Ogawa Japanese Cafe

Several Vegan options are available both on the entree and the main menu, however be sure to let the staff know you are Vegan so they only use Vegan seasonings on your meals.

The meals are quite subtle in flavourings (a touch under for our taste), but quite pleasant and filling. On our first visit we chose the Vegetarian Special Rice and the Vegetarian Special Noodle Soup along with the Gyoza entree (probably the highlight of the meal), Miso soup and edamame. On the next visit, we were most impressed with the Miso Nasu (eggplant).

Items on the menu that can be made Vegan or are by default Vegan include:

Spring rolls
Miso Soup
Edamame
Gyoza
Miso tofu/ miso Nasu
Vege fried rice/ Vege fried noodle
Vege special rice/ Vege special noodle soup

The staff have been exceptionally helpful in outlining the options both at the cafe and via facebook.

Something a little different. There does not appear to be many Vegan options in the area that are not indian or thai. The food itself can be a little plain, but flavour can be added via the table condiments (soy sauce and spice mix). The gyoza and miso nasu are probably the stand out dishes.
