Great food

Delicious food. I had the rice bowl with vegetable gyozas, soy meat, vegan cheese, and a small salad. They also have vegan ice cream on the menu.
Service is fast and friendly.
You need to enter the station with a ticket or IC card to reach the restaurant (even if you're not boarding a train) but tickets are inexpensive.
Enter Ueno station through Park Gate (from Ueno Park), walk straight ahead and you'll soon see platform 8 to your right. The restaurant is next to it.

Trésor gastronomique vegan de Tokyo

Meilleur restaurant Vegan dans lequel j'ai mangé à Tokyo. Les tantanmen étaient excellentes, j'y retournerais avec grand plaisir.

Best ramen I tried in Tokyo

Finding this spot was a bit of an adventure, but absolutely worth it. I’d recommend asking locals for directions. There was a long line, and I waited about 15-20 minutes to get seated, but once I ordered, the service was quick. The ramen was incredibly rich—a true flavor bomb—and the gyozas were just as amazing. Food was a 10/10! I’d definitely come back or try their other locations.

Oh forgot to mention add the peanut butter to the ramen! 🤤

Good vegan food quaranteed

After having visited the other branch at Tokyo Station, I prefer it to Ueno, but the food was the same. (Tokyo Station felt like it had a bigger menu, but perhaps that is the illusion of a tablet vs. confusingly laid out printed menu.

Hard to find if you enter the Ueno station in the "wrong" place, but worth the search and wait at the door if it's busy.

(It says "Ecute Ueno", which the information boards at the station show - but not How To Get There For Dummies; look to enter through "Park Gate", that is your best bet to not get lost in the maze since I could see it from the restaurant.)

Pros: Food tasted amazing

Cons: Cluttered menu

Very good ramens and gyozas

Very convenient location in the station, sometimes you will need to wait outside, but never a very long time.
There is always a seasonal ramen, on three Tan-Tan (classic, black/gold sesame), a bowl, delicious gyozas, vegan ice creams include a matcha one.

Pros: Choice, Location

Rice bowl ftw

I dream of this rice bowl when I am home in the USA. The vibe is cozy. The gyoza is tasty. I would wear a T’s Tantan tshirt.

Nice

I think this was nice, but honestly not anything special.
Getting the golden sesame with the added peanut butter is what saved the broth. I tried it prior it mixing and found it lacklustre.
The noodles were also pretty mushy.
Does not contain a protein which really disappointed me from a vegan restaurant!

Better spots in Tokyo (few I’ve reviewed on here) for a rich tantanmen style or a cleaner, clear broth ramen.

The gyoza was good though! Very flavourful.

Pros: Nice staff

Cons: Average tasting broth , Mushy noodles , No protein

worth the hassle

i got the white sesame ramen and it was really good! i thought the price was great, too. it can be tricky to find depending on where you are in ueno station. i recommend using the ueno park entrance because it’s a straight shot - just between platforms 8 and 9. i’d go again!

Very good

Everything’s vegan. The golden sesame ramen is a little spicy but very delicious. Gyozas 10/10: crispy, not too sticky (easy to separate) and tasty filling.

Pros: Gyoza, Ramen

Tastiest ramen in Tokyo

We came here for lunch today. Note, you need to enter the JR train station. We waited outside as they organised a table for us. I loved it when they asked if I had any allergies, they yelled out the order. I ordered the golden sesame ramen with 3 gyoza. The gyoza was nicely cooked and I enjoyed the filling. But the ramen was on another level of delicious. The sesame gave it that extra bit of flavour adding to the already delicious broth. Good serving size, great price. My partner enjoyed the massaman curry.

Highly recommend.

Lovely cafe, good food

I picked the Japanese ramen, which didn't taste like other ramen I've had. There were chickpeas in it and the broth was a bit lemon-y. It was nice but not as good as other ramen I've had in Japan

Pros: Lovely staff, So much choice!

Cons: Average taste

Ganz toll

Toller Laden. Das Essen war sehr lecker das Personal freundlich. Die Auswahl ist auch ganz okay und man viel kombinieren.
Das Restaurant ist nur etwas schwer zu finden. Am einfachsten ist es, wenn man vom Nordwest Eingang aus dem Park kommend in den Bahnhof geht. Man muss durch die Ticket Station durch und dann ist es direkt neben dem Aufgang zu Gleis 8.

Pros: Lecker, Freundlich , Schnell

Cons: Hinter er Ticket Station , Etwas schwer zu finden

Great bowl of ramen - interesting flavours

I've been back three times: really high quality ramem that hits the spot. Great gyouza and char sui too.

Anywhere else in the world, I would have given 5 stars, but Tokyo just has such a high standard for vegan food!

Delicious Ramen

Very tasty sesame ramen with soy meat and different veggies. You can order gyozas as a side which are good but not extraordinary. The restaurant is fully vegan

Amaaaaaaazing

Located inside the Ueno train station. You have to purchase an entry pass into the train station (buy it from the same machines you would for a regular train ticket). This allows you into the area where all the shops and restaurants are.

I got a rice bowl with fake chicken, some gyozas and vegan cheese. My partner got a ramen bowl. Both were amazing. However, I gotta say that the rice bowl was surprisingly the star - the fake chicken and fake cheese combo was SOO good.

Pros: Fast, Good pricing, Absolutely delicious

Cons: Have to purchase eticket to get inside train stati, Small and crowded inside
