Overpriced but tasty - Edit
I enjoyed the food I ate today and it was great to have so many choices at an entirely vegan restaurant. The food was quite good but I’m not sure it entirely warranted the cost. I would probably not visit again unless I was in a pinch and needed to find something I could eat as a vegan.

Those pancakes really are heavenly - Edit
Wasn't Journey located in Kabukichō and closed for a while before relocating, or was that a fever dream I had?
Read moreAnyway, Ain Soph is one of the first fully vegan restaurants I learned about in Tokyo, so it holds a special place in my heart despite being expensive/mainstream. Since the prices are a bit steep, I can't try as many options as I'd like every time I visit.
I finally got to taste their famous Heavenly Pancakes, and I loved them! Please don't expect Japanese fluffy pancakes -- the lack of eggs, milk and butter gives these a scone-like texture. I actually find regular Japanese pancakes to be disgustingly eggy and too heavy, so I loved these (scones are in my top 3 pastries for sure).
Sad that the seasonal choice of ice cream was rum raisin, though (Iwould have loved regular soy/vanilla flavor), but the whipped cream with roasted nuts was fantastic.
I hope I can get rich soon, and maybe try one of their "everything" dinner courses -- the wraps and salad parfait looked so good!!
Pros: Well-established, they know what they're doing, Presentation
Cons: Expensive, Portions are on the smaller side

Pancakes - Edit
Really good. Very fulling. Got the pancake set meal for lunch. Am currently very full. It came with a salad parfait, tomato soup, a tea, and tje pancakes. Also got a side of soy cutlets. Nice calm restaurant vibe. If you can ask for the window table upstairs.

All vegan menu!! They have vegan course meals which seems rare.

Nutritious and Delicious! - Edit
What an enjoyable dining experience - a generous selection on the menu, each serving full and abundant, leaving you satisfied, but not gluggy and over-indulged. Delicate and well-balanced flavours, attentive service and considerate touches like lemon and mint water that you can continue to help yourself to free of charge during your dining pleasures.
Read morePros: Thoughtful extras like lemon and mint water to, help yourself to, beautiful light-filled spaces, , well-presented dishes, changing specials.
Cons: It gets quite busy here so call ahead or line up, early to avoid the long wait and queues!

Great food - Edit
I ate here twice on one trip and once on another. The food was great on all trips, especially the dry curry and the kara-age.
Read moreHowever, the staff were very rude on two separate occasions. I don't expect to be waited on hand and foot, but our food was pretty much thrown at us. It's not enough to stop me going back there.
I particularly liked the biscuits and treats sold beside the till. It was hard to find vegan sweets so these came in handy.
Pros: Amazing food, Decent portions
Cons: Staff can be rude

~heavenly biscuits~ - Edit
Went here for the ~heavenly pancakes~ even though they were more like biscuits than the fluffy pancakes I was expecting. The toppings, like the whipped cream and ice cream, were a little much but you can eat around it. The mocha latte was pretty good. Overpriced imo but a nice option! It was hard to find at first but it’s literally right outside the train station.

Ain Soph - Edit
I've eaten at this Ain Soph location a few times, it has a nice balance of being casual and is a little nicer. The food is always decent, but nothing I've been jumping up and down about.
Read moreThe savory food is OK and the most memorable thing I've had is the salad served in a tall cup. I think I mostly remember this because of the odd presentation though! The fried "chicken" nuggets were OK. The pancakes are very delicious. I'd say if you have to choose one thing here, vegan pancakes it is!

Delicious food in bright venue - Edit
We had a salad bowl, salad with dips, tomato soup, fettuccine with basil pesto and lotus and eggplant, cheesecake and ice cream with fruit. We also had coffee with soy milk and a beer. Everything was delicious, except the coffee that was ok but not great. The venue was bright, staff were friendly and service was quick. I’d be keen to come back to try more on the menu if I could. We were lucky and got a table straight away, but it seems it’s often packed so they provide a list of nearby restaurants with vegan food to help people who can’t get a table, which I think is pretty sweet...
