Many choices

Personally, I don't like green onions. It would be better if there are more beverage options. I got thirsty after eating ramen and side dishes.

Loveeee

Several good options, completely plant-based. Located in a small food court with a handful of other restaurants. Service was quick, food was flavorful. Can’t ask for more than that😄jk ambiance certainly could have been better but the ramen was great😄

Pros: Lots of toppings, Creamy, flavorful broth

Cons: Sucky food court ambiance

Great food but poor service

Visited as a family of 5 and each ordered a soup but they forgot to make one of them and unknown to us had closed the kitchen. We tried to order more food and were told no. They did make the soup in the end but would not allow us to even buy the premade waffles for dessert when it was 2 minutes after closing time and had not even closed out the till yet. After messing up an order you’d think the least they could do is allow someone to just buy a waffle. Disappointing to see this rigidity and lack of concern for customer satisfaction.

Pros: Food was excellent

Cons: Poor service , Forgot to make one of the meals , Refusal to accomodate

Delicious Ramen

I tried the Shio Ramen upon recommendation from the staff along with Karaage and Gyoza. The ramen is very flavorful and karage is also very crispy and great. Gyoza was a bit underwhelming.
I felt the food is a bit on the pricier side.

Pros: Location

Cons: Pricey

Yum

I got the deluxe miso ramen with karaage. It exceeded my expectations— delicious, flavorful, and little spicy, loads of toppings. The karaage was great too. Carrying my heavy tray of ramen up the stairs to our table was kind of a drag. Next time I’ll use the elevator. It was a little pricey too, but I’d happily eat here again. #Veganuary

Didn’t disappoint

Vejin Tokyo Vegan Ramen is a satisfying and authentic ramen experience that is also vegan-friendly. Located in Food Hall Blast, a trendy dining complex in Shinjuku, VeJin offers a variety of plant-based ramen dishes that are rich in flavor and texture.

I ordered the Vege White Soup Soy Sauce Special, which came with soy meat chashu, burdock chips, green onion, red onion, and a spicy meat miso on the side. The broth was creamy and savory, with a hint of sweetness from the soy sauce. The noodles were chewy and bouncy, and the toppings added crunch and freshness. The soy meat chashu was especially impressive, as it mimicked the texture and flavor of real meat very well. The spicy meat miso added a nice kick to the dish, and I could adjust the spiciness to my liking.

Vejin uses a thick and creamy white soup base that resembles the traditional tonkotsu (pork bone) broth. VeJin's ramen is satisfying and filling, except it’s a bit greasy for me.

A 4.5 out of 5 stars, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves ramen, vegan or not. VeJin proves that vegan ramen can be just as delicious and satisfying as regular ramen, and it does so with creativity and quality. There might be a wait during peak hours as the food court is quite small and popular.

yummy vegan food

I usually don’t like ramen but of course had to have some during my trip. This place is located in a little food hall thing right next to Plant Based Tokyo which is delish. The ramen was soooo good and loved that it was a fully vegan place so I don’t have to worry about things like the broth containing fish or anything like that. It’s also super accessible, you can’t miss it if you’re walking by lol. Def recommend

Several vegan ramen options

We came for the vegan ramen and it was pretty good! There were plenty of options which was great. We liked the atmosphere of the building - I wouldn't describe it as a food court (as someone else did here), it's more of a food hall, if that makes sense. It's dimly lit, and they sell alcohol at the bar - almost more of a beer hall, perhaps! You need to order at the counter for Plant Based Tokyo, even though VeJin is to the left of Plant Based.

Decent ramen, but nothing special

Ignoring the other ratings, this ramen place is just average and nothing special. The location is in a food court and everything is self service

Delicious ramen

This is one of the best ramen I’ve had in Tokyo. The broth is really flavorful and I liked that the ramen also included some mock meat. The gyozas are also super yummy!
The atmosphere is not the best since it’s inside a food court, but if you don’t mind that I’d definitely recommend!

Food Court Quality

The Ramen, Karaage and Gyoza are decent, but nothing special. The place is located in a food court and that‘s pretty much the quality you can expect. There‘s better options in Tokyo, but if you are looking for something quick and decent; sure.

You order on the left side of Plant Based Tokyo even though the actual Ramen store is situated between Plant Based and Cucinova. Ignore the somewhat confusing „order here“ sign, the staff will send you to the Plant Based counter.

Delicious new vegan ramen spot in Tokyo!

This place was overall really enjoyable. Great toppings,good price. It’s located in the blast! Food hall right beside the plant based Tokyo restaurant. Also serving vegan pizza. Miso based ramen was so good!! The Gyoza was also really tasty— hard on one side and soft on the other. Some of the best we’ve had since being in Japan. Lovely spot. Lovely atmosphere as well

New vegan ramen spot near Shinjuku JR

Located between Plant Based Tokyo (vegan) and Pizza Cucinova (has a vegan pizza with vegn mock meat and Daiya Cheese) in Food Hall Blast.

Has around 3-5 main ramen dishes and some sides.
Soup is rich but not overpowerinf like the one from Ippudo Plant Studio. This is a great place to take omni friends as there different restaurants in Food Blast.
