Vegans well catered for in buzzy sushi and Robata restaurant

Have been here a few times now and loved it every time. Not wishing to put a downer on Plymouth but I was surprised at how upmarket this restaurant was when visiting for the first time. But it's classy without being stuffy. Children are certainly welcome and I've seen lots of families here as well as couples on dates.

There are vegan options clearly marked on the menu but some that isn't – it's worth asking the staff to point out what else is ok to order.

Our usual order now is the vegan maki platter followed by teriyaki tofu with tempura veg and cauliflower katsu. The cauliflower katsu is amazing – it's fried to perfection and the curry sauce that comes with it is the best Japanese curry sauce I've ever had.

The service is really friendly while still being professional. I liked that they noticed when we ordered the vegan options and then swapped out the enriched soy sauce on the table for a vegan-friendly tamari sauce instead.

Good selection of sake. Be aware that the price of the meal goes up substantially if you order sake and cocktails, but they are very good quality.

Pros: Excellent, attentive service, Some vegan options clearly marked, Excellent standard of cooking

Cons: No non-dairy milk for coffee, Limited selection of vegan dessert, Some vegan options not clearly marked
