OUR STORY

Rooted in
Yamazaki.

Between Kyoto and Osaka,
in the historic town of Yamazaki.

Founded in 1869, Sansyotei has a history as an inn known for its cuisine. Today, our fifth-generation proprietor, 酒井亮, carries on that culinary tradition.

At its heart is our signature tempura, fried in oil offered at Rikyu Hachimangu Shrine. We prepare seasonal ingredients with care, one dish at a time.

Join us for lunch while exploring Yamazaki,
or linger over a meal with people close to you.
