VEGAN REVIEW!
This is easily my partner and I's favorite place for vegan Japanese eats in Madrid. They have a separate, fully vegan menu as well as a vegan menu del dia for ~12€ during lunch hours. The restaurant is small but airy and modern, and the terraza is great for people watching on a warm day as it's right across the street from Retiro Park.
Our favorites:
-- Tofu Teriyaki Don (9,50e) // My partner's all time favorite dish, and one of my tops, as well. Super flavorful and the tofu has such great texture with a nice glaze. The vegetables are nicely charred and the fluffy rice forms the perfect base.
-- California Maki Vegano 8pzas (9,50e) // This version of a California roll is one of my favorites! Super fresh and has good texture and flavor.
-- Batata Tempura Maki 8pzas (11,50e) // I personally love a tempura roll, so this was a must-get for me. It's really good but a little pricey.
-- Agedashi Tofu (5,95e) // Super delicious version of this classic Japanese appetizer that almost always has fish in it! Such a treat, highly recommend.
You really can't go wrong with anything on the vegan menu at Yoshi. Everything is authentic, fresh and flavorful. The price is a bit higher than other restaurants, but for the quality of the food and service, as well as the neighborhood, I find it to be very much worth it. I've never disliked a dish here, which is why I outlined our favorites above. Service has always been friendly and helpful. They offer soda, wine, beer, tea and sake, too.
We'll continue to frequent this fantastic Japanese spot for satisfying vegan eats! read more
