A HUGE let down - Edit
I came to this ramen restaurant expecting the best vegan ramen in Tokyo. Stellar reviews, so much hype. Firstly, it was super hard to find as we didn't understand you needed to be inside he JR station. When we finally got there, there was quick seating, really nice how they gave out English menus, nice atmosphere. Food came out super fast as well. I got the shoyu ramen, my other two companions got the Suratanmen and the White Tan Tan. It honestly was just really bland tasting broth with a bunch of soup, and not that many vegetables. There was no deep rich flavor that was expecting from so many reviews. The soy meat that came with the shoyu ramen was also really hard and tasteless. We also ordered the gyoza, which my other two really liked but honestly I felt the skin tasted rubbery and just not delicious. Really a disappointing lunch, would much rather grab a bowl of Tan Tan from Jinnan Ramen in Shibuya. Considering how it was the same price as "meat" ramen my friends thought it was overpriced, and I for one agree. There just wasn't even that many veggies, there wasn't anything of true quality and it was just bland. Just super disappointing. Really do not understand the hype, except for the fact that it is nice knowing that there is no cross contamination and that there is a variety of ramen. Now maybe we lucked out on the ramen we choose, but that was 3 out of the 8 ramen they offered. Worth it to go try again? Certainly not.

Very delicious - Edit
Very delicious vegan ramen. We were there at noon and had to wait like 15 minutes. So it seems to be very popular. Deservedly.

Vegan Ramen in Japan! - Edit
We refused to leave Japan without having tried Ramen, Sushi and Dumplings at least once. Vegan Sushi is easier to find but we really struggled with ramen and dumplings. This place is a real blessing. We had to wait for a little bit to get in but it didn't take long.
Read moreWe tried to get there a first time but it's true that you need a train ticket and we didn't have any. But watch out, the subway ticket doesn't work, only the railway or Shinkansen ticket. We were really disappointed but as fate willed we got there on our very last day as we were about to leave Tokyo by Shinkansen. Even if we weren't hungry we ordered a set menu with ramen and dumplings and it was SO GOOD!
Pros: water for free, delicious
Cons: you need a train ticket to get there

I absolutely love this place - make sure to visit while at Tokyo Station! - Edit
I always make sure to visit this place whenever I'm passing through Tokyo Station. Ramen is one of those famous dishes of Japan that vegetarians are unable to experience, but if you come here, you can enjoy delicious ramen that is also vegetarian! Their soy meat that they use is delicious. Definitely don't miss this place!

100+ can't be wrong right? that's right. - Edit
Visited T's twice whilst in Tokyo and may even go back one more time if I have time. If you're going to see the madhouse that is Tokyo station and you're vegan, you'd be a FOOL to not try T's if you have the time. If you're visiting Japan there's a good chance that you have the Japan Rail pass allowing you free entry into the station but it IS inside the station. To repeat what others have said, its very near the Yaesu south exit. Tokyo Station is a big hot mess. The restaurant is in a corner on the main floor just to the right of a single one direction escalator coming up.
Read moreRamen in Japan is very not vegan, maybe other's experiences have differed but every package I've ever google translated contained fish or pork, so being able to eat such an authentic dish while you're there is awesome.
Btw, for those who can't read Kanji, those extra vegetables you can order are pickled vegetables on the side, not veggies that go inside your ramen. And if you're vegan in Japan you might have just had enough of pickled veggies! haha.
Pros: Under $10, English Menu, Very Friendly
Cons: Busy, had to wait in line twice

this place is da bomb - Edit
they have it right, their philosophy is painted on the walls, so you can be sure the food you're eating is just that, food, not animals...
Read moreI had some curry plate and i just remember everything being very tasty... i'm not sure how authentic it all is, but that really isn't something that bothers me, they have the right idea and its very friendly, despite being so popular its almost bursting...

Don't exit the gates! - Edit
When you get to Tokyo station, don't exit the ticket gates! The restaurant is easy to find if you stay within the ticketed zone, leaving that (but still inside the station) will give you a crazy runabout of hair-pulling frustration.
Read morePros: All vegan ramen. Tasty.
Cons: Difficult location. Quick turnaround, no chance

kick-ass ramen - Edit
This place is hard to find. It's on the second floor inside the JR station. It's packed, but service is fast and people come in and out quickly. The very hot ramen wax just what I needed to be a happy camper in my way to Kyoto. My only regret is not being able to go back and try more menu items

Best Ramen - Edit
Located in Tokyo Station, it's simple to find. Just follow the signs for "Keiyo Line", (as you would go for Tokyo Disneyland, too) and if you reach the Keiyo Street (you'll see it in big letters) it's the last restaurant on the right.
Read moreT's Tantan has the best Shoyu Ramen (soy sauce base) I've ever tasted. I always order the Shoyu Ramen everytime I'm there because It's my absolute favourite. Unfortunately last month I went, the Shoyu Ramen was only on the morning menu and not on the normal menu anymore. I hope this will change again.
A small advice: On the opposite of T's Tantan there is a small bakery called "La Terre" and they have a lot vegan delicious bread options, i.e. the walnut chocolate bread, olive bread, the baguettes and a soy cream filled doughnut.
I go there everytime before I visit Tokyo Disneyland, and when I come back I go for delicious Ramen at T's Tantan! :)
Pros: Good price, Amazing Shoyu Ramen, Inside the station, so you don't need to check out
Cons: Shoyu Ramen was only on morning menu

Incredibly Yummy - Edit
Probably the best vegan restaurant I've ever been to (I've been to most places in Chicago and Tokyo).
Read moreMust taste the Tantan noodle. If you like spicy, then try the middle spicy and if you can take that, eat the hottest one! Tonkotsu style noodle is also yummy but not as incredibly amazingly super delicious as the tan tan noodles. The dumplings are super yummy too! I've had the curry as a side dish, but would recommend the dumplings more!
Also I love that every single menu at this place is totally vegan! It's so easy and comforting.
Pros: Incredibly delicious tan tan noodle, Everything is totally vegan , Perfect portion for an adult vegan person
Cons: Inside the station so you have to pay to get in (b, One of the current staffs is a little unfriendly (, The middle spicy tan tan is quite spicy so it woul

Must Try! Read instructions for location. - Edit
Great delicious ramen! A Must-Try!
Read moreMy favorite is T's Tantan (one of the choice).
This info should make it very easy for people to locate T's Tan Tan from inside Tokyo station since the station is huge! It was very difficult to find this place based on current info provided on happycow:
T's Tan Tan is on 1F (1st floor) of Tokyo station.
If coming from Keiyo line, move in the direction of JR Chuo line and you will reach a lighted sign "Keiyo Street" on the right. The restaurant is the 1st shop on the left at a corner.
If coming from other lines, move in the direction of Keiyo line. Youu will pass some souvenir shops on the right. Once you see "Book Express" on the left, you will find T's Tan Tan, last shop at the corner on your right.
Last order is 10.30 pm.
Good especially when you are on way back from Tokyo Disneyland after the last show ends at 9.10 pm.
Pros: delicious , long opening hours

inside the station! - Edit
Good ramen, I didn't really like the dumplings that I found too dry (no sauce with it), good menu. Set ramen and dumpling was 1000 yen, reasonable price.
Read moreBe careful the restaurant is inside the station, you have to pass the gates to find it.
Pros: not too pricey clean, fashionable relax atmosphere
Cons: inside station, lots a fake meat

tricky to find but worth the search - Edit
The first time we tried to find T's, both the map on happy cow and Google maps couldn't show us where to go.
Read moreA few days later we managed to find it near Keiyo Street at Tokyo Station, hidden away to the side. It's inside the station so you need a ticket. I had an Apple Lemonade Tea that was to die for! My partner had a Caramel Tea which was also great, sweet too.
We had the lunch set of Ramen with rice and soy meat. The soy meat was incredible, and the ramen was good but I got one without much of a broth so will try again next time
Pros: Incredible Tea, Easy menu
Cons: Hard to find

don't even think about skipping this place - Edit
stopped by for lunch before catching the train to my hotel in narita, and sorely regretted not eating there the previous night as well.
Read morei ordered their lunch set A, which is your choice of tantan (i went with the spicy midori tantan) and a bowl of karaage on rice. my only complaint is that their noodles were a wee bit soft, but it honestly didn't affect my dining experience. i was so impressed that i ended up shelling out the cash for their cookbook and a bag of their TVP.

Ramen - Edit
Their vegan ramen are amazing! Really, I could eat there everyday!
Read moreThe only negative point is that it's inside the station. So if you don't take a train you still have to pay a fee for the entrance. But I will still come back again and again!

must eat!! - Edit
This is totally MUST EAT place! Been here 3 days in a row (and only 5days in tokyo)
Read moreAlso good for budget meal deal (soup/curry + side) is for only 1050yen, so about £6-7 and you can't eat all.
It's in tokyo station, so you need to buy platform ticket for 140yen, but totally worth it!
Look for red 'keiyo' line and follow the directions, you will find 'keiyo street' and there's a t's tantan! Bit confusing, but if you follow red keiyo line sign you'll find it without problem. My omni boyfriend didn't want 'regular' ramen after trying this one!

Yummy! - Edit
Our family found this on our second to last day in Tokyo and we were so sad we hadn't found it earlier! It is so yummy! It was really nice eating food where everything you ordered you didn't have to worry about eating meat or getting sneaky fish flakes in your meal. They happily seated our large party of 6 (and our luggage) and understood our English and hand signals. The food comes out quick, is beautifully presented and tastes delicious. We had ramen bowls and some sets too, all delicious. The soy meat was excellent. Can't rate this restaurant highly enough. It's tucked away just as you get off from the Keiyo line, straight after the escalator so keep a sharp eye out.
Read morePros: Every dish is vegetarian and could be vegan.

Convenient, vegan, delicious - Edit
If it's your first time going to T's TanTan, make sure you ask someone to direct you to Keiyu Street. Tokyo Station is huge! The restaurant, however, is not. If you go at lunch, you may end up waiting in a long line to get in, it's worth the wait though. Everything is good.. I generally get a ramen set: T's Shoyu Ramen (soy meat, seasoned Chinese bamboo shoot, green onion, bean sprouts, seaweed) & fried soy meat on top of rice. They also usually serve at least one curry, and a spicy ramen as well. The menu changes throughout the year. The last time I went (5 April 2016) they had a seasonal ramen featuring Hokkaido potatoes. Drinks are a little expensive. I sometimes get a tea, and they're priced at ¥400+.
Read morePros: Everything is delicious, Convenient/English Menu, Vegan/No worries of cross contamination
Cons: Most staff speak little English, Less variety than T's Restaurant, Sometimes long queues to get in

delicious, inexpensive and convenient! - Edit
Yum... Hard to find vegan noodles around Tokyo, this place really satiates your noodle cravings! Cheap and quick(if you avoid lunch and dinner peak hour), it's super convenient to grab a bowl of ramen on your way from A to B in the Tokyo station. We've been back several times during our week in Tokyo.

Fabulous! - Edit
This is one of my favourite eateries in Tokyo. I always get the Veggie ramen with fried vegetable gyoza (1010Yen) and the hot orange or lemon tea (450Yen) which you can buy a small bag of (750Yen for 10 teabags). It is a casual dining area which has been extremely busy every time I've been.

The best vegan place to eat in Tokyo - Edit
It is funny to look back at how amazed I was at Tokyo vegan food when we went here for our first restaurant experience. However as the days followed, every restaurant that came afterwards were worse when it came to taste and expensive. So I had to come back for more amazing ramen goodness. You get a lot for your buck.
Read moreOnly bad thing I can say is that the ramen brine is a bit too salty and greasy. However the ramen noodles balance that out.
Pros: Great taste, Great location, Inexpensive
Cons: Greasy, Salty

Tantan - Edit
My partner and I went here on the way through Tokyo station while doing some shopping in the area. Yes, you do need to be in the actual station to come to this place.
Read moreWe went for the 'set' meal where you choose a ramen type dish and a side. We both enjoyed our meals. The place felt a little cramped but the staff were friendly and were able to help us in giving us the English menu.
