The story
Bini is an Italian restaurant at 445-1 Sambongicho, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto, awarded one Michelin star in 2026 for high quality cooking.
The restaurant describes its approach as sensing the force and changing character of nature in each ingredient. The hope is that a slow meal, with conversation around the table, makes the day feel richer. Gault&Millau also scored the kitchen 15 in 2026.
The room is small. Private hire covers either the dining room (up to 8 seats) or the counter (up to 6). The course starts at ¥28,870, with tax and 10% service included, and a lunch course from ¥17,550 is offered on weekday Wednesdays only. Prices can shift with ingredient purchasing.
