Two of those three are 3-Michelin-star restaurants, so it's not a surprise they're fantastic... but for different reasons IMHO. The 3rd has no star but has some of the best seafood I've ever eaten and for a fantastic price.

Nakamura was alright, but I wasn't blown away by the food (at least compared to Kichisen, which is another 3-star in Kyoto and, IMHO, was markedly better). Very nice traditional setting and meal, though.
