Tasty tempura and sushi - Edit
The vegetable tempura is excellent, as is the sushi. They were short staffed and forewarned us that it would be a long wait to get our food, which we were fine with; we spent about an hour in the restaurant.

Good taste, cheap price - Edit
We really liked this place, the sushi had a good taste and the price was fair. Try the teriyaki rolls, they are very delicious. Expect a longer waiting time when the place is full, because there only work 2 people.

Good vegan sushi! Loved it - Edit
Small cosy restaurant. Amazing sushi, not the ‘typical classic’ sushi place. Different vegan menu, also different vegan side options. Good sushi and tempura! Loved it!

Great place - Edit
This little place seems to suffer a bit from being off the main routes between the centre and the station. Really good, fresh vegetarian sushi (not just cucumber) and also salad (delicious dressing) and edamame beans. Vegetable tempura and cheese-based options are also available, which we didn't try. Plenty to choose from for the non-vegetarians in the party and a friendly welcome both evenings. We normally try different places, but after our first visit didn't bother looking for alternatives. Thoroughly recommended.

A gem - Edit
This small sushi restaurant had the best sushi and lots of vegetarian options. I had the “Fresh vegetable roll” and the “Crunchy Avocado Roll” and asked to substitute the mayonnaise for spicy mayonnaise which was accommodated for a small charge. It was the best sushi we’ve had since we arrived. There is limited seating and they are short staffed, but we were seated immediately and enjoyed the extra time. We have found in Japan that service tends to be rushed and this was a respite.

Love small restaurant with veggie sushi - Edit
I've struggled in Takayama to not find beef restaurants and stalls everywhere. This place has 4 types of veggie sushi, veg tempura and fries. The tempura was light and varied. The California rolls were delicious and I wish I ordered 8, not 4. The veggie rolls are also good, very large x4. They also do a Hida steak, which was great for my non-veggie husband so catered to us both. Mine cost around ¥2000 Inc a gin&tonic
Read morePros: Wider selection of veggie than most, Quiet, family run atmosphere , Great thing battered tempura

Great Sushi and Tempura - Edit
The sushi and Tempura were delicious and the pickled ginger was some of the best I’ve had. I was excited to try the soba salad because Takayama is known for soba, however they used an American-style Italian dressing on it which dominated the flavor and made it hard to really appreciate the soba. Staff had a solid understanding of vegetarian and vegan and the chef lived in Texas at some point and spoke solid English and Spanish

The best! - Edit
Many vegan options- starters, salads and sushi. After I ordered I saw they had a tofu teriyaki steak.
Read moreOrdered a seaweed salad (amazing taste, very small dish), vegetable salad (very good as well, nice portion), japanese pickles (also good, small dish), and three sushi rolls (asked for the vegetables roll without mayo), the rolls were very good.
The restaurant was completely full when we went in, so they immediately said it might be a long time, and apologized few more time.
Pros: Very tasty, Many options, The nicest owners

OK veggie sushi - Edit
There are a few standard vegetarian and vegan sushi options (cucumber, avocado), vegetable tempura and some side dishes (pickles). Unfortunately, the soups contain dashi, i.e. fish broth, which could not be left out. I expected a bit more effort after seeing the sign outside.
Read moreNonetheless, it was a very nice dining experience and the hosts are very welcoming and understand vegetarian/vegan requests.
