
