About

Tosuiro serves multi-course Japanese tofu meals in a Taisho-era townhouse in Gion, with counter seats and an interior garden. Book the vegan course ahead: dishes range from yuba and boiled tofu to seasonal vegetables, and the house tofu pot is refilled during the meal; reviewers describe the experience as carefully presented but pricey.
