Delicious - Edit
Our vegan family started our day on the island with lunch here. We ordered two tempura sets and one fried tofu set. It was all delicious. Very little English is spoken but our server was very sweet and understood what vegan means, I also showed her my vegan allergy card. If we lived near here, we’d come again!

Familiar atmosphere - Edit
After a long day of discovering the island we were very happy to get some well made vegan food here. We ordered everything from the menu and liked everything. We were very hungry 😅 The waitress was very nice and also warned us about the typhoon (which luckily didn't hit us) and gave us a vegan/vegetarian guide for the prefecture.

Separate vegetarian vegan menu - Edit
I was getting desperate for a vegan lunch in Miyajima where they serve the local oyster with virtually everything. I found this restaurant by chance as I was heading to the ferry terminal.

First Japanese Impression - Edit
This was the first place I've been to in Japan and although this place isn't vegan, they have a special vegan menu and they made a special and warm first impression for me on true Japanese food.
Read moreThe place is served by a few very nice elderly ladies which don't know english much, but it wasn't much of a problem and they quickly made sure we will get what we need.
The place is really comfortable and cozy with a very lovely cat walking around although quite expensive
Pros: Variety of Vegan food, Delicious, Comfortable and Cozy
Cons: Pricey

Simple food, nice staff - Edit
This restaurant is located across from the ferry station. If you go in and ask for the vegetarian/vegan menu they will gladly provide it to you! I verified with the owner that everything on that menu is vegan (and not a mix of vegetarian and vegan dishes), so order away! The food here is simple veggie Japanese food (rice, miso soup, cooked/fried vegetables and tofu), but it tastes good and is one of the better vegan options on the island. What made the difference for me was that I found the staff here to be especially lovely! They were very friendly and the older woman at the counter (perhaps one of the owners) made nice conversation with me about vegan food and my travels, so sweet!
Read morePros: close to ferry station, vegan menu available

I'd expected more - Edit
For 2000 yen the lunch really wasn't good enough. They basically put some vegetables on cold rice, what's tasty but not worth 2000 yen to me.

Wonderful - Edit
We are so lucky that we went to this restaurant, which is also a Ryokan.
Read moreThe people were incredibly warming and welcoming and gave us better maps of Miyajima.
They had a separate Vegan menue, where we tried the Sushi and the Tempurah. Both were very delicious and the chef came by and explained us every ingredient and how to eat it.
We were also given the chance to try the unique Nigiri plate, which was amazing. A must try if you look for a creative vegan dish.
Probably the best place to go to if you’re looking for an authentic, delicious dish. Location is also great right at the ferry station.
Give it a try - the lovely people will make your day.
Pros: Extremely kind staff, Creative food, Great location
Cons: Not so many options

Fantastic vegetarian experience - Edit
This was superb. The waiter / chef was incredibly attentive and explained very carefully what each item was and reassured us about the veggie broth available (over Dashi based soup). The tofu was the best I've ever had. Hands down. Loved it! Definitely go here for an interesting and traditional meal.

Great meal and very welcoming - Edit
Lovely place with 5 options on the vegetarian/vegan menu. We shared the sushi set and tempura set and got plenty of food, including miso soup, bowl of rice and pickles. The miso soup and sushi set were especially tasty. The lady there was very welcoming and helpful telling us what everything was.

Finally! Authentic Vegan Tempura - Edit
Tried their vegan tempura dish and it was amazing! Highly recommend. I love eating Japanese food and wish more vegan options were available. Tempura is rare to eat because of the dashi (fish stock) dip and the oil they deep fry it in. I was very happy to receive this option. A bit pricey but tasted great.

Delicious! - Edit
Stopped in for lunch upon arrival to Miyajima, I asked for the vegetarian set and specified no Dashi in my soup and the lady came back with an entirely different vegan menu which was fantastic. I changed my order to the nigiri and it was so gooooood and a Dashi-free miso soup😄she gave me tea as well and didn’t charge me for it, very friendly.

Good food - Edit
Went here for lunch whilst on Miyajima. They had a good english menu with a separate vegan/vegetarian menu. Not too expensive considering being on a very touristy island. Mine was ¥1200 and it was really good! Great place to eat if you are looking for vegan food

Cons: maybe not the most exciting food

Good vegan options - Edit
Had a lovely lunch here. There is a sign outside offering vegetarian and vegan options. At first the woman who seated us brought the wrong menu that didn't appear to have any veggie stuff, but then when we asked she brought a separate special menu (has English text). One of us had the veggie nigiri sushi set and the other had the veggie tempura set. Both were delicious and beautifully presented. One of the friendly local deer wanted to join us for lunch too!

If you can have dinner here, do it. The menu is limited but they are super keen to tailor to your needs. They call out vegan on the sign out the front. The staff are wonderful.
