Location: in a small lane off Kitsubashi-dori , directly behind the parking lot of the Kyoto Tower hotel annex. The Kyoto Tower hotel annex is 2-3 mins walk from Kyoto main station, and the Post Office. At the corner of Shinmachi-dori , and Kitsubashi-dori , at the hotel, turn right and walk one half block past the parking lot . You'll see a sign for a shop/ building "Nadia," and a narrow alley entrance on the right. That is the lane for Salute restaurant , located in a wooden townhouse Machiya with a sign and menu board in front, right at the bend in the lane. (. In fact, when you are walking past the hotel parking lot, you can see the townhouse behind the lot 's back fence; you just have to go into the lane to get to it, past some other small houses.) The map on this Happy Cow review page really helps! Menu /Ambiance: organic groceries for sale at the entrance , table and tatami seating , view of the back garden. Lunch set or 2 or 3 other vegan meals, such as tofu quiche, or veg curry , approx 900 yen. Smoothies, teas, coffee, sweets, and dinner too. There's an English picture menu. Salute is Friendly and peaceful with Delicious food, quick service , moderate portions. The raw cocoa & cashew smoothie was delish, as was the lunch set.
