Excellent, flavorful vegan ramen options

My fiancée and I were a little doubtful at the first reports, but I’m happy to say that this place really knocked it out of the park with their vegan options! Intense broth flavor, tasty vegan chashu, great noodles!

Pros: English menu w/ easy-to-understand options, Really nice, accommodating staff, Roomy for a ramen place in Tokyo

Cons: Packed a little tight for the COVID-era

Amazing vegan ramen!

This place was a find and a total lifesaver during my last trip to Tokyo. The ramen is delicious, portion sizes are big and it's super affordable! Can't wait to go back there eventually.

Multiple vegan ramen options

The spicy ramen was very spicy and very delicious. It's nice to have options. Also the cafe is in a nice location and you can watch people walking in harajuku from there.

Pros: Several vegan options on the 2nd floor, Prices are very reasonable, 2nd floor is not usually crowded

Vegan Ramen!!!!

Been waiting to go here for awhile and finally went today. They had three different vegan ramen options including garlic and shoyu. They were each great but the shoyu was my favorite as it had a stronger umami taste!! I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you get the chance!!

Pros: Vegan options, Big portions, Cheap

Amazing ramen and great staff!

The yuzu ramen was delicious and the guy who served us was really nice. The vegan ramen is clearly displayed, so there is no room for mistake.

Kyushu Jangara

Kyushu Jangara place got on my "ramen-dar" when I heard they offer two vegan ramen options. This location was pretty easy to find (unlike most restaurants in Tokyo) and the staff were very friendly.

While I appreciated the vegan ramen option, I felt like their's still needs some work. It just didn't have a lot of flavor and was really unmemorable. There are so many other vegan ramen options in Tokyo that are much better. I'd eat here again if I'm in a pinch or with someone else who wants to eat at this chain, but I won't be a regular.

Great ramen, relaxed atmosphere

We were staying nearby and went here a couple of times. Both vegan ramen were great, with loads of condiments to spice it up. Welcoming atmosphere, and they were patient with my bad Japanese.

Pros: Both vegan options are delicious.

Cons: Limited range.

Vegan Soy Ramen AMAZING

It's a very busy spot in Harajuku so warning there might be a line to get it. Worth it! I chose the soy based broth because I personally don't like salt based broths in general. This ramen was delicious. And price was fair. If you eat the seaweed, the taste will be "fishy" but duh... Seaweed. I only had one piece of seaweed so I only had one "fishy" spoonful of ramen.

I also personally added garlic into my broth cuz I'm a garlic fiend

Pros: 2 different broth type of vegan soups. AFFORDABLE, You can add more noodles and other vegan toppings, English menu available so you just have to point

Cons: May be a long wait depending on your luck, Not a vegan restaurant, just has vegan options, Bowl size could be bigger

Didn't like the ramen, good price

Personally, I didn't like the soy ramen since it had some aftertaste.
Maybe an exception, I don't know.
Nice service, not expensive at all.

Pros: Not expensive

Yum!!

English below👇 原宿にある【九州じゃんがらラーメン】へ行ってきました。
この店には、評判の良いヴィーガンラーメンがあるので、以前から気になっていました。
店内は2階にあり、全てカウンターです。壁一面にポスターや張り紙が沢山貼られていて、とても賑やかでした。

今回食べたのは『和風ゆず塩ビーガンらぁめん(ベジチャーシュー増し)』に海苔をトッピングで付けました。
注文は先払いで、入り口にある支払い専用のカウンターで済ませます。

注文から10分ほどで注文したものが出来上がりました。早すぎず遅すぎずの丁度いいタイミングです。

ゆずの香りが爽やかなスープでとても美味しかったです。
ベジチャーシューは美味しかったですが、見た目、味、食感、全てにおいてチャーシューではなく、湯葉をチャーシューっぽく固めたものでした。【チャーシュー風湯葉】の様なネーミングの方が自然だと思います。

麺は透明感のある少し弾力のあるもので、ラーメンらしさはあまりありませんでしたが、美味しかったです。

数少ない美味しいヴィーガンのラーメンです!
機会があれば是非お試し下さい!

A friend of ours told us that Kyūshū Jangara Ramen has the best vegan ramen. Being huge fans of ramen, we headed to the Harajuku location to try it for ourselves.

Ordering was easy with the friendly staff, and before we knew it, we had a steamy bowl of “Japanese vegan salt ramen.” It was delicious. The soup was rich and oily (in a good way), there were lots of toppings, and the noodles were good too.

Our only quibble was that the ramen claimed to have “vegan pork” in it, but really it was just yuba. There’s nothing at all wrong with yuba, but it’d be best if the menu was honest, to avoid disappointment.

Is this the best vegan ramen? No. In our humble opinion, that honor is still held by Ryū Shanghai, inside the Yokohama Ramen Museum. But this is still very, very good, and if they had a shop in Yokohama, we’d be going there a lot.

Fishy

Despite all the claims, my broth tasted quite fishy. I had ordered the veggie ramen with soy sauce (the other option is salt sauce). The ramen itself tasted pretty average, I've had better at at least 5 different places. The staff was also surprisingly very cold to me, but very warm to locals at the same time. I noticed that the same behavior was meted out to another non-local patron. Shameful. Avoid as far as possible.

Fast and tasty ramen

Tried a few veggie ramens in Tokyo and this one was delicious! The service was fast, the staff were friendly and the ramen tasted great. Garlic purée at the table!
