Tempura Endo Yasaka

GREETING

Founded 1885

For over 140 years, Endo has been welcoming guests to its restaurants on the historical and atmospheric streets of the Gion district, Kyoto — offering authentic Japanese cuisine in the heart of the city's most storied neighborhood.

Originally founded as an ochaya teahouse where geisha would perform, we have honored that heritage and status while also continuing to innovate. Endo has embraced new styles and is always striving for new levels of culinary excellence.

Just beyond the precincts of Kennin-ji, one of Japan's oldest Zen temples, our main restaurant lies hidden away on tranquil Yasaka-dori in the backstreets of Gion where overlooked auspiciously by Gojunoto Pagoda.

At all our secluded locations in Higashiyama, whether Gion, Yasaka or Okazaki, we infuse long-held tradition with modern sensibilities while continuing to inherit the hospitality of Ochaya. We are constantly offer new and original dining options that reflect the discernment and talent of our highly trained chefs.
