This exceptional dish draws inspiration from a Russian game, promising a dining experience like no other. It's a special menu item with six rolls. One of these rolls is super spicy and pairs well with sake making it a creative cocktail experience. ### pickybethy — 5.0/5 · Aug 1, 2025 Shizen never misses the spot! Each of their vegan rolls is filled with texture and flavor! ### user_5e6b9b — 5.0/5 · Oct 17, 2025 Have been dying to come back to this place but vegan sushi never appeals to my friends. But this place is SO good and every roll I’ve ever had has hit. Would highly recommend - you’ll be surprised that it’s vegan ### carrier_foodie — 4.3/5 · Jan 12, 2026 Nice environment, short wait during weekdays (~15mins for 2-3ppl) but we sat at the bar. ### sarah_eats — 5.0/5 · Jul 14, 2025 Super creative and flavorful vegan sushi!
