Pleasant

Cute wooden tables, helpful and happy service, easygoing and relaxed atmosphere with a kind of believable Japanese vibe. And the food - good Japanese options for a vegan, but there always is, really. Had a sort of fancy green sushi set along with a plate of king oyster tempura and, of course, the always reliable seaweed salad. The sushi was topped with a curry-peach sauce, which really elevated things and made it interesting. Crunchy filling, chewy and creamy with the avocado topping (whilst of course making ample use of the soy sauce - why does it always taste better at restaurants?!), really enjoyable overall actually, given that it wasn't something I'd experienced before. I wouldn't bother with the ginger or wasabi that comes with it, it's fairly generic. Anyway, king oyster is incredible when used properly, and these were succulent, juicy, with a lovely light , crispy tempura batter. The dipping sauce was nice and zippy, too. Seaweed salad - can't go wrong. I love slimy food, and this one was nice enough. There's enough variety for us on the menu to go back a few times. Didn't bother with a drink other than the bottled water on the table as I found the prices a little high, but it was a good experience overall, so not a complaint. Quick service for both hot and cold dishes, and attentive service with knowledgeable explanations of what was vegan or not. Alternatives available for some non-vegan dishes.

Pros: Variety, Aesthetic, Service

Cons: Plenty of non-vegan food
