so good! I cannot recommend this place enough

The restaurant is not entirely vegan, but there is a separate menu full of amazing vegan option. I wish I could have try more food.

We got the vegan Dan Dan noodle and the Vegan udon and both were delicious.

Quality Choice in Hiroshima

As I’m writing this I’ve been in Japan for two weeks, and I can count on one hand the number of restaurants I’ve found with a vegan menu - it’s not common here. So finding Taiko while in Hiroshima was a pleasant surprise. They have a vegan section of their menu, and many other items can be made vegan if you ask. The staff largely speaks English and they take credit cards (both things that make life a little easier for a traveler from the States).

Pros: Good food , Great staff, Inexpensive

Great service and great food 🥦

For vegetarians it's important to know that even the dishes that don't contain meat (e.g. the ones with tofu or seaweed) contain fish!
We mentioned that we are vegetarian in the beginning and after ordering they came to ask us if this is ok. Great service! We were able to change to the vegan version.
They have a "Vegan Set Menu" but it seems like it is extremely much food. Instead, we ordered 1 Udon for each person, I added an additional topping and we had some Tempura (fried vegetables) on the side. It was too much to finish it all. The Udon is huge. There's no need to order any sides to get a full stomach.

Pros: Great service, Great food

5 stars! Chef's Kiss 🧑‍🍳😘

Bliss in a Bowl.

Had the Soy milk Dan Dan Noodles, and just got teleported to the Dimension of Blissful, Fully Satisfying meals.

All vegan.

We started off with light tempura - it arrived a spectacle of beauty.

If you haven't been here, hurry your way here as hurry as you can!

My dinner companion had a healthy seaweed udon and their iron levels have been nicely spiked.

Pleasant atmosphere, impeccable service. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
🧑‍🍳😘

Pros: Blissful taste, Satisfying portions , Elevated atmosphere

Cons: Nada - prices good too.

We had a beautiful bowl of udon here yesterday. It was so flavoursome and hearty. Ordering is super easy through a QR code and all the vegan items are in their own category which was great.

Tasty Udon

Our first Udon in Japan and it was a really tasty experience. The noodles were long and thick und chewy. The sweet tofu was really sweet!!
The broth was very salty (i like it salty but even for me it was at the border).
Staff was friendly and attentive and the dishes are affordable.

Delicious Vegan Udon

This restaurant has a robust vegan menu! We had the dandan and seaweed udon and they were both spectacular memorable meals. We upgraded the portion sizes, which in hindsight was probably too much food! Highly recommend!

Vegan Tempura!

Really impressive tempura with a generous serving size considering it’s vegan. I had the sweet tofu udon which was light and refreshing. One of the few meals that has left me feeling full! Restaurant had a great vibe and ordering straight from the QR code was very handy.

Pros: Ease of ordering, Presentation, Atmosphere.
