Set on Tominagachō in Higashiyama Ward, this Gion restaurant builds its omakase around Japanese wagyu and Kobe beef, with all dishes prepared Muslim-friendly. The menu runs to five courses in total, split across two lines: a sushi-and-wagyu pairing and a straight wagyu-beef tasting, each offered in a standard and a Kobe beef premium version.

A typical course moves through a seasonal hassun starter, chilled tofu, steak (either wagyu or Kobe fillet, 100g), a sukiyaki hot dish, and a wagyu or Kobe nikuzushi hand roll, finishing with miso soup and matcha with mini Japanese sweets. The sushi-and-wagyu course substitutes in five nigiri pieces and a salmon-ikura or sea urchin hand roll. Ingredients are described as seasonal, so specific items may vary by visit.

The restaurant is positioned at the luxury end of the price scale, though exact course prices are not listed on the site; these should be confirmed directly when booking. English-language menus are available, and the kitchen markets itself as accessible to first-time omakase diners, rating the experience as moderate in difficulty.

Reservations run through TableCheck, and the restaurant recommends booking roughly two weeks ahead, noting that seating is limited on a given day. The restaurant is open daily from 11:00 to 23:00.
