Upon arrival, I showed my email to an employee who quickly arranged a table for me. The chef prepared a veganized version of their rice bowl, substituting fish stock for a soy-based sauce. The food was delicious, with fresh yuba and silk tofu served with a clear soup made from konbu stock. I also enjoyed pickles and a variety of tofu dishes, including a soy milk tree cake for dessert. Despite the language barrier, the staff was friendly and helpful, providing an English menu to assist me. I recommend contacting the restaurant in advance to request a vegetarian-friendly option, as many dishes traditionally contain fish dashi and Bonito flakes. Reservations are recommended, especially during peak hours. Additionally, the restaurant offers souvenirs including traditional cinnamon cookies, soy milk wagashi, and beautiful calendars featuring their mascot rabbit. I had a great experience dining here and also recommend trying their soy milk donuts at the Nishiki market. Overall, a must-visit for vegans and tofu lovers alike!

I had a set lunch meal for $19. It included 4 plates with a combination of small and large portions. There were broth pieces with fish sauce to cleanse the palate. It was very filling due to the high soy content. The flavors were straightforward. While I probably wouldn't return, I'm happy I gave it a try.

My group stumbled upon this café by accident and decided to give it a try. We were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful atmosphere and the tasty tofu dishes and desserts. It's worth noting that some dishes may contain egg, and there is one dish with ham, but overall the menu seems to be mostly vegetarian. We also appreciated that they sell fish stocks in their store to ensure fish-free options. Just a heads up, the location on the map is incorrect - the café is actually closer to Kita no Tenmangu Shrine. If you follow the map, you'll end up at Flafelgarten instead.

I saw this restaurant on happy cow before I went to japan in March 2013, and it was very close to kitano tenmangu shrine that I visited to see the ume blossom. I have before my visit email and the manager was wonderful, he made a reservation for me and would talk to his personal about a special vegan tofu meal for me. it was very easy to find and many signage. it is on every Japanese tourist to do list, so is very busy with Japanese visitors on their holiday to kyoto. I spoke to a worker and showed her my email and after some confusion I got a table. she talked to the cook who knew about my visit and they prepared a veganized version of the dish. this would normally be fish stock in, along with the dipping sauce (which they are substituted for soy sauce). eating came fast and was amazing. the rice bowl had fresh yuba and silk tofu up, with a bowl of clear suppe (I checked what was passed and was pleased that they had taken the time to make it conbu only). I also had pickles and a plate of different types of tofu. everything was delicious and I even had a piece of tree cake (soy milk, of course I would doubt that this would have been vegan, but definitiw vegetarian. the place was very easy and the staff was friendly and very helpful. despite the language barrier they had an English menu. I think it helped me to have a list of what I couldn't eat in Japanese what helped the cook to understand. also here there are souvenirs, and I bought some traditional cinnamon cookies (yatsuhashi,) that were made with soy milk and sugar and soy milk-Wagashi, räkugan. there were also beautiful calendars with their mascot rabbit. I highly recommend to eat here, but contact them before the time to arrange a veggie friendly option, as all fish dashi will have in and bonito up. also there were very long waiting queues when I went (at lunch on weekday) so it is worth making a reservation and going early. also, as expected, the meals are very hard tofu. I love tofu, but maybe your omni friend can't: these are the same people who own soy milk donut stack in the Nishiki market, which I also highly recommend the yummiest donuts that I have ever had!
