Excellent variety - Edit
This restaurant is spacious and comfortable. The staff was very friendly, and the menu is huge. We had a great experience, and the dessert maker is also one of the servers. We got to meet her and try two of her desserts. There are some gluten-free options if you let the wait staff know, they will tell you what can be made gluten-free.
Read moreThe vegan marketplace is also fantastic. We were able to buy things to make our lunch for the following day in our hotel room. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in Osaka.
Pros: Extensive menu, Market goods

Amazing all-vegan Variety - Edit
I am vegan for 8 years now, but this is maybe the best restaurant I have ever been. They have a huge variety of vegan meals of all kinds of style. Pizza, Pasta, Japanese (Karaage, Gyozas, many side dishes), also desserts and a small vegan shop.

Cozy place - Edit
Very cozy vegan restaurant that also has a small shop of vegan goods.
Read moreI've been there on a Friday night, and we were able to get a table for 2 without reservations.
We had the beyond meat burger with fries. The burger was tasty, but the fries were undercooked. I don't recommend getting fries at all.
Pros: Atmosphere , Card payment , Vegan shop
Cons: Undercooked fries 🍟 👎

Thanks! I'm getting an error saying: For the phone number Japan please enter a phone number that is available in your country. Any idea how to resolve this? Tried a few different types of numbers (US, Japan).

Not great - Edit
Unfortunately we didn't have a great experience here.
Read moreOrdered the soy meat karaage and the hamburger steak. The karaage came out first, was small but quite nice. Unfortunately we had to wait 10 minutes or so until the hamburger steak came, with no communication from staff. It wasn't worth the wait - bland and mushy, with only a few slices of vegetables on the side. The soy meat karaage was going cold, so I was almost done eating as my parter was just starting.
We left still hungry. If coming here I'd suggest ordering more food than we did, and looking through the reviews to know what to order.
The ginger ale was good though!
Pros: All vegan, Really nice atmosphere
Cons: Small meals, Food has some hits and misses

Delicious vegan dining experience - Edit
(Visited 17. April 2023)
Read moreVisited with a group of 22 people (booked in advance). Had 6 course dinner which was fantastic. Really tasty and varied. Would also recommend to get the all you can drink menu to go with the food (good value). Restaurant also sells vegan goods.
Portion sizes might be a bit small if not having a multiple course dinner (Although I have a bigger apetite).
Staff was super helpful and welcoming! The interior was cozy and lovely. Would definitely recommend visiting!

Hi! I wasn't the one booking it, but I understood there's a calendar for reservations in the website (website link in Google search). Just checked it out and you might have to use a google's translate feature as there isn't (to my knowledge) an english version.
Read moreCalling to the restaurant might also work as their english was quite good!

Fantastic! - Edit
We loved Paprika so much! The food was good, the place beautiful and the staff very friendly. 10/10 all around! The lunch menu is pretty extensive, and the set menu offers generous portions. The desserts were nothing short of incredible - we would have come back if we’d been here longer.

Vegan heaven in a non vegan city - Edit
Reservations are recommended, but at 6pm on Saturday we were seated with no issues. The food was wonderful and we did stick with the japanese foods; no pizza. The atmosphere is cute and hippy, and the staff are so kind! My non-vegan wife got the karaage and loved it! The fried gyoza were to die for!

Great lunch set and stirfry - Edit
I had an amazing lunch here at paprika, given the other reviews I was on the fence about going for lunch but I thought it was one of the best meals I have had in Japan. I had the soy meat stir fry lunch plate and it was amazing. My partner had one of the beyond burgers and loved it. The soy karaage was also great. It definitely can add up but the lunch plate was huge and I thought it was good value. There is also a little grocery store of sorts with cookies, fake meats etc.
Read moreI would love it if they had more drink options i.e. ice chai etc. But that is a very minor critic.

Delicious dinner, ok lunch - Edit
Went here twice. The first time I had a teriyaki burger for lunch. It could have used a lot more sauce, so it was a little disappointing. The dinner on the other hand, especially the Japanese stir-fried tempe, was delicious! The service is also lovely😄

Good rice dishes, but… - Edit
We went here a couple years ago and had a pizza that was terrible. Still we decided to give Paprika a second chance but this time we went for the more Asian dishes. Luckily, these were fine. Healthy, tasty and good size portions. All in all a good restaurant with a mellow vibe, but I would suggest not to order the pizza.

Great Osakan Vegan Lunch - Edit
We split two dishes on our visit: the Soy Meat Karaage Set (¥1450) and their Vegan Loco Moco (¥1540). Loved their soy meat set which included brown rice, salad, and soup. The presentation was on point and the soy meat chicken was very good, albeit a bit on the saltier side. Lots of food for a lunch plate.
Read moreThe loco moco was also a great treat. They use a homemade soy patty with gravy on a bed of greens with gravy. Both of these dishes were definitely filling and it made my heart happy to have found some great vegan food.
But we can't forget about dessert either. We went with their dessert set (¥1200) which included ice cream, brownie, and a raspberry cheesecake. The ice cream was my definite fave and went really well with the brownies.
Like other vegan restaurants, they also sell products such as soy meat and cup noodles for the vegan traveler.
Thanks Paprika for a great experience!
Pros: Desserts set was delicious, Excellent ambiance

Wet pizza. What a joke - Edit
The reviews on here are amazing. My friend and I were incredibly excited to try the margarita pizza that are on the pictures for this restaurant. The cheese was literally wet yellow syrup. Not even like nice cheese sauce. ALSO we ordered two pizzas, only got one. When we asked about the second pizza they said they had sold out. We only tried the one pizza, and it was bad. But the other food on the other people’s tables looked nice. We also tried the brownie which was okay but nothing spectacular. I don’t know why the reviews are so amazing for this place. My advice, don’t get the pizza.

Cons: Ordered two pizzas and only got one, Pizza was literally wet. Nothing like the photos., Organic fries comes with 6 chips. Literally.

I revisited here with my coworker for dinner and had some amazing dishes together. Their peperoncino was surprisingly tasty, and their vegan Tiramisu was just perfect! The tiramisu will be available until at the end of Feb 2023, so if you’re around, check it out!
Would love to visit there at lunchtime as well.

Love for veganisme is there. But no love for good tasting food. - Edit
Vegan food in Japan isn't that available and to see a place that show Japan that we al should be vegan is a great start.
Read moreBut the quality of the dishes are low. No taste or some taste. I just know that vegan food sloud be better tasting. In the land of miso and soy saus I just aspects more depth in a dish.
If you decide to eat here. I think you have more luck with the Asian inspired dishes than the European.
