About this Restaurant

Kisshokaryo Gion Honten, located in Kyoto's Gion district, is a kinako (roasted soybean flour) sweets specialty shop selected as a Tabelog Cafe WEST Hyakumeiten 2025. Housed in a charmingly renovated 90-year-old Kyoto machiya, it offers popular items like its signature kinako parfait and kinako warabimochi. Guests can customize their treats with extra kinako and brown sugar syrup, enjoying the distinct fragrant flavor. Due to its popularity, a ticketing system may be in place during busy times.

Experience our delicately crafted Warabi Mochi with a melt-in-your-mouth texture. Enjoy it with the rich, roasted Miyagi Shirome soybean flour and a silky-sweet black syrup for an exquisite taste. Don't miss out on our refreshing chilled Warabi Mochi, which offers a perfectly smooth experience. During the winter months, we also serve warm Warabi Mochi for a cozy treat!

Warabi Mochi - Kyoto Matcha -

Our signature warabi mochi is made with our homemade roasted soybean flour and refreshing Uji matcha from Kyoto Prefecture. The fragrant roasted soybean flour, which we deep-roast in-house, really enhances the refreshing aroma of the Uji matcha. Feel free to use the special black syrup provided on the side as you like! To fully enjoy the aroma of the matcha, we’ll pour it right in front of you just before you dig in.
