Yosiya

Stopping at Yosiya during a walk through Sagano, the first dishes to catch the eye are the hot pots and noodle bowls celebrating Kyoto's tofu and fresh yuba (delicate soy milk skin). The Hana Yosiya Yuba Shabu Tofu Hot Pot lets you skim freshly formed sheets of yuba straight from the warming broth at the table, savoring them alongside crisp tempura and rice. For something lighter, the fluffy tofu udon features soft tofu gently dissolved into a house-made white soy milk broth, creating a mild, comforting bowl whose gentle broth is easy to finish down to the last drop.

The wider selection of noodles and set meals is equally generous. Soba with duck meat and Kujo scallions can be ordered hot or chilled, matching savory duck and the crisp bite of local greens to a gently sweetened dipping broth. The Saikyo-yaki set pairs sweet-miso marinated grilled salmon with seasonal hassun appetizers and clear soup, and can also be ordered alongside a simmering tofu hot pot—a satisfying choice for a substantial midday meal.

Catering to the wide array of travellers visiting Arashiyama, Yosiya takes care to accommodate diverse dining preferences. Hearty meat specialties include sukiyaki and yakiniku rice boxes featuring Omi Hime Wagyu beef, alongside a fully plant-based shojin vegan set prepared without animal products, eggs, dairy, or honey, as well as dedicated halal-friendly options.

Open from 11:00 to 17:30, the restaurant accommodates both midday lunch and quiet afternoon meals. With touch-panel ordering and payment options including major credit cards, PayPay, and Rakuten Pay, it offers a welcoming, fuss-free stopover in the middle of sightseeing.
