Possibly the best vegan ramen in Tokyo - Edit
Not the kind of place we would usually venture into but I have to say, their ramen kicks some serious [censored]. The salt one is our pick by far. Great for when you're with non-veg friends and want an ambience that won't intimidate them... Really pleased that Tokyo is stepping up to the vegan challenge, finally. Oh, and they don't use MSG either - extra points for that. We expected to come out feeling heavy and tired but the exact opposite was the case - good energy food.
Read morePros: Great noodles, No MSG, Location seriously handy
Cons: Vibe is, well.. it is what it is, Only 2 options, Not exactly health food

great vegan ramen - Edit
They have two vegan ramens, one with soy sauce broth and one that's a salt broth. I had the soy sauce broth and it was wonderful. It's affordable, and you can even order extra noodles to help you finish the broth. The broth, which is often lacking in vegan ramen, really stood out as superior. This is by far the best vegan ramen I've had in my stay in Tokyo.

Best Vegan Ramen Ever - Edit
Vegan ramen close to Harajuku station, cost 1000 yen for standard vegan ramen, we paid 1200yen for vegan ramen with extra vegetable. Good value for money, food arrived very very quickly, staff were friendly and assured us that it was vegan. Best tasting ramen I’ve had! Would definitely recommend for vegans and vegetarians.

This place had a couple of vegan options and heaps for non-vegetarians/vegans which is great when you're dining with one. Service was efficient, and the ramen was flavourful!
Read morePros: Great taste, Good price, Good service

Good ramen eatery - Edit
Good ramen eatery. There is a big selection of ramen in here, including several vegan/ vegetarian options (salty and soy sauce broth). One can select either one of the “basic” options, or top it up with extra add-on ingredients. There is an English menu. We ordered vegan soy sauce ramen and topped it up with boiled eggs. Ramen was tasty, the broth was very rich and vegetables crisp. Price was also ok despite a touristy location.

So good we went twice - Edit
This ramen was delicious and in a great location. Had a menu with many different translations. My partner who isn't veg was very happy with the taste of his dish also. Very generous serve, always left satisfied after eating. Staff are lovely and you eat at the counter which is fun. Definitely recommend

Amazing Ramen! - Edit
I can't say enough good things about their ramen. This ramen was the best vegan ramen we've eaten on our trip hands down! The broth was so rich with flavor, the noodles tasted fresh and bouncy, the toppings were really good. The soymeat was so very tender and juicy.
Read moreThey only have 1 vegan ramen option, however they advertise it from outside of the shop, and you can also order it with extra soymeat topping if you'd like and extra veggie toppings on the side. You can add more noodles to your broth at the beginning of ordering or middle of eating (make sure to get the 200yen noodles, since the 150yen aren't vegan).
The place is always very busy and popular (for a reason), so you might have to wait in line a bit. However, people do eat pretty quickly and leave, so the wait shouldn't be too long.
This place is definitely a 5 star if happycow would let me!
Pros: amazing vegan ramen
Cons: can get very busy

great location and great ramen - Edit
We popped in here after a long morning of sightseeing. The staff members helped us with the English menu and right on the front was the vegan option. It was so nice to have ramen with my husband (who isn't vegetarian) I would for sure come here again.

The best vegan ramen we had, in a great atmosphere - Edit
I thought we'd have to sacrifice the experience of eating in a ramen bar in order to stick to vegan-friendly places in Tokyo, but eating here was such a great experience! They have two vegan ramen options and a variety of vegan-friendly additional toppings. It's a simple, no-frills place with a great atmosphere. We loved this place, and it felt much closer to proper ramen than some of the vegan places we visited.

The place is definitely serves the best vegan Ramen in Tokyo! Even though it's quite small and you will probably have to wait, it's worth it.

probs 5* but serves meat - Edit
Really good umami bit sweet bit salty soup with the vegan noodles. Good assortment of veggies.
Read moreAdd extra vegan noodles for 200 (if you offer to pay 150 they'll tell you those aren't the vegan noodles).
If you're still hungry after finishing your noodles, order more and add loads of garlic or sesame seeds (I assume these are vegan haha)
I think many people would have given these noodles 5 stars, but there's a 4 star limit.

OMG in my mouth! - Edit
So happy to have found this in happy cow. The first time to have tried ramen in Japan so far and it was what I have been waiting for. Very tasty with heaps of little condiments in the dish including mock meat, fried shallots, pickled ginger, bean sprouts. With a few dollars order toppings to go with it which includes mushrooms, spring onions, bamboo/cabbage.

Delicious and easy to understand - Edit
Found this restaurant while in Harajuku thanks to Happy Cow. Easy to understand menu and the ramen came out quickly. Super delicious! It absolutely hit the spot on a cold day and was fresh yet hearty. I will definitely be returning when I visit Tokyo again.

If you're in Harajuku, VISIT here! - Edit
Ordered: Only one vegan option, and so ordered the vegan ramen. Got a bowl of ramen with a soy-based stock, sproingy noodles, beansprouts, menma (bamboo shoots), nori, green onions, pieces of grilled soy meat, and some sprigs of saffron. The noodles are not vegan by default though, be sure that you order the vegan ones!
Read moreThis place is easy to find. It’s on the second floor of the building with the Family Mart in it close to the JR Harajuku station. It was BUSY when we came at around about 2 and we needed to wait for about 10 minutes. That was outside the lunch rush hour so I can’t imagine what this place would be like at around about 12-1. Having said that, the line moved quickly and we didn’t have to stay too long in the claustrophobic waiting area! The wait was well worth it too because even though there was only one vegan option, it is SERIOUSLY GOOD. I also went to T’s Tantan and Afuri during my time in Tokyo and I have to say that this place had the tastiest vegan ramen. Jangara’s ramen is probably the least healthy of the three but ramen is generally not supposed to be healthy. I guess in terms of authenticity, Jangara wins. The two highlights of the dish were the strong full-bodied broth, and the grilled soy meat pieces. They were nice and smoky and definitely contributed a more well-rounded flavour to the ramen.

Best ramen - Edit
Clearly labeled. Reasonably priced. Doesn't try too hard to be healthy like some other vegan ramens. Can add extra noodles at start or during meal and staff always clarify that you want the vegan noodles. Went back an additional 3 times in the week because it was seriously that good. Would give 5 if happy cow let me.
Read morePros: Staff speak very good English, clearly labeled
Cons: Only 1 option
