YUM - Edit
We ordered the Dandan noodles, Tonkatsu Ramen, and an egg sandwich. The Tonkatsu Ramen was okay, but the Dan Dan noodles were delicious!! The menu says they are spicy, but as someone who isn’t good with spice it was perfect. Also really loved the egg salad sandwich!

Delicious food - Edit
the egg sandwich really tasted like egg and the ramen were super tasty too. The cakes were okay but not worth the price, especially because they turned out to be super small

This is good Ramen, amen. - Edit
Had the dandan noodles and it was fantastic and creamy, finally some ramen where I don't have half a bowl of food left to slurp up after the noodles are gone.
Read moreThe egg sandwiches are nice too, but had better at vegan mercy factory. Still very good though!

Suberb food - Edit
Suprisingly not very full given the location and food quality. Had an amazing tonkatsu ramen with 2 "egg" sandwiches and chocolate cake. Some of the best tasting food I've had in Japan and the staff super welcoming.

pleasant! - Edit
It was pretty good! I loved the noodles. The lemon paste for the lemon affogato was pretty bitter, which might not be to some people’s tastes.

Good option in the area - Edit
Got the tantanmen, it was pretty good but for me was more like pasta with sauce than ramen, there is almost no broth. The "egg" sandwich was really good, a little bit small.

It depends on what your order - Edit
The egg sandwich, tan tan ramen, lemon affogato and latte were so good 😋🤩 it’d be a loss if I hadn’t tried them.
Read moreHowever, the yuba rice bowl was kind of boring. Tonkotsu ramen was so salty that my tongue became numb after eating it, and I didn’t really like the toppings, especially the red marinated ginger. I couldn’t finish the soup in the end.
And the matcha latte was a bit plain with not enough matcha flavor or scent.

OMG would come back everyday - Edit
It's been now 8years that I have stoped eating fish and I've tried so many false salmon sushi but the texture is never right. HERE IT DOES THE TRICK ! I've never had such good tasting vegan sushis ever especially salmon. I also had the dandan ; my non vegetarian friend said it everything was incredible and the sakura splash is a must-try.
Read moreWe also had Uji-matcha and chocolate cake. It was really good !
I really want to try again their sushis !!!! Would 20000% recommand.
Moreover the owner was super nice and told us about a festival happening 10minutes later in the area !
Pros: Food is amazingly good, The stafg is super nice, Good localisation
