What other travelers are saying about Fushimi Sake District (Sake Breweries)
This place was amazing years ago when I was in Japan, and it's amazing now that I visited back! There is so much amazing food to choose from, we got the Unagi omelet, chicken and beef skewers, Ramen, their local craft yuzu beer/cider which was amazing as well, we drank 6 each! They gave us a free sake shot when we sat down, on the house which was really good. As for Sake, we drank Tama, which was very easy to drink and kind of sweet tasting. The servers were very kind and attentive, and were very sweet and kind, that when we were at their gachapon machines trying to get certain sake gachas, they assisted us in changing bills into coins so we can continue our drunker gacha experience. They were cheering us on and getting in on the excitement during our gacha experience. This place needs to be in your itinerary when visiting Kyoto.
Super cool experience with sake tasting. We got to try 18 different sake from the Fushimi village. If you’re into such tasting in general, this is for sure for you due to the distinguishing flavours as well as information. Additionally, you could order different food form surround restaurants, which adds such a cool deal to this tasting. It is because you could pair different food with your sake of choice. Just a tiny little minus point that the food was just average when we were there and unfortunately nothing special.
All in all, I still recommend this place!
We loved it and
Top notch, so far the best ramen in a week in Japan. Also had the 18 Sakes which was awesome. Was a recommendation from a local guide, and for good reason, this place was legit. Super cool spot.
The whole place is a mess. You are offered a complete menu from all the stalls but you CAN NOT order food or drinks from other stalls other than the stall you sit on. The ordering process is a nightmare. The food is subpar and even bad in the case of their abura horse sashimi. Do not try sake here. Walk a bit, there is a better place to try sake with a professional guide around that place or tour the nearby sake factory. 0/10
The food and sake was amazing! We did the 18 different sake tastings for less than 2,500 yen.
They gave you a mat to explain all the sakes and each one was from a brewery near by. On the back of the mat was a map where you could see all the different brewery locations.
After the tasting they give you a discount to a cute shop that sells all the sale you tasted and other sake materials.
