Staff have good English and can recommend based on preferences. The menu is clearly labelled with allergens. Note that the venue operates as 'Second Room Cafe' during the day, serving meat, before transitioning to a fully vegan menu at night.

The venue is widely described as vegan-friendly, with a separate vegan menu available on request. Vegan okonomiyaki is made with okara powder and uses no animal products. However, the same grill is used for non-vegan items containing meat, seafood, and eggs, so cross-contact is possible. Staff (the owner) is reported to be knowledgeable about vegan needs. Classed as strongly trusted: dedicated menu and aware staff, but shared cooking surfaces.
Sukhasana is a 100% plant-based Neapolitan-style pizzeria, reported fully vegan since September 2021. The owner is the sole employee and the kitchen is entirely vegan, so dairy, egg, and other animal products are structurally absent.

Honest caveat, No information is available about how the kitchen handles other allergens like gluten or soy.
The restaurant is strongly vegan-focused with a menu entirely built around plant-based ingredients. However, some items such as chocolate have been reported to contain dairy milk, and the kitchen is not certified by a vegan accreditation body.

The kitchen is shared (no separate vegan section needed since everything is vegan), but no evidence of dedicated equipment or formal training for cross-contact with non-vegan items (none present). A reliable choice for vegans.
Honest caveat, No caveats: the venue is 100% vegan by concept, so the vegan classification is structurally safe.
The venue offers a separate vegan menu with several clearly labelled vegan ramen options, including Zesty Vegan, Genuine Miso Vegan, and Osaka Black Vegan. Staff are knowledgeable about vegan needs and can make all dishes vegan if requested. However, the kitchen is shared, and some reviews note that vegan options are not always available. The base broth for vegan ramen contains soy and wheat, so cross-contamination with non-vegan ingredients is possible. Confirm with staff before ordering.
The venue has a dedicated Vegetarian/Vegan menu with items marked with vegan and gluten-free icons. The owner-chef actively asks about dietary restrictions and understands veganism well. However, the kitchen is shared with meat and fish sushi, and no dedicated equipment or cross-contact prevention is mentioned. Cross-contamination risk exists.
Cafe PRANA describes its menu as fully vegan and allergen-aware, but the kitchen shares space with a cooking school where some animal products are used. Multiple reviewers confirm the food is vegan and one recommends the gluten-free baked cheesecake. There is no marked menu and the cooking school's mixed ingredients mean cross-contamination cannot be ruled out.
