Amazing Gyozas

We have taken the gyoza mix, one steamed, one fried, to share.
They are not accompanied by rice or soy sauce, which is fine because the quantity is sufficient (11 gyozas) and the tastes so different, fine and studied that a sauce would spoil them.
Best gyozas ever :)

Favorite restaurant in Tokyo

The gyoza are incredibly delicious!!! They differ from traditional gyoza because they are larger and have several different fillings available. The different flavors are spectacular and made in house! This is the one restaurant I tell everyone not to miss. It’s located in a residential area, so be aware of that so you don’t think you’re lost. The black gyoza are my favorite!!!!!

We loved it!

There are lots of gyoza to choose from and they were all packed with flavour. I especially enjoyed the garlic, the chive, the ginger, and the eggplant… oh whose kidding I liked them all.

Pros: Yum, Friendly staff

Incredible selection

Having tried every flavour of gyoza (steamed) on the menu I can happily say this was the best gyoza I've ever had. With the amount of flavours you might not expect much variation but every flavour was unique and impactful - I definitely recommend trying the full course to find your favourite!
The owner was also very friendly and the restaurant is located in a nice little residential spot not too far from Ueno.

Pros: Flavours, Service, Ambiance

Absolutely fantastic

The absolute best meal we had in Tokyo, hands down. Every flavour was interesting, even the ones I typically don’t enjoy were outstanding.

Edit: it was so good I was craving it three weeks later so we went back again, it was almost better the second time around. Just so so SO good. Thank you!

Best gyozas!! 🥟

Went back in May and just wow, these were the best gyozas I’ve ever tasted so far! Wide variety of flavours, colourful, and overall very satisfying. And the matcha drinks? My sister and I ordered two sets of them cause they were that good haha they also had a variety of matcha mixes so you can choose which one suits your palate😄Please go there if you ever visit Tokyo, Japan!

Heavenly!

We arrived late in the evening and had a plate of steamed and a plate of fried gyoza that were the best I’ve had!
Each gyoza is focused on a single ingredient (ginger, mushroom, eggplant, etc) and the flavours are so distinct and clear.
The staff are really friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed and energised.
I’d highly recommend.

A gem

I was excited to visit a gyoza house while in Tokyo, and even more excited to see they have a vegan one. I ordered each flavor they had which was 11. Going into this I thought they would pretty much all taste the same. Not true. You can taste the clear distinction between each piece. I ordered mine pan fried and they were cooked to perfection. I highly recommend visiting this place.

Disappointed

I sincerely wanted to like this place, and the service was definitely friendly, but it utimately comes off like a gimmick with rainbow-colored gyoza that offer style without substance.

Cons: oily

Amazing experience

Super cool experience and well worth the money. One of the more unique ways to eat vegan in Tokyo and if you love gyoza you will love trying all the different flavors they have completely vegan.

Pros: Presentation , Taste , Staff

Best gyozas ever

Title. The gyozas are delicious, beautiful, and original, with many diverse flavors. Apart from that, the drinks are also phenomenal, I loved the chocolate matcha latte! The staff is also very nice and welcoming.
