MK Guide Recommends
Sushi Iwa is a long-established sushi restaurant in Kyoto’s Shimogyo Ward, known for its counter-style dining and seasonal approach. Founded in 1960 by Iwao Ōnishi, the restaurant was an early proponent of sushi served as a structured course rather than a casual meal. The menu features locally sourced seafood and Kyoto vegetables, and dishes are often presented on Kiyomizu-yaki ceramic ware that reinforces a sense of place. Sushi Iwa offers set sushi kaiseki courses that follow the seasons, emphasizing classical technique, balance, and quiet attention in an intimate counter setting.
