Gyoza-No Umechan

Vegetarian and vegan ramen and gyozaYou can choose to ditch the egg to make your ramen vegan. The vegetarian/vegan ramen is just so-so while I don't understand the taste of the vegan gyōza. Tbh, I can make a better miso ramen at home while their gyōza tasted like my failed gyōza using the Quorn meat grounds. The gyōza isn't that bad but it's not good either. If there's any consolation, they're legit vegan because they clearly stated no poultry, no fish, no egg and dairy. It's just a few minute walk from the Tobu-Nikko station and bus stop going to the tourist spots. The owner was super nice and they really care if you're vegan because they'll clarify your orders for you. He speaks a little English but he can communicate enough. YOU SHOULD USE THEIR TOILET.

Inazuma miso ramen tastes spicy and sour (very similar to "Tom yum koong", in my opinion). Miso ramen is also good. I recommend Kyoza and Tofu as appetizers. Overall dishes are "umami" flavor ramen.

If you are looking for a cheap meal and tastes like 5 star restaurant, then look no further than Goyza no Umechan. I got the Inazuma Miso Ramen and Green Ginger Dumplings, and that flavour of the spicy miso ramen complimented the grilled pork and salty simmered bamboo really well. The Goyza was very tasty and fresh served with vinegar, soy sauce and spicy sesame oil. Amazing customer service and English menu is available. If you are vegetarian then you are in luck. I Highly recommend this place.
