Hisaya Kyoto Chestnuts

Social Profile:

Hisaya was established in February 15, 2001 in Kyoto, Japan. The first store was opened on September 1, 2001 by the much-acclaimed historic landmark, the Kiyomizu Temple. After a decade of perfecting our work and our pride, we have successfully branched out, established stores throughout Japan, Korean and Taiwan. That very dream of ours is to help rekindle chestnuts as a common healthy household snack/food in the US once again, as well as spreading the trend into the rest of the world.

I recommend the chestnut cake because it had strong chestnut flavor, and a smooth creamy chestnut filling, and the entire thing was served hot. Would definitely order again.

I got hot chestnut milk, I thought it tasted like caramel. I liked that the top was frothed. Would not order again.

Chestnut tiramisu was drier than what I was used to compared to more typical tiramisus. Would not order again.

I got a medium bag of the Kyoto chestnuts, but did not compare with the other type of chestnut. It came out hot, with a slightly dry but not mealy texture. Would order again.

Seating is just two small tables outside with 5 chairs total.

Was looking forward to trying this spot for the Kyoto chestnuts. I guess it didn’t hit the mark imo.

NOTE: Snow Storm is like a MCFLURRY mixing all the flavor together versus the Fiji mountain which is layered and not mixed

FOOD 3/5
Chestnut Fuji mountain – decently delicious but the chestnuts don’t hit the mark
Chestnut Snow Storm – Way too much soft serve, I wish they chopped the chestnuts smaller and mixed it better

PARKING 4/5
Huge shopping complex parking lot with tons of parking

AMBIENCE 4/5
To go ordering only – no indoor seating and there’s two tables outside
Order online also makes it easy!

Hisaya Kyoto Chestnuts – A Delightful Spot for Chestnut Lovers

If you’re a chestnut lover, Hisaya Kyoto Chestnuts is a must-visit spot for a quick bite or a sweet treat. They offer a variety of chestnut desserts, as well as Kyoto and Tianjing chestnuts in different package sizes.

The Chestnut Cake is a standout—it has a fragrant, flaky pie crust, and the chestnut filling inside is freshly made and served hot, creating a rich and comforting bite. The chestnut ice cream is another highlight, blending vanilla and chestnut flavors into a smooth, creamy treat. I’d even say it’s the best chestnut ice cream in LA County!

The store itself is beautifully decorated in traditional Japanese style, featuring a wall of sticky notes where visitors can write their wishes. Since desserts are made fresh to order, there might be a bit of a wait, but trust me—it’s absolutely worth it!

Food/Taste/Flavor: 3/5 – got the tiramisu and chestnut flavored donut. The tiramisu overall was good but the chestnut purée was extremely sweet. We got only about halfway through before it was too much. The donut has a subtle flavor but was dry and almost crumbly

Ambience: 5/5 – very cute and cozy store. The tatami mat area is blocked off but there is a table outside to sit at

Service: 2/5 – very quick and efficient service but the gentleman seemed like he did not want to be there and that we were interrupting whatever he was doing in the back of the store

Value for price: 3/5 – not terribly expensive but unfortunately we didn’t care too much for the desserts

Wow! My parents and in laws love chest nuts so through out the years by default I’ve become accustomed to various chestnuts. My wife and I decided to drop by after dinner and I was blown away by their chestnuts. I especially enjoy the Kyoto chestnut, it has such a robust sweet nutty buttery flavor that I couldn’t just eat one. My wife had the chestnut boba and I had the chestnut latte. Both of which were good, both had a rich nutty flavor to it. Seating is tight as there is limited space in the store. Parking and also be difficult. Great place to get something healthy and different, looking forward to coming back real soon.

Get the black sesame milk! It’s freshly ground and roasted and not too sweet. Their chestnut ice cream is good too.

There’s roasted chestnuts in the US?! Sign me up!

Came for the roasted chestnuts, stayed for the chestnut and vanilla soft serve and the chestnut cheesecake (mont blanc).

Skip the chestnut cookie.

Even the roasted chestnuts were just ok, far inferior to what I grew up eating in Shanghai.

Don’t mind the price given these are Kyoto chestnuts. But when the shells don’t even come off clean from the actual chestnut flesh, that’s just sub-par roasting.

And to add, what a creepy part of the stripmall. Hardly any people around, vacant and empty shops. Sad.

Cakes were tasty, but I couldn’t tell which had what filling until I bit into them. Mont blanc cheesecake was very decadent and a little too sweet to eat more than a bite or two at a time. Packaging is so thoughtful and neat.

One of the few locations anywhere to sell roasted chestnuts. It’s also probably your only pick if you happen to want a Montblanc.

Overall, I really like the chestnuts here. If you’re just looking for a mildly sweet and earthy snack, the roasted chestnuts are a great pick. The Montblanc is quite nice and I appreciate that they use a noodle presser to make the strings like they would in Japan.

I’ve definitely experienced a few Montblancs in the north where they skip that step and it does take away from the texture. Would recommend getting some matcha tea to pair with the sweetness of the cake.
