Great gluten-free ramen and vegan and gluten-free gyoza. They saved my dinner, and it was a great rescue 😋😋😋 They don't guarantee contamination since they don't have separate kitchens, but they proved to be attentive and prepared. I highly recommend it 😊

this was one of my favorite places to eat while in japan. a quiet bar/restaurant in kyoto that has gluten free and vegetarian friendly options. the rice bread was incredible. the veggie curry and white miso strew was so delicious i still think about it to this day. wish i had spent more time in kyoto so i could have eaten here a second time.

The açaí bowl was very good; however, we found the service disinterested and the atmosphere lacking. If you’re in the area and need a gluten-free bite, it’s worth a stop, but I wouldn’t recommend going out of your way to visit this location.

Soba (soba) & udon (udon) shop information Juwari Soba Specialty Store 10 Soba Kyoto Miyukicho Branch (341-7 Daimonji-cho, Miyukicho-dori Oikeshita-ru, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto City) I visited with my wife for lunch on Wednesday, April 30, 2025🥢 This is a soba restaurant based on the concept of 100% soba noodles that can be eaten for just one coin.We want you to enjoy delicious 100% soba noodles made with domestic buckwheat flour.The tempura is also made with gluten-free buckwheat flour instead of wheat flour. Today I ordered the new style cold mixed soba Genovese (990 yen), maitake tempura, and red ginger onion kakiage 😀 My wife ordered zaru soba (500 yen), maitake mushroom tempura, and chikuwa tempura 😉 However, we like 100% soba and have eaten 100% soba from various places, but the flavor and texture of 100% soba did not feel like 100% soba. Also, the tempura and kakiage were not good enough🥴 The new style cold mixed soba Genovese was delicious, but that's about it😡 There was sobayu too••••••••••••••🤤 But at this price, it can't be helped. Thank you for the meal🙏

Very authentic experience. Only one man running the whole restaurant, from catching the fish in the fish tank to cleaning tables, taking orders/payments and cooking. He used a translator device with every customer to explain how to eat the noodles. The soba noodles were 100% buckwheat, so gluten-free, as was the broth. He had an excellent understanding of gluten-free. The food was exceptional would recommend making a reservation, lots of people were turned away as it was full. Only 4 tables thar seat 2 people in the small restaurant.

As a gluten free diner I have been craving simple eggs on toast, and this place offered gluten free avocado on toast with poached eggs, so I ordered some and an orange juice. It’s was super basic and small. There was no seasoning or special flavours to the avocado, which for the $40 AUD I paid (shocking I know but I was craving badly) It was neatly presented, but would have expected some kind of elevated dish. I had to salt and pepper it myself just to get some flavour. The bread a quarter of the size of regular bread. The service was lovely.
