The place was so sleek. The sushi was made right in front of us and all looked delicious, but when we actually tasted it. It was even more delicious!

Pros: Class, Food, Staff

What an experience!!

The sushi at this fancy place is made entirely from vegetables! Before trying the carrot sushi, I expected it to taste just like a carrot, but it completely blew my mind 🤯 Highly recommended!!

My favourite by far in Osaka

I wish I went to this place much sooner cos I would have gone back over and over. Vegan sushi and nigiri. This place has a nice, classy vibe, the staff are great and English menu is available with all the food description via a QR code. My favourites are the tofu oden (available only in winter), the salmon roe style nigiri, and the crab paste style nigiri. But everything I had really was so delicious. Of course, I could only eat so much so I did have the second of each pair I ordered left for me to take home and enjoy later.

Thanks to the Google pics, I was able to locate this as maps was off by a building or two.

Pros: All vegan sushi and nigiri, Great service , Great ambiance

Absolutely delectable vegan sushi

I very much enjoyed the vegan/vegetarian takes on what otherwise is usually meaty nigiri. The chef maintains that the star of the show are the toppings while maintaining the delicate dance between rice and focus. I can't tell you if what is presented tastes like what it may claim to be imitating, however what i can say is that it is bloody delicious, and it makes you feel truly special in that it is not just a cheap imitation, but heart and thought went into concocting these recipes.

Definitely recommend and worth visiting.

Pros: Amazing food, The very chill and relaxed vibe, Location is actually easy to find

Cons: Limited seating, get in quick., One or two of the nigiri aint my jam, not a con

Amazing vegan sushi!

A small restaurant tucked away in a basement, friendly staff and amazing sushi.

Very glad to have the opportunity to try sushi whilst in Japan.

We had the sushi assortment and each piece was creative and delicious.

We also tried the tofu which was so silky and a great dish.

Make sure you stop by if you're in Osaka!

Great place

Comfy vegan sushi restaurant with nice people working there. There was gluten-free soy sauce and the sushi set I ordered was fully gluten-free. It was very tasty and definitely best sushi I ever had.

Pros: Taste, Lot of options, Gluten-free

Great vegan sushi!

Great options and choices. Loved the vegan twist on traditional sushi. My partner isn’t vegan and even he loved it (rated overall 7.5/10).

My favourite was the avocado roll (can’t remember what they were called) and the soy meat sticks.

Definitely recommend!

Pros: Chilled atmosphere , Great food , Good options

Cons: Very quiet

Delicious vegan & gluten free sushi

I had a great time at this cozy Japanese sushi restaurant. Everything on the menu is gluten-free and vegan. The atmosphere is really nice, and all the seating is at the bar, which gives it a relaxed and personal feel. The sushi was really tasty, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this place!

A must try!

What an experience! A small, authentic sushi restaurant just a short walk from Shinsaibashi station.
It's quite pricey (but well worth it) with single dishes ranging from about ¥450 to ¥880. Mixed plates are available if you want to try a wide selection or for sharing.

A relaxed atmosphere with about 12 seats around the kitchen area, you can watch the chef plate up everything to the sounds of relaxed old school jazz.

Ordering is by qr code, and you're asked to order only one or two items at a time. The staff (all 2 of them) were lovely and clearly love what they do.

This is definitely a restaurant I'd happily go back to.

Pros: Relaxed vibe, Delicious food

Simply amazing! | 紛れもなくお寿司!

Visited before 14:00, no reservation needed. The lunch menu came with nigiri, gunkan and maki-sushi of the day. All were aesthetically pleasing! As a Japanese, it surprised me how they gave that authentic delicate taste. They creatively recreated seafood-like flavors for some, while others were completely new (super delicious ofc). Definitely recommended 🙌

お昼頃伺い予約なしで入れました。お店の雰囲気がとてもよく、「回らないおすし屋さんだ」と少し緊張したくらいです。日替わりの精進寿司はどれも抜群に美味しくて、繊細な味を楽しめました。炙ったしいたけ、しそと梅が効いた巻き寿司、きのこ類の蟹味噌風がのった軍艦巻きなどなど。海鮮ネタはもちろん一つもないですが、紛れもなく美味しいお寿司でした。デザートにいただいた抹茶羊羹も美味!オススメです👍

Pros: Superb vegan sushi, Great atmosphere , Reasonable price

Perfect Sushi

It is at basement. No big logo at outdoor. I ask the shop next door before I located it.
The sushi is very good. I like the soup. Many choices and all are tasty. If you’re around here, pls try this.

Absolutely delicious

This sushi is divine. So tasty. Every bite I was making “mmmmmmm” noises. The sushi roll has something in it that I couldn’t figure out what it was that was so good.
I went for dinner and it would be a great lunch spot.

Pros: Tastes so good, Super friendly staff, Nice cosy feel to it

Vegan sushi!

Lunch set includes a variety of different flavours. Could’ve ate more, but there was no option for a la carte ordering, at least at lunch time.

One of a kind

Quite simply the best vegan sushi I’ve ever had, better than most omakase. Transformative usage of ingredients and impeccable presentation are too good to miss, this is definitely worth a visit. The 10 piece special was incredible and the matcha yokan was a delight. The staff and ambience were fantastic— would highly recommend a visit if you’re in Osaka.

Must-eat!

The sushi was delicious and the place is very charming. Definitely a must when in Osaka.
It was a bit hard to find as the address here and on Google Maps was not 100% right. It’s right next to Mondialkaffee328 and LIPPS hair.

10/10!

This was such a delightful surprise! I was so happy and fulfilled.
I never thought I’d get to experience an authentic Japanese sushi dining experience because I’m vegan. Then this gem of a place opened up!

I hope they get a Michelin star.

Pros: Atmosphere , Venue, plating, seating , Everything else
