Nailed it!

I was absolutely stoked to come across Ripple when exploring the Shinjuku area. I had the chilli cheese fries with extra cheese and gauc (why not go all out 😅) and I was definitely left happy and satisfied. I also purchased a drink and cookie from the friendly, fast and english speaking staff. Although I wouldnt say it's cheap, the menu is easy to understand and offers a delicous variety of burgers, fries and drinks with treats available at the counter.

Pros: Good portions, Friendly staff, Easy for English speakers

Cons: Limited seating

Great for a quick vegan bite

We stumbled upon this place and were pleasantly surprised to find vegan burgers and fries in Tokyo. I got the vegan chicken burrito, which was only okay (wouldn’t recommend). My boyfriend got the cheeseburger, which was really good (would recommend). We found the atmosphere cozy and lively, and the other patrons were happy to make room for us to squeeze in. Not sure what MattHunter is complaining about in the review before—everywhere in Tokyo is small and crowded ha! It makes my heart happy to see a vegan restaurant packed to the brim. This place is great! And they have sister restaurants with different menus in other areas too, which we might check out.

Pros: All vegan, English menu, Convenient location

Ok food

Had the burger and a salad. It was ok but nothing special. Good to see vegan places though. I might go to one of their other branch that serves more authentic food.

A disappointing box (not even a cafe)

Not really a restaurant, more a rake away place with a few seats . Food isn’t bad but the atmosphere is well, less than a cafe. This is what I hate about vegan places. They make me feel like a 5 year old, begging to be allowed a seat and table to eat my food. If you can call it “hip” or “casual” you might excuse it. I just think it’s awful to sit at a communal table on stools and eat average burgers. Meh.

If you were in the neighborhood and needed to eat. Ok. But don’t travel out of your way to get here.

Pros: Ok vegan burgers, Ok fries

Cons: No seats - just stools, Fat communal tables with no privacy , Tiny and cramped

Still Love This Place

First ate here 2.5 years ago. It’s still as good as ever. Make sure to try the French Toast (without sour cream stuff).

Pros: All Vegan!, Friendly, Charging station for phones

Plastic cups and cutlery (>д )

The food is awesome, the burgers are heaven, but the fact that all cups, cutlery and straws are throw away plastic is more like (`^´)>

I wrote the owner an email suggesting washable dishes. They are happy about feedback, so if you care too, write them an email too😉 (e-mail address is written on their Facebook page under info)

Still five stars though⭐

Get the falafel burger and mac and cheese!

Great little burger place in a convenient location! I definitely recommend the mac and cheese! No complaints about the food - but giving it a 4 star since the price inhibits me from coming frequently.

Pros: Decent selection, very helpful staff.

Cons: Very pricey (like all Ain Soph locations)

Great staff!

Western style vegan food. Everything I had was really good, but the soup and dessert were amazing, definitely try the tiramisu!! They have other stores w/different menus. All staff speaks english and is absolutely lovely!! They even recommend other veggie spots in Tokyo. It's a bit more expensive than other places, but worth it!

Pros: All vegan, Great staff, Good desserts

Cons: Some things are a bit more expensive

Cozy and Delicious food

I found out about this place on Google first as one of the top vegetarian food restaurants and I had to make a sincere (personal) effort to reach here with my SO. And all I can say is we were well rewarded. The place is cozy with a kind staff and their Falafal burger was off-the-charts tasty! Since that day, I have been wanting to visiting this place again for having that delicious burger!

Pros: Taste, Fast Speed, Multiple Vegetarian Options

Cons: Location (had to walk quite a lot)

Delicious but quite expensive!

I visited last summer, and ordered a vegan burrito and some vegan ice cream! The food was delicious and the service was quite fast.
The one downside was that the food was quite expensive and cost around 1200 yen. Despite this I would probably go back and eat here if I visit Tokyo again!

Best vegan food I’ve had in my life

Definitely the best vegan mac&cheese I’ve had so far in my life; I’m craving it as we speak. The cheeseburger was also to die for. For dessert we had the caramel pudding and it was delicious.

Pros: Vegan, Best vegan mac and cheese, Lovely staff

Cons: Small / few seats , Very busy / popular

Nothing special

decent Mac & cheese. that aside, small quantity, slightly flat & oily burger patties but decent taste (the most recommended one). Burrito just ok too, & definitely overpriced. Nothing special.

Limited seats: 1 table for 8, ~ 5 indiv seats

Pros: More than edible

Cons: Overpriced (small portions), Limited seats, Average taste

Good junk food

I got a chicken style burger, fries and ginger beer and my partner got the cheese burger also with fries. We both enjoyed the food, it was quick, tasted nice and was a welcome change from temple food & vegan ramen which we had been having most days in and around Tokyo. We went to the sister cafe in Kyoto and I preferred that they had a wider range of foods to choose from in that one.

Pros: Vegan burgers in Tokyo

Mushy burgers!

Apparently everyone loves this place but I don’t understand how you can call something a burger when it’s mushy and not meaty at all. Call it a mushroom or bean burger please! So, I’m a nut shell, steer clear of the mushy burger.

The chicken sandwich is a little better but not much flavor. The best thing on the menu is the burrito bowl with pieces of veggie chicken.

Expect to spend about ¥1,000 or about 10 bucks for a burger with no sides. You’re gonna be hungry still after that burger because it’s so small, so make sure you get a side. The soup is usually something not so appealing, so probably best to avoid that too.

Veganism isn’t going to go mainstream in Japan with prices this high and lackluster food. Try it out if you must, obviously the reviews here say I’m probably wrong.

Pros: Vegan food

Cons: Expensive, Small portions, Not the best burgers

Best burger!

Amazing junk food in a cute little spot. The cheese burger was phenomenal and the chilli fries were so great. They also serve beer. It was busy at dinner but we managed to get a spot.

Pros: Best cheese burger I've had

Cons: Can be tricky to get a spot
