MK Guide Recommends
Mizai is a temple of Kyoto kaiseki cuisine, tucked away in the serene grounds of Maruyama Park just steps from Yasaka Shrine. Under the quiet guidance of chef Yoshihiro Murata, Mizai has earned the rare distinction of Michelin three stars and global acclaim. The restaurant accepts only one seating per evening, with guests dining together in synchrony, creating a reflective and communal atmosphere. Each course is a poetic expression of the season, executed with masterful precision and served at the elegant counter. With no signage and access granted only by reservation, Mizai embodies the spirit of omotenashi—Japanese hospitality at its most refined. A meal here is more than luxurious; it is a meditative journey through time, nature, and flavor.
