- Mark LeeApril 6, 2017You have to see the mochi pounding! So much fun. Definitely worth stopping by on your way to the park. Don't feed the mochi to the deer--keep it for yourself.Upvote8Downvote
Dan Mondragón SomeraAugust 1, 2018Always a must if you are in Nara. There you can see how the mocho sweet is made (old style) and buy some fresh one. Absolutely deliciousUpvote7DownvoteUpvoted Feb 3
ningstaApril 16, 2019One of the best mochis I've ever eaten. The texture is so chewy. It's called "yomogi mochi"; yomogi is a wild plant that gives it the natural green color, in case you are wondering.😋Upvote5Downvote
Yarn LamJuly 7, 2024Fluffy and soft mochi, the best. Buy one at ¥180 and stand on the opposite sidewalk or elsewhere to savour it. The sidewalk in front of the shop is narrow and gets crowded. Let’s be considerate. :)

joahnnaMay 7, 2017Not a mochi fan but their mochi is really good. Great consistency and flavor. Not rubbery and not too sweet. Plus they put on a good demo.Upvote1Downvote- Judy MJuly 20, 2023Yes try the fresh mochi on the spot! If you are lucky, you may catch the famous mochi pounding during mid-day if they start to run low on mochi!UpvoteDownvote
Kat 🐱December 28, 2019Watch them make mochi live and get a warm fresh mochi for 150 yen.

Alyssa NgApril 13, 2016The yomogi mochi is the best. Eat while it is hot. It is not as nice when you buy some to eat in the train!Upvote1Downvote1
Chris LeeJune 10, 2017Mochi is less sweet and is chewy. But seriously nothing to shout about. There are other better mochi in kyoto. You might need to come early to catch the 'live' show of mochi making session.

᧒𐑵𐑥𐑞੬𐑾ɛ /November 21, 2016内餡和一般乾的紅豆餡不同，這間是帶點濕潤的紅豆餡料，和剛搗好微熱的麻糬口感相當稱配👍👍👍 同時將ヨモギ搗碎加入餡料中帶點淡淡的香氣，和外層裹上的黃豆粉，味道相當雅致。Upvote3Downvote

Kiyomi NariJanuary 2, 2014もちいどの商店街の入り口にその店はあります。店頭で一際目を惹く威勢のいい餅つきパフォーマンス。そのつきたての餅で作るよもぎ餅は黄粉がまぶしてあり、柔らかくて最高！UpvoteDownvote- MaimiSeptember 3, 2018高速餅つきは旅の思い出としてインパクト大。旅行者はつきたてのあんこ入りよもぎ餅をその場で食べるのがほとんどだけど、時間が経ったものも全く変わらず柔らかく、とても美味しい。UpvoteDownvote
高速お餅つき見学の際は、車道にはみ出さないように、お気をつけてください。お店の前の歩道から溢れてしまうことが多々あります(^O^)Upvote2Downvote
つきたてで美味しい昔はなかったけど、いまは昔からあるような感じで有名店になっている。UpvoteDownvote
