Sushi Vegan/100% Plant-Based Vegan Options Asian Japanese Gluten-free Options

Review Summary

Shushu Haru is widely praised for excellent vegan sushi and flavorful dishes, with many calling it one of the best vegan spots and a standout dining experience. Some dishes draw critique, such as a tartare that was salty and a strawberry panna cotta whose texture disappointed after menu changes that followed the closure of a dedicated dining space, with the current menu available through the adjacent concept. The sushi is described as fabulous and fresh, though the menu has evolved and some favorites like the Blossom sushi roll have changed. The setting is well decorated and conveniently located near the canal, yet prices can feel high and service can range from warm and attentive to cold, with loud music sometimes affecting the atmosphere. Overall, the food remains the main draw and many reviewers say they will return to explore more vegan options, noting variability in the experience but a strong reputation for freshness and flavor.View restaurant profile

Hawaiian Poke Bowl Ice Cream Vegetarian Vegan Options

Review Summary

Kamé - Snack Bar Hawaien draws praise for tasty poke bowls and a diverse cocktail menu, with freshness and creativity in the dishes repeatedly highlighted. The atmosphere is described as unique, warm, and transportive thanks to a Hawaiian vibe, and service is frequently noted as attentive from start to finish. The spot is seen as a good option for a quick lunch, whether ordering to-go or staying in the food court, with bowls generally described as filling for the price. A vegetarian poke with mushrooms is among those highlighted as particularly tasty. However, value can vary, with mentions that one bowl like the WAIMANALO portion felt small for the price and extra sauces can add to the cost. A gluten-free attempt ended badly in one case when soy sauce was added accidentally, causing illness and prompting complaints about training and reimbursement, though some staff were kind. Safety and cleanliness concerns were also noted in one visit, including a rat trap near seating. Bubble tea is described as divine by some, and a house beer is mentioned as a refreshing accompaniment.View restaurant profile
