Decent vegan options - Edit
We had the sweet and sour veggies with “soy meat” and the Szechuan tofu, both were decent. The curtained tables is a bit odd but also kind of fun. We used the QR code to order and everything came quickly and was steaming hot.

Affordable Delicious Veg Menu - Edit
A full page of dedicated vegan menu available. Tried the mapo tofu that they can accommodate non-allium request; good taste and mildly spicy. Restaurant is near Nara Station and walkway is sheltered all the way.

:( - Edit
The soup tested like a water. Almost no vegetables/ vermicelli… it just was like plain soup.
Read moreThe second course came without rice what I understand since it’s a common thing. But the taste was… not edible for me. Very salty and sour. Of course I ate it because I’m just a student who tried to eat anything vegan but I felt so sorry that I must pay for it..

Very solid vegan options - Edit
There is an entire vegan menu including their definition of vegan (no animals, byproducts, or insect byproducts) with about 8 options to choose from.
Read moreVery reasonable price for the serving size, and very tasty.
Each table is surrounded by curtains to give a level of privacy when eating.

Quick and vegan easy - Edit
The separate vegan menu is great and there are many options. We took the soy meat with cashew nuts and the fried rice that were very good. Staff is nice and service is quick. Portions are small and we ended up ordering many dishes so the bulk was higher than expected.

Delicious meal, quick service - Edit
I got the sweet and sour dish and I side of rice. It was really nice. Served quick. They gave us a hot liquid assumed it was tea and it was broth 🥲. Would go again if we were staying and no queue at lunch

Sehr schöne und große Auswahl.

Alles zusammen für umgerechnet 18€. Total gerechtfertigt. Super Option! Super lecker!

A Decent Option - Edit
This place was a life saver! It is open later than many places in Nara and it doesn't close on Tuesdays. No queue and no reservation needed. The restaurant has a vegan menu with nine dishes. All of them were decent. While I wouldn't go out of my way to seek out this restaurant, it is a solid choice if you're in the area and looking for some vegan food. The stir fried vegetables, the soy 'meat' and cashew nuts and the cocktails were particularly good.
Read morePros: Stir fried vegetables , Soy 'meat' and cashew nuts, Cocktails
Cons: Szechuan tofu (not spicy enough )

Good Food - slow service, high prices - Edit
Decent Chinese meal in Nara, they have a separate menu for vegans that is very helpful however I don’t think the portions are worth the prices. However, if you’re craving a decent Chinese meal like I was, this is a great option. I ordered the Mapo Tofu - Level 2 spice (not for the faint of heart, there is a literal danger warning on the menu for anyone ordering above level 1 spice) and the friend rice both were delicious.

Nice option - Edit
The cashew soy meat was soooo good! Really enjoyed the Yuba and vegetables as well. Portions are on the smaller side and the service seemed a little rushed at first. But really nice flavors.

Good option - Edit
We came here after another vegan restaurant we wanted to go to was closed. They have a vegan menu with 6 options. We got the fried rice, soy meat with cashew and noodles with vegetable. The soy meat with Cashews was so so good, I was really impressed and it was really yummy with the fried rice. The noodles weren't to my taste, they had a strong ginger flavour and not much else. The portions were on the smaller size. We probably needed another dish to share between two to fill up. I would definitely go back for the soy meat with Cashews.

Separate vegan menu - Edit
There is a separate vegan menu - with English option - so it’s really easy to order here. We had the sweet and sour and cashew stir fries. Both came with soy ‘meat’. I would have personally liked more vegetables and fewer mushrooms, but that’s just my taste. Staff spoke English and were friendly and efficient. #Veganuary

Great food! - Edit
Amazing Chinese restaurant close to the big destinations in Nara. I was honestly floored when I saw that they had 9 separate vegan options. The food tasted amazing, and was served pretty quickly. The staff were very friendly and quick with their service!
Read moreThe food is a bit pricier than other options, and the options don't come with rice, so make sure to ask for rice if you want some with your meal. Not too bad though, my meal cost about ¥1600.
Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Nara!
Pros: Delicious food
Cons: On the pricier side

Nice but small portions - Edit
They'll bring you the vegan menu on request. Unfortunately they didn't have the set menu anymore, so I went for veggie mushroom soup and soymeat with veggies and cashews instead. The portions are quite small and you don't get rice with them (probably could order some extra rixe though), therefore the prices are quite high in my opinion.
Read moreBoth tasted good - not incredible, but still good.
Pros: Whole vegan menu
Cons: Small portions, Quite expensive , Waiters speak very poor english
