Super tasty authentic vegan ramen.

The restaurant is specialized in pork ramen, however they have a vegan menu with great options to choose from. You order from a tablet with an English menu available. The buttons are still in Japanese, but with Google translate you can take a picture and translate it directly.

I ordered the tonkotsu ramen and was pleasantly surprised. It had a creamy texture with spicy, savory flavor. It's quite a bit creamy though, so if that's not your cup of tea, you should probably try another one. I also ordered the vegan gyozas and they were good too. Nothing spectacular but tasty nevertheless.

In general, I think it's a great option if you're at Osaka station and get hungry.

Pros: Great flavor, Fast service, Different options

Great vegan Ramen directly in the station

One floor below the shinkansen gates. Have a close look on the floor map because it can be confusing (numbers are used more than once in different colours). Ordering is done via tablet. Has an English menu, but the buttons to navigate the menu are not translated. We got a bit help from a very helpful staff member to place the order. For a place directly inside the station surprisingly great!

Pros: Great Ramen , Very helpful staff

Cons: English translation for dishes only (see above)

Amazing ramen

I’m generally not a fan of vegan tonkatsu ramen but I have this one a try and it was one of the best ramens I’ve had. Must try. I also had the vegan gyoza and they were very good too.

Honest opinion not my favourite but convenient

I ordered the gyozas and the tonkotsu ramen. I liked the gyozas but the ramen I didn’t like the flavour was a bit strange. And some black seasonings that I couldn’t figure out what it was made it look like mold and it freaked me out(maybe it just wasn’t for my taste buds) also thought it had to much oil and the noodles were to thick for my liking (it looked like spaghetti 🤔). Maybe next time I will try the miso ramen instead. Overall it was ok it was fast and convenient. I would try it if you are at the station. but I wouldn’t go all the way there just to try it since I have had better vegan ramen

Great ramen

Easy enough to find. Just head for the Central Exit from the shinkansen gates. When you get to the actual exit (leaving the building - one level down from the station gates, but one level up from the street) head in to the Arde plaza and go straight to the far end, then turn left. It's Shop 7 on the maps.

I got a bowl of ramen and a serve of gyoza. I wouldn't bother ordering the gyoza again, they were a bit bland, but the ramen was great and I'll probably return for another bowl before I leave Osaka!

Definitely open and worth a visit!

Best vegan option at Shin-Osaka Station as far as I know (two visits so far). It is located on the second floor (2F) in the 'arde' shopping area. One level under the floor were you leave the JR/shinkansen area. It is not located between the gates so you do not need a ticket to come here.

Very authentic place with friendly staff and allthough they are not completely vegan they put a lot of effort in making vegans happy and discover some great ramen. You can order digitally via tablet were you can set the language to english. You will find the vegan stuff in an extra menu point where you can find that everything is plant-based and they try avoiding cross contamination. You can even have your food on extra disposable tableware if you are afraid.

They offer tonkotsu style ramen, miso ramen and side dishes like vegetable gyoza. I chose the tonkotsu style ramen a bit spicier (you can set a level for your self) and vegan gyoza. Everything tasted super yummy especially the ramen and the faux meat.

Clear recommendation for a great and filling meal at Shin Osaka Station!

Pros: Friendly staff., Clear labeled vegan options., Card payment.

Best vegan ramen I've had in Japan!

Great place, had the Tonkatsu ramen which was delicious if a bit oily for my taste. Very much still open!

Not there anymore

This ramen shop closed and the new shop there does have no vegan options at all. Even the green onion ramen are with pork and chicken broth

Are you sure, you were at the correct place? There are at least 3 Ramen restaurants on the floor and the floor map is pretty confusing. We ended up at the wrong place at first as well and found the place after checking the floor map again.

Vegan ramen

The restaurant is located on the second floor of the arde shopping center at the Shin-Osaka station, one floor below ground level. It is accessible without going through the ticket gates, we took the escalator down at the entrance of the station.

They have a few vegan ramen options and more are coming. You order from a tablet at your table. The ramen was reasonably priced and tasted good. Would visit again if I was looking for food at the station.

Pros: A couple of vegan options, On the cheaper side

Cons: Hard to find

A mystery: The restaurant is not listed on the station map and we couldn’t find it on October 10, 2024. Google has a note that it’s permanently closed. I bought a soy garden burger from Freshburger instead. Not many veggie/vegan options at Shin Osaka station

We found it today and it's definitely still open as of 13 Oct 2024. It's on the '2F' floor in the 'Arde!' food area. To get here, take the escalator downstairs following signs for 'Central Exit'. Turn left at the bottom of the escalator then left again once in the food area. It can be confusing to find, as this is a below ground floor, even though it is labeled as 'second floor'.

Tasty, quick easy vegan ramen

Went twice, it was just so easy and tasty! The first time I did a takeaway away as suggested in another review and definitely recommend if you're staying close, I enjoyed it in my hotel room and it travelled really well! Second time I sat in which was also my first experience of ordering through the screen and it was nice and easy, it takes a little longer for the vegan ramen to come out but totally worth it. The ramen is nice, I'd recommend adding an additional slice of their seitan type meat, and the vegan gyozas are amazing! It's on the second floor so you need to go down one if you are on the third floor for the bullet trains!

Pros: Tasty and Easy, Clearly marked vegan, The veg gyozas 😍

Cons: Difficult to find using Google

ohhh my god

we had the vegan tonkotsu ramen & the vegan miso ramen. they were so delicious! we took them for takeaway, because we had had a long day & our apartment is near the station - they were packed very well & secure. the noodles were seperate from the broth, so you can add them in once you‘re ready to eat. GOD, it was so good. honestly one of the best ramens i have ever had.
store was surprisingly easy to find as well! we are definitely thinking about having them again!

Pros: flavour, securely packed for takeaway, noodles

Tasty!

Tried the Tonkotsu Ramen and Miso Ramen which were both very good!

We opted for takeaway since we were short on time and the staff were helpful over the phone and had the order prepped and ready to go when we arrived.

The Miso Ramen was thicker than the Tonkotsu but they both had lovely thick, chewy noodles.

Viscosity was good 👍

Pros: Filling , Tasty , Not too expensive

It took a while to find the place, but when I did I got the spicy miso vegan ramen to go. It was very fast, and the ramen is very delicious.

纯素酱汤拉面太美味了,汤汁浓香,加上豆芽和玉米粒和素肉,感谢做出如此美好的纯素拉面,且不含五辛

我喜欢不含五辛和任何动物性成分的纯净素味増拉面,非常好!
另外的vegan拉面和饺子可惜含有大蒜,希望也能提供纯素版选择,谢谢!

Nice miso ramen

We had the miso and tonkatsu ramen dishes. The miso was really good! Tonkatsu ramen was a bit heavy but if you’re into meat-like flavours try that one! You order from a tablet and it said that vegan gyozas are coming soon!

It is located on the 2nd floor next to some other restaurants. No need to buy a platform ticket.

Je recommande vivement 👌🏽👌🏽

Great Choice

We’ve gone twice, and tried the miso and pika ramen. The miso is thick, rich and has a strong tahini flavour. The pika is lighter and made with soy milk. Both are delicious. The char sui is yummy. I recommend getting 3 pieces. Level 3 spicy isn’t very spicy.

Everything is clearly labeled ramen, and it looks like they will have vegan gyoza, another kind of ramen and something else “coming soon” according to the menu.

Pros: Great flavours, Fast service, Clear labeling

Cons: Tight spot

Tasty ramen, large portions

There are currently 2 types of ramen, a spicy one and a plain one. You can also choose an option to have more vegan tonkatsu. Portions were really large, the ramen were both really good, lots of flavor.
You order the food with a tablet, vegan food is clearly labelled but not everything is in english so prepare yourself to need to translate.
Service was rather quick.
It was not very expensive (around 1600¥).

Pros: Portion size, Flavor

Cons: Ordering with the tablet was not easy

Nice ramen in the station

We didn’t have to wait on arrival and it has a few things soon to be added. I got the non spicy one. The soy meat was pretty good for Japan but only one bit which was a shame. Creamy broth with a hint of sesame. One of the nicest I’ve had so far. Reasonable price considering the location. The tablets ordered on have English

Pros: The taste, Easy location , English option

Cons: Not much topping

I would rate 5 stars if I could!

Since this is not a full vegan restaurant, I couldn’t give it a 5 - but it deserves it! Three vegan ramen options - delicious! Also they are expanding on the vegan menu. Adding a picture of the options coming soon!

Quick Service, Delicious Ramen

Tiny Spot in the Shin-Osaka Station, tucked away on the 2nd Floor. Traditional joint that has just begun serving vegan ramen. 3 different types of ramen to choose from. Delectable Ramen. Spicy & perfectly balanced. Staff does not speak English. Ordering done via tablets.

Pros: Ramen, Service, Portion size

Yummy but bad service

The food was pretty good. They just had vegan tonkatsu and vegan miso ramen available at the moment. Gyoza and other dishes are coming soon.
I had the tonkatsu ramen and it was pretty good. The broth was really nice and the noodles were a little thick. The vegan tonkatsu kind of just tasted like cooked vegan ham and they only give you one thin slice. The ramen cost 1,580 yen which was a bit more expensive than the non vegan options.
The service wasn’t very good. The server was short with us and sat 3 of us on a table with a divider in the middle which was annoying because normal tables were free.

Pros: Filling and yummy, Order off tablet

Cons: Hard to read menu, Bad service
