Lovely okonimyaki - Edit
Here I ate an incredible okonimyaki! The place was small (maybe fifteen seats) and was upstairs, but it is not a place that you sit for so long so it is worth waiting, because as I said, the food was delicious! There were several different vegan options, I chose one with udon noodles with extra topping, vegan cheese. Go here if you are in Hiroshima!

Would give it a 5 if I could - Edit
Had the two vegan mains and they were absolutely incredible. Maybe some of the best food we've had in Japan. Super satisfying crispy noodles ok the bottom. The vegan egg and cheese substitutes were awesome. They have a vegan specific menu, and they provide vegan specific sauces.
Read moreAbsolute must for a visit to Hiroshima. Well worth the wait.
Pros: The food, Clearly vegan, The atmosphere

Amazing Food and Atmosphere - Edit
During our 3 day trip to Hiroshima we went here twice! The vegan options are collected on a separate page of the menu. Both, the Okonomiyaki and the Jirokichi were “oishii”. Sitting at the counter is also a nice experience, as you watch how the chef prepares the food. The chef was also very considerate and he cooked the meat for the other guests on the other side of the grill away from us, using different tools, without us asking.

Great okonomiyaki - Edit
The place is on the second floor of a building but easy to find. The okonomiyaki is amazing and so far the best food i had in japan. Because of the vegan egg and soy meat as possible toppings you dont feel like missing out on anything either.
Read moreWe had spots directly in front of the chef and were able to see the food being prepared, which was pretty cool.
If you are 3 people or more i would recommend making a reservation.

Seperate vegan menu - Edit
We tried both vegan okonomiaki options and two vegan starters. Everything was very good. Since we came shortly after opening the plate was not in contact with meat before.

Amazing vegan okonomiyaki - Edit
Really easy for vegans, plenty of options. The chef is really welcoming, you may have to wait for a seat. Food was perfect and there's even a little guide on how to eat it.

So very tasty - Edit
I had the vegan Okonomyaki with vegan cheese, vegan egg and soy meat. It seemed the thing to do. It really hit the spot.
Read moreBe aware that they cook on the same grill as meat, but they too care to clean it a bit and separate from other things.
Shop is ln 2F and fills up fast.

reserve a table! - Edit
we had very good Okonomiyaki here, but we needed to wait 45mins for an opening as they are usually fully booked! if you order a vegan dish from the menu, they still ask you if „egg is okay“, so maybe say no if you‘re vegan 😂 they‘re really cool though and welcome people from all over the world (the walls are covered in handwritten reviews).

Great food , loads of choice - Edit
A little tricky to find as it’s on the second floor and they were full when we arrived, but they took our name and gave us a reservation to come back later, and I’m glad we did. Super friendly, great food and lots of choice - it suited me as a vegetarian and my husband as a meat eater. Don’t be too fussy though as they do cook the food on the same hot plate. I was relieved to find some genuine Japanese’s food that I could actually eat and was really tasty.
Read morePros: Good vegetarian choices , Super friendly staff, Really tasty
Cons: A bit tricky to find, Very small so you may be turned away, Meat and veggie food cooked on the same

Very tasty Okomiyaki - vegan & vegetarian - Edit
The vegan option had vegan cheese, vegan egg and vegan sauces. Since my boyfriend is vegetarian, he got his Okonomiyaki with egg and cheese. It was clear that the chef had a good understanding what the difference is.
Read moreHe also cleaned the surface before starting on our food and rinsed his spatula. You sit directly in front of the grill, so be aware that you will see quite some animal ingredients prepared in front of you.
Pros: Fully vegan Okonomiyaki with vegan egg and cheese, Vegetarian option too, Quick and friendly service
Cons: Fried food smell, Everything prepared on one grill (cleaned though)

Es gibt eine Seite für vegane Optionen. Ich hatte die vegan Roll und bin einfach nur begeistert! Würden wir länger in der Stadt bleiben, würde ich morgen gleich nochmal hin gehen. Absolute Empfehlung und auch deutlich besser als das Nagataya Restaurant

Excellent vegan food - but not for the very strict - Edit
The vegan menu has a number of fantastic options and everything we tried was delicious. The restaurant is tiny and popular with locals; the few westerners we saw were all eating from the vegan menu.
Read moreHowever the food is prepared on a large teppan, right next to the meat and fish dishes. The chef took great care to keep the food apart and used separate oil, sauces and utensils for the vegan food. But there is no way to guarantee zero cross-contamination in these circumstances so if you’re very strict it might be better to avoid (try Keith over the road)

Brilliant Hiroshima okonomiyaki. Such a great experience! Book a table for this place as it is very popular and not too big. They cook everything in front of you and everything we had was excellent.

Great, delicious, wonderfull - Edit
2025-04-18 we visited this very nice izakaya. From the little street outside we almost didn't see the restaurant but it is wonderfull! It is on the second floor of a very small building. We had the chance to sit directly next to the plate where the chef grilled the okonomiyaki! Great authentic show while waiting. We got extra vegan sauces. Fantastic experience.

Just what you wish for - Edit
I went to Hiroshima 8 years ago as a vegetarian and tasted okonomiyaki, and I fell in love. I fell in love so hard that my hopes of actualy finding a vegan okonomiyaki that matched the expectations were quite low. But rest asure, this place was EPIC. They provided the flavours, the atmosphere, the fun and friendly staff. They provided vegan mayo (hell yeah! I havent seen any other places do that! And vegan "egg" (havent seen any one else do that!). And it just is not right without the mayo and the "egg" just made it feel more like the original thing. And by all means that was what I was after.
Read moreOk so the cons? We waited for an hour to get in. Was it worth it? Yes. Would I do it again? Yes. The place is small. Like 19 seats, 4 tables for 4 people and some seats infront of the chef. Propably not for people who are very sensative to things cooking at the same place as animal-origin food since all the tables they fry on (including the one in front of your table) is used for this. And even tho they clean beteeween custumers it's still a frying surface and the cleaning might not be 100% what you want if you are sensitive.
Pros: So tasty!, Perfect if you want the real deal, Cosy, genuin atmosphere
Cons: Not many seats, Se comment above

Vegetarian Dinner - Edit
We were there last night and had a couple of vegetarian dishes for dinner. They were the Hiroshima style Okonomiyaki dishes. Excellent and delighted to have a table for four. Highly recommended!
