Vegan
confidence 70% ·
Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.
The menu explicitly marks vegan options (VE) on several dishes such as Buckwheat porridge, Field pea whipped tofu, Roasted eggplant with miso hummus, and Koshihikari rice pudding. However the kitchen is shared with non-vegan ingredients (meat, dairy, eggs, shellfish) and the allergen disclaimer notes that the kitchen handles nuts and shellfish and cannot guarantee completely allergen-free food. Vegan diners can order marked dishes with confidence but cross-contamination risk exists from shared kitchen equipment.
