Well worth seeking this out!

Vegan Taiwanese street food - love it - especially the mapo tofu. Sadly, I can’t try everything on the menu!

Nice selection of vegan dishes

It was tasty food, at mid level prices and I enjoyed it.
They had complimentary WiFi.
The person who served was friendly and cheerful.
You order using a touch screen with various language options available.
I had one of the set menus and there was the main dish; a "meaty" sauce over rice with some pickled vege accompaniment, with sides of fried wontons, salad, and a sort of mashed vegetable.
There was also self serve miso soup, condiments and hot/cold water.

Pros: Tasty, Extras like soup and condiments, Hot/cold water dispenser

Love it

Really great food for a really good price prepared by really nice people. They have a wall with really cool political statements on it. And the best part is, everyone is allowed to add their own one. Few political statements are not so cool. For example people that support genozide, but you can just rewrite them.

Pros: Cool wall, Great food, Cheap

Cons: Some visitors supported Israel

Wow!

This restaurant is really worth it. The owner makes everything on his own and is very kind. The food was delicious! We will come again😄

Divine vegan food

The soup noodle, gyoza, chilli oil wonton were great, and reminded us of vegetarian food in Taiwan. They were freshly prepared. What topped it all was the 'douhua' - soft tofu with grass jelly and bean dessert - which made us nostalgic for that in the Taiwanese night market. Highly recommended.

Pros: Excellent Taiwanese vegetarian food, Fresh and tasty, Very reasonably priced

Cons: Nothing!

Cheap and good

Gyoza and the other dumpling were good, not super tasty. The beef cutlet(?) is like plain seitan and you can add sauces, wasn't super good. I should come back and try other things that include it's own sauce.

Update: Went back, got the yakisoba and the chicken nuggets, absolutely delicious.

Nice Taiwan style street food for Vegans

Amazing Taiwan street‑food flavors. Every dish was excellent. The wonton soup, fried wontons, minced braised vegan meat rice, and fried noodles. Even my daughter, who usually isn’t a fan of veggie dishes, enjoyed them all.

Pros: Authentic Taiwan street food flavors., Reasonable pricing., Freshly cooked food.

nice place with self service

very nice and tiny place. The baozi and gyoza are amazing. We had the mapo tofu aswell which was decent, probably just not my taste i tried it for the first time. The wonton soup and the fried rice were great. Accepts credit card despite sign at the door says it doesnt

Delicious and very fresh

We were here at lunch time. Orders and payment is by a vending machine. The shop was run by one person, nevertheless the food came very quickly and was super fresh!

A miso soup is offered for free!

It was nice to mix different dishes.

Everything tasted very good!

Tra le 3 e le 4 stelle

È stato buono ma dalle recensioni mi aspettavo qualcosa in più, abbiamo trovato il buffet fornito ma non molto abbondante, molto apprezzati i refill gratuiti di riso e zuppa.

Tasty food, with loads of flavour

Has recently changed to a buffet self service style where you pay by weight.
Has a good selection of veggies, fake meats and tofu.
Complementary miso and rice. Also lots of home made sauces. The spicy fermented bean paste is a must try!

The best!

I love Taiwanese food. Unfortunately in Kyoto there is none.
When in Osaka you should go here.
It’s so much cheaper than many other places on Osaka.
A lunch set for 1000 yen.
The owners are very friendly too.

Delicious and affordable

Saijiki was great! It's not Japanese food, but Taiwanese. It's delicious. All vegan. And it has a good portion size for the price. I would recommend if you are looking for delicious and good value vegan food.

Pros: The portions and price, The spacious restaurant, The food quality

Cons: None

Awesome Taiwanese Food

Delicious food at an affordable price in a quirky little restaurant with an ordering machine. Don’t follow the directions from Happy Cow it will lead you down a random alley into a carpark, search it on google maps instead

Pros: Great food, Affordable

Closed :(

Went for lunch today (5/23) and the restaurant was closed even though Google Maps & the website both said it was open. Hopefully the hours can be updated!
