    "Service was slow at first, we were stung for 15 minutes, then after a few attempts finally caught their attention and ordered a drink. The lady cooking on the table was pleasant and excellent. The beef was great. All in all, it is a bit of a common and expensive place relative to what is offered. You can also sit at the back of the platform and enjoy your meal in good weather."

    "This shop is located near Kiyomizu Temple. It is worth visiting Kiyomizu Temple to come to this restaurant for lunch. The decoration of the restaurant is very nostalgic Japanese style, so it is very beautiful, and you can taste delicious soy products."

    "Really enjoyed the whole trip! The restaurant offers quality, low-key service in a real "old Japan" atmosphere. We were impressed by the quality of beef in particular, but the overall food was excellent. We recommend Yakiniku Hiro without reservation!"

    "Eat tofu in Kyoto, come to the Shunzheng at the entrance of Nanchan Temple, their signature soup tofu is too weak, tofu is only fragrant! In fact, tofu is not so amazing, but the victory in the careful machine, the fried tofu in the kunbu is breaded with white fruit, the dumpling tea bean milk buried with honey, the rice is full of tofu and broth fragrance, the courtyard is also beautiful!"

    "We decided to have salmon for lunch, this restaurant is the best place to eat salmon. Remember, there is no traditional table with chairs, it is a Japanese restaurant, so we felt very uncomfortable after 10 minutes. The waiter does not speak English"

    "Came here on a whim and there is great food! I love the service here, attentive and friendly. The food is also great. I like chicken oyster sticks, mushroom slide chicken rice and chicken soup the most. All the dishes are delicious. The location of the restaurant is also very good. Just next to Gion Corner! highly recommended!"

    "Lushan Xizhonglang, this one does not have to queue up, this one solves dinner. In the attractions, you can eat the drip shop, the taste is average, the beer accident is not bad.  and Niu Shalang steak boxed rice with soup tofu 7260 yen, come to Lushan must eat tofu drip  and Niuyao steak boxed rice 3630 yen, there are too many fat parts, either snowflakes or fat two steak rice is naturally a little better than the salang steak, inexplicably oily taste.  Pale Al beer 1100 yen casually ordered, unexpectedly not bad, full of citrus flavor."
