Popular but expensive! - Edit
If you go for dinner and have to wait in line, definetly inform about any dishes that are sold out. I waited in line for nearly 45 minutes and when I finally got to my seat (at around 6:30pm), nearly 80% of all dishes were already sold out. They could have improved on that by telling waiting customers upfront. I compromised and got the deep fried soy, which was the only main course left. It was absolutely delicious, but for a main course the portion was extremely small (only about 8 bite-sized pieces and no veggies) and super expensive. I believe other people had better experiences, but unfortunately I didn't.
Read morePros: The soymeat was delicious, Cozy atmosphere
Cons: Expensive, Food sells out very quickly, Small portions

Lovely view of the river - Edit
A cosy restaurant with a small but interesting menu. We both ordered the Buddha bowl. While it was tasty, for the price, very expensive. The food is good quality, but not AMAZING, which based on most reviews is what we were expecting. The staff appeared miserable- which is often telling of management. No smiling - they just looked like they hated being there. Overall, disappointing, but a good stop to relax and watch the human traffic, while eating some nice food.
Read morePros: Great view, Comfy seating, Good coffee

Lovely little cafe by the river not far from our hotel. Full vegan menu which is always a bonus. Food was really tasty and well presented. Staff were really friendly. A great find and great food if you don't mind paying a little more.

Nice vibes - Edit
This little place has mixed reviews, mainly about the expense. I really enjoyed it and loved the location on the river and the cozy, rustic vibe inside. I got a veg curry and slice of raw cake, while it wasn't huge it was very tasty and satisfying and I thought over all good value for money. I could tell the ingredients were good quality and the feel of the place is that of a healthy eating emphasis, which means over excessive plate sizes wouldn't be right for what they are going for.
Read moreI recommend :)
Pros: Vegan, Cozy with a good view , Delicious raw cakes

Okay - Edit
Personally I found it too pricey and too little food. The location is great (awesome view over Kamogawa) but the menu is really small and would benefit from more variety.
