Cozy atmosphere

Apparently daily changing menu.

I ordered the lunch of that day. The meal was nicely arranged on the plate and the taste was special to me.
Also the staff is fluent in English and I like the atmosphere of that place.

Update: This time I tried the French toast and it's delicious. Comes decorated with fruits and flowers.

They also have kinako soy latte.
If you didn't have kinako before, you should try it. The taste is similar to peanut butter.

Best meal in Tokyo

This was the best vegan meal I had in Tokyo. I got the vegan bean patty in one of the vegan sauces. I had the vegan chocolate cake and American coffee for dessert. This place uses lots of fresh fruits and vegetables in their food, which is a rare find in Tokyo. It was on the more expensive side, especially for lunch, but well worth it for the quality of fresh vegan food. It is right next to Senso-Ji Temple, so a good place to eat if you are near the temple. I would definitely return if I’m in the area again.

Pros: Fresh fruit and vegetables, Great location in Asakusa

Cons: Semi-expensive

Very yummy and pleasant

The restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere. It is modern and relaxed. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating, and speaks English well. The patty with tomato sauce was delicious. Even the vegetables seemed more tasty than vegetables usually are. I almost never eat my vegetables but I ate all of them! The desert was just as wonderful and the fruit on top seemed to have the same special yumminess. It was so nice to eat vegan food and watch tye shoppers walk past the window. A highlight of my trip!

Very good value for the price

The food was lovingly plated and tased wonderful. It has an elegant feeling, but not stuffy as it was pretty casual. The vegan homemade bread had a nice crust with just enough crunch and a soft interior.

A little expensive but really good food.

There are vegan options with no garlic/onion/leek etc—pure vegetarian diet. Quiet environment and accepts American credit card.

Highly recommend

Not the cheapest, but vegan actually on the menu and the food was amazing - tasted good and presented beautifully. They had a vegan pannacotta on special which was great. Would give five stars if HappyCow let me! (Not allowed as they serve meat).

Worth a Visit if You’re Near the Area

This restaurant only serves two vegan options: the Veggie Patty with Tomato Sauce and the Veggie Patty with Soy Milk Sauce. Each meal comes with one side (rice or bread). I tried the first one and it was delicious—definitely a hearty meal! The cafe itself is cute and trendy.

Pros: Delicious , Healthy

Cons: Only two options available

They are talented

They cooked everything perfectly & cooked it with the thought in mind of texture and taste layers. Everything was so fresh and the ingredients were great quality. The cafe is cute and friendly. They are halal certified and the staff speaks perfect English. They have an upstairs for prayer and breastfeeding. Many English speakers were there when I went so nice place to meet new people. Also, the quality and choice of ingredients do fill you up.

Pros: Yummy, Presentation , Clean

Cons: Only 2 options

Although there are only two vegan options (which are similar), the food is extremely fresh and flavorful. Coffee is good as well, but expensive.

Pros: Wifi

Cons: Expensive coffee

Fancy food!

Was not expecting this food when we turned up! There was only 1 vegan/vegetarian option (both veggie patty but vegan one was with soy milk sauce)
When I saw veggie patty I presumed it was going to be a burger but got 2 tiny patty’s with a couple of leaves and flowers! Tasted nice though and wasn’t expensive

Pros: Beautiful plate

Cons: Only 1 option

Best place in Tokyo

We ate here for our first meal in Tokyo and it was amazing. We had the soy cutlets and karage, the mixture on the plate was so yummy, we came back to have it again another day! Lovely little cafe! Must try!

Easy and Convenient

Easy to find and welcoming staff.
Most of the menu was blanked out, so this is a veggi-burger place really - but probably the best veggi-burger I've ever had, and an tasty salad to go with it. Was initially disappointed with the choice but amazed by the quality and taste. Great surroundings as well.

Pros: Great tasting food

Cons: Limited menu

Nice Veggie Burger

Nice place that does a good veggie/ vegan burger. The place is fairly easy to get to from Senso ji and the staff speak English which is helpful. The menu needs a little updating as many things they don't sell anymore (which are blanked out). It makes many of the other reviews below a little outdated as a result. But worth going if you are after a veggie option.

Great restaurant with something for everyone. Easy for vegans and vegetarians to find something, and a good place to go with people who do eat meat as well. Totally halal restaurant with no animal products used in any seasonings. Great location and friendly staff who speak English.

Good choice of vegan and vegetarian food

Very close to the Senso-Ji temple, with an English menu and lovely, English-speaking staff, this restaurant caters for vegan, vegetarian and halal eaters .
We had a veg burger and a (vegetarian) pizza, plus the tofu chocolate gateaux which was delicious.
All the food was delivered quickly, very tasty and reasonably priced.

Pros: Good range of vegan options

Cons: None

Really bland veggie burger

This was my first vegan meal in Japan. I must have ordered the wrong thing since everyone else gave this place four stars. The veggie burger had a whole menu page dedicated to it so it seemed recommended.

Maybe I'm spoiled by California veggie burgers but I thought it was awful. Bland, weird texture, and the lettuce and tomato on top were poor quality by Japanese standards. The staff was nice and there was more on the menu so maybe you'll have better luck. This was my worst meal in Japan.

Pros: Nice staff

Cons: Awful veggie burger, Serves meat

Nice vegan friendly place

It is a good place if you are looking to eat something in the areas as they are not many vegan options around.
Food was good (they are vegan friendly even if is not their main intention) I like the concept of eating clean an organic and they have food for everyone.

Pros: Good food, Friendly staff , Food for any diet

Cons: Vegan options limited
