Ramen FTW

I had a chance to visit this place only once during my short stay in Tokyo but I wish I could return to it again. The reason for that is amazingly delicious ramen that I had there. It was part of lunch menu and the type was simply "shoyu ramen" but it was super tasty and for a reasonable 1000yen price. Definitely recommended!

Pros: Tasty, 100% vegan, Cosy

Amazing burgers!

The burgers here are so, so good, and very reasonably priced! You can get them as part of a set with salad or fried potato. They also have a lot of different smoothies that are cheaper than other vegan/veg friendly restaurants (but just as delicious!)

If you want to be spoiled for choice, this is the place! Quite a diverse menu and excellent service. Had their Crazy Hot “Chicken” Burger & Fries and Gyoza. Every bite was a party!

Pros: Lots to choose from , Excellent quality & taste, Friendly & prompt service

Cons: None really but only seats about 20

Great vibe, good food, friendly staff

Love the feel of this place and the taste of their pina coladas! Food was fresh and tasty and the walls are covered in surf boards and sand collections. Nice park right nearby for walks after meals!

Best vegan ramen

The restaurant has tons of various vegan dishes. I wanted to try all of them! The red hot Don-don ramen was very delishious and just the right amount of hot. The owners are friendly and gave us good service. Will definitely come back :)!

Pros: Lots of dishes , Large variety, Good service

Cons: Small place

Fantastic find

Incredible quality of the food!
I was initially unconvinced by the location (slightly far from me) and decor (a bit cramped) but the food changed all of that.

We had Dan Dan Ramen and Squash Curry, plus a few appetizers (gyoza..) and they were all terrific!

Would love to come back!

Pros: All of it

Great food, almost too much choice!

Took so long to decide as I wanted everything! Went for the garlic and herb chicken, taco rice bowl and Thai rice. All was fantastic and took take-out home for my partner. Soy chai latte was spot on and rum and raisin ice cream finished it all off nicely

So hard to decide!!

Had lunch here today, and I’m so glad I’ve found this place!! The menu is huge and I had trouble deciding what to order. I went with the Buddha Bowl, which was really good and had the most amazing hummus on it. Also enjoyed their Mango & Coconut Cake with Chai tea. Will be back for sure!!

Pros: So many delicious-looking options , Friendly owners , Innovative Menu

Excellent

So happy I went here, not only was it some of the best vegan food but the first proper meal in a few days as its so hard finding food just walking through the street. Such a cute little cafe, lovely friendly owners! Definitely recommend

Pros: Delicious, cheap, lovely staff

Cons: A little bit out of the way, but worth it

Possibly the best vegan food in Tokyo

I've travelled to Japan three times now and I always struggle the most in Tokyo to find somewhere that really blows my mind. This restaurant is it. The menu is HUGE, the food is astounding considering the size of the kitchen and it's just two people working. I had the loco moco followed by rum and raisin ice cream. The loco moco I cannot recommend enough. Avocado as a vegan substitute for egg is great, the hamburger is full of flavour and it is surrounded by a fresh salad.

Get off the beaten track and check this place out. There's also a lovely park to hang out in nearby!

For you & a friend!

Like other reviewers, I was impressed by the choices on the menu. The curry I had was delicious and I would definitely return to try more. While I was there, another customer had her small lap dog with her. It was nice to see a cafe that you could stop at if you happened to be walking your dog towards Setagaya Park nearby. It’s probably not a common occurrence, but it’s worth noting that well-behaved small dogs are welcome.

Cute place, nice service

... but I got unlucky with the day: the kitchen was closed for some reason. They only had precooked bento boxes. I tried two rice based soy chicken ones, very nice for amateurs of mock meats.
I'll have to visit again for the burgers and the sweets!

Pros: Cute

Huge menu, big flavours

It’s impossible to imagine how all these dishes come out of a tiny kitchen with a single chef, but the menu is massive, the quality never dips, and it’s excellent value. As a plus: the couple who run it are the friendliest people. Worth the effort.

Pros: The burgers, the spicy tempeh , The ume-shiso dishes

Extensive menu!!!

This place was a little out of the way for us but I’m so happy we went. The menu is unimaginably extensive. So. Many. Options. We had a hard time making our choice. Sometimes, when places have such big menus, I can be wary that they might be skimping on quality but this was not the case. The service was fast and our meal was delicious. We ordered Fish and Chips (so, so good!), Indonesia pork bowl, Thai Coconut Fried Rice and Fried Spring Rolls. Everything we received was was wonderful. Highly recommended.

Pros: Extensive menu , Fast service , Hot wine!

Cons: Slightly inconvenient location (went by bus)

Pros: Big menu, Healthy and fresh, Amazing faux-meat

Cons: Closed Tuesday & Wednesday - check website!

Vegan burguers and good vibes

Super nice place to have one of the tastiest vegan burguers we ate in a whole month japan travel(garlic & herb 'chicken').
Even if you're not close it worth the bus/metro ride to enjoy it.
Cool place, nice owners and perfect meals, just stop reading and go for it!

Pros: Lovely ambient, slowlife experience and tasty food

Oishī!

Really yummy, entirely vegan and organic restaurant, lots of choice; Western and Asian favourites with a Polynesian twang. Best spring rolls I've ever had and the freshest lemonade - perfect on a hot summers day! The staff are really warm and welcoming. Shared two mains, two starters and finished with a couple scoops of ice-cream which came to ¥2,500 each - excellent value for money, would've happily paid more and would go again next time I'm in Tokyo :)

Pros: Entirely Vegan and Organic, English Menu, Great Value

Cons: There aren't more of them

LOVE this place

English below👇世田谷の三軒茶屋にあるヴィーガンレストラン『オルオルカフェ』に行きました。

ハワイのリラックスした雰囲気漂う店内。カウンターにはアニマルライツの冊子が並んでいます。

今回注文したのは“オルオルカフェオリジナルのロコモコの大盛り”と“チョコレートブラウニー”です。

ロコモコは色とりどりの野菜にヴィーガンハンバーグが埋もれた丼物で食べ応えがあり、中でもスライスアボカドの存在感は抜群で、あっという間に満腹になりました。

デザートにはブラウニー。
添えられたソイ生クリームとの相性はバッチリで最後まで美味しく頂きました。

お店そのものは小さめですが、スタッフの対応も素晴らしく、また行きたくなるお店です。
機会があれば是非足を運んでみてください。#4AJEats

Olu’ Olu Cafe is a charming little restaurant close to Setagaya Park in Tokyo (closest stations: Sangenjaya or Ohashi-Ikejiri). Everything on the menu is vegan!

I had the Garlic & Herb Chicken Sandwich with fries. It tasted like a fresher, healthier versions of the fast-food chicken flesh sandwiches I used to eat in a previous life. We really can have it all! My partner had the Locomoco and he was very pleased with it.

If chocolate’s your thing, the Brownie is a must-order. It was moist and delicious 🤤

Olu’ Olu’ is a must-visit for anyone who likes food. My only complaint is that there isn’t one in Yokohama. 😆

Pros: Amazing food, Huge variety of selections , Everything is vegan!

Cons: The place is a little small

my new favorite in Tokyo

Everything we had was great. The menu selection is big and it seems like they could make anything good. The ramen was especially delicious. We're going back for dessert.

Price was very reasonable ($42 for two drinks, two appetizers, two main courses).
