• This place saved my life!

What a great little gem this place is. I am vegetarian, working in Sendai for 6 weeks, and i only speak English. My first few days here were hard going in terms of food - everything seems to contain meat or fish, and, not being at all familiar with the language, i was eating just plain white rice alot! And then i found Ohisamaya. Small menu of perfect, organic, veggie food. Veggie miso soup, brown rice, seasonal salads, rice balls, wheat gluten cutlets (amazing!) and veg fritters. Staff are so friendly and helpful, and even though they don't speak much English, they try so hard to help. Plus, there is an English menu now. Oh, you get delicious tea when you arrive. And the organic cakes & cookies are just yum! As the veggie options in Sendai are limited, I eat here several days a week, and I cannot rate highly enough!
