Traditional style interior design - Edit
Great place for dinner with friends or to bring visiting colleagues if you want an ambiance of a traditionally feeling restaurant with a tofu theme. We tried many of the tofu options including tofu cheesecake and tofu tiramisu. We also tried the seasonal tomato tofu. Vegetables used are seasonal and organic and service is great! English menu also available.

Made for tofu enthusiasts - Edit
This place is very cool. It's quite a nice restaurant and focuses most of its dishes on tofu. They have several vegan options. They make their own inhouse tofu right at your table. Our cocktails were incredible so we ordered them twice. The tofu skin sashimi is very good and so is the deep fried soft tofu. The tofu gelato is cool, it tastes like tofu which threw me at first but it's quite nice. I love tofu ( as most vegans do) and was in love with both the look and feel of this place as well as all the food we tried. Highly recommend.
Read moreOn a side note, we got in without a reservation after waiting about 10min but the place was busy. We saw two other groups get seated without a reservation but they also waited 10-15min. I think people recommend getting a reservation, if you can.
Pros: Unique experience , Beautiful ambiance , All about tofu

Fried tofu is a must try! - Edit
My friend and I spontaneously visited this restaurant, and we're glad we did. We tried some of their vegan-friendly options - handmade tofu, fried tofu, dengaku, and tofu gelato. Some dishes labeled 'vegetarian' might not be entirely vegetarian-friendly due to bonito stocks (だし). Make sure to inform the staff about your food preferences!

Best tofu I've ever had! - Edit
A restaurant that is centered completely around tofu, basically heaven! I and my carnivore cousin both really enjoyed the food and they somehow managed to make the taste and texture different in every option. Also the atmosphere was really nice and combined a traditional and modern feeling very well.
Read moreNote that portions are quite small, so best to order plenty of different options and share with company.
Around ¥3000-4000 per person (which is really good for what you get)

Creative tofu dishes - Edit
Great cozy place where the dishes revolve around tofu / soybean products. The dishes are creative and very tasty and the atmosphere and seating in the restaurant is very nice. The price is also very affordable in my opinion compared to western restaurants. They have an English menu so be sure to ask because the Google translate may not work greatly with their handwritten Japanese menu.

A whole fluffly experience - Edit
You have to love tofu to be able to enjoy a place like this, but the options are overwhelming! I was in heaven.
Read moreThe atmosphere with dim lights, the waterfall and the semi-private seating makes it feel like it's going to be crazy expensive, but the price is really affordable for any occasion.
The place is a bit far from the station and hard to find (Google Maps doesn't show the right route), and I wish the desserts were vegan (the tofu cheesecake has actual cheese/milk in it... Why, Japan??) #Veganuary
Pros: Reasonable prices, Fancy af, Tofu everywhere
Cons: Hard to find, Non-descriptive menu

Lovely atmosphere and presentation of dishes - but the desserts are NOT vegan - Edit
I love the dark lighting and the sound of the waterfall - it made a very peaceful and cozy atmosphere. My favorite dishes contained yuba (tofu skin), and I loved the tofu dango and yuzu cocktail.
Read moreThe waitresses were very helpful in checking whether individual dishes were vegan.
The menu might be difficult to read as it contains many kanji. Also, the desserts contain milk, so unfortunately I didn't eat dessert (although I wanted to try the tofu cheesecake!).
Pros: Nice atmosphere/mood, Great presentation of dishes , Yuba and dango
Cons: Small portions (don't come too hungry), Non-vegan desserts only

Imagine a world where everything is made out of tofu... ;) - Edit
A group of vegan and non-vegan enjoyed a variety of exceptional dishes.
Read moreThe menu was limited (these are difficult times, after all) but in the end I was able to pick a few vegan options.
Normally the menu - in both Japanese and English - has clearly marked "veg" options. As per previous reviews, do ask if they're fully vegan or if they could be made vegan - this might be best to request in advance to avoid disappointment / confusion.
Avocado tofu is not what you'd expect!
Pros: A variety of forms and flavours like never before, Clearly marked "veg" options, Good service
Cons: "Veg" doesn't necessairly means "vegan"

Great tofu and easy to get vegan - Edit
Really nice and lots of vegan options. The fresh tofu and sesame tofu where amazing!
Read moreSome of the staff speaks English and the menu is in English.
You need to ask what’s vegan because the menu don’t say. Be ready when they show you because it’s goes fast and the menu are on many pages.
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Nice looking restaurant
Cons: You have to ask about vegan choices

Delicious - Edit
8500¥ for three people, with the quality of food and ambiance of a place many times the price. Reservation worked in English, English menu, kind staff, private room, fresh and delicious tofu in many ways, accessible by train. As a vegetarian who doesn’t really focus on the small stuff (dashi etc), there were a ton of options. Definitely worth it for a nice but not overpriced meal, especially for going with both veg and non-veg people.

Feels luxurious - Edit
Lots of different tofu dishes. Very nice interiors. They make tofu at your table. I don’t give five stars to places that serve meat but if they didn’t, this place would rank five stars from me.

Great place but ask for vegan - Edit
Beautiful venue. Love the atmosphere.
Read moreFriendly and patient staff kindly put up with our English. When we asked for vegan, they guided us through the available options and even changed some dishes to make them vegan (very unusual in Japan!).
Not a load of options available in the end but enough to have a very nice meal for 2.
Pros: Beautiful atmosphere , Food is high quality and can be vegan, Staff are helpful and patient
Cons: Not a lot of vegan options in the end

Cozy restaurant, veg options available but be cautious! - Edit
Really nice atmosphere and setting. It is possible to get some dishes (mainly appetizers) vegetarian/vegan although they are usually prepared with soy sauce containing tuna, but do NOT trust the "vege" marks in the menu. Some of then can be prepared with a vegetarian soy instead. Double check that what they bring you is actually the veg variant, they did forget while we were there. Our waiters did seem to grasp the concept of vegetarian food but it probably help that we spoke Japanese! Did not try with English.
Read moreThey will charge you for some edamame as seating charge, this is common in Japan!
The dishes were innovative and quite tasty, however mostly innovative. You should remember and expect that it is Japanese tofu! We had a nice time even if it wasn't the best restaurant experience.
Pros: Cozy and very Japanese
Cons: The waiter brought us non veg soy, but changed it

Not very vegetarian friendly!!! - Edit
There was fish sauce in dishes marked as vegetarian and the server did not seem to understand yeh concept of vegetarianism very well. Also vegetarian and non vegetarian dishes such as tempura are cooked in the pan at the same time so there is cross contamination. Lastly they provide edamame beans at the start without asking and then charged us for them!!!

Watch out for fish sauce! - Edit
Most items marked vegetarian in the menu contains fish sauce. Nevertheless, there are some vegan options and worth visiting. Staff speaks English and can help you select the vegan options.
Read moreThis is a quite large restaurant but reservations are recommended as it is very popular. We got the feeling that it was an great place perhaps five years ago and did not try to improve since then.
Pros: Tofo making at your table, good tempura
Cons: False labeling, smoking allowed inside

Great option for vegetarian middle budget - Edit
If you are not very hungry, two - three appetizers and three pieces of tempura will be enough (2800 yen for two people in total). If you are not vegan, the sesame tofu in Japanese omelet is wonderful. I would pass on the Tempura and would order another appetizer instead. And it’s not the same tofu we usually eat in the west...
Read morePros: A wide selection for vegans and vegetarians , You can ask the meal without dashi
