Tofu lover this is your place 😋 - Edit
We tried the seven different tofu menu wich includes rice and pickles and we really enjoyed it. It is a traditional way to try an amazing quality tofu cooked in different ways. The place is 100% Japanese style and the staff were super friendly. I highly recommend you to try it.

Excellent restaurant de tofu ! 🤝 - Edit
Un repas rempli de nouvelles saveurs avec du tofu cuisiné de multiples manières ! Le restaurant se situe dans une rue des plus touristique et pourtant, lorsque nous sommes rentrés à l'intérieur nous étions seuls. Une gentille dame nous a alors accueilli et présenté les options végétariennes et végétaliennes du menu. Je recommande 🤝

The nice lady asked me if I was vegan when handing me the menu and pointed out the vegan options for me. Everything was delicious. Tofu is truly one of the most versatile ingredients there is!

Tofu tofu tofu - Edit
When I said I was vegan the lovely lady pointed out the options for me. I think I had the boiled tofu with 3 pieces of tofu. It was interesting to try tofu in so many different ways but you need to like tofu - I could have taken or left the boiled tofu. Really generous portion and it's run by what looks like a group of female home cook friends. Enjoyed the experience.

Wholesome place, but pescetarian - Edit
You should announce on arrival if you're vegetarian/vegan. They do take this seriously. They told me the following dishes were suitable for a vegetarian and did not contain fish/dashi. You can cross check this to the menu photos. NB I would also ask whether the soy sauce contains dashi as this comes in certain dishes.

The restaurant itself had a lovely traditional vibe and was staffed with friendly and welcoming older ladies. There's also a tatami area if you prefer to sit here.
Pretty good value for what you get, and you are provided with complimentary matcha tea (I even got a refill!). The fried tofu (agedashi) was delicious.
It might be cash only. I didn't ask to use a credit card.

Tofuist of the Tofu - Edit
Super friendly people running this place. The first thing they asked was if anyone in our party was vegetarian or vegan. Two of the options on the menu were actually vegan and they made sure that we received the correct plating. We had a lovely lunch here and I would definitely come back!

So much tofu variety! - Edit
It was fun to try so many different types of tofu. I enjoyed some of them and was less keen on others but was excited to eat types of tofu I’d never seen before. It was surprisingly filling and the rice that came with the tofu was delicious. The women who served us were lovely and it was a great experience having lunch in a traditional old building in a historic district. I recommend the experience, but I probably wouldn’t eat here all the time as I like a bit more vegetable with my tofu...

For tofu lovers and tofu curious - Edit
Tofu is not really my favorite kind of dish, but we were agreeably surprised by this restaurant. Every kind of tofu is well thought, they have a large panel of taste. Also we would not eat there everyday, it was a pleasant experience.

Traditional Taste - Edit
Was nice to taste so many kinds of tofu (I had the menu with the 7 diffrent ones)
Read moreI liked a lot that you don't have to choose a specific tofu, especially because I don't knew much about diffrent kinds, so it was very nice to taste the diffrent flavours.
I ate at an Temple later, zhe food from the buddhist monks was really equal to this restaurant so I really can recomment it for those who want to find out, how special they can combine diffrent heavy flavours with the decent taste of many kinds of tofu.
Pros: You don't have to choose- you taste diffrent types, Restaurant is in 'shop' district -good location
Cons: The opening times are not so comfortable
