Great Takoyaki!

We are vegan and allergic to gluten. Until now, there were no vegan takoyaki around Namba and Shinsaibashi stations. We had given up on trying the local cuisine, but we have found the one and only takoyaki.
It was wonderful. We ordered the takoyaki plate and the 1500 yen kushikatsu, both of which are vegan and gluten-free. The takoyaki is made with soybeans instead of wheat flour, so it is very healthy and hearty. Drinks are only 200 yen and you can make your own. My friend was pleased with the wide variety of scotch and bourbon. Gluten free beer is also available for 200 yen. Highly recommended.

Pros: affordable, All Vegan Menu Also suitable for gluten-free, Cool Place

Amazing all Gluten-free,vegan!!
We came here during a quick stop in Osaka Namba, so it came in handy that this place is close to Shinsaibashi station. Coming here lifted my entire mood and you can’t beat 200 yen drinks. Takoyaki is cheap at 680 yen.

Amazing vegan takoyaki in Osaka.

If you are down for healthy option ototako makes its batter from okara, the byproduct of tofu, and it’s very delicious.
I have been to its sister store that does okonomiyaki as well and they are both delicious.
Highly recommended

A perfect place to have a few drinks

All menus are gluten-free and vegan.
Takoyaki is 680 yen. I'll make my own drinks for 200 yen. It's cheap, voluminous and delicious. It's also good for takeout and eating around.
It's in Shinsaibashi. It's a short walk from Namba, the downtown area of Osaka.

happy place:-)

All menus were Vegan.
Gluten-free vegan takoyaki is 680 yen, and drinks are all 200 yen, which is very cheap.
Osaka's soul food.even vegan people can eat takoyaki.
The only place in Osaka. It is located in Shinsaibashi, so access is easy.
Close to Shinsaibashi Station and within walking distance from Namba.

Pros: All are vegan menu

Best option for Vegan

This restaurant gave us the option of eating Vegan takoyaki. The takoyaki are priced at a whopping 680 yen.
All menu items are gluten free and Vegan friendly.
All drinks are also two hundred yen (that's a typical sized cup, not a scam by any means).
The store is located in the Namba area of Osaka and is easily accessible, just 5 minutes from Shinsaibashi station.

Pros: taste, Atmosphere, All of it, if that is allowed!

Small and funky

Grunge 90s music, small funky place with glitterball and self-service drinks. Friendly owner/chef working hard to make delicious vegan balls and some sides. Highly recommend this place to solo travellers or couples. Takeaway also available.

Pros: Friendly service, Quirky surroundings, Delicious food
