Best gluten-free pizza I have ever had. Scratch that, best pizza I have ever had Period. Everyone visiting Nara, please give these guys a visit.
Not sure if Japan has a Coeliac certification system, but it's all good. They got a while separate stone oven just for the gluten-free pizzas.
No, I haven't been to Italy, but this restaurant was supervised by a world-class Italian chef. It shows. It really shows. Don't think Italian food ever gets better than this.

About a year ago, I started to get stomach problems when I eat wheat.
So I went looking for gluten-free restaurants, but many of them were gluten-free and also vegan, but I wanted to eat meat... I found a restaurant in Nara that could fulfill my wish!
Of course, they also had gluten-free and vegan options.
I had a hamburger on rice flour bread, and it was so nice and satisfying! (It was hard to eat, but that's probably how it is.)
The price was quite high compared to regular cafes, but they seem to use carefully selected ingredients, and it's priceless to be able to eat a hamburger like this without getting an upset stomach!
There was also a parking lot next to the restaurant.
The rice flour scones I bought as a souvenir were also delicious.
I'd like to go there if it was in my neighborhood.
I'd like to eat there again if I go to Nara.
This is some of the best gluten free food I have ever had in my 10 years of being gluten free!! Such kind service, delicious pastries, the karaage is life changing, I could go on and on. The turnip cakes are so delightful as well. The vegan delight and the oriental vegan plate are filling, hearty, and nourishing above all. Also, the handmade sodas are so tasty, such a nice addition to the meal. Please eat here!!! You will not regret it. I came here 3 times in my 4 days in Nara, and I’m sad it was only 3 times. I wish I knew the names of the people who run this place, they are so kind and make stellar food. I’m so enthusiastic about this place, what a highlight of my trip!! I will be back someday <3
Awesome experience, the owner was so lovely and amazing food. Really knowledgable about how to make it gluten free as well, i will come back when im next in Japan
As a coeliac with limited Japanese vocabulary, it was great to have the food on display clearly labelled with GF. Strong recommendation for any gluten suffers looking for a bite to eat.
So impressed with this one person show, I am gluten free and dietary restrictions were clearly labeled on the menu.
Recommend telling the waiter ‘I have a wheat allergy’ (komugi arerugi ga aru) to inform them of your wheat allergy and asking ‘Does it contain wheat?’ (komugi o haiiteiruno) to ask if something has wheat.
Even gave wheat free soy sauce! Wow!
Super delicious vegan and glutenfree typical Japanse food. The owners are very kind and prepare, present and explain the dishes with so much care. I could try things I have never eaten in my life before. They also support places for rescue cats and there are paintings and pictures of cats everywhere<3
Delicious. It's not always easy eating gluten free in Japan, but I have to. Spotted a big gluten free sign outside and was stoked to see all the gluten free choices were clearly marked. Enjoyed my onigiri and a spam/egg "burger".
They have a small bar for eating in, but seem to do mostly to-go. The person working (owner) was friendly and happily helped me when I asked a question using Google translate. I wish I was going to be able to visit again this trip!
No vegan menu available as of January 20, 2024. Was disappointed to see it had been removed so putting this here for other fellow vegans/vegetarians to be aware. Gluten free option is still available
Super good, not too sweet for once in Japan, and gluten free! I tried it and am celiac. Don't be put off by the queue on the left, I don't know why these people wait, you have to go to the middle, I had my mochis in 10 seconds!
I could finally eat sushi, because I'm celiac and I can't easily find something to eat in Japan. They have a gluten free menu, unfortunately not the soy sauce for me but I was satisfied.
Coeliac - They were able to provide information about safe allergen foods. Absolutely delicious and affordable. Highly recommend. Lots of variety and the service was lovely!
Total rip-off. I lived in Japan 20 years ago and came back with friends 12 years ago and I never ate in a restaurant where the experience was bad. I suppose that the explosion of tourism in the last years inevitably brought with it tourist rip-offs, to which not even Japan seems to be inmune. We ordered the soups which turned out to be pasta with some sauce in a bit of soup. It was edible, in the same way that it is edible the pasta I cook at home in 15min. But here it was 12 euros per person (and half the size) plus 6 euros for a lemonade, which, again, it was not bad, but the price was not at all justified. We came here because one of us is a celiac, and, while the food indeed seemed gluten-free, this is certainly a place to avoid.
Great place for anyone on a gluten-free diet due to intolerance or celiac disease.
The staff knows exactly what is going on, takes care of you and takes their time. Staff is really 100 out of 10, just extremely good. The food is delicious, not fried and fresh! Very great experience
I'm celiac and vegan and after reading the reviews on Google maps, decided to try this restaurant in Nara. They offer a vegan menu but the waiters don't have a clue of what's gluten free. After checking with the cook, they only had 3 options. A salad, soup and stir fried veggies which they had to take out the yuba and still charged full price. All three portions were minimal and overpriced for the size. Taste was good though. We left the restaurant still hungry.
