Great okonoyimaki and service!

I went at about 6 pm and only queued for 10/15 min. Staff took my order when I was close to the front of the queue. Because I was dining solo I got to sit at the counter and watch them make the okonoyimaki for the whole restaurant - amazing. This is my third okonoyimaki of my Japan trip and honestly the best one. It didn't seem to be missing anything despite being vegetarian and the vegan ones looked good too. I recommend getting soba rather than udon as your base!!

Bit dissapointed

The vegan option wasn’t that good. If you want Okonomiyaki, please have it in Kyoto or Osaka where they have great vegan options for it

Great veg for

We waited a while, but it was worth it, they had a dedicated veg/vegan menu.

Best okonomiyaki I've ever had

Hiroshima style okonomiyaki is the BEST oknomiyaki. If you are visiting this city this place can not be skipped!

Nice to try vegan okonomiyaki!

We arrived at about 7pm and queued for around an hour to get in. The vegan okonomoyaki options aren’t the most exciting but they have both a normal and spicy vegan sauce to add and we also got vegan gyoza. On food alone it’d be 3 stars but rating 4 for ambience (you can see the food being prepped and have a hot grill in front of you to keep food warm) and being able to try a traditional dish veganised (my husband isn’t vegan so good to have a place that caters for multiple diets).

A fun experience but not the most exciting food

This was a fun place and we enjoyed watching the food being prepared but unfortunately the vegan option wasn’t the most exciting.

They have vegan sauces but no vegan mayo which was a disappointment.

Also worth noting that if you sit at the counter then you will see all dishes being prepared including many meat and seafood based ones.

Three Okonomiyaki Options + Side Dishes

Yummy Okonomiyaki! Basically the same choice with more toppings available. They also had Gyoza and Edamame as sides. It was delicious and a great option!

👍

They have three Okonomiyaki menu (but 2 of them are too simple, I’ve ordered most pricey one) and taste is okay!
It’s good to try Hiroshima food here. ☺️

They have vegan Okonomiyaki sauce on every tables. I wish they had vegan mayo too.

I had been in a queue over 40mins, this place is very popular:)

Good Vegan Options

A couple vegan options. Very good, but make sure you get there super early, wait times can get to 2 hours. Definitely worth it.

Tasty and a few options

I have a vegan option here which was tasty but ultimately mostly noodles with some corn and spring onions. The vegan sauce is delicious with a little spice to it. Would be improved by the addition of a vegan mayo

Very good

Great flavor, would definitely recommend a try. They offer two sauces and remove any non-vegan items from your table if you only order vegan. I enjoyed the warm and lively atmosphere.

Just ok

It’s great that they have a separate vegan menu. The vegan dumplings were good but in my opinion the okonomiyaki was quite tasteless.
It was a wait to get in. I wouldn’t go back.

Pros: Separate vegan menu

Cons: Long wait in the cold , Quite tasteless

This place is worth the wait in line! I love this style of okonomiyaki as it feels lighter somehow. Jam packed with noodles, cabbage, corn and bean shoots (I also had egg and cheese but they serve a vegan one), they also give you vegan sauce! I initially thought there was no way I would be able to eat it all but actually there is no way you could leave any, it is that good!

Exceptional food and ambience

This was one of the best meals I have ever had. There was quite a long wait at 6pm on a Monday, but it was definitely worth waiting for. There are a number of options, clearly marked, for vegetarians. The okonomiyaki was simply divine and will live long in the memory. The spicy sauce was so good that I bought a bottle on the way out.

Pros: Food, Spicy sauce, Ambience

Cons: Long wait

Vegan options but not that yummie

We waited 45min (like expected from the comments below). My fiancé liked the okonomiyaki but i am not that happy with the 2 vegan dishes... they only taste of the onions which are added, the sauces to use for more taste did not help to "rescue" the taste. The ginger ale was tasty and refreshing.

Vegan ones are pretty much tasteless

The place is located very close to the dome and museum. The wait time is quite a lot. I reached there at 6 and had to wait about an hour to get a table. The menu clearly marks vegetarian/vegan options. They clearly make the vegan options with separate utensils and oils and clean the countertop once before they start cooking. The staff is really great and is one of the highlights of being there. There are a good number of options but they taste a bit bland. Vegan options need something more, it just didn't work for me. I added a lot of sauce to the okonomiyaki to get some taste but to no avail. The price would be about 1500 yen for okonomiyaki.

Pros: They give special vegan sauces that are quite good, Location, 2 star because of the staff

Long queue, appalling vegan option

After a long queue we realised the vegan options were extremely limited. We had the okonomyaki with the longer list of vegan ingredients. Despite it being basically the same as the non vegan options minus the non vegan ingredients, the price was higher than the non vegan options. I would not go back. One star for the nice servers and the experience of seeing it cooked in front of your eyes.

Long queue, and I preferred other okonomiyaki in Hiroshima

We waited for about 45 minutes for lunch here, probably due to its proximity to the peace park and a-bomb dome.

Once inside, the experience was really fun and there were some obvious vegetarian options, but we found the okonomiyaki to be lacking a bit of flavour. At the time we wondered whether this was just because vegetarian okonomiyaki generally lacked a bit of flavour, but we tried okonomiyaki again in Okonomimura and found that much better, so I'd recommend trying there instead.

Pros: Fun to eat it directly from the hot plate, Clearly labelled vegetarian option

Cons: Lacking flavour, Long queue

Long wait, food is ok

Long line. The food was ok, but not incredible.
They have vegan gyoza, this is not common!
The vegan okonomiyaki was ok. But the overall experience was nice 🙂

Many vegetarian options and big portions

There was a queue but it went very fast and staff handed over menu to people waiting, so that we could order in advance and food was served soon after we were seated. Prices were around 1300-1600 yen. The place inside is very nice and dishes are served one a hot plate in the middle of a table.

Pros: A lot of vegan/vegetarian options, Nice atmosphere, Located in the city center

Cons: Waiting times

Try it once if you have time

Waited an hour to get in and then 30 minutes for the food. The staff was friendly and did everything to smoothen the process. The food was ok, nothing special, the experience was more important here. Portion was big however.

Pros: Clearly marked vegan options

Cons: Waiting time
