This experience was absolutely exceptional and worth every penny. My wife and I(and our two friends) had an absolutely incredible time with a focused and hard working omakase staff, incredible views on the roof of the yamabute of Odaiba and some of the best alcohol we've had on our trip to Japan. Every member of this staff gave 100% and we all feel incredibly lucky to get to know each of them. Would definitely do this again.

Vegetarian Dining Experiences in Japan

In a country as convenient and efficient as Japan (with 24/7 convenience stores located on every street), you would think that Japan has it all! But if you're a vegetarian in Japan, you might be faced with the challenges of finding something you can eat at restaurants, shops, and even the ready-made food aisles of supermarkets. Bento boxes usually include fish or meat products, and even miso soup is usually made with a fish-based dashi broth. But while it is important to be aware that Japanese cuisine relies heavily on the fishing industry (as should be expected of an archipelago surrounded by abundant waters), it is by no means impossible to find vegetarian food in Japan.

Don’t worry about invisible meat or fish ingredients! Find out what’s for dinner (or lunch) by browsing these vegetarian dining experiences in Japan. Restaurants in Japan are becoming more and more accommodating to those with dietary restrictions like vegetarianism. So why not show your support for vegetarian restaurants in Japan and chefs who are striving to provide plant-based meals to guests from abroad! Join a vegetarian dining experience in Japan, right here on byFood.
