Misleading menu - Edit
The menu had a small number of items marked as vegetarian, but when we enquired whether any of them were vegan, the staff first said yes but upon double-checking it turned out one of the marked options included chicken. The vegan friendly tofu and pickles were tasty but very small, not a full meal.

Cons: Unreliable labeling, Few and very small vegan options, Uncertain if waiters understand veganism

Delicious dishes and excellent service - Edit
I was able to get a seat, but otherwise reservation is recommended for an evening meal. Everyone spoke English and an English menu was provided. The ingredients were exquisite: the vegetable tempura was the best i had in a long time and for dessert, i had the tofu cheesecake.

good find - Edit
very nice place in terms of atmosphere- japanese. ask for english menu. there are many dishes marked as vegetarian but after a conversation with the staff many of them contain-dashi-the fish sauce. staff were able to identify the 'real' vegetarian meals and were generally nice and trying to be helpful. it's a good place to be in a japanese environment and have something to eat actually:)

Amazing tofu, amazing place!! - Edit
I would never have known, or found, this place if it weren't for my boyfriend who took me here on my last night in Tokyo. This place is really not to be missed. The ambiance is just right; it's got a dimly lit and 'traditional' Japanese atmosphere, very cosy - ideal place for a date or with a group of friends. Service is great and prices aren't too steep, considering Ebisu is one of the most expensive parts of Tokyo. The tofu here is made in-house and is amazing!!! My boyfriend and I ordered this 'box' type of thing (see pictures uploaded) and inside it was what I assume was some kind of soy milk...after 20 min of it being on top of hot coals, we had our own home made tofu! So delicious eaten with a bit of lime and salt and pepper. We also tried the avocado tofu cubes which were refreshing and yummy, as well as a few other tofu and rice dishes...all so delicate, fresh and tasty. I have no doubt you'll have a really pleasant dining experience here...although not vegan/vegetarian, it IS a tofu-based restaurant, so there are plenty of options for veg people and anything that isn't can be adapted - Sora no Niwa was definitely one of the nicest places I ate at during my stay in Tokyo :)
