Itadaki Kinkakuji

This cozy Japanese-Western diner sits just steps from the Kinkakuji Golden Temple and offers a single dedicated vegan set meal featuring soy meat, rice, and salad. Popular among both locals and tourists, the restaurant serves reasonably priced, filling dishes with fast service and a friendly, accommodating staff. While most non-vegan dishes feature traditional Japanese-Western fare like hamburg steaks and cutlets, vegans need to ask about the off-menu option, as the main menu lists only one vegan dish.
