Limited selection for those who truly vegetarian - Edit
It seems all the ramen soups are cooked with garlic and onions. Therefore, there is not much left except for green salads and rice. At least they are honest and told which foods doesn't have them.

MUST EAT IN TOKYO - Edit
Do yourself a favor and give this place a try.
Read moreOne of my veg-friends recommended this to me while my sister was visiting and we ended up eating here for almost every meal in Tokyo. The ramen is so amazing and there are different combinations. Great flavors, quick and just amazing food.
Pros: AMAZING FOOD, Good Location
Cons: Only in Tokyo

super good ramen - Edit
It was the best ramen ever !!
Read moreThe service was quick and nice. The restaurant is small and not really easy to find.. but I suggest you to go there at least once ;)
My boyfriend took the black sesame ramen and I had a special one (I can't remember the name, it was on the special menu).
They were both super tasty.

great! - Edit
Very easy to find, you just follow the signs to keiyo and you will find it, if you don't have a platform ticket or Jr it's easy to fix just walk to yaesu south ticket and buy entrence ticket for just 140 yen. It's worth it! Amazing food! Very fresh and decent price. Will definitely go back!

A must try! Best vegan food in Tokyo. - Edit
Where do I start! This place is such an awesome little ramen joint. It's totally vegan and serves the most amazing ramen we've ever had. The golden sesame seed ramen is a must. There was a line to get in when we arrived, but well worth the wait (we only had to wait 5 or so minutes). The food tastes clean and isn't full of preservatives and all that other nasty stuff. Clean, yummy, good vegan food.

The only place we went in Tokyo - Edit
Before we came to Tokyo, we spent 11 days travelling through Japan-seeing at least a new city every day, and we covered the entire island of Kyushu. We came around Christmas/new years-and the dates we were in Tokyo for was January 1-4th-a date when apparently most of Japan takes a holiday. I meticulously went through the Happy Cow ratings, and found many restaurant/locales were closed for the holidays or hard to find (after days in Japan, we got tired of not finding the places) .
Read moreT's Tan Tan were closed for our first day, so on our second day we finally made it, and we loved it. We decided to try out all their ramen-and that just fitted in with out meal plan for Tokyo. Just having a 'easy' vegan place to eat felt like a luxury. The hours were wonderful, we had breakfast there at 8 am, and found they have a breakfast menu. I had the curry for 540yen, and a coffee for a extra 100 yen. My partner regularly ordered the large noodles (100 yen)-which means a double portion of noodle. If you're hungry, or not sure, just get the large noodles as it's a negligible cost, and well it's a seemingly bottomless bowl of vegan ramen.
All the ramens were good, from left to right, top to bottom on the menu, my favourite were: the second (black sesame), third (gold seseme), and fourth (sweet sour). Top favs were were 2 & 4. The gyoza are good, and worth trying once (the menu has sets that allow add-ons of gyoza, curry, or fried "meat" for a lower price, breakfast offers coffee/tea for a lower price).
They offer chili pepper to add to your ramen. The locale is very cosmopolitan, and while Japanese, you can hear a lot of continental English. It's also very busy, and you need to wait to be seated. They give a lot of very cold water.
So big pros: easy-to -find location in Tokyo, that's quite accessible. Hours. Price (while we don't mind spending 3000 yen on food---our eyes do water after seeing bills for 7000 and over. It's hard to see that at T's, and just nice to feel like one can eat out without worrying). I worked for years in a Japanese kitchen, so I know the cuisine inside-out. Ramen, for me is something special-but one thing I must resort to making at home. I liked this place for the way they make new flavours that I did not use in ramen, it's 100% vegan, so no need to make a risk. I just find the chance for vegan ramen so rare and special, it needs to be tried in full-so we did for breakfast lunch and diner-and we also noticed some repeat customers there.
Pros: Very yummy and 100% vegan, Very good price and quality and quantity ratio, Long Hours and perfect location
Cons: In ticketed section of station, was closed on new years day (according to website), not in many other cities.

Amazing! - Edit
Great restaurant! We were in Tokyo for 9 days and managed to come here twice because it was so good. Its a bit hard to find the first time but just ask the information desk in the station. The restaurant is IN Tokyo station. Ask for "Keiyo Street" as its a section of this massive station.
Read moreThe only down side is you have to purchase a platform ticket if you're not on the JR Chuo line already.
Pros: Delicious, Options, All vegan restaurant
Cons: Hard to find the first time

This place had good food - Edit
This vegan tantanmen was good. I had the white sesame seed tantanmen, and a size of gyoza (since I got the A set of the white sesame seed tantanmen). The gyoza were kind of small and fried but they were good. The tantanmen came with some spicy pepper stuff on the side that I could put it in. I would have liked for there to be some soy sauce, sesame oil, and spicy pepper to be able to make dipping sauce for the gyoza since there was no dipping sauce for it, but that is only a minor detail and the gyoza did taste good on its own.
Read moreThere was a line for this place, but also it was a Friday around dinner time on December 30th, so those factors may have made it a bit busier than normal. But just in case it might be good to prepare for a line. They handed us menus while we waited in line though so that was nice. The staff seemed nice as well.

Great ramen - Edit
The taste is definitely different from conventional ramen but the sesame soup base packs a flavourful umami punch with lots of depth. Shoyu soup base was also good. Soy-meat was fairly average, have had much better tasting ones else where. Great overall.

Hidden Vegan Ramen Gem - Edit
Delicious if you can find it! Tucked deep into the labyrinth that is Tokyo Station, T's Tantan delivers savory vegan ramen at a very reasonable price. The menu includes English names and descriptions and the staff speaks English as well. Well worth it if you can find it. Note you will need a rail pass to get in to the area that T's is at, but if you had the Japan Rail pass like we did that won't be a problem.
Read moreIf you are in the station and need to catch a train there is a bit of wait time but you should be able to get in and out in under 45 minutes.
Pros: Delicious, English Friendly
Cons: Hard to Find, Cramped eating area

Best Ramen - Edit
Basically what the other reviews said: very good ramen, generous portions, quick service, affordable, but quite hard to find and there was a line outside to wait to be seated. Saying that, it was definitely worth it and I hope to come back here again! Such a good find for vegans, and non vegans will enjoy too.
Read more*Directions*: We had a very hard time finding this place, despite following the clear directions in other reviews. We decided it was best to exit Tokyo station completely and enter from near the JR BUS station, and Yaeau exit, buy a Y140 admission ticket, go through the JR gates, turn left and walk straight until you see the last shop on the right with a poster Vegan Ramen!

We visited at 5pm so it was busy but there was no wait and we were seated quickly with an English menu. The food arrived quickly and was SO good - we had the seasonal ramen (which came with an additional dish of veg to put on top), gyoza, fried mock meat and a mini curry rice. Delicious, hot and filling.

Finally vegan ramen! - Edit
A delicious ramen restaurant in Tokyo! If you succeed to find it (as said in previous comments, from the outside of the Tokyo station you have to buy a platform ticket and go through the platform gates), you'll be rewarded with a delicious ramen bowl and some amazing dumplings! (best dumplings of my life)
Read moreWe tried the sweet-and-sour ramen and immediately fell in love with it. We loved it so much than we came back for it 3 times in 7 days!
We also tried the breakfast curry which was very good, but not as amazing as the ramen bowl. If you can, give it a try!
Pros: Amazing food, Not expensive
Cons: So hard to find the first time!

One of the Best Ramen's in Tokyo! - Edit
All I can say is fabulous Ramen! In a city that is very difficult to find vegan options we were so excited to try it. We visited there twice when we were in Tokyo for 5 nights. We weren't catching a train so just purchased a platform ticket (140 YEN) and it was well worth it. Fresh, fast and very well priced. They can speak fairly good English and have an English menu available too.

Yummy & great value! - Edit
Inside the Tokyo train station on Keio St heading to the Keio Line so if you don't have a ticket you'd need to buy one. We stopped by after our shinkansen journey. We had black sesame & green vegetable ramen, dumplings and some soy pieces. Great value for money and delicious. There's an English menu and staff speak English. Exactly what we needed after a long train ride!
