Daikichi Horikawa Takatsuji - Kyoto

Delicious! Chef was also very nice and tried to speak English to us.

Really delicious food and great atmosphere! We were fascinated by the great reviews, and were made for the fresh, delicious food and warm hospitality. This place is casual, small (maybe 15 seats) and cozy. We sat at the bar and looked at us when our food was carefully prepared. We ordered a number of grilled and fried meat plus some pages... all were delicious and cooked for perfection. The owner was really friendly and warm we will definitely be back!

It is rare for me to find a restaurant with a perfect score with feedback from more than 20 visitors. When I was looking for yakitori near the Kyoto station, I found Daikichi with an impressive score, five stars from all 22 visitors (at that time), leaving comments. I told myself I had to try and ask for a reservation for the next day. I think the owner was surprised by the English speaking caller, but the reservation was smooth. Food was great, and I wasn't disappointed. I enjoyed the Yuzu pepper flavored chicken especially and other dishes were also delicious. The owner was friendly. You have an English menu and a Chinese. Be advised that they have several other dishes such as beef that do not show on these menus, but as a Japanese inset in the regular menu or on a kitchen board. You can use Google Translate to get a clue about what they offer or ask directly. Will definitely be back at the next visit to Kyoto.

Fantastic shoots and company! The cook is incredibly friendly and accommodating. Everything is ready to order quickly and relatively cheap, but especially delicious. Understands gluten-free and speak English really well. Would definitely return. Try the chicken skin and the hearts, very delicious.

Food was awesome! We ordered 16 sticks of yakitori plus 2 alcoholic drinks for two persons. Spent ¥2.8k incl tax here. Food is cheap and good. Chef speaks English and is extremely friendly and fun to chat to! Will come back again when we visit Kyoto in the future!
