Kyoto KANI-GIN Kawaramachi Store

We had the all you can eat crab course! It was amazing, a must go for crab lovers. They also had plenty of options that were not crab as well. We had 70 mins of all you can eat for ordering on the tablet, then you have 30mins in addition to finish all your food. It was a great experience

The restaurant boasts all-you-can-eat crab, sushi and soft drinks. There is also an all-you-can-drink option for alcohol. The crab itself is pretty good but the sushi options are scarce and they don’t taste that great either. You are limited to 1 dessert and have to pay extra for butter to use on the crab. On the upside, at least the staff are friendly and the restaurant is pretty clean.

The place is on the fifth floor of the corner building. Take elevator. If you can eat a lot of snow crab, then this is your place. The medium combo (they have small med and large crabs) is plenty since it's all you can eat. We could not fit more than the first batch. It comes cold but I see others getting a grill to heat it up. We also ordered sushi, dessert and other side dishes that are all included in the price. Melted butter is an extra 300y. They give you gloves and all the necessary tools. They have a robot server too. Great fast service! Would recommend.

the snow crabs were BIIIIGGGGG! my son who was a big eater almost gave up, but didn’t! aside from the snow crabs, they had all sorts of side dishes too so it truly is a value for your buck. A must try when you’re in Kyoto!

This place starts you off with a huge amount of crab and the sides dishes are fresh and hot. We got a grill to warm the crab but it makes the crab not come out as easily. It was such a nice place to go to after a long day of walking. It is upstairs so don’t forget to take the elevator.

First time trying all-you-can-eat crab in Kyoto—and I’m blown away! Every dish was delicious, especially the snow crab and tempura. The staff were so polite and made us feel welcome from start to finish. This spot is a hidden gem in Kawaramachi!💕

Extremely disappointed at the food quality of the overall menu choices. Ordered the most expensive AYCE crab including king crab. I can say the king crab was tasteless. It’s just a slab of tasteless protein in your mouth. Definitely not worth this price. I won’t pay this price for this quality of food ever again.

This place is amazing!! All you can eat for a great price. They were on top of their service and gave us free soft drinks/sides with the crab legs. I definitely recommend it. Its also in a great neighborhood so you can go out and enjoy other things after a delicious dinner.
