Just really good food

It's been a while since I've had pho and the vegan pho here is far better than any I've had in the UK. I suppose being somewhere slightly more local helps! I had the pho and fried spring roll set which was perfect for a light, refreshing meal that was still satisfying. Only real downside was that it felt a little cramped as it was quite small, but service was fast and the food was good.

Pros: Good food, Fast service, Decent sized portions

Cons: A bit small

OMG best food in Kyoto

The range of vegan and vegetarian food was not huge, but everything was prepared perfectly.
We had fried spring rolls, vegan banh mi, tofu stir fry, sour and spicy vegan beef, rice and our vegetarian had cheese sticks.
Hands down best meal we've had in Japan.
Do yourself a favour and dine here, you won't be disappointed.

Vegan pho was good

Had a really nice vegan pho with fried tofu. There were a handful of other dishes as well, but all quite similar.

Pros: Clearly labelled , Good taste

Cons: Herbs were charged extra, which is a bit strange

So good!!

Love Vietnamese food and it's still so hard to find in Japan. :(
The tofu stir fry plate with spring rolls is very yummy. My husband had the pho which are also very good, but he said it wasn't enough for him.
Everything on the vegetarian menu is vegan except things with egg.

Amazing food!

Delicious vegan options available, plenty of choice including phô and mixed Plate. Fried tofu is also great! Really friendly staff and very chilled atmosphere. Speak great English as well as Japanese, really lovely food and very reasonably priced indeed. It's on the second floor but there is a lift as well as stairs so access is easy!

Pros: Great food , Great service , Very reasonable prices

Great Tofu Vegtable stir fry!

A small place maybe 7 or 8 tables - it’s on the first floor so look out for the Vietnamese flag outside - enter via the lift or the spiral staircase to the first floor. It serves meat and fish but also has a separate vegetarian menu so it was perfect for our mixed group of veggies and meat eaters. The food was absolutely delicious all round - I ordered edamame beans and veg spring rolls to start then the tofu & vegetable stir-fry with rice. The stir fry had a lovely little kick without being ‘spicy’ which was perfect for me although I’m sure you could ask for more chilli if that’s what you prefer. The Asahi beer on tap was cheaper than the Vietnamese beer.
We all had a lovely meal in this cute little place / almost felt like someone’s living room especially with the TV and telephone!! Loved it!! I would definitely recommend this place - great food.

Pros: The tofu veg stirfry was delicious , A cute cosy place, Friendly staff

Great service, good food!

First off, the place is really nice, new and clean. The service was super lovely and attentive too! There is a separate menu with vegetarian dishes, some of which contain egg (but it's mentioned).
Some starters are also vegan by default (like cucumber salad and edamame). The pho was just right with the cold temperatures outside. Generous portion with lots of veggies and tofu, with a hint of spice 😊

Nice pho and spring rolls

Service was good, the waiter speaks English and is friendly. The last page of the menu contains vegetarian meals, everything was pretty straightforward

The restaurant is located on the second floor of a small building, and has a table next to the window with a nice view. The interior has some Vietnamese decorations (including a Vietnam map with its regions), nice little cosy place

Food was okay. Got Pho with spring rolls set. Spring roll was nice, pho had tofu as a topping which was appreciated. The taste was okay, but nothing special

Vegan fried rice with tofu !

They use cubic tofu as a meat substitute and it was really tasty !
Loved the rice paper wrap with peanut sauce! Highly recommend if you are in that area !!
