Cute restaurant/airbnb/laundromat

On our rounds of Kyoto's temples, we stopped here for lunch, and there was a lot of choice! Albeit some items were unavailable and others a bit expensive, it was delicious and cozy. They know that a lot of their customers come from Happy Cow and are very accommodating to (and inquisitive about) all allergies/aversions

Pros: Variety of add-ons for each dish, Dessert on the menu and vending machine outside

Cons: Tad expensive without any add-ons

YUMMY AF

The ramen was delicious ! The gyozas were also amazing. The drinks were overpriced though. Plus it is located in a shabby building, the laundry is visible so it really decreases the enjoyment of the experience …

Cons: Building , Interiors

Best Ramen

Title says it all. Of the two visits to Kyoto I was aware of this place, I managed to go an insane amount of times. Twice in one day, dinner for multiple days in a row, you name it. It isn’t a traditional ramen flavor, but that’s part of what I makes it so incredible. I could go on forever about this place, try it if you have the chance. For your first time if it’s within your budget get the dandan ramen with the rice and vegan cheese for after you finish your noodles. Croquettes are great as well. All gluten free. Sometimes there is a wait so go during less busy meal times if you can. Enjoy!

Pros: Flavor, Gluten Free, Presentation

Very tasty ramen

The creamy soy milk ramen were good! I love that they come with steamed gyoza inside! The yakuzen and veggie combi is questionable tho.
I also really liked the modern Japanese interior. The classic music didn't really fit this, tho ...
The Ice-cream came in a cute little hedgehog and was sooo good!
The vending machine with vegan in-house sweets in front of the shop is very unique.

Best ramen in kyoto

Really unique taste ! Best ramen in japan ! But they were the most expensive .. we paid 70$ (canadian) for 2 ramens, gyozas and 1 dessert, which we usually paid around 40$.

Un peu décevant

Restaurant plus cher que la moyenne, et les ramens ne sont pas exceptionnelles. La sauce au lait de soja est un peu fade et il y avait vraiment trop de salade/verdure dans le plat, cela couvrait les autres goûts et textures.
Mon mari (non vegan) n'a pas aimé du tout son plat.

Decent ramen, a bit expensive

We tried soy milk ramen with soy sauce (~2,100 yen) and Dan Dan ramen (~2,300 yen). Note that much of the menu was a lot more expensive (items in 3,000 yen range). Dan Dan ramen was very flavourful and Soy milk soy sauce ramen was good. Both had 2 really tasty dumplings inside and other interesting toppings . Coming from Canada where there is lots of good vegan ramen, this didn’t blow my mind. But it was a good meal. Note that the shop seats about 15 people at once. We had to wait about 30 min for a table at 7:30 pm on a weekday during golden week

Pros: Decent ramen with interesting toppings , Incredible dumplings in the ramen

Cons: expensive

Lecker, große Auswahl

Es gabe viele Ramen und nebengerichte. Auch Nachspeisen.
Ein bisschen teurer aber gut.
Als wir gekommen sind mussten wir vor dem Laden warten, wir wurden aber schnell rein gerufen.

Ramen muy original

Me gustó muchísimo, le pongo 4 estrellas porque los tiempos de cola son una locura y los gestionan un poco regular. Un poco caro pero teniendo en cuenta todos los ingredientes que lleva el ramen y la presentación merece mucho la pena. El ramen en sí no es TAN caro para el tiempo de preparación que conlleva, pero te hacen pedir una bebida obligatoriamente y ahí es donde se te va el presupuesto. Tienen una máquina expendedora de postres veganos sin gluten fuera, esa sí que no la recomiendo, compré un pastelito de frutas y no estaba muy allá.

Family dinner

Small ramen restaurant in Gion. Other things on the menu, our kids had croquets.
You may have to wait for a table
Beautifully presented.

Really good!

Really good ramen and gyoza. There was a line outside, so you have to wait but it was worth it. They have a few different Ramen dishes and some side dishes like gyoza. All really flavorful. Unfortenutly the prices are a bit high for japanese standards but so are the prices in ghe rest of the area.

Pros: Good food, Friendly staff, Food arrives quickly

Cons: Expensive, Bit of a wait to get a seat

Flavorful Ramen

Tucked away in a shared building with a laundromat, this simple vegan ramen spot packs the flavor! I really enjoyed my ramen, the broth was flavorful though I wish there was more tofu or protein.

Friendly place with some fresh and healthy options

Uno Yukiko specializes in noodle bowls with soymilk-based broths (which are flavorful though a bit too salty for our taste), and also offers a few other options worth considering, including allium-free options. The steamed gyoza were fresh and had good flavor. They have some good brown rice bowls, too.

Veganes Ramen

Das vegane Ramen war sehr, sehr lecker. Auch der Nachtisch Creme Brulee war sehr lecker. Die Bedienungen waren nett. Das Restaurant sieht sehr schön aus. Es war so lecker. Die Schuhe müssen ausgezogen werden, dass ist nach einem Tag mit vielen Schritten wohltuend. Stellen Sie sicher, dass sie vorher reservieren. Das Restaurant ist sehr beliebt - zurecht. Danke!

Unmissable

You'll find some delicious vegan Japanese dishes here. Queues are to be expected as it's a very popular place.

Top-Tier Ramen in Japan – Pricey but Worth It

We had read that there's usually a wait at this place, but we got lucky around 4 PM—no line at all and we were seated right away.

We tried two different ramen dishes: the Soy Milk Ramen “Hana” and the Soy Milk DanDan Noodle “Tsuki Hana,” along with two croquettes and steamed gyozas. For dessert, we had crème brûlée and matcha ice cream. Everything was absolutely delicious—hands down the best ramen I've ever had. They also have a variety of seasonings on the table to experiment with; the Japanese black pepper was especially nice!

There's free Wi-Fi, and you can order through their website by scanning a QR code at the table. At the end, you just take your table card to the cashier to pay.

We spent 7300 JPY for two people, which is on the pricey side, but I’d say it was worth it.

Pros: Amazing ramen – best I’ve ever had, No wait at 4 PM, Friendly staff

Cons: A bit pricey

Average

Mediocre ramen soy noodles were unavailable which was disappointing. Fried gyozas were good. Expensive for plain noodles.

Overrated and overprice

This place is famous so you'll have to wait A LOT if you don't have a reservation. I waited for about an hour. I thought the ramen lacked some flavour but the noodles were nice. Plus it was quite pricey for a ramen bowl. I don't think it's worth the hype. They also have vegan desserts and if you fill out their survey you get a free chocolate pudding but unfortunately it was not tasty at all.

Pros: Topped with fresh veggies, Soy milk based ramen

Cons: Long wait for seating, Expensive

Tasty food and nice location - but a bit pricy...

The staff was really friendly and the food was great!
But the prices are a bit high in my opinion (e. g. 2 100 ¥ for one bowl of ramen).
And it can be a bit cold on a rainy day...

Pros: nice food, many tasty options

Cons: overpriced

Absolutely delicious and overflowing flavour

Fresh, fast, super interesting flavours and ingredients.
For vegan ramen it may seem a little pricey but the abundance of ingredients and balance of flavours makes it worth it.
We tried the Hanna, Dan Dan, fried Gyoza. We did add ons and got the creme brûlée.
My only reason for not giving 5 stars is there was some nut some where in the dishes and I hived up. There was too much of a language barrier to understand each other. But not their fault I do not know Japanese and they were super busy, they just need clearer labelling.

Pros: Packed ingredients , Interesting , Tasty

Cons: Labelling was unclear

Good ramen, but overpriced

The tsuki hana ramen were tasty, but I did think that the price is quite steep (2100 JPY) and not entirely worth it. It comes with rice noodles, I think, which I didn't love. Just one restroom in the restaurant, had to queue for ages.

Cons: Rice noodles I think

The gyoza were incredible! Lots of options for any dietary need. A great place to stop at by yourself or with a few others.

Veggie loaded Ramen

I was a tad apprehensive about soy milk ramen as I usually don't like the taste of soy milk in beverages but this one was just excellent. We had the Dan Dan and it is not to be missed. The Soy croquettes were a revelation, melt in the mouth yummy! The ramen was topped with 15 types of veggies and gyoza.
The price was on the higher side but I was just glad to get vegan food.
There is a cool vegan cake(frozen) vending machine outside the store!
The staff was friendly and prompt

Pros: Loaded with veggies
