[Must-see for mackerel lovers!] Exquisite mackerel sushi in Kyoto! Now newly reopened in Gion!

If you go to Kyoto, you should try the Kyoto sushi. The recommended restaurant is "Izuju", which has been in business for 100 years. It reopened in 2023 and had a wonderful atmosphere! ✨ - - - - - - - -【Recommended Menu】- - - - - - - - ◾️The most recommended is "Saba Sushi"! It is wrapped in kelp, which you remove and eat, and it was the best saba sushi with a thick and fatty texture.✨ If you want to eat it with other things instead of just mackerel, there is also an assortment set☺️ →I ordered the set! If you only want mackerel, it would probably cost ¥2,350 for 6 slices! ◾️Set Menu If you want to try various sushi, you can also order the assortment set. I ordered 3 mackerel and 4 horse mackerel. (¥1,775) But the mackerel was more delicious than I expected, so I'm a little disappointed that I could have just had mackerel sushi 😅 ◾️ Upper box sushi It's been a popular menu since the Meiji era 👏 It was colorful and delicious, with thick omelet, shrimp, small sea bream, cockle, etc.! *When I went, the cockle was not good, so they had conger eel instead! The price was ¥1,700! - - - - - - - -【Caution】- - - - - - - - The amount of rice is surprisingly large, so you'll be full lol If you want to enjoy sweets after the meal or eat while walking around, it might be good to just have one menu! - - - - - - - -【Waiting time】- - - - - - - - It's a very popular restaurant, but even in the afternoon, I waited about 20 minutes💦 There were only about 6 or 7 seats in the restaurant💦 There is a bench in front of the restaurant, so I'm grateful that I can sit and wait🙏 - - - - - - - -【Store information】- - - - - - - - Store name: "Izuju" Address👇 292-1 Kitagawa, Gion-cho, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto Located near Yasaka Shrine in Gion.
