Cute Japanese restaurant

Had a really good time with two set, and drinks, the service was perfect and the old tenant lady really kind.
I had the tempeh and it was really tasty, fresh and different from what you can buy in stores.
Really fancy the atmosphere, green and cute.

Pros: Hot chocolat , Tempeh was delicious, Nice music

Cons: Only takes cash

The rice is not vegan! BEWARE

This restaurant seems to offer lots of nice vegan meals, however the rice they use is cultivated using ducks. The farmers cut off the ducks’ wings so they can’t fly away and use them during the cultivation and harvest period to eat insects so they can reduce pesticide use and increase the harvest. When the harvest is completed, the ducks are killed. There are many varieties of vegan and organic rice available in Japan, but sadly this form of “organic” rice is cheaper to buy in bulk, so some “healthy/organic” restaurants such as this one use it.
Although some of the desserts are plant based, I don’t recommend vegans eat at this restaurant. We emailed and messaged with them about this and they said they weren’t interested in changing the rice. 3 months has passed and nothing has changed. It’s a very misleading menu that labels non vegan foods as vegan.

Shocking… thanks for sharing this important information. I will look out for it from now on.

They called it Aigamo nouhou 合鴨農法. I think most vegan restaurants would never use it, but the organic cafes/restaurants that offer plant based/‘vegan’ menus sometimes use this type of rice.

Yum

First of all I was thrilled to find a mostly vegan restaurant. All Japanese restaurants have been meat heavy. We had a lunch combo with vegan cutlets and a seitan sandwich. Both meals were delicious.

It was ok

The Restaurant offers a Set Menu where you can choose from different vegan Options. The Food came quick but was not very hot. Food was good but i would not come back again.

Pros: There are vegan Options

Cons: Only Cash, Small Portions , Food was not hot

お米はヴィーガンではありません。

お米は合鴨農法で鴨を利用して栽培されたお米です。飼育を終えた鴨はその後、肉となってしまうのでヴィーガンではありません。お米が使われていないバーガーやスイーツはヴィーガンです。ヴィーガンケーキとヴィーガンアイスクリームが美味しかったです。

Cons: 使われるお米の栽培方法はヴィーガンではない。

The set menu is great value for money, and the food is really tasty, especially if you like it crusty.

Kissa Saeki

Venue
Classy & sophisticated. Lots of wood. Seating for around 40 people at the most I’d say.

Service
A nice welcome. Shown to a choice of seats. Menu pointed out and they gave me around 10mins to browse before they came to check if I was ready.

Food
I had the large curry with an extra cutlet. A creamy, not so spicy sauce on sticky rice. A little bowl of salad with it. All tasty.

Price
1450jpy which is less than I’d pay at Spoons at home in the UK. Well worth it.

Enjoyable & Filling

In Kissa Saeki I discovered the joy of flavorful vegan cuisine. The filling vegan hamburger patties, enhanced by delicious miso and rice,l. This delightful experience reminded me that delicious food can be both nourishing and satisfying, encouraging a vibrant, conscious lifestyle for all.

Pros: Heartwarming food, Authentic atmosphere

Nice enough

I got a vegan tempeh bowl, which comes with salad, rice and soup. Quite good, nothing amazing.
I went on a Monday 5.15pm and I was only one there till close.
Cash only!
Just read a previous review on here after eating there that the rice is not vegan wtf! The dish is clearly labelled vegan and I even checked before ordering

Good value! Tasty!

A great spot in Hiroshima fairly close to the Peace Park.

Items are clearly labeled, prices are great, and the food was tasty! 800-900yen tempeh burgers!

Ambiance is good and the place is clean.

This was the best place I ate at in Hiroshima over two days, so I definitely recommend it!

Nice!

Good food with a good portion and plenty of seating. But not something I think is essential if in Hiroshima.
Chocolate cake was a miss but the ginger lassi was good when the ice melted a bit!

Cash only and the staff were not pleased I was 3 yen short and had to lift money at an atm.

Molto buono

Durante la mia permanenza a Hiroshima, ho pranzato due volte in questo locale e i piatti vegani che offrono mi sono piaciuti molto. Le porzioni sono piccole, ma saziano! Inoltre anche il locale è molto carino.

Great lunch options

Nice cafe serving vegan menus and cakes. Vegan options are clearly labeled and they cook vegan food separately (they serve chicken as well). Staff is very nice!

Really nice bean burger

They had a couple of different vegan options, I got the bean burger and it was sooo yum! And scones for something sweet, they were a little crispy but had a very nice flavour!

Good Burgers!

Portion sizes are small here, but very filling. We tried all versions of the burgers (we came multiple times!) and they are quite nice although you only get the burger itself and some menu items are only available after 11am (like the vegan croquettes)

Vegan options and spacious dining

They do not do a set menu as per previous reviews, there is a variety of vegan options - some available at 10am and others at 11am.
We ordered the fried cutlets burger for breakfast - they did not come out looking like the picture on the menu, it was a sandwich with no other sides or sauces. Portions are good (reflective of Japanese portions) and the burger/sandwich was filling tasty. Staff were friendly and restaurant was clean and spacious.

Pros: Friendly, Spacious (not cramped)

Great organic cafe with options

We ordered the curry set, cutlet burger and croquettes set. The menu clearly specifies vegan options. Everything was delicious. The burger bread was amazing! We also got the scones, chocolate fudge and chocolate tart for dessert, also delicious. On the pricier side but to be expected for an organic cafe.

Pros: Clearly marked, multiple vegan options

Adorable café with good vegan options

I had the lunch set with the seitan katsu and it was delicious. This isn’t a fully vegan place but there are a lot of vegan options (including cakes) and everything vegan is cooked separately.

Super Burger !

Nous avons opté pour le double Burger côtelette (simulé par du kurumafu) qui était vraiment excellent. L'équipe du restaurant était très sympathique également.
Petit plus, il est possible d'acheter plusieurs produits car il y a un petit coin épicerie dans le restaurant.

Pros: Burger au kurumafu , L'équipe , Le coin épicerie

Friendly cafe with tasty vegan food!

The cafe itself is very spacious, bright, and welcoming. We were seated instantly and the staff were very friendly. One guest had a peanut allergy and this was easily accommodated.

The food was very fresh and healthy. We all opted for vegan tempeh burgers. The buns were super soft and tasted home-made, and everything was quite tasty. Would reccomend coming here, as it was enjoyed by both vegans and non-vegans.

Relaxed cafe with great options

Went in for lunch and had a great set menu of pickles, rice, miso and burger with a salad, bread and humus on the side. Scone and coffee to end things.

Incredibly tasty, if small portions.

Got caught out with no cash as they didn’t take cards when I visited.
