Knuckles Restaurant Kyoto

The city of Kyoto features many restaurants serving international cuisine including continental, English and western. The American Restaurants in Kyoto offers a wide array of delectable dishes and sumptuous spread along with world-class drinks and cocktails.

Knuckle's, just opposite Daitokuji temple, is a long established original New York sandwich bar transported to Kyoto. It is great stopover for homesick New Yorkers who seek great home taste.

The wooden décor of the interior with a good, raised view of the street makes it a pleasant place to linger.
On any visit to Knuckles you should sample a few of the following from the varied and well-made menu: rye-bread sandwiches, nachos, bagels and cakes. Imported beers, cool margaritas and good coffees add to the ambience. Average price per person runs about JPY1, 500.
