Lots of vegan options in this department store cafe - Edit
Huge amount of vegan options in this cafe including sundaes, taco rice, purple potato pancakes. Soy milk is available for drinks. I had the taco rice, amagashi sundae and a matcha latte. I’ll be back again for the pancakes! You can also find some vegan biscuits and pastries at the counter. The souvenir section next to the cafe also sells vegan Cokofu biscuits and which can be wrapped for free.

Überraschend große vegane Auswahl🙌🏼 - Edit
Der Großteil der Gerichte ist vegan & richtig lecker! Empfehlen kann ich die deftigen Pancakes und die süßen Lila Süßkartoffel Pancakes, sowie das Curry.

Lots of Vegan Options - Edit
A nice cafe on the 2nd floor of the Ryubo Department Store with great opening hours and A LOT of vegan options! We had the vegan taco rice, vegan fish and chips, and the pancakes with purple sweet potato. I felt like all the dishes had a bit of a generic taste overall, but nevertheless they were all still delicious!

Go for the curry - Edit
We tried one of their curries, a burger, pancakes and chocolate sundaes. The curry was great, large portion and very cheap, the burger was ridiculously small (served with exactly 4 potatoe chips!), the pancakes were good, the sundaes tasted weird (more like pure ice without any sugar). The curry was clearly the option so if you go there that's all I would advise to get, but they're worth it.

Lots of Vegan Options! - Edit
The cafe was based inside a mall and they had lots of vegan options from savoury to desserts. Unfortunately a lot of them were sold out as we went at around 2:30pm but we still managed to get a taco rice!

Great vegan options! - Edit
After failing at two vegan restaurants in Naha (they didn't have more food), we went for vegan options. The food was really delicious and I was surprised that they actually have more vegan options than non-vegan. Some things were sold out (sadly), but what we had was great and of course dessert :)

Good options - Edit
Everything is clearly labeled, and there are quite a few vegan options. I had the multigrain burger, tea, and an amagashi sundae. The burger was delicious; the multigrain bun was especially good. The sundae was really sweet and very tasty. I also bought some scones to take away, which were tasty, too. Prices were relatively inexpensive, and the service was good.

Good choice of food, fast and a nice place to rest - Edit
There are many vegan options from main meals to breakfast (pancakes) and desserts. The taco rice (an Okinawa speciality but usually with meat) and drink set was very good value.

Japan vs. America - Edit
there is a distinct difference in veganism between American and Japanese vegan food. I have gone to several places while in Japan, and the most recent has been Rakuen Cafe. I have gone to several places while in Naha, Japan. Vegan food in Japan they choice ingredients that are very earthy, with distinct differences in texture and flavor as well.

Okay - Edit
It was a while ago but I tried their curry and ice cream. It wasn’t anything special but they were one of the few reliable options in this area.

Great vege options - Edit
Had lots of vegan options clearly marked on the menu. I had the Vege Taco Rice and soy milk ice latte. Both were good. The taco rice was nothing too crazy but happy to have ticked an Okinawan special off the list.

Great pancakes - Edit
Tons of vegan options, rice bowls, salads, curry, three types of pancakes (two sweet and one savory) and desserts. I really liked the vegan soft serve, made from soy milk. It has a nice texture and not overly sweet. They also have free wifi. Nice place for working too.

Many vegan options - Edit
Over 80% of dishes are vegan. What I really liked that they clearly marked the ones as vegan, even with the nice vegan symbol, wich others even vegan places don't do (e.g. naming with the misleading "plant based", etc. names). I really wish they become fully vegan at some point. The cafe is spacious. Many tables to seat. Social distance measures very well organized. Unfortunately only deserts were available this time, but I think that this is temporary due to corona based lack of customers. Anyway I enjoyed the vegan strawberry pancakes and the ice cream. Wish them to resume full business soon. Not possible to give them 5 stars because not fully vegan, otherwise I would.
Read morePros: Many vegan dishes, clearly marked.
Cons: Only deserts and drinks this time.

3.5 stars, almost all vegan - Edit
Modern cafe where almost everything is vegan. The portions are small for the price, and the tastes are nice, but nothing special. The drinks are quite nice, and the coffee is a nice addition in the set menu.

This restaurant was wonderful! I had the whole grain burger and it was delicious along with the sweet potato fries. It’s not easy to find vegetarian/vegan food in Naha or Okinawa in general so this was great.

Went 3 times - Edit
Due to its close proximity to our accommodation, we went 3 times. We had the burgers, which I really enjoyed and the cassava fries, which are delicious. Tried the sundae, which is definitely Japanese flavours, and yummy. We also tried pancakes for breakfast and the taco rice. All the food is nice. I recommend it.
