OK-ish

está OK

We sat at the bar along one of the walls, and ordered chicken and vegetable gyozas (5), small tuna maki-sushi (6), cold noodles with some tempura, and tap water. The menu is somewhat limited. The food we ate was acceptable, but we got the impression that in warmer seasons, when one does not enjoy hot ramen so much, these places don't have much good to offer...

Inexpensive and convincing

está OK

(We went in Oct 2017)

Not bad. Similar to what one can get at a Japanese ramen bar, plus some "izakaya" dishes.

We ordered takoyaki, gyoza and ramen with truffle.

The takoyaki weren't great. The dough was more similar to Spanish "croquetas". Takoyaki is better in Hattori Hanzo ( 11870.com/pro/hattori-hanzo/tripu ).

The gyozas were good. A bit burnt... but then, that's how you often get them in Japan, anyway.

The ramen (the flagship dish) were good. Probably the best we've tasted in Madrid (which is not a huge compliment, anyway). The slice of pork is too thick, and the broth isn't as tasty as the real thing you get in Japan. But still good. The truffle touch, we did not get. It's a weird flavour in ramen. We would have ordered a "standard" ramen, but could not find any on the menu...

Total: 6 gyozas, 6 takoyaki, 2 small truffle ramen (100 g), one bottle of water, one can of shochu (alcoholic refreshment made with some fruit a bit of vodka). €26. Good value for the (low) price.

Raw vegan can be delicious

The place has been open for just two years now, and it shows (in a positive sense): the venue is spacious, quiet and clean -- including the toilets. Simplicity reigns everywhere, from the furniture to the decoration to the design of the menu.

Staff were very nice and attentive. The food was presented meticulously. It can take a while to be prepared/served, though -- don't go if you're in a hurry.

There are a few appetisers, and a few main courses. Many of them, quite surprising and original, judging by their descriptions in the menu. Everything we ate was quite tasty. Surprising for us to have cold skewers and cold "lasagna". Not all dishes are raw vegan (half of them are just "regular vegan"). On the negative side, the menu is quite short (I guess when you are so limited, it's difficult to develop a whole varied menu...).

We were full after two half appetisers and two main dishes, and a couple drinks (see photo); so, no room for desserts :( Pity, because they sounded like fun, too.

Positively surprising, in whole.

Pleasant and correct

está OK

We had drinks only; but examining the place in detail and the behaviour of staff from our vantage point at the bar, and looking at the menu and the appearance of the dishes, we decided we have to come back for lunch or for dinner in another occasion. It is a nice place, and they have some interesting offerings ("ortiguillas"; cheese and chocolate cakes looked yummy).

An OK vegan

está OK

The room is not very spacious; it got a bit too noisy around the time all patrons were seated.

The menu is quite limited.

The appetisers were three rather tasteless sauces (guacamole, aubergine, etc); although my friends seemed to like them better.

Portions are mid-size, perhaps too small.

The best: oven-baked potatoes. Simple but tasty, and served in a generous portion.
