when they leave the elevator in the fourth floor of the okonomimura building, turn right and go to the last stall. this is raw! although nothing on the menu is vegan (or even vegetarian) as-is, the cook was very courteous in the creation of custom okonomiyaki for my man and I enjoy. at each step of the art, how he clarified which ingredients we could or could eat and put out some delicious Japanese pancakes. we had a...

Friendly employees who know veganism and make a Hiroshima style okonomiyaki. Probably not as tasty as the real thing, as many ingredients are omitted to be vegan, but still quite good. A fun experience with them make it before you. View all feedback.
I had appeared early because this place is very popular, I couldn't get a seat the night before. The food was pretty good, quite tasteful
Finally a veggie okinomiyaki! Waiting was long and the food service lasted an hour, so ready to wait. But the cook used a special vegetarian dough and made me adapt the toppings. If you want to avoid cross-contamination (see below) just ask that it be served on a dish instead of grill. He used separate spatulas for the Veggie.
First, the amount of spring onions YES. When you visit Roku just tell the owner you’re vegan and they will sort you out. I got okonomiyaki with spring onions and mochi. Deffo recommend mochi for vegans! It’s yummy and has a great texture. Since I speak Japanese I chatted with the owner about what else could be added since we realized the kimchi he had has fish in it. I mentioned these days vegan soy cheese can be food easily in many supermarkets now so hopefully he will be adding soy cheese to the menu someday. If you visit and speak Japanese please tell him too!
Taste-wise, this was my personal favorite of the three vegan okonomiyaki we tried in Hiroshima. Filling, perfectly balanced flavors. The only thing I didn’t like was the unfair pricing— there’s nothing already vegan on the menu, so they suggested we order something minus 2 ingredients and adding 3. Fine, but at the end they charged us full price for the meat-free okonomiyaki PLUS three toppings. Seems unfair to charge us full price for an okonomiyaki without meat, but welcome to Japan. #Veganuary
What an incredible spot. The owner was so friendly and accommodating, asking questions to ensure everything he was using was ok! Cannot recommend enough. If you’re in Hiroshima GO!!#Veganuary
