Kyoto Kitchen - Mount Vernon

Great food. Best Bento Box I've had in the area! Good service.

Some of the best Japanese food I’ve ever had. Seriously. This is next level. My deepest compliment and respect to the chef.

Kyoto Kitchen is hands down one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Washington State. Every dish is thoughtfully prepared to top quality.To new comers I recommend,Show up early to avoid missing out on items like the shabu shabu, be kind to the staff here, call ahead if you have a large party. Parking: Parking for dine in and pick up is easy here

A well known local Japanese restaurant hidden in this classic cottage. We have two lunches on two consecutive days, because we found out that the owner is moving back to her home country, and will change to new management after Christmas, and we have so many things we want to try.On the first day, we chose a bento box lunch and a sashimi set. Their qualities are good, teriyaki chicken is tender, and veggie tempura are fresh with light coating.We tried shabu shabu on the next day, customer need to pre order it one day before. They just use the very simple Kumbo broth to bring out the natural favour of ribeye and other ingredients, the portion is good for sharing, All other dishes are nice and yummy.Many old customers come and farewell the owner, who is busy training up new owner's team, I hope the new management can keep up their standards.

Was a little worried when we arrived and it was pretty empty and there was no lunch menu. However we ended up being really pleased with the food, service and large portion sizes. It was very quiet inside if the owners could add some ambient music it would improve the atmosphere. Will visit again!
