The menu is split between chicken-based and vegan dishes. Vegan ramen are fully plant-based and suitable for vegetarians. The vegan broth is made from plant-based ingredients. There is no dedicated vegetarian section, but the entire vegan menu is vegetarian-friendly. The kitchen shares equipment between chicken and vegan prep, so strict vegetarians should confirm no hidden animal-derived ingredients in broths or toppings.
