Vegetarian
A spacious vegetarian restaurant that features Japanese cuisine with a few western dishes as well. Menu offers a selection of vegan sashimi and sushi rolls (with mock salmon, eel, avocado...) plus other choices like vegan ramen, tempura, gyoza, hand rolls, katsu curry, and bento sets. Dishes can be made vegan upon request if they're not already. No alcohol, egg, or the five pungents used. Moved to this busy locale on the ground floor in 2011. Open Mon-Sun 11:30am-2:30pm, 5:00pm-9:00pm. Last order 2.30pm and 8.30pm.

My hubby and I will be going for the third time in 6 days. We have loved everything we have eaten and drunk so far- it is a bit pricey yes but you definitely get what you pay for. Food Service is very quick and the staff are very, very friendly.
Read moreThe first time we went, it was so packed we had to sit outside…
I also really really appreciate that you get pictorial evidence/guide of the dishes so you are not left guessing whether you like it based on ingredients alone (slight rant but it is such a simple concept that should be incorporated at ALL restaurants- it also makes it easier to try something new.
Anywho if in the area, I thoroughly recommend!

Completely tasty Bentos - Edit
I went here twice and was thrilled both times with the variety of tastes in the Bentos (had the Unagi Bento and the Katsu Curry Bento). Both filled me up and delivered a great Japanese taste. The Unagi Don in particular had the perfect smoky signature sauce.

Great food! - Edit
Unassuming Japanese vego place in the middle of Bencoolen area. Easy to find in Fortune Center. Herbivore is probably my fave place to eat at in Singapore. I wouldn’t say the best for I have not visited all the veg places in SG. I stayed for 6 days and I barely scratched the surface of plantbased dining. But so far, in those 6 days of eating out, Herbivore is defo on top of my list. Full on flavour, delicious eats, good service. Attentive staff even when they’re packed. Highly recommended and will definitely go back again in the near future.

Japanese delight - Edit
Had lunch here and the food was amazing. The gyoza was crisp and delicious. The ‘pork’ skewers were by far my favourite. The ramen was underwhelming but not bad. Efficient service and good food !

Good Japanese vegan food - Edit
Restaurant itself feels outdated and quite dark. Wasn’t a big fan of that. I arrived before my friend and they made me wait outside for her even though i asked if i could already get seated and brows the menu. Found that a bit bizarre.
Read moreIn the menu they had plenty of vegan options to choose from. We ordered several dishes and really liked gyozas and unagi rolls. Soup was underwhelming in my opinion and tempura that goes with it a bit bland.
I would go again to try the other sushi rolls.

Great sushi but not the rest - Edit
I found this restaurant to be a mixed bag, as some of their dishes was amazing (sushi!) but some of their curries I didn’t like at all and couldn’t finish the dish. Their staff was not helpful, as there was two double orders which we didn’t do and when we explained to them they said we still had to pay for it. So we ended up paying double for two dishes we didn’t order. Was disappointed all in all with the visit

Delicious Japanese Vegan Food - Edit
If you have a difficulty to find a good, tasty vegan sushi, you need to definetialy try Herbivore. It is vegetarian/vegan restaurant and the menu clearly indicates which products contain dairy (they not use egg in any dish), which is very convenient for vegans. I did not asked about option of veganizing any vegetarian dish because there are huge amount of options available. Definetialy will come back to try other dishes!
Read morePros: Many vegan options, Clear indication of vegan options, Nice atmosphere
Cons: Not cheap

Many delicious veg/vegan choices! - Edit
Most veg singaporean would have been here! One of the google search pop up for vege foodie~ This restaurant sell Jap vege foodie and we had the below for 60ish sgd. Staff are helpful and restaurant is spacious. Try to make your reservation early as they seems to be fullhouse most of the time when I went. Below foodie are suitable for Vegan too.
Read more✨ Teriyaki Chicken - I find this dish very well presented (like the plating ~ haha !) and ok with this dish... but find it a little salty. Non Veg SJ find this no go as the “meat” is dry and sauce is salty (he is picky mannnn...). We could not finish this. Love the ginger deco tho! Wish there was more ginger hahaha
✨Non dairy spicy ramen - this dish came with dairy but can opt for no dairy. I had this and enjoyed a lot. Love the soup! So flavourful. Thick savoury kind of taste. ~Ask for lesser noodles if you ain’t a big eater as noodles portion is generous. Love the ingredients in it!
✨ Miso ramen- SJ had this and love his soup more than mine... but I prefer mine more hahaa #tasteissubjective
✨ wakame as side - love this. Cause it’s simple yet yummm!
✨Ocha in pot for 9sgd - simple tea drinks and warming...
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Lots of vege options, Meatless establishment

A must for Japanese food lovers - Edit
Environment: Simple, cozy, no-frills
Read moreFood: It is very hard to find a decent Japanese vegetarian or vegan restaurant in general. This has been one of the best I have been in my life. Lots of choices for bento and soup noodles. Staff would be able to recommend vegan options. Do make sure to ask for vegan substitutes if you are ordering bento as there are quite a few things in it.
Service: Friendly, attentive, caring
Price: Medium range
Pros: Bentos are like "happy meals"
Cons: Could be crowded with a line during lunch

Best "unagi" I've ever tried! - Edit
We discovered this place when we were trying to look for another vegan restaurant in the Fortune Centre and we're glad we stumbled upon this one! We ordered a side dish of ginger ($2) because we love ginger a lot, the unagi maki ($14) which was bang on flavour and one of the best vegan sushis I've ever tried (and we've tried A LOT), the teriyaki fish ($14) and 2x California handrolls ($5 each). I love handrolls and this place really packed the handroll full, and replaced the salmon with an extra crabmeat because the sashimi isn't vegan. Four thumbs up from us!! The place got really busy as soon as we sat down, but everyone seemed to get a table as soon as they came in, so great timing! If you like sushi, then I highly recommend trying this place.
