Vegan Izakaya Nijiya 虹屋
Vegan Izakaya NIJIYA is a tiny, intimate venue with only seven counter seats, specializing in traditional Japanese vegan dishes including soy meat yakitori and grilled miso rice balls. The set menus, such as the large Nijiya course, combine multiple authentic flavors with a unique homely izakaya dining experience where guests watch food preparation up close. Due to its popularity and limited seating, guests often face wait times up to an hour or more, especially during dinner hours.
