This was my first visit with a friend. The delicate flavors of Kyoto-style cuisine didn't quite match my preferences.In particular, during the first half of the meal, I struggled to appreciate the flavors of the dishes or the ingredients. It felt like adding salt just made it salty, soy sauce just made it taste like soy sauce, and ginger just tasted like ginger. I found myself wondering what I was actually eating.However, the beef simmered with rice and the curry served at the end were packed with flavor and very delicious. Perhaps that contrast contributed to the high rating.Additionally, it's rare for a restaurant like this to offer a modest portion size in their courses. Personally, I preferred this over a heavy meal, but it might divide opinions.Considering the lack of high-end ingredients, the bill was still quite substantial, so I think I might prefer to visit other Japanese restaurants.
