It is very spacious inside the restaurant with warmth of wood and green interiors which makes great match with the environment outside. Double height ceiling and big windows create bright and airy atmosphere. There are different types of seating available such as counter and table seating, and private rooms to suit a variety of needs including individuals, groups and families. I was seated at a table near the window with views of the entrance of Nihonzan myouhouji across the street and trees surrounding the area.

Variety of authentic vegetarian food
Havan dining offers vegetarian dishes without using meat, fish and eggs, mainly cooked in an authentic Indian style. There are a variety of beautiful vegetarian dishes that are both enjoyable to look at and eat, created by experienced Indian chefs who used to work in an asylum where they provide vegetarian food. Lunch buffet include several types of curries, soup, salad, a la carte, desserts and freshly baked nann. On top of that you can eat all the tasty food as much as you like, this wholesome food cooked with beautiful spices are healthy and plant-based food without using animal products is very gentle on your stomach, so you can enjoy the healthy buffet feeling at ease. This buffet has a time limit, but they offer “curry plate day” (1st, 3rd, and 5th Tuesday every month) that comes with vegetarian curries, deep-fried side dishes, salad, rice, and freshly baked nann for those who wants to enjoy the authentic cuisine without worrying about time.

They also offer “microbiotic day” (2nd and 4th Tuesday every month) that comes with microbiotic dish and dessert. The day I was there for the interview happened to be microbiotic day, so I enjoyed a plate with a few side dishes, rice, soup and an apple tart. It may not be big enough portion for male and teenagers who need a large portion, but it was so soothing and satisfying for me since I enjoyed quite bit of Niigata sake the night before. You can help yourself to soup and drinks as many times as you like. They make you feel very warm from inside out. Apple tart was heavenly delicious yet not too rich, which makes microbiotic quite special and contribute to create comfortable feeling after the meal.
