5 Best Halal Restaurants in Kyoto




Looking for Muslim-friendly restaurants in Kyoto? In this guide, we highlighted the best halal restaurants in Kyoto to help you find all your comfort food.


Halal restaurants might be hard to come by when traveling, especially in non-Muslim countries. Japan is not an exception. Japan does not have a high Muslim population or a huge number of Muslim tourists, so it might be difficult for some to find restaurants that are void of pork and alcohol.


Although there are not many halal restaurants in Kyoto, the good news is the number of restaurants offering halal food options and halal-certified restaurants. And we are here to help you out.
