Amazing - Edit
We went two nights in a row because it was so good. The staff were so friendly and no issue with a language barrier as there english was great. The food was so tasty. Would highly recommend the Gyoza, tofu and soy sweet chilli curry and the soy sweet and sour. Everything was fresh and nothing was less than delicious.

Very tasty food and very friendly staff - Edit
Cozy restaurant with a livingroom feel. Owners made me feel right at home. Multilingual staff spoke in Japanese, English and Chinese to me, probably know more languages. Very tasty food, I got a free dessert (allergy-free apple) which was very kind. Highly recommended. Reasonable prices.

Authentic Chinese Style Food - Edit
Technically Taiwanese, but I lived in China and was craving some good authentic Chinese food and this place really hit the spot. It was delicious 😋 I ordered the mushroom and broccoli dish and the jiaozi. I really enjoyed my meal and the staff was all really friendly. They asked my dietary preferences when I came in. They are familiar and accommodating to vegans. Great experience 👍😀

Savoury Asian delights - Edit
This restaurant is located in a long single ground floor unit on a quiet street. It appeared to be closed on arrival but we were let in. The staff are friendly and very helpful speaking some English. Decor is plain and practical, the kitchen appears clean and tidy.
Read moreThere was a new menu when we visited so the menu we were presented had some items unavailable. The focus is on savoury Asian dishes, pizzas were no longer on the menu so expect only Asian food.
We ordered a variety of dishes all of which were delicious and served in good time. Presentation is ordinary in line with the decor. The sour soup was the best I’ve had and the potato curry was also excellent as were spring rolls, gyoza and mock meats. Portion sizes are good, so be careful not to order too many dishes unless you are very hungry.
Highly recommend a visit if you really appreciate tasty Asian cuisine. Best to sit further away from the kitchen and it’s fumes.
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Excellent food standard, Good portions
Cons: Kitchen poorly ventilated

Great service, low cost - Edit
This little family-run restaurant was such a great surprise. The whole menu is vegetarian with many vegan options. The food was fresh and super tasty. We had the gyoza, mapo tofu and sweet and sour dishes and they were all delicious. The waitress was lovely and so polite. She also spoke perfect English, which was a bonus for translating to the older couple operating the kitchen. Our whole dinner was super easy on the wallet as well- just one more incentive to go! Highly recommend!

The best restaurant in Tokyo - Edit
When you enter the restaurant, located on a second floor, looks like you are entering the house of someone. This someone is a wonderful woman, who cooks amazing vegetarian and vegan food and also speaks really good English. It is also cheap and you also don't get small portions! You can see how she cooks everything in front of you. We ate here four times in four days!! The dumplings, the sticky rice (it has a name that I don't remember) and the mayo eggplant were incredible😄 Be aware that from September on they will move to another location, but the name will be the same.

Great prices! - Edit
So many options, all for great value! The portions are good, most of the meals are around 580¥ and you can add rice and soup for an additional 150¥. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the soup, but I had the chilli sauce with tofu and soy meat which was good, and the gyoza are amazing! The owner is so nice and helpful, they even offer a vegan/vegetarian map of Tokyo which was such a great find! Comfy and spacious seating area, good vibes all around :)
Read morePros: Lots of options, Good service, Great prices
Cons: Side soup not my favourite😄
