Pancakes are heavenly - Edit
Made a reservation, don't feel like it was needed as we were the only reservation of the evening. Food was great, especially the pancakes. The journey course is a LOT of food, beware.

A rather bland journey - Edit
I had the mushroom rice meal and fried soy Chicken. They tasted as bad as they looked. The quiche was decent and the dessert was amazing. The place itself is a bit of a dump but it's a cozy dump. My partner's pasta and journey course was amazing.

Full course! - Edit
I had a full course consisting of delicious soup and supernice salad, then yummy brocolli tagliatelle, a piece of quiche and a gorgeous dessert selection! Yumm!
Read moreOnly critique - my partner‘s rice dish and chicken nuggets were surprisingly bland.
Still - totally recommended for what I had (and shared with my partner to save him, haha)! ❤️

Delicious lunch w/some luck w/out a reservation and then dinner a few days later! - Edit
So we decided to check this place out and did not realize we would need a reservation. We were first told there were no openings, but luckily, there must've been a no-show.
Read moreThe menu is quite interesting with a few set prix fixe meals, but we decided on some of the a la carte items, also offered. We chose the Hayashi Curry and the Taco Rice with an added side of Karaage.
I thoroughly enjoyed the curry and the taco rice was also enjoyed. The karaage wasn't quite what we expected as it seemed a bit spongy. Probably wouldn't order it again, but the mains were delicious.
We were so impressed by the food here, that we made a dinner reservation before we left.
A few days later for dinner, we both ordered the Japanese Style Hamburger Steak with Demi-Glace Sauce. The dinner menu is the same as the lunch menu, but the hamburger steak appeared to be a special. The steak itself had more of a firm meat-loaf texture, but the sauce was delicious, especially with the mushrooms.
I would recommend trying this place out, but the menu was somewhat limited, so not sure how many repeat visits could be made before duplication. Prices were average.
Pros: Friendly service, Good food
Cons: Somewhat pricey

Rude staff that ignore you - Edit
I went into this restaurant as the door was open. The staff ignored as and then when we sat down they rudely told us the restaurant was closed unless we had a booking. The restaurant was empty. We went th next day to get the vegan gluten free snow balls they had for sale as there were limited options for vegan gluten free. Again the staff ignored us. The payment counter was right at the kitchen so they definitely saw us. Two different staff ignored us and after some time finally decided to serve us. The snowballs were okay.

Very convenient location right next the exit C5 of Shinjuku-shanchome station. Ordered the lunch salad and strawberry pancakes. Lunch salad is a very good portion but the taste is just ok. Pancakes were great.

Una garanzia - Edit
Diverse in giro per il Giappone, tutti gentilissimi, ma i locali sono tutti piccoli e quindi è difficile trovare posto.

Lovely! - Edit
After touring the Shinjuku Gyoen National Gardens we found this sweet spot. We waited about 10 minutes for a table. It seems to be a popular spot for locals. It was a real joy to find two plant based restaurants on the same street. Our dishes were delicious. I had the crème brûlée for dessert. Sublime! There was English on the menu along with photos.

A cozy breakfast and lunch spot! We came solely for the pancakes but they were already sold out at 11:30am! 😭 But the curry and karaage were delicious and helped soothe my sadness.

Perfect lunch spot! - Edit
If you’re looking for an incredible lunch spot - this is the place. Amazing salads n dressings, and more substantial meals too. They have mega desserts as well. Please note that there isn’t any Japanese meals here however (hence the 4 rather than 5 stars).

Amazing Pancakes - Edit
We had a few things on the menu and by far the pancakes were the star. I didn’t love the savory dishes as I felt like they could use a bit more flavor but the sweets more than made up for it. Their drinks were also good 😊

My favourite vegan spot - Edit
When I was a uni student, I used to go there almost every week. I just love the aesthetics and atmosphere of the store. The staff members are sweet and helpful too. I asked them a few times for surprise birthday plate and they did such a cute plate with mini cakes. They adjust some menu for gluten free too. Everything is tasty, but I have to put an extra emphasis on their signature pudding. Anytime I want to bring some gift to a table on the way to friends' or family's, I buy and take out some of the puddings. The creaminess is uniquely perfect. If anyone asks me for vegan recommendation in my hometown, this restaurant has to be the one.
Read morePros: Delicious, delicate dishes, Staff members are so kind and helpful, Location is good
Cons: A bit pricy, Guys might not be satisfied with the portion size, sometimes it is full (small venue)

We love Ain Soph - Edit
Such a reliable chain of restaurants. This visit we had the taco rice, a burrito, a crème brûlée and the strawberry pancakes. We left stuffed full and very happy.

Heavenly desserts - Edit
I opted for two desserts, because they looked so good. And they were. The Dessert Plate had a scoop of ice cream, a waffle, whipped cream underneath fruit in a glass, and gluten free chocolate cake. These were full of flavour and mouthwatering. Then came the special strawberry pancakes. I don't have words to describe how delicious this was.
Read moreLong story short, if you are in Tokyo and looking for something special, I think you need to try this place.
They have seating upstairs too. Friendly, English speaking staff, and a relaxed atmosphere.
Pros: Everything!

Friendly and hip - Edit
Went there for lunch, the heavenly pancake set was very good.
Read moreThe soup that day was corn and onion, not their tomato speciality like the menu advertised. We were disappointed when it was served, but the first sip changed our mind!
The salad parfait was intriguing: you eat the top part first while dipping the cooked root veggies in fresh japanese miso, really yummy. Then you empty the remaining content in a plate and add the dressing.
The pancake plate was brought while we were still working on the salad, which is fine as we’ve noticed that we eat a lot slower than locals. The pancakes were very tasty. The soy ice cream had all but melted, made for a good dipping sauce!
The set includes a drink, we picked herbal tea. They don’t let you choose one, they bring you a cup already prepared. It smelled like linden-mint, I think ^_^
As the lunch hour went by, the place became very loud with people talking.
Pros: all-vegan menu, fresh ingredients
Cons: loud place

Perfect Location for a Shinjuku Outing - Edit
After really adoring the Ikebukuro location, I decided to try the Shinjuku location. It's only a few minutes walking from Marui & Marui Annex and is right next to the Shinjuku-sanchome station entrance, which is quite ideal if you are lucky enough to get caught in a wet snowstorm like I was today. The food was great, but honestly I would absolutely return here for the convenient location alone.

Tasty food - Edit
Really good food, some dishes tasted exactly like the Kyoto branch. The only thing they could improve on is the state of the downstairs seating, the ceiling definitely needs painting, looks very dirty.
