Japanese Okonomiyaki in vegan

Was there with friends and really enjoyed it to have my vegan dish and they could pick what they want. Spicy sauce was quite spicy for Japanese restaurants. As others we waited quite a while.

Pros: English menu and extra page with vegan options , Separate vegan sauces on the table , Possible to buy vegan sauces there

Bland vegan option

Waited in line for 30 minutes to get a pretty bland meal. The sauce did come to the rescue however.

Pros: 2 vegan options

Average at best

We were so excited to come here after hearing that you could actually get vegan okonomiyaki in Japan. However we were sadly disappointed, it was merely some cheap rubbery noodles fried over some cabbage, no batter or anything to hold it together like real okonomiyaki. There was no flavour beside from some green onion and bits of garlic so we used the sickly saucez. It was nice they had a vegan sauce but no Mayo to balance it out. And I know it’s Japan and vegan food is hard to come by but i know for a fact that you can buy the vegan kewpie Mayo at most supermarkets in Japan. Anyway the reason this review is two stars and not one is because the service was good.

I will also mention that the vegetarian option didn’t look quite as bad being that it had an egg and batter to hold it together.

Pros: At least they had vegan options

Cons: The vegan options weren’t the best

OK Okonomiyaki

Bland and lacking ingredients but expected in Japan TBH. The only thing that saved it was the sauce. Just don't put too much on because it's super salty.

Delicious vegan okonomiyaki!

This place rocks!!! Thanks to all the fantastic reviews, my husband and I ventured out on foot in pouring rain, it was worth every step!! So fun to watch them cook. The process takes about 20 minutes from start to finish. They are so kind, conscientious, and methodical. The okonomiyaki was awesome! So many different layers - things I would never consider putting together. But it’s fantastic! Must try food in Hiroshima.

Pros: Vegan!!! , Delicious , Authentic veganized Hiroshima cuisine

Vegan Hiroshima Yaki

Nagataya is very conveniently located closed to the Atomic Bomb Dome and Peace Park, and this is truly the place to go and try the Hiroshima version of okonomiyaki. They have a vegan section on the menu with three different types of okonomiyaki, but the staff was more than happy to modify everything to our liking. The moment we ordered the our vegan okonomiyaki, they removed the non-vegan sauce and mayo from the table and brought out a vegan sauce. Everything was really delicious, but be warned - the garlic chips while really delicious, stay with you throughout the day (and night)! One thing the restaurant can improve on is get a vegan mayo too - even Nisshin makes one, even though it’s not specifically marketed as vegan.

Easy, fun experience

Nagataya is a very foreigner-accessible way to enjoy Hiroshima okonomiyaki. The restaurant is comfortable with all types of dietary restrictions, as evidenced by their detailed English menu outlining ingredients, cooking methods, and recommendations. It’s a no-nonsense, lively way to experience okonomiyaki! There are three labeled vegan options, as well as one side (edamame), and several drinks. They even have vegan-specific okonomiyaki sauce that they’ll put on your table if you order from their veggie options! Overall, I highly recommend it.

Pros: Several labeled vegan options., Comfortable with many types of diets., Very popular!

Cons: Crowded on weekends.

Great experience!

We never had okonomiyaki before but this tasted great! It was very filling and we loved the rice cake inside. Waiting wasn't too bad, but the place was crowded.

Delicious

This Okonomiyaki place is very famous and crowded but the atmosphere inside is amazing. I really love the old wooden style and the traditional way. They have a vegetarian and vegan menu with vegetables/cheese or only vegetables for vegans. The price for a vegan Okonomiyaki is about 1200 yen. That’s a fair and normal price. They also served an extra vegan Okonomiyaki sauce if you asked for. The taste was good but the vegan style was a little bit lame. Not so much vegetables and special.

Pros: Cool and traditional atmosphere , Friendly staff , Vegetarian & vegan friendly menu

Cons: Very busy and many tourists, The taste is a little bit lame, Cash only

Tbh best okonomiyaki in japan

If you had to go to one place to get vegan/vego okonomiyaki, go here. We had to wait 20 mins to get in but honestly it was so worth it - seriously, once you’ve started eating you’ll forget you even had to wait. Not too expensive.

Pros: 6 vego options , Not too expensive, SO GOOD

Cons: Had to wait in line outside

Good tasting, not cheap, not too expensive

Really yummy, spent 1200 yen. They change the whole thing to make it vegan, it was very different to my omni friend's one, still super good

Massive delicious meal

Nice traditional looking restaurant. Easy to order vegan okonomiyaki. Fun and interesting to watch them cook it in front of you!
Cooked separately from meat meals with different utensils. Staff offered vegan sauce with the Okonomiyaki. Very yummy however the portions are MASSIVE. Would advise sharing if you do not have a LARGE appetite.

Pros: Easy to order, Large portions

Cons: Sometimes busy - short wait

Vegan okonomiyaki

Bustling okonomiyaki restaurant. Couple vegan options, which are mostly stripped versions of the original. Good dish, nice service, but I felt that the vegan version was missing a lot of the soul meaning they could have found more inventive options. Worth a visit, though.

Waited nearly an hour and had high hopes. It was soba noodles with cabbage, onions and garlic chips. They provided vegan sauce, that was nice. But I was very disappointed in the food.

Pros: Friendly staff , Vegan option

Cons: Lame

Delicious, just as expected

We needed to wait in line for a short while and luckily were the last ones to be served before closing. Both my partner and I really enjoyed, I would love to go back someday.

Pros: Loved the restaurant, Fast service once we got our table

Cons: Wish they had more vegan options

Awesome “soul food”

This is the Hiroshima soul food - a must try for anyone visiting. Glad that we were able to try it. They cook your noodles completely separate (their normal noodles are cooked in pork), and they wipe down the grill before making your meals. They offer a traditional sauce which is also vegetable based as well. Highly recommend (vegan and vegetarian options available)

Pros: Vegan and vegetarian options

Amazing okonomiyaki

Cosy restaurant with vegan option, ate here and was lucky with only 5 minutes lines. They had two sauces that vegans could use and I loved the spicy one. Definitely one of my favorite things I did in Hiroshima.

Pros: Tasty okonomiyaki, Understands English , Cosy

Cons: Seems to always have a line

Super toll!

Hätte ich die Möglichkeit 5 Sterne zu geben, wären es 5! Trotz großem Andrang war es angenehm. Es gibt zwar Fleisch, aber vegetarische und vegane Optionen und extra vegane Soße. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und man kann den Köchen beim zubereiten der Okonommiyaki zuschauen. Perfekter Ort, um auch mit nicht-vegis zu essen!

Great vegan okonomiyaki experience

There’s three vegan options, all very well priced. The experience here is awesome and the sheer amount of okonomiyaki they are pumping out is very impressive to see. We had to wait about 20min to be seated but it’s well worth the wait. Taste and quality is great and there’s vegan sauce to go with it. Highly recommended when in Hiroshima. Great staff and service

Pros: Able to get the full okonomiyaki experience , Well priced , Get taste and service

Cons: There seems to always be a line to be seated
