Incredible tasting sushi! - Edit
I had just arrived in Cuenca and was looking for a restaurant still open and on a Monday as learned some are closed. Origami was open , the past reviews sounded great so hopped into a taxi. I met the manager Eddie who was friendly and so helpful in letting me know that he could veganize all vegetarian sushi. There was a lot to choose from! I asked him for his recommendation and hands down he said King Kong veggie roll. I was really hungry and started with a miso soup with green onions . It was alright.
Read moreWhen the sushi rolls came out, not only well presented but omg so good!! Loved the combo of cucumber, seaweed, avocado, mango and sesame seeds! I was still a little hungry and ordered noodles with vegetables in teriyaki sauce. Again so tasty and huge portion.
Loved chatting with Eddie and explaining how he rescued and adopted his dog Tomas who was calm and friendly.
So glad that I popped by for delicious vegan food, huge portions at reasonable prices and easy conversation.
Note credit card machine was not working so paid in cash. Manager said would take in for repair but wasn’t sure when would be able to accept credit cards.

Great vegan sushi - Edit
We had the vegetarian combo, which is also vegan, with 30 sushi pieces and a miso soup starter. Both the soup and the sushi was delicious and reasonably priced at $22.5. Like a previous reviewer commented their wasabi paste is weak, though. Barely felt anything with more than half of the given wasabi added.

Read moreThe owner / cook understands the concept of veganism and hence prepares very good food.
The price was also great for what we got.

Very nice vegan sushi options - Edit
I had vegan sushi here - sweet potato with avocado, and seaweed with avocado. Both very nice. I think there was another vegan option too - but if you don't like avocado then you're out of luck here.

Great vegan sushi rolls! - Edit
We really enjoyed our lunch here. There was a page and a half in the menu dedicated to vegetarian and vegan sushi. We asked if there was egg in the tempura, and the server (owner?) told us no, and asked us if we were vegan. Happy that he knew what that meant, we went ahead and ordered 2 types of sushi rolls. The tempura sushi roll was soooo good, as was the moreish edamame and sake. The food is pretty pricey for Ecuador but I'm guessing it isn't easy to find these kind of ingredients in stores. There was a little wait on the food but that was fine because it was freshly made to order, and it was definitely worth the wait. Our only suggestion would be that they get hotter wasabi. We missed the nose burn experience!
