If you need a quick meal while in the main Southern Higashiyama sightseeing district, this simple noodle and rice restaurant is a good bet. It’s within easy walking distance of Kiyomizu-dera and Maruyama-kōen. Oyako-donburi (chicken and egg over rice; ¥1010) is the speciality of the house.
There is no English sign; look for the traditional front and the small collection of food models on display. In the busy seasons, there’s almost always a queue outside.
