◆Chabana | Kyoto-born ‘Okonomiyaki & Teppanyaki’

Kyo Chabana Chabana began in 1976 as “Chabana.”

Starting as a small okonomiyaki shop in Nagaokakyo City, Kyoto,
that spirit has been passed down, leading to “Chabana,” and then to “Kyo Chabana.”

The name and flavor, born from our Kyoto origins,
embody the feelings we have cherished over many years.

◆What is Chabana?

Chabana, a traditional okonomiyaki and teppanyaki restaurant originating in Kyoto, is a warm and homey place where you can enjoy traditional okonomiyaki and teppanyaki.

We have always cherished the time spent enjoying piping hot teppanyaki dishes while gathered around the teppanyaki tables in the dining area.

Unpretentious, relaxing, and a place where everyone can naturally smile—that atmosphere is one of Chabana’s charms.

Our signature dish, “Chabana Konomi,” is a beloved and cherished item.

Made with plenty of Kyoto Kujo green onions, the batter is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and topped with grated yam, bonito flakes, shredded nori seaweed, and egg yolk, making it a satisfying okonomiyaki.

The various textures and flavors combine to keep you entertained until the very last bite.

While cherishing traditional deliciousness, it has become a beloved taste that makes you want to come back for more.

◆About Kyoto Chabana. A New Kind of Okonomiyaki & Teppanyaki

“Kyo Chabana” has been delivering a new kind of okonomiyaki and teppanyaki that breaks away from the traditional image of okonomiyaki, offering surprises and enjoyment.
Of course, deliciousness is paramount, but we also value new ideas that will make you think, “I never knew okonomiyaki could be like this!”
Our signature dish is the “Tomato Okonomiyaki.”
Using an original sauce made with whole, carefully selected tomatoes,
it’s poured over a fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth batter combined with fresh cabbage,
making it a visually striking dish.
It has a lightness that almost feels like a salad, yet the satisfying feeling that only okonomiyaki can provide.
It’s a flavor that will easily leave a lasting impression, even on first-time diners.

◆In conclusion

For 50 years, we have cherished the flavors and atmosphere we want to preserve, while also challenging ourselves with new and exciting experiences. This accumulation of experiences has led to the Kyo Chabana we know today.

Cherishing both the goodness of tradition and new flavors,
we will continue to deliver dishes and experiences that will bring joy to everyone.

We hope you will continue to support Kyo Chabana Chabana in the future.
