Nice vegetable curry - Edit
Choose from the vegetarian menu and there’s a vegan curry base which you can add various vegetables to. I saw on some other reviews soy cutlets were available but this didn’t seem to be the case at this branch. Basic but gets the job done!

Delicious vegan Japanese curry! - Edit
Visited on September 26, 2023. It’s not a Japan trip unless you eat at CoCo a few times. CoCo has been a memorable part of all my Japan trips and this time was no exception! The food is just that good 😋 Make sure you’re looking at the vegetarian section of the menu - these curries are vegan as well! I added extra mushrooms to my meal. The curry had rich flavours, aromatic spices, and a bit of sweetness.
Read moreCoCo is a chain that’s found throughout Japan, but just be wary that not all locations have vegetarian curry!

Hearty and Affordable! - Edit
Delish curry sauce with vegetables came with potatoes, carrot and beans. Nice to have a vegan option that doesn’t come with soy meat automatically! Great option for a cheap lunch. Big portion!

Can’t go wrong with Coco Ichibanya if you are craving for Japanese Kare. Love how you can customize the options and they have accessible branches in various locations. Always order the veggie Kare with soy meat. Filling and delicious every time.

CoCo Ichibanya - Edit
Apparently this is a famous place (according to my coworker)...I had no idea, but I see why, because it's very good.
Read moreWe ordered Coco's delivery for lunch one day and it was delicious. I'm not sure I could have navigated the menu well without my Japanese coworkers, but they were sure to verify and confirm the vegetable curry was vegan. There's not many options to add to this dish, but I got a side of garlic with the curry. So essentially, the dish was comprised of a dark curry sauce, my side of garlic, and rice. Just mix it all together and it will be pretty tasty. I would definitely each lunch here again (as long as I can figure out how to order the vegan item)!

Filling vegan curry - Edit
I'm not a fan of Japanese curry but went for a try based on reviews. I followed the advice of other reviewers and just went for the vegetarian menu, which is vegan with 6 options.
Read moreRegular size of rice was plenty. Upping the spice level made it nicely spicy but not too much.
Overall good hearty food, fast and cheap. Will come back.
Probably feels good in winter.
Pros: 6 good vegan options , Filling!, Cheap: ¥750 yen each

Great tasting vegan curry (Separate vegan menu!) 🌱 - Edit
Read the Vegan Tokyo Guide on https://itravelforveganfood.com/vegan-tokyo-guide/
Read moreCoco Ichibanya is a big curry chain in Japan. It’s not vegan or vegetarian, but they have some vegan options available in selected stores.
The curry is cooked separately for each dish, but it seems to use the same oil to deep fry things with other non vegan food.
The curry is very flavorful, and you can choose whether you want it spicy (I chose the mild one). For this dish, the eggplant is deep fried and the tomato sauce comes in a separate bowl.
For less than 1000 yen in Tokyo, it’s a good meal that doesn’t break the bank.
Pros: Delicious curry, Cheap, Customizable spiciness

Separate vegetarian menu!! - Edit
I would give this place 5 stars if the app allowed me to! This is one of the best restaurants with vegetarian options in Tokyo. They have a pretty good selection of vegetarian curries on an entirely separate vegetarian menu. The portions are also very large and very filling. I will definitely be coming here again :)
Read morePros: Separate vegetarian menu, cozy ambiance
Cons: Limited seating available in the restaurant

Great for vegetarians! - Edit
CoCo has a separate menu for vegetarians (and a menu in English)! It made me so happy to see multiple curry options for me to choose from, as well as getting to choose how spicy it is from their spice chart. Open late which is great for me. The food it’s self was really good and they are big portion sizes!
Read morePros: vegetarian menu, nice employees , open late
Cons: limited space

Great Easy Option - Edit
Very clearly marked menu. Staff was very helpful. They speak English, though obviously it's easier if you know Japanese. Probably the closest option to shibuya station. Tastes delicious, but no mock meat.
Read morePros: clearly marked menu , cheap , close to station
Cons: no proteins (but veggie options plentiful)
