About

Senmaruya specializes in Kyoto-style yuba hotpot, cooked at the table with tofu skin, vegetables, and mushrooms; reviews describe a vegan set served with rice, tea, and house-made soy milk. The small, quiet dining room has just a handful of tables and sits near Nishiki Market, so plan for a simple, leisurely lunch and consider booking at peak times.
