About

This small local okonomiyaki restaurant near Kinkakuji lets diners cook their meal on a griddle at the table, with staff guiding the process. Vegan choices are limited: reviews specifically recommend the vegetable curry, while the separate menu is vegetarian rather than fully vegan, so check ingredients and preparation with the staff.
