Teppanyaki Rai - Ninohe

This is the first time that I experienced vegan teppanyaki and it was amazing! we sat at the theke I recommend so that we could watch the chef cooking. he was a nice guy and we talked a lot. he is new for vegan cooking, but he is really excited about it and he plans to expand the vegan menu to include new items. he told us that he used separate grills for vegan eating and not vegan eating to reduce the risk of contamination. he could also tell us what drinks were vegan or not, and who had to add that could not be very healthy. they had vegan sake from the local brewery, nanbu bijin, on the menu. I ordered their umeshu planted wine it was delicious! this desire is made without any approaches, so it is completely natural. the menu has a lot of vegan options. the chef also said that he can make things that are not on the menu. for example grilled vegetables, etc. I look forward to going back sometime and seeing how the menu has changed! updated from the previous review on 2022 03 13

Teppanyaki is one of the most popular restaurants in japan. with teppanyaki will cook the cook meat, seafood and vegetables while they observe. yes, this type of restaurant used in the regular animal products. but this is not a normal Teppanyaki restaurant. amazingly, we can also enjoy teppanyaki as a vegan. they cook vegetables and plant-based eating before us on the iron grill, just like normal teppanyaki. it was so exciting for me. because I was never able to go to a teppanyaki restaurant since I became vegan. their food was really good and creatiw. I was so excited when I tasted her sandwich. this food is prepared with nanbu senbei, vegetable cheese, rice and wine glue. it was so amazing. and they were so friendly. for example, they show us what kind of ingredients and season them, so I was relieved. also, I enjoyed talking to them while they prepare our food. I'm sure they can enjoy the food and good talk in this invite. updated by previous review on 2022 03 13

Teppanyaki is a Japanese dish that is very popular in overseas. they can eat vegan while watching the best technique with the teppanyaki!

You can eat delicious vegetables, grains and mushrooms from Iwate prefecture on an iron plate. I thought tofu steak was the most delicious. The chef is a teppanyaki professional with over 30 years of experience. Also pay attention to performance.

Original Review (March 2022): This is the first time I have experienced Vegan Teppanyaki and it was amazing! We sat at the counter, which I recommend, so that we could watch the chef cook the food. He was also a really nice guy and we ended up talking a lot. He is new to vegan cooking, but he is really excited about it and he is planning to expand the vegan menu to include new items. He told us that he uses separate grills for vegan food and non vegan food to reduce the risk of contamination. He also was able to tell us what drinks were vegan or not, and which ones had additives that might not be very healthy. They had vegan certified sake from the local brewery, Nanbu Bijin, on the menu. I ordered their umeshu (plum wine) it was delicious! This sake is made without any additives so it's completely natural. The menu has a variety of vegan options. The chef also said that he can make things that are not on the menu. For example, grilled vegetables, etc. I'm looking forward to going back sometime and seeing how the menu has changed! Update (March 2023): We finally got a chance to go back to Ninohe and try all of our favorite vegan foods there again! We were especially excited to visit Teppanyaki Rai again because the chef, Shiga san, told us that he had been developing some new vegan menu items in the past year! One of these new options was vegan okonomiyaki! Available with all sorts of add ins (different kinds of vegetables) and made without using flour, it is a healthy and delicious version of okonomiyaki! I am definitely going to try making it at home sometime! We also ordered the garlic rice, peperoncino pasta, and pizza senbei, same as last time! Everything was delicious. I especially enjoyed the pasta! My husband had Nanbu Bijin Umeshu and I had Pineapple juice. About half way through our meal, Shiga san told us that he had developed a vegan dessert, a crepe (made without any eggs or milk) filled with vegan ice cream and anko, topped with kinako, date syrup, and fried goma senbei. It was AMAZING! I literally have never eaten anything more delicious than that. I was already pretty full by the time dessert came, but I could have eaten two more because it was just that good. I absolutely recommend it. I will be going back as soon as possible Updated from previous review on 2022 03 13
