About

Upstairs, this long-running Kyoto vegan restaurant pairs Japanese set meals such as soy-cutlet bowls with Thai noodles and handmade sides using vegetables from nearby farmers. The colorful, art-filled room doubles as a music venue; meals are made to order, so lunch can take a while, and recent visitors have reported occasional closures or food running out.
