Solid ramen

Pretty good ramen but not the best I've had. It's a little pricey too for the portion size. The dessert was really tiny given the high price as well.

Beautiful interior, amazing food and service

This place is great! The only bad part is trying to figure out what to get because there are so many great options. Highly recommended!

Pros: Amazing vegan ramen, Great, friendly, fast service, Beautiful interior

Delicious and yes it's all vegan now!

They opened up vegetarian but have since become fully vegan from the appetizers, to the entrees, to the dessert! I encourage people to support them for listening to feedback and moving in the right direction.

As for the food - the Tonkotsu ramen was delicious and I'm excited to try their other ramens in the future. I shared the vrooklyn gyoza and the chocolate mousse - also very good.

While the quality is great, the prices are quite a bit higher than what I normally pay for vegan ramen at other places in the city.

Delicious ramen!

Really loved Ippudo V! Ate dinner on a rainy Sunday night—it was practically empty possibly because of the time of day and also the rain (which made for perfect ramen weather). Super kind waitstaff!

I loved the Plan-ton Tonkutsu vegan ramen! My friend ordered the Hakuna Matata Spicy Tsuke Men dish (carrot fettuccine noodles with broth, natto). Nato is not for the faint of heart, and certainly an acquired taste because of the fermentation flavor. But my friend really enjoyed it mixed in with the broth!

The Vrooklyn Gyoza was delicious! The best fake pork I’ve had (and I’m pretty picky about fake meats).

Loved this place! It was pricey though. And the other person’s reviews about potential concerns that some of dishes aren’t fully vegan is troubling, although I didn’t run into that upon my first visit to Ippudo V.

Best Vegan Ramen in NYC

Dined here with my family, who all agreed this venue is a great addition to vegan food options in NYC. Menu now very clearly indicates what is vegan and what is vegetarian (all the ramens are vegan), and server was very knowledgeable about vegan, e.g. highlighting all the sauces that came with the vegan gyoza were also vegan. Highlights: the gyoza, the Plan-to and the Shojin ramens, and the chocolate mousse which was amazingly good and relatively light. Prices are not cheap, but also in line with top-notch ramen restaurants in the City. The space is also very nice, with a rotating selection of photo books to peruse, and a view of Brooklyn from the garage-door style windows. Also had a delicious oatmilk iced matcha latte. Good selection of sake as well. Highly recommended!

Pros: Perfectly cooked ramen noodles, Clear indications of vegan vs. vegetarian, Chocolate mousse!

Cons: All good!

Pretty good

Broth was very flavorful, a bit too rich for me. The soy meat was delicious, but there wasn’t much of it. Too much cabbage in my opinion.
