inside the station!

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.
Be 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

excellent ramen

Fantastic bowls of ramen, huge and cheap and flavourful- available with a number of side options such as fried dumplings (my choice) or rice & curry.

tricky to find but worth the search

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.
A 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

stopped by for lunch before catching the train to my hotel in narita, and sorely regretted not eating there the previous night as well.
i 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

Their vegan ramen are amazing! Really, I could eat there everyday!
The 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!!

This is totally MUST EAT place! Been here 3 days in a row (and only 5days in tokyo)
Also 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!

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.

Pros: Every dish is vegetarian and could be vegan.

This is inside Tokyo station , get a ticket (platform or to your next destination. My omni family and I came here twice, I think they agree it's the best ramen we had a chance to try.

Convenient, vegan, delicious

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+.

Pros: 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!

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!

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

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.

Only 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

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.

We 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.

Amazing vegan ramen noodles

T's Tantan quickly became a favourite on a recent trip to Japan. We had 4 meals there in between shooting to and from Tokyo including 1 breakfast, 2 lunches and 1 dinner.
Seriously, the ramen noodles are amazing.
The menu does not change so if you like what you had for dinner, you can also have it for breakfast :). This made it awesome for me as I absolutely loved it.
Its located on "Keiyo Street" (it really is a food mall, not a street as such) inside Tokyo station - we accessed it mainly from the Yaesu Central Exit. You need a JR rail pass or a train ticket to access Keiyo Street. We found it a little tricky to find at first as Tokyo station is a labrynth to the uninitiated. After some help and much pointing and gesticulating from a kind and friendly station security person, we found Keiyo Street. Then we found T's Tantan. And then I found ramen heaven!
I liked Set A which is a bowl of delicious mock meat on rice with a bowl of ramen noodles.
Another cool thing is that there is no desert at T's Tantan. They focus on what they are good at with a streamlined menu. Why muck around when your ramen is this good?
I am not a coffee drinker but really liked their coffee. It may have had something to do with the cold Tokyo weather and the awesome sugar syrup and soy milk served in cute little beer steins for ants...
The vegetarian graphics and messages around the restaurant are a nice touch. As they say on the walls... smile + vegetables + health = smilevege = happiness. Couldn't have said it better myself.
The service is friendly and fast. Whilst the staff speak minimal English, there is an English menu that the language challenged like myself can order from.
Do yourself a favour: go to Tokyo and visit T's Tantan. It is sen-sa-tion-al!!

Pros: Amazing vegan ramen noodles, Service is friendly and fast

The best in Tokyo

Literally the best vegan food in Tokyo, obviously very hard to eat out as a vegan in Japan, luckily this restaurant makes up for it! use your JR Pass to get into the tokyo station and ask the information booth for directions. You will not be disappointed :)

I have eaten here twice and it is really delicious. The food is relatively cheap, but a little more expensive than non-vegan ramen places. They also sell food, cook books and some other things at the restaurant.

Great location, great ramen

I appreciate the convenient location, where you do not even have to leave the Tokyo station (inside of JR Tokyo station, by South exit of Yaesu)

It's a quick eat and go place so does not serve side dishes nor dessert.

Ramen is great, but I think they could increase the volume.

Sometime their ramen is too soft.

Some of their staffs could be a little more friendly.

Best vegan ramen place in Tokyo!

I go here a lot, and by lot I mean the staff knows me and my order. The Ts tan tan ramen + A set is my recomendation, cause then you get their awesome fried soy meat with! If you dont like it spicy just remove the chili straws on the top.

Pros: Cheap, Easy to find, The ramen

Cons: Dont expect any fancy dining

Tokyo Ramen

This was my first Ramen place in Tokyo so I don't have a lot to compare to. I ordered the T's Tantan combo C and was pretty happy with it. Everyone else's food looked great so I wish I could have tried more. I got there just before 11am when they switch menus. I think the early menu had some cheaper options. I've always thought that food in Tokyo would be crazy expensive but found this place very reasonable.
Although there is an English menu, nobody working there spoke any English so bring your Google translator app if you have questions.

Pros: Location, Good food, Nice place

Cons: No English

Best vegan ramen in Tokyo

I've been looking for great vegan ramen in Tokyo for a while; the search is over. T's Tantan is officially the champion! Good selection of options (after 11am - though still good before) at very reasonable prices. The soya meat is fantastic and there's not too much, the soup is just how I remember (from before I turned vegan), and the noodles taste very fresh; I can't say enough how good this was.

Only slight downside is location: you have to plan your visit to coincide with a trip to or from Tokyo station (it's on Keiyo street - follow signs for the Keiyo line), as it's behind the ticket barriers.

Pros: Best vegan ramen in Tokyo, Do I need to say anything else?

The food was very good! It's located inside the busy Tokyo station so there's often a line to get in but it's worth it.
