Question
I’m traveling to Japan soon and I’m vegetarian. I want to make sure I can find vegetarian options at restaurants. How do I ask “Do you have vegetarian dishes?” in Japanese?

Bejitarian no ryouri wa arimasu ka?
Do you have vegetarian dishes?
This is a helpful phrase to use when seeking vegetarian options in Japanese restaurants. “Bejitarian” is the Japanese pronunciation of “vegetarian,” and “ryouri” means “dishes” or “cuisine.” “Arimasu ka?” is a common way to ask if something is available in Japanese.
If you have any specific dietary restrictions or prefer vegan options, you might want to learn other related terms, like “ビーガン” (biigan) for “vegan”.
