I’m a happy vegan right now!

So glad I found this little gem! Their separate vegan menu has so many options it’s hard to choose. I had the “chicken” katsu burger, it was next level awesome. I’ve been in Japan for 4 days now and this is the first proper meal I’ve eaten. Very much recommend. Their cocktail list is great too!

Pros: Great separate vegan menu, inc desserts.

Super vegan options, western food

I went here a few times during my stay in Osaka. Ask for the vegan menu and you'll see they have a lot of options. 'Fish' 'n chips, fries and 'chicken' bites. It was all very tasty, though the portions were small. The price was not too high. I recommend this place definitely if you are in the mood for western style vegan food.

Pros: a lot of vegan options, friendly staff, good taste

Cons: small portions

Amazing Vegan Options, has Seitan!

Saying this restaurant "has vegan options" is an understatement... When I think "has vegan options" I think "has a light tofu dish with veggies" but this restaurant goes all out. They have a full vegan menu that the owner made because she wanted to challenge herself with vegan food two years ago after having a few vegan customers enter. For her dishes, she makes Vital Wheat Gluten from flour by hand because it is difficult to obtain in Japan. The amount of research she has done into vegan food is astounding. The owner is also a fluent English speaker. The restaurant also has several vegan desserts including brownies. We tried her soymilk alcoholic boba drink as well as her Seitan Steak Sandwich, vegan pizza with cashew parmesan, and Seitan chicken burger and were very impressed with them. I highly recommend this place, and someone please send her some premade gluten to make vegan cooking easier for her!

Pros: lots of vegan options, price, taste

Oh yep!

Oh, it was so nice to be in a place where staff understand your language and especially what vegan means, after days of “sorry no”. This place offers an entire 100% vegan menu, which would be super tasty anywhere. We had a to-die-for vegan fish and chips. The fish is made with tender mushrooms and it’s super crispy, it’s served with fries and a delicious mayo. Yummy! We also had a tofu salad that they made vegan for us, and vegan pizza. So, so good and different from the regular Japanese meal. We had a vegan brownie too: so soft and scrumptious. Everything was great. Only one negative aspect: it’s a smoking restaurant. Nobody smoked while we were there, however keep it in mind.

Pros: Vegan menu , nice English speaking staff

Cons: smoking restaurant

Great vegan food in Osaka

There's not a lot of vegan options around Osaka but this spot in shinsaibashi really hit the spot. We ordered 2 slices of pizza from the vegan menu, as well as vegan poutine and some drinks. Only came to around 3000 yen total which is very affordable with drinks included! The food was very good too. The poutine was super tasty and the pizza had a lot of vege topping with a crunchy base and crust.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Not expensive , English speaking staff

Mixed feelings - would give 2.5 if could

Ordered: Vegan jackfruit con carne bread bowl. Got a decent (read: on the small side) bread bowl with jackfruit and beans.

This place is fairly straightforward to find. It's on a street that runs off the long Shinsaibashi shopping street. The staff speak English fluently and the menu is clear about which options are vegan and which are not.

I have mixed feelings about this place for two reasons:
1) They didn't seem to have as many vegan options as other reviews indicate. I was keen to try the mushroom fish and chips but did not see it on the vegan menu. They did have a vegan special happening though - the jackfruit con carne. As soon as I saw it, I was sold.
2) The jackfruit con carne was DAMN GOOD. Especially the bread; it smelled like it had been baked fresh earlier and had a nice flaky crust with soft insides. For the price I paid though, I would have liked to see a bigger serving size, and I'm a fairly small-sized eater. Then again, they did specify on a chalkboard outside the restaurant that the food by itself probably wouldn't be enough to satiate unless you ordered some alcohol. I may have ordered some alcohol if it was dinner time but as it was lunch and I was with my family, I didn't. I'll allow others to make their own judgements about whether the serving sizes are reasonable.

As a final note, this restaurant is a smoking location. This wasn't a problem to me personally but if you're not a fan of smoking locations, be aware of this.

Pros: Menu clearly delineates vegan options

Cons: Small sized portions (in my opinion)

Great food, great staff

I was lucky enough to be staying close to this gem. Went here every day I was in Osaka and got to try most of the vegan menu. Everything was delicious. Do yourself a favor and get here ASAP.

Pros: Food, Staff, Location

Great food, smells like smoke

The food was great (we went twice!), just ask for the vegan menu. Only complaint is that there were people smoking right bedside us both times we went - although this is normal for Osaka/Japan in general it was a mood killer.

cozy restaurant, good beers and food

I went here yesterday and I liked it a lot. It’s well located and it has a nice atmosphere. The food is really good, the portions are medium sized and they have a wide range of alcoholic beverages. The prices are great compared to other vegan restaurants in Japan.

Pros: service

They have a vegan menu!

This restaurant was very nice. I asked for the vegan menu and ordered a slice of pizza, vegan bites and a fudge brownie. The vegan dessert changes so don't always expect a brownie. The food filled me up and the waitress knew English!

Pros: Vegan menu, Alcohol is served, Good vibes

2.5 stars would be fitting

This Canadian/pizza place recently created a full on vegan menu with a decent number of options. I recently went with a group and between us we ordered several things from the menu.

We were all glad they're making the effort, but they still have a ways to go; everyone's main issues were the price to portion ratio (even considering this is generally something encountered at places in Japan) and the overall lack of flavour (save for the okonomiyaki). No one was full from one item and some weren't after two.

While I was glad to be able to get a vegan poutine, most of us felt they'd be better off offering half as many options but doing them as properly as the non-vegan dishes. Keep at it!

Pros: Variety, Vegan poutine!

Cons: Prices, Portions, Flavour
