Japanese
Non-veg
Serves meat, vegan options available. Ask for vegetarian udon. The soups on the menu contain fish, but staff is familiar with vegetarian food (say "no meat, no fish") and will leave out the fish broth. The noodles are freshly made. Also offers vegetable tempura though maybe cooked in shared fryer. Open Mon-Wed 11:30am-4:00pm, 6:00pm-8:00pm, Sat-Sun 11:30am-4:00pm, 6:00pm-8:00pm.

Cute place and delicious food ! - Edit
They added a ''vegan option'' stamp on their menu, and even have some soy sauce and tempura sauce labeled ''vegan'' on the desk. There was a few people in front of me in queue, but it got pretty quick, and they took orders while I was waiting outside. The udon where delicious, and same for the tempura vegetables, I recommend a 100%

Delicious udon and tempura - Edit
Go here!
Read moreGet there early, wait in the queue, it's worth the wait.
The food is delicious, with massive portions and clear vegan options and meat options (which my partner appreciates)
I got the tofu udon (not the vegan version as I eat fish) which was delicious, and huge and the spring green tempura (after the rave reviews on here)
The tempura is tricky to eat but so tasty, especially with the vegan tempura sauce - which is clearly labelled
Such a lovely atmosphere, really friendly staff, they even helped a man who'd lost his family charge his phone
Pros: Delicious food , Tempura , Clear menus

Delicious! Fresh! - Edit
Highly recommend this little place. We had the tofu noodle soup and 2 types of tempura. Really great! They have fresh leaves in their green tea, probably the best green tea I’ve ever had.

Yum! - Edit
This is a small place, with two tables for 4 and maybe 8 bar seats. We arrived at around 17:45 and waited around an hour to be sat. But the food was great! Vegetarian options were clearly marked on the menu.

Don’t miss the green onion tempura! - Edit
Had vegan udon noodles with tofu which were fine (needed some seasoning - they have vegan tempura sauce, soy sauce and curry salt) - but the veg tempura and especially the green onion tempura will be remembered as one of the food highlights of our trip. We arrived at 6pm exactly and got seated immediately but it filled up very quickly.

Udon was ok, tempura was great! - Edit
Arrived at the restaurant at about 18:20 and there was a 45 min wait to get a table. The food arrived quickly after we had been seated though.
Read moreThe tempura with vegan tempura sauce was really good! We tried both the green onion and the vegetable kind, I recommend going for the green onion.
The udon was a bit of a disappointment after reading a ton of positive reviews. The soup was kind of bland and the noodles were a little chewy. With some extra spice and soy sauce the soup turned ok.

Fantastic tempura! - Edit
I got the vegan lunch set with 6 vegetables and simple udon. They even have vegan sauces for dipping. Best veggie tempura I’ve had! It can get a bit busy- we had to wait for 10 mins- but they take your order in line.

Amazing tempura - Edit
This place is such an authentic lunch stop. You sit on a high table watching the chefs cook and then they hand you your food.
Read moreThere were 3 options when we went. The udon soup was so lovely and there are spices on the table if you want to add more flavour.
The tempura Vegtable were amazing and the onion version was like a baji.
We didn't try, but there was also a vegan miso.
Clearly labeled vegan dipping sauces as well.
Bit of a queue to get in but so worth it.
Pros: Great vegan options, Authentic , Lovely staff
Cons: Little bit of a queue
