Amazing

This place saved me on many occasion in Nara as a lot of other places were closed often or out of the way.
I tried the tonkotsu, shoyu, and shoyu tonkotsu and all three were incredible.
A protein source, a variety of veggies and wholewheat noodles makes this a rare balanced meal for vegans in Japan, and a great portion too.

The staff are also incredibly friendly and they have free WiFi.

Not to be missed in Nara.

Pros: Amazing food , Big portion , Super friendly staff

Get the tonkatsu ramen.

This place is awesome. Great atmosphere. Great staff and WONDERFUL RAMEN. For the vegan this is your chance for tonkatsu ramen. And for non vegans my hubby loved his his non vegan tonkatsu. Good drinks too

Great miso Ramen

The place was lovely and the food was very tasty. I will recommend if you find yourself in Nara.
Easy to find, plug the name on google maps and you’re good to go.

Pros: Staff, Chef, Location

Go to this place in Nara

It's solidly good Ramen. Really delicious. Happy I went. A bit pricey but worth it but the price makes it three and not four stars for what you get. Cost was 1800 yen for the vegan option -- not bad but not four stars for that price point. Ingredients were all good and tasty. Service was nice. Food presented elegantly.

Vegan ramen for 2000¥

4 vegan ramen options. I took the miso ramen which was really delicious. The staff were very friendly and spoke english decently. The restaurant had a calm athmosohere.

Expensive, ramen overall good

A bit pricy for what it is. My noodles were too soft and my broth could’ve been hotter… But overall a nice place and taste was good.

Good

Nice place. Has four different kinds of vegan ramen and a couple nonvegan. I had the miso one which was quite good.
Staff is very friendly, vegan choices are clearly labelled.
