Gorgeous food, great atmosphere - Edit
A small restaurant, so be prepared to wait a little while for a table- but it’s well worth it. The food is cooked in front of you by very friendly chefs and tastes delicious. Never tried Okonomiyaki before but will definitely be seeking it out again. Was slightly worried there might be meat cooked on the same area as the vegan options but everything is prepped especially for each dish. A great evening all in all.

Best Okonomiyaki ever! - Edit
What a great experience! We went for dinner and had the 3 course of the VEGAN menu! We sat in front of the chef as he was preparing the food. My former omnivorous boyfriend with ample okonomiyaka experience loved it, and said it didn’t miss any egg or squid (traditionally in okonomiyaki). Try the noodles-rice dish or the Japanese dumplings of the vegan menu (ask for this separate menu). So worth the trip! It is also in a nice neighborhood, full of game halls and cool pop-up stores, as well as some traditional shrines and bars.
Read morePros: Vegan menu with traditional Japanese , Charming chef cooks in front of you , Quite quick if you want it to be (less than 1h)
Cons: Rather expensive but so worth it

How do you say 'mega delicious' in Japanese? - Edit
Tiny restaurant with a warm and friendly ambiance. The food is delicious...Not enough superlatives to describe it. The chef will adapt the dishes to suit vegans and vegetarians. Try the okonomaki!

WOW WOW WOW!!! - Edit
Do whatever it takes to come to this restaurant!
Read moreIt is delicious!
Thery have amazing vegan okonomiyaki and other options (I only tried okonomiyaki)
It comes with 3 types of mushrooms and I dont even like mushrooms, but ot was still amazing!!
BTW - I almost didn't go because of the reviews here saying how they cook on same iron plate with fish, but when I ordered vegan he cleaned up the plate and his cooking tools before he started cooking my vegan one
Pros: Amazing food, Cleans up the iron plate before making vegan, Very friendly staff and vegan menu
Cons: relativaly expensive , You have to buy at least 1 drink

Amazing experience and food! - Edit
Firstly the staff was friendly and they have a vegan menu!! The starters were amazing (salad with mushrooms, tofu, rice dumplings

We all enjoyed the food and the environment we recommend and definitely will be back!!
Maybe try to reserve a place
Pros: Vegan menu!, Friendly chef and staff, You can watch the food being made
Cons: Small place not a lot of sitting area, Same grill for meat and fish , Accepts cash only

Ichiban Vegan Okonomiyaki! - Edit
Very fun experience! There was a separate vegan menu with 2 mains and lots of sides to choose from. Only difference between regular and vegan okonomiyaki was the egg, which we didn’t miss. Delicious either way! We didn’t have a reservation so we were seated at the side table (not around the grill), but after we had our appetizer and some other people left, the server offered to move us.
Read moreThe chef used a different area of the grill for our vegan dishes and different utensils. He did wipe down the grill between meat and vegan cooking. Much better to have a view of your dinner being cooked! It is more on the expensive side, but worth it for us.
Pros: Delicious Food, Fun atmosphere
Cons: More on the expensive side

Incredible! - Edit
Would give 5 stars if I could. Amazing food and an amazing experience too - they cook right in front of you and it’s mesmerizing to watch. Friendly staff and they know the differences between vegetarian and vegan. They do cook everything on the same griddle though, so beware if you’re cognizant of cross contamination. (Although if we’re being honest with ourselves, this cross contamination probably happens all the time, it just happens on a kitchen right in front of you this time...)
Read morePros: Great experience, Traditional setting, English menu with labeled vegetarian options
Cons: Expensive

5 stars in my oponion - Edit
The cook is some crazy Kami and is cooking in front of you. Of course you gotta live with the fact that he's preparing meat meals and stuff with eggs as well (unfortunately that's still the world we're living in) but I kept an eye on him after ordering my vegan noodle meal and he made sure the place where he prepared it was clean before and he used separate cooking tools to do it so I'm fine. Also both, him and the waitress spoke english well. I had to wait a bit for my food but the taste just made me forget about the waiting time. Probably the most delicious asian noodles I've ever had.
Read morePros: really delicious noodle meal, waitress speaks english well, usage of separate cooking tools for vegan meals
Cons: serves non-vegan and meaty meals as well, might take a little before you get your food

Great to try okonomiyaki! - Edit
I was so happy there was a place to try this famous dish! The staff were very kind and friendly, and knowledgable of vegan food!
Read moreReally good vegan version of okonomiyaki, super tasty.
They also had another option which I didn’t get chance to try, but I’m sure it’s also good!

Tasty but cooked very near meat with same utensils - Edit
This was a fun experience trying vegan okonomiyaki but bear in mind that your food will be cooked on a hot plate in front of you right next to all the meat/egg options and with the same utensils. If you're okay with this (I was very hungry and lots of places had already shut, so I decided I was okay with it...) then you'll have a tasty fun time

Delicious Japanese food - Edit
Went there on my first day in Kyoto because it was the closest restaurant with vegan dishes. Very friendly staff that will happily help you veganise the food. You can choose between smaller dishes and main dishes. The vegetable okonomiyaki was very tasty and fresh! Although the food is more on the expensive side it was definitely worth it.

Great okonomiyaki - Edit
The vegetarian okonomiyaki I had here was the best I had during my three weeks in Japan. We came back twice during our time in Kyoto. The staff are really friendly and we enjoyed watching the food being cooked in front of us. My husband had non vegetarian food and also really enjoyed this. Highly recommended (I would give it 5 stars if I could)!

Amazing experience but a little pricey - Edit
Staff are very nice and and have a great understanding of veganism. It was right by our hotel and we arrived at like 9:30 pm and they still cooked for us. So amazing to see the food cooked right in front of you and it was delicious!

Very tasty, very good atmosphere - Edit
Hidden in a small street you’ll find this excellent little restaurant. The cook is enjoying his work right in front of you. Good vegan options, if not so many options. But you just don’t mind, given the whole picture. Definitely a place to go.

Fünf Sterne würde ich geben, wenn es hier möglich wäre! - Edit
Wir können dieses Restaurant voll und ganz empfehlen. Es war unser kulinarisches Highlight in unserem Urlaub in Kyoto. Obwohl wir nur 10 Tage dort waren, sind wir hier gleich zwei Mal hingegangen und sind sehr traurig, dass wir diesen Laden nicht mit nach Hause nehmen können. Es war uneingeschränkt lecker. Wir beide haben die vegane Version des Okonomiyaki getestet und mein Freund auch die normale Version mit Meeresfrüchten. Beide sind sehr lecker und total frisch auf dem Grill vor einem Zubereitet. Die Küche ist sauber, die Bedienung sehr freundlich. Wir würden immer wieder hier vorbeikommen! Leider zu wenig besucht für diese Qualität, vermutlich, weil es in einer Seitenstraße liegt und man es eher übersieht, wenn man nicht gezielt danach sucht.
Read moreWe enjoyed the food so much. It was very, very tasty! We spent 10 days in Kyoto and visited this Restaurant two times 'cause we liked it that much. We tasted the vegan option and my friend also the "normal" okonomyakies. We can fully recommend to visit this small restaurant.
Pros: Sehr leckere vegane Option und nette Bedienung!
