Amazing for meat eater and vegan partnerships - Edit
Always a dilemma, the meat eater 'want meat!', the vegan wants veg, this place caters for both without compromise and actually I really enjoyed the vegan ramen as I needed to step into hubby mode and polish off the rest of her noodles.

Delicious vegan ramen! - Edit
Delicious ramen and dumplings! I would give five stars if I could. We went twice and it was my non-vegan partner who suggested we return. English menu was helpful. I had both of the vegan ramen bowls. They were both delicious, although I preferred the spicy one. The dumplings were great!

Good option - Edit
Ordered the zesty ramen, not the best I’ve had but still hit the spot. There’s not much in it, would have liked some more vegetables. Was nice and spicy. The gyoza were also pretty good.

Spicy Ramen was Boring - Edit
The spicy ramen was not very spicy and lacked in flavor. For 12 dollars it was not worth it

Ok ramen - Edit
I got the Zesty Ramen, yes it is hot and do not get unless you like real spicy and can handle some heat with ease. The broth was thick and had some flavor but I felt it lacked in comparison to the other vegan broth that they offer. Also the ramen lacked in vegetables and substance, it was just noodles it seemed. Do yourself a favor and skip this ramen, order the other one they offer if you must.
Read morePros: good noodles
Cons: lacks vegetables

Best Vegetarian Ramen - Edit
My best friend and I are both avid ramen lovers, but while being in Japan I’ve found vegetarian ramen few and far between.
Read moreThis place however was by far my favourite ramen I dare say I’d ever had. I had the beaning vegan ramen and it was like ramen with a creamy almost miso tasting soup that was filling and very tasty.
My friend had their specialty meat ramen and wasn’t such a fan of it but it is somewhere I would highly recommend if you are looking for a solid vegan ramen place!
Pros: Lots of vegetarian/vegan options , Customisable ramen by choosing noodle type, Very friendly staff

Great service / good food. Contains peanuts though. - Edit
The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Only giving it 4/5 stars due to not reading online that their vegan / gluten free ramen has peanuts. Other than that the overall experience was amazing and I would recommend. The vegetable gyoza was amazing.
Read morePros: Both vegan and gluten free options. , Great friendly service. , Good location and convenient ordering system.
Cons: Peanuts in the vegan options.

Great restaurant but no good for peanut allergy - Edit
Unfortunately didn’t see there was peanuts in both vegan options until after I ordered but they very easily gave me money back from the machine and I got the gyoza instead which was nice. The people I was with got the soy milk based ramen and both said it was good. The staff was very friendly, helpful and understanding of allergies, making sure they got everything right before they started cooking. Just be aware if you or someone you know has a peanut allergy avoid this place as it cannot simply be taken off the dish (I think it’s in the broth).

Delicious ramen! - Edit
Two choices of vegan ramen - my husband and I tried each and both were delicious. Be warned the Zesty Vegan is super spicy! Pay at the “vending machine” at the front prior to meal. Also has GF noodle choices.

Good vegan ramen - Edit
When you walk into the shop, you have to order from the vending machine to get your order ticket. It's very easy to order from the machine. After you sit down you give your ticket to the staff.
Read moreWe both ordered the Bean-ing ramen, which was a creamy soy-based ramen, and a gyoza side dish. I thought the gyoza were just okay, but nothing great. The ramen itself had a good flavor to it and the noodles were great, however it was way too salty! I think if they made it just a bit less salty, it would have been amazing.
Otherwise the inside is nice and cozy with nice decor, and quite a lot of space.
Pros: vegan ramen option, vegan gyoza
Cons: too salty

我選了soybeans noodles, 上桌有點嚇一跳，因為是像豆乾絲（干絲）口感。有點硬！哈哈😄太特別了。能在京都逛街到21:00還有拉麵可以吃，滿足已❤️
