    Overview


    Shoan is a small restaurant located in Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture.
     The shop is nestled in the narrow alleys of Gion and run by a female proprietor.
     Within its tranquil atmosphere, guests can enjoy generous servings of exquisite osouzai (side dishes) and delicious dashi-based oden.
    The menu mainly consists of obanzai (Kyoto home-style dishes) and oden.
     The obanzai, served on large plates, and the flavorful broth of the oden showcase the meticulous attention to detail in their preparation.
     Particularly recommended are the grilled fish obanzai and the mikan (mandarin orange) sake.
     Visitors can also savor delicious Kyoto tea, a specialty of the area.
    The interior of the restaurant exudes cleanliness and is elegantly arranged.
     Even when dining alone, guests can relax and enjoy their meals at the counter seats.
     It is highly recommended to make a reservation before visiting.
    There was no detailed information provided about the chef, so specific details are unknown.
     However, the proprietor works diligently to manage the restaurant single-handedly.
    To reach Shoan, one can easily access it by foot from Gion-Shijo Station on the Keihan Main Line, Sanjo Station, or Kyoto Kawaramachi Station on the Hankyu Kyoto Line.
     There should be no difficulty in finding transportation.
    The restaurant operates during dinner hours from 18:00 to 24:00, staying open as long as there are customers.
     The regular closing day is irregular, so please confirm in advance before visiting.
    There are a total of 16 seats, with 12 counter seats and 4-person table seats available.
     There is also a considerate arrangement where, if a reservation is made for the counter, guests can be moved to the table seats in the back.
    At Shoan, you can indulge in delicious dishes and drinks.
     We highly recommend paying a visit.
