【In 2026, Kyo Chabana Celebrates its 50th Anniversary】
Our story began in 1976 as a small shop named “Chabana” in Nagaokakyo, Kyoto. Over the decades, we have been cherished by many. We have reached this 50-year milestone thanks to the support of our daily regulars, families, friends, and travelers from all over the world.

 

【The Best of Both Worlds: Kyoto Tradition Meets Modern Innovation】
At Kyo Chabana, we value the classic warmth of traditional teppanyaki while introducing creative new ideas to Okonomiyaki. Gathering around a sizzling iron griddle is a perfect way for international guests to enjoy Japanese food culture in a relaxed setting. While we respect tradition, we also love to surprise you with dishes that make you think, “I’ve never had Okonomiyaki like this before!”

For a true taste of Kyoto, we recommend our Matcha Soba Yakisoba or Wagyu Beef Skirt Steak Okonomiyaki.
