5☆ really tasty ramen and nice atmosphere

The ramen tasted delicious, the broth was really flavourful. We added spring onion and fried garlic (However, I didn't know that there were spices and garlic paste at every table. I think the garlic paste is sufficient).

The atmosphere in the restaurant was nice, even if we had a really small table and small chairs i felt comfortable. Music was also nice (Queen!^^) and Service was friendly.

Pros: Delicious Ramen, Affordable, Nice atmosphere

Cons: Just one Option (+ addition Soymeat), Non-veg Restaurant

Yes

Really tasty and filling ramen, didn't cheap out on toppings, there are extra condiments at each seat (try the hot pickled greens! yum). Only one vegan ramen option, but clearly labeled, and there are some extra toppings available. We got there around 12:30 and had to wait outside for ~25 minutes, but could already order outside and got our ramen a few minutes after we got a seat.

Pros: Delicious and filling ramen, Clearly labeled vegan , English menu

Cons: May have to wait outside during rush hour

Probably my favorite ramen in Tokyo😄

Very nice and friendly staff, menu in English, vegan ramen tastes great! You can order some extra noodles or veggies, but a regular portion is big enough.

Yay vegan ramen

I am far from a ramen connoisseur, but I really enjoyed this. The staff were extremely quick to identify us as tourists, and wasted no time in ensuring we were taken care of.
The broth was tasty, and the "meat" had a delicious grilled flavour.

Fast and delicious

Our ramen came super fast and it was so dang tasty! The broth was flavourful and not just a salty bomb. The soy meat was also great, the texture was nice and chewy but not tough. They also had vegan ramen cups you could take home - such a great idea! The staff was very friendly too and they have an entirely English menu if needed.

Pros: Fast, Flavourful

Really good ramen!

Went at 13:00 so had to queue outside however it moved quickly and service was quick once inside as well.

Lovely vegan food and would recommend stopping by as it was relatively cheap!

Clear vegan menu and they have menus in Japanese, English, Chinese.

Really nice vegan ramen. Only one option but choice to upgrade to have 3 pieces of the vegan ‘meat’. I would recommend the upgrade for an extra ¥200 as one piece was quite small.

Pros: Great food , Cheap , Friendly staff

Cons: A little busy at lunchtime but worth the wait

A very small place. Vegan ramen was very good. There was about a 20 minute line out front to get in, but worth the wait

Best vegan ramen in Japan!

They have a vegan ramen which you can even ask for an oriental version! Their soy meat is the best I’ve ever had in Japan! I went there many times in Japan, it’s a must for me.

Delicious vegan ramen!

Not too far from the main street, this ramen shop is great to get dinner at. There is usually a bit of a wait outside. They will come and give you a menu in advance and then take your order in the line. It's very small in there but it's cosy! The ramen is always great and it's nice to add extra flavourings to get it to my taste. Definitely go and give it a try. There is an English menu available and you can also add extras to your ramen.

Pros: Easy and quick ordering., English menu., Good food for a good price.

Perfect Experience!

Very, very authentic ramen shop in a tiny room, sitting at a tiny counter in front of the chef. We loved it! Everyone was super polite, especially with my little Japanese! The vegan ramen was incredible, so delicious! Highly recommend

Pros: Environment, Food, Price

Delicious vegan ramen!!

We were very hungry after a long stroll through akihabara, so we decided to come to this place for some ramen. We had to wait a little bit in line (because the restaurant is quite small), but the wait was well worth it. The food was so tasty and also very inexpensive. Highly recomended!

Pros: Super delicious ramen, Inexpensive for a good portion

Cons: Restaurant is quite small

Clearly labelled (and delicious) vegan ramen

There was quite a long queue when we arrived here but it moved quickly as most people didn't linger long in the restaurant.

We ordered the vegan ramen while we were still in the queue which meant that when we sat down we were served almost immediately. It had some fake meat on top and was really brilliant. We had lots of good ramen in Japan but this was up there with the best.

They also had some vegan cup noodles as well so we grabbed a couple of those on the way out

Pros: Bustling ramen restaurant, Tasty fake meat

Nice ramen, busy place

Their vegan ramen was the first vegan ramen I ever had in Japan in 2017. In the meantime, Kyushu Jangara Akiba (although I think that applies to every one of their branches) became quite popular, especially with tourists, so be prepared for waiting time.
After ca 30 minutes we were seated and soon got our vegan ramen at 1400¥. It's good! But don't expect a culinary enlightenment. To my disappointment, dlthey decided to change the type of tofu piece in the ramen. Back in 2017 and 2019, it was my favorite part of the dish, an amazing piece of seasoned tofu. Now, what they have is a soy meat alternative that IMO doesn't taste too great.
However, in the end still a great place to try really good vegan ramen in a variety of locations in Tokyo!

Great ramen

Loved the ramen! They have a clearly labeled vegan option which is delicious. The restaurant is very busy, but the line moves quick so don’t be too intimidated if there is a long queue.

Pros: Vegan option
