Jurakudai near Kyoto Station | Kyoto Cuisine and Sasaki Shuzo Sake
The menu focuses on Kyoto cuisine, presented in a relaxed bar atmosphere. With fresh fish delivered daily from the fishing port, you can taste seasonal deliciousness in both sashimi platters and à la carte dishes. Kyoto duck (duck meat produced in Kyoto) is also a major highlight, available in various preparations such as a platter of five kinds of skewers, duck and yuba (tofu skin) shabu-shabu, and seared duck. The duck meat has moderate fat and a rich aroma, which, when paired with silky Kyoto yuba, creates a distinct layering of textures. The Kyoto duck leg skewers with Kujo green onions are tender, juicy, and leave a lingering, memorable taste.
Seasonal dishes change with the spring, summer, autumn, and winter. If you enjoy seafood, the daily fresh-delivered sashimi platter is definitely worth a try, especially the summer pike conger paired with plum sauce; it is sweet, sour, and appetizing, making it hard to stop at just one bite. There is also Binchotan-grilled domestic eel topped with roasted sea urchin and Japanese pepper, or the magnolia-leaf grill featuring Kyoto duck paired with seasonal Kyoto Spanish mackerel and Tanba mushrooms, served with Gion-style miso. These dishes do not pursue flashy presentation, but rather prioritize the flavor of the ingredients themselves.
Sake from Sasaki Shuzo is the soul of this establishment.
The advantages here lie in the fresh ingredients, the diverse sake selection, and the sense of space in the renovated machiya—warm wood and soft lighting, making it very suitable for sitting for a long time. The overall cost is approximately four thousand to six thousand yen, depending on the dishes ordered, which is suitable for diners who want to enjoy a Kyoto-style meal away from an overly commercial atmosphere.
Jurakudai reinterprets the role of the ‘local izakaya’ near Kyoto Station, which is often overlooked, by combining the expertise of the brewery with Kyoto ingredients. Order a plate of seasonal Kyoto duck or fresh fish, pair it with a glass of Sasaki Shuzo sake, and you can clearly experience the wonderful relationship between food and drink during your night in Kyoto.
