Nice Ramen - Edit
Pay 2000 yen for a vegan ramen, then add 200 yen for an egg. Not that cheap for a

El mejor ramen - Edit
Pedí el ramen tonkatsu y sencillamente me pareció espectacular. Diferente a otros ramen que he probado hasta la fecha. El caldo es sabroso pero sin ese sabor intenso a salsa de soja.
Read moreViene lleno de toppings. El lugar es bonito y con decoración cuidada. El staff es muy atento. Volvería sin duda.

Great Ramen - Edit
We came here for lunch, when it wasn't really busy. Food came out fast, and the staff was friendly😄Not fully vegan, but more vegan Ramen options than non-vegan. Beith, noodles, and toppings were really good and fresh.

Best Ramen I’ve had! - Edit
A lot of places only have miso plant based options but this place has 4 different options! I got the tonkotsu and it is easily the best ramen that I have had! I wish I could come back but we’re only here for the day.

Good solid option - Edit
The ramen was high quality and the menu was very clear in listing ingredients. Wasn't my favourite ramen but if you are visiting Nara this is a great option close to the station. Lovely setting and friendly staff

Tasty vegan ramen options - Edit
I'd been to the branch in Osaka before and was keen on trying the tomato broths but they weren't on the menu at the moment.
Read moreI got the tonkotsu and my partner got the syoyu tonkotsu and we enjoyed them. The broths were full of flavour and they were nicely topped. The tofu was excellent and the nori packed more flavour than I've ever had from seaweed before.

Vegan friendly but not flavorful - Edit
This was my least favorite of the vegan ramen that I’ve had while I’ve been in Japan. I ordered A, the miso ramen. It will work in a pinch. Also a bit pricey.

Good ramen - Edit
There were 4 vegan options I think. I had the vegan miso ramen. It was good. I liked that there were quite a few vegetables in the dish. Besides, the tofu was quite good! The price is a bit higher as this restaurant is close to Nara Park.

Very tasty and convenient - Edit
The vegan tonkatsu ramen I ordered was delicious, the staff was friendly, and it was conveniently located. The pop songs (Greatest Showman, Ed Sheeran, etc.) clash with the atmosphere a bit, but hey- they’re enjoyable.

Amazing - Edit
This place saved me on many occasion in Nara as a lot of other places were closed often or out of the way.
Read moreI tried the tonkotsu, shoyu, and shoyu tonkotsu and all three were incredible.
A protein source, a variety of veggies and wholewheat noodles makes this a rare balanced meal for vegans in Japan, and a great portion too.
The staff are also incredibly friendly and they have free WiFi.
Not to be missed in Nara.
Pros: Amazing food , Big portion , Super friendly staff

Go to this place in Nara - Edit
It's solidly good Ramen. Really delicious. Happy I went. A bit pricey but worth it but the price makes it three and not four stars for what you get. Cost was 1800 yen for the vegan option -- not bad but not four stars for that price point. Ingredients were all good and tasty. Service was nice. Food presented elegantly.

A bit pricy for what it is. My noodles were too soft and my broth could’ve been hotter… But overall a nice place and taste was good.
