La Jolla

Description:

• Here is taste of Southern Californian and South American cuisine in west Kyoto, a little to the north of Nijo Castle. Look out for the red Budweiser sign outside. Though the menu mostly favors meat dishes, vegetarians are catered for too. There is a full bar service with wines, beers and cocktails at reasonable prices to wash down those savory spices. The friendly manager speaks some English to help you decide on orders. The typical Southern Californian ambience is complete with surfboards, palm trees and a picture of Lenny Kravitz and the owner. Southern Californian/Mexican cuisine prevails. Menu items include delicious squid salad, good tacos and nachos with guacamole. La Jolla one of the few Cherry Coke outlets in Kyoto and it does some fine pina coladas, margaritas and import beer.
