Gonbachi Hattsuanan Pachinko
Serves meat, vegan options available. A very traditional, homey Japanese restaurant in the middle of nowhere, near Keio University Shonan-Fujisawa campus. Has lots of veggie options including curries and noodle dishes, and will make dashi without fish upon request. Desserts appear to be mostly vegan, including various things made with agar agar, rice flour, sesame, and soy and tofu ice creams. Uses all or mostly local produce. Name: Gonbachi へっつい庵 ごんばち. No or little English spoken, and menus are in Japanese. Open Mon 10:00am-5:00pm, Wed-Sun 10:00am-5:00pm.

Authentic, accommodating - Edit
Out in the remote fields nearby Keio Shonan-Fujisawa University campus, this is a very traditional feeling Japanese restaurant, which uses all local produce and has a homey vibe. There are a number of vegetable dishes, and they were able (upon request, in Japanese) to make the dashi for the mushroom hoto noodle dish without fish. It was a big, hearty noodle soup, full of veggies and mushrooms, which came with beans on the side and tea. We scoured the dessert menu (which is in Japanese), and it appears that most of them are likely vegan by chance, including both tofu and soy ice cream. There were several things I'd never seen before, and I ended up choosing kurogoma pudding, which is a black sesame seed jelly, very smooth and creamy. I also tried amazake, which is a thick, sweet drink made from fermented rice and something to do with leftovers from sake production.
They also have a little corner where you can try out calligraphy, and sell some seasonal local produce.
