Fodor's Expert Review Kyoto Sushi Garden
Elegant and tranquil, this small oasis near the Kloof Street drag serves pricey but beautifully executed Japanese fare. Sourcing as much as possible from Japan, the owner verges on obsessive in his effort to maintain a high standard of both ingredients and technique, evidenced in the lightness of the tempura and the freshness and variety of seafood. The Zen ambience of blond wood and emerald light creates a supremely relaxing setting in which to enjoy dishes like seaweed-and-shiitake salad or sake steamed clams. An unusually diverse range of sushi (by Cape Town standards) can include choice items like sea urchin, big-eye tuna, scallop, and angel prawns. Great cocktails, an impressive selection of sake and Japanese whiskey, and excellent service complete the picture.
