Yummy karage - Edit
Cute little restaurant with tasty nibbles. The karage was particularly delicious, as were the desserts.

Traditional Japanese Food, Vegan! - Edit
We made an advance reservation for 12 people and they fit us in two tables. We pre-ordered all our food and desserts and they were very accommodating - I don't think they are used to serving such big parties all at once, but we had a great experience.
Read moreWe ordered almost one of everything on the menu (unfortunately I don't have pictures of them all) and I think everyone enjoyed their food. The curry was a little spicy by Japanese standards (but I thought it was delicious). We had one person (non-vegan) who ordered the Kitsune Udon and she absolutely loved it. Like other reviews mentioned, the omu-rice (omelette) was a bit strange - the omelette was more like a pancake.
Of the desserts, the berry mousse cake was the best by far (in my opinion) and the matcha cheesecake was a bit underwhelming. The matcha parfait was a fun dessert!
Pros: Ichiju Sansai Traditional Japanese Cuisine

Komaki Shokudo Kamakura Fukushikian - Edit
The restaurant offered a variety of vegan Japanese set meals - choose main dish and rice ( you can choose size and type of rice like azuki brown rice or regular rice) and traditional Japanese side dishes
Read moreGreat place to enjoy Japanese traditional meal and sweets, you can make it healthier if you opt brown rice
I went to lunch which is cheaper but dinner has more selections of dishes and also dessert!
If you want to eat dessert ( I wanted to eat grilled dango which you can grill at the table ) you need to book!

Pros: Great way to try traditional Japanese meal, Menu available in English, Lunch set is quote affordable
Cons: Dessert needs to be BOOKED beforehand (lunch only)

Small treasure - Edit
I had the Komaki lunch set meal, it was delicious! The crunch of the fried fu was excellent. I also had the chocolate mousse cake which was also great. I recommend this restaurant, although like others have said, a reservation is ideal as there are only 5 tables available!

Delicious but pricey - Edit
All vegan menu and it was very delicious! The Ramen broth was amazing. As a vegan I was spoiled to have so much choice but didn’t expect it to be that expensive.
Read moreOn top of that there was a bit of kitchen issue where they somehow just took forever to prepare the meal for my partner. We waited around 30min for our food and after my food arrived we waited for my partners meal for about another 10min , then I started to eat😅 (my partner still waiting… hence the almost finished meal) We went 1 hour before the kitchen closed so idk if that had an impact. Still I was kind of upset😒
Pros: Food was amazing
Cons: Price, Long waiting

Good spot tucked away in a small mall - Edit
Small restaurant within Chabara Mall near train line. It’s right beside a food market and coffee shop. The menu was fully vegan with a good amount of Japanese style dishes. We got the vegan “chicken” karage and the udon noodle soup sets. Both good. My only negative remark was that it was quite pricey for the amount provided comparing to other restaurants.

Cozy restaurant with tasty food - Edit
We ordered the Karaage set and Kitsune Udon. The Karaage set is diverse and offers several tasty side dishes. The Karaage itself is soft but a bit on the blander side, the sauce definitely compensates for it.
Read moreThe Kitsune Udon is very tasty and it was a perfect meal after a long trip. The tofu in it is sweet (which was a surprise to us), but pairs well with everything else.
The only downside is that it is a bit pricey though.
Pros: Fully vegan, Very polite staff
Cons: Pricey

Overrated - Edit
In my opinion, too expensive for the food we got. Sure you get multiple little dishes but none of them was anything special besides the karaage. They raised the prices from the pictures in google maps and we didn't expect to pay that much. One time and no more.
Read morePros: Karaage
Cons: Expensive, No toilet inside restaurant

A hidden gem - Edit
Stumbled across Komaki Shokudo one evening and we were fortunate enough to get a table without a reservation. The food was delicious and filling, and we'd love to go back.
Read moreThe atmosphere feels a little unusual, with everyone sat in almost complete silence but this made a welcome change to the busy-ness of the outside.

Nice little tasty place - Edit
Nice little restaurant with friendly staff. We tried two different menus, and both were delicious, though the one with the fried soy was particularly good—better than the other, in our opinion. We visited when it was quite empty, so it was comfortable and spacious. The restaurant is located in the ground floor of a shopping mall.

Beautiful and tasty - Edit
Choice of sets, all vegan and in the Buddhist style. Absolute lifesaver for two very tired vegans on their travels! The cafe is tucked in the back corner of a little shopping complex under the railway lines just up from Akibaura station. Turn right as you enter and walk through to the end. Offers ryori shohin sets starting from 1950JPY.

Disappointing - Edit
Summary: looking for vegan shojin ryori? Go somewhere else, anywhere, this is expensive and basic. All other vegan places are worth more. (Also if you are gluten free this is only offering you a boring curry, go anywhere else)..
Read moreContext: I've been coming to this place for 8 years, it's up and down, but recently it's mostly disappointing. The food is absolutely not worth the price (this place costs close to 10000 yen for two) and it's quality is below any other shojin ryori offering vegan in Tokyo.
If you are gluten free: absolutely forget this place and don't be tricked by their reservation form, after all that hassle, you will arrive and the options are a curry and that's exactly the same that would happen if you just come unannounced (I've done both). Again, disappointing food, disappointing behavior with reservations and accomodations, extremely expensive for what it is.
Cons: Unprofessional, Food quality varies a lot
