YESSSSS cold soba!! - Edit
HAND DOWN SLAPPED!
Read moreAfter are day pack of adventure, we returned our kimono to the place next door and luckily this restaurant was right next door with a nice view of lake.
You have to ask for vegan menu. I got the vegan cold soba noodle (5/5) and cold silicone tofu (3.4/5...i like tofu)
Only draw back if they sit you at the bar be prepared the chef will be cutting fish right a hand rack away from you.
Pros: Good vegan option, Nice view, Fun atmosphere
Cons: Cut not vegan food right infront

Excellent option if you are with a meat eater (and also if not!) - Edit
Excellent restaurant with energetic vibe and great range of Japanese food. You need to request the Vegetarian menu but it has lots of options and they carefully checked if I ate dashi or egg. Overall great experience. Totally recommend!

You have to ask for a vegan menu, clearly labeled and very tasty. Staff speaks a bit of english, enough for basic questions. Very nice experience.

Hidden vegan menu - Edit
You have to ask for the vege menu which indicated which are vegan. The tempura soba noodles and side dishes are amazing - we had seconds of the cold soba and tempura! Also recommend asking the staff to suggest a sake! My favourite restaurant I’ve visited so far

Delicious but wanted death afterwards - Edit
There's a vegan/vegetarian menu with stars near vegan items. I ordered the tofu, pickles and tempura soba, all had vegan asterisks. I was asked if I can eat dashi and egg, I said no and they said they would change the ingredients to make it vegan. It was delicious but I nearly puked in their bathroom 20 minutes later. Terrible stomach issues afterwards. Rash all over my neck, which is a new one for me. There's meat or dairy in something!

Be careful of mistakes... - Edit
I feel bad writing a bad review cause it's rare to find restaurants like this who offer vegetarian options in Japan, but some of the staff don't seem to care much for vegetarian guests. The waiters were very friendly and accommodating and made sure they understand what I can and can't eat. I ordered Soba with vegetable tempura from the vegetarian menu and made clear I also can't eat fish broth. You can see the kitchen staff from your seat and since me and my friend were the only guests at the time I knew that the trays we saw were ours. Mine contained shrimp tempura... (Other reviews state the same problem) In my case the waiter noticed the mistake by the kitchen staff before serving the tray to me and the kitchen staff looked annoyed and went back to exchange the tempura for vegetable tempura. When I got my tray the sauce that you dip you soba in tasted "fishy". As the kitchen staff had prepared a fish based tray at first and only exchanged the tempura I assumed they forget to sei6the cup with the sauce so I asked her about it and told her that it tastes like fish. (I'm fluent in Japane, so this was not a language barrier problem) She looked annoyed again, didn't even look at the sauce and just said "no it doesn't have fish in it". I tried again but I'm 99% sure there WAS fish broth in it, so I just ate the soba without using the dipping sauce... It's really a pity as the waiter seemed very eager to get everything right but the kitchen staff seemed just annoyed at the existence of the vegetarian menu. 🫤
Read moreSo please be careful with the food you get and if it tastes like fish, assume that the kitchen staff messed up and it IS fish.

Food was not especially good and other issues - Edit
The food was ok but nothing I ordered felt especially good. We had to wait like 40min after ordering to get our food, even the Edamame took long.
Read moreI got one sushi roll that I didn‘t order and it also was a more expensive one, don‘t know if this was a misunderstanding or if it „happens more often“.
Also the chairs were terrible annoying, they were loud, heavy and uncomfortable.
Ask for Vegan menu.

Super good and super nice - Edit
I had an amazing dinner here. They have a separate vegetarian/vegan menu you can ask for. The staff speaks amazing English, is super nice and also very knowledgeable about they're good and vegetarian/vegan requirements. They double checked with me if egg in the tempura is okay (yes) and if dashi would be okay (no). They brought a special vegetarian soy sauce and reiterated the soba was vegetarian when I was served. It made me feel very safe, as I sometimes get anxious about certain foods not actually being vegetarian.
Read moreThe food was delicious and the yuzu ice tea I had was absolutely amazing!!
I got a small hot tea on the house too. They were just so so nice.
The atmosphere is also fantastic and there's a river view.
It's easy to find, as it's right by Exit 4 of the asakusa station.
I very much recommend this place!
Pros: The staff, The food, The clarity

Very Good! Super Inclusive - Edit
The staff here were very nice—they had a full separate vegan/vegetarian menu, and honestly most things on it were vegan. We also saw them offer someone a halal menu, so they seem very accommodating generally! We got the kake soba (soba noodles in hot broth), grilled shishito, assorted tempura, & yam hand rolls and avocado hand rolls. Would recommend all appetizers (yam wasn’t our thing but glad we tried it) and the kake soba broth was very flavorful. Would also recommend the pineapple non-alcoholic drink & the homemade ginger ale—both great! Overall friendly staff, reasonably priced, sizeable vegan selection, and great view of the river!

Tasty vegan tempura and extensive veggie/vegan menu - Edit
A lovely riverside spot with a good deal of vegan choices on a vegetarian menu (request this when seated). I had the vegan tempura rice bowl which was served with miso and pickles. We also ordered the cold noodles which were tasty too.

Wonderful service with vegan and vegetarian options. The tempura was delicious. I had the assorted vegetable tempura and my husband had the shrimp. He said it was the best tempura he ever had. The service was excellent. The view upstairs is very nice.
