A lively seafood izakaya steps from Kyoto Station, serving bold sashimi platters and regional sake until midnight.

MK Guide Recommends

Just a three-minute walk from Kyoto Station, Otokomae Shokudo delivers straightforward delights in a clean, counter‑and‑table setting. The house‑special sashimi platter, “Otokomae mori,” is a showcase of freshness—often sourced directly from multiple fishing ports. Casual yet thoughtfully curated, the menu spans tempura, Inaniwa udon, grilled fish, and a notable sake list poured via nitrogen system for greater nuance. With room for up to 50 diners and a smoking‑permitted space, it suits solo drinkers, friends, and small groups seeking honest seafood and hearty pours in a bright, unfussy atmosphere.
