Gyukatsu Motomura Kyoto Porta Branch 牛かつもと村 京都ポルタ店 (How to go, what to expect)

If you’ve been following me for years, then you’d know how much I loveee this restaurant! I usually go to the Osaka branch, but I checked and found out that they have three branches in Kyoto!

Well, there are actually a lot, but this one is right at the station itself.

We had a long day, and I wanted to have a good meal before heading back to Osaka, so I suggested having dinner here.

Usually, I would have to wait a long time before I could get inside to eat (I’d line up before opening time), so I was shocked and happy to see that there was no line here!

Kyoto Porta is a huge shopping and dining complex with multiple levels, conveniently located right next to Kyoto Station

I just followed Google Maps! I had a hard time finding it, but it’s right beside Ippudo Ramen. The store front looks like this.

got this for my journal

We didn’t have to wait long for our food to arrive.

got the 260g 😛
there’s 1 free refill for the rice!

Love how this branch has the stones attached to cables, so you don’t have to keep asking the staff for new gels to keep your plate hot!

Still my favorite for years, and for good reason! I will always, ALWAYSS recommend this restaurant!
