Buen Ramen vegano

El ramen estaba muy bueno, sabía mucho a ajo.

Fue un poco complicado encontrarlo, está en el 8º piso, en una esquina.

Pros: Ramen vegano

Cons: Difícil de encontrar

Good ramen

It has different vegan options! Nice place and good food. It’s in the 8th floor of the mall (it was a bit hard for me to find it). The ramen was good, I especially liked the fact it also had some protein, the plant base tonkatsu

Decent Ramen

On the top floor of the Lumine Shinjuku department store. This location has a couple of vegan ramen soups. The one I had was decent, maybe 3.5 out of 5. The place is a little fast foodish. You pay at the counter, they give you a pager and you come pick up your ramen when it’s ready. I’d go back if I didn’t have other places I wanted to try while I was here.

Great vegan ramen

Very good vegan ramen. Two options, plus vegan gyoza. Do yourself a favour and get the takeaway ramen packs to make at home, it’s next level good.

Decent ramen

I thought it was decent ramen. Wasn’t really a fan of the plant based meat in it. Wouldn’t go out of my way for it but would have it if in the area

Great option when you’re with someone who isn’t vegan!

Wanted to get a vegan ramen but my partner isn’t vegan- he’s happy to eat vegan but I also try not to force him (give him options) so this was perfect for both of us! Long neck beers too

Just okay

It's an average spot, best saved for when you're really in need of a meal. In my opinion, Ippudo in the US offers a much better experience.

Closing Time disappointment

We were looking for vegetarian dinner options in Lumine Est, at 840 pm at night & found Ippudo in HC. Excited & in anticipation of a great meal, my husband and I trekked out 20 mins by foot (after a long day of sightseeing) to the restaurant. The closing time stated on both Google & HC was 10 pm - we arrived at 9.33 pm, and were turned away at the door. Why state that your opening hours are until 10 pm, in multiple places, when you don't take orders after 9.30 pm. For travellers who are unfamiliar with the place, this is an extremely poor experience.

Pros: Promising vegetarian menu

Cons: Misleading opening hours

Good ramen!

They have three different kinds of ramen and gyoza. We tried the kontatsu ramen and it was really good. The soup is creamy and flavorful. The location is set inside a mall in shinjuku (lumine est) in the top floor!

A few ramen options - misleading name though

I'll start with the name. I feel like calling a restaurant a plant based studio implies that you're a plant based restaurant. I appreciate this may be their branch with the most plant based options but I'm still not on board with the name!

The food. There were 3 options for vegan ramen and a side of vegan gyoza. My partner and I both went for the vegan tonkotsu and enjoyed the dish. The broth was rich and creamy (as I believe a tonkotsu should be) and we enjoyed the flavour a lot. There were a couple of big slices of fried tofu which I enjoyed. They weren't really close to any sort of mock meat texture but they were tasty. The other toppings were generally fine, adding a bit of texture. I wasn't a big fan of the big piece of tomato though. As always, there were plenty of tasty noodles.

The gyoza were fine. They didn't have a huge amount of flavour so a dip in the sauce felt necessary.

Cool spot and great ramen

Really enjoyed the veggie tonkatsu, MIRATon. Would get again! Flavour was rich and great diversity of ingredients!

YUM!!!!

The vegan tonkotsu ramen was delicious!! The soup in particular is fantastic. The gyoza were good too. Nice seating area, very friendly staff, free water AND iced rooibos tea served in human-sized cups! Loved my meal here ❤️

Good Ramen

The Ramen was good, but in my opinion was the broth a bit bland. The Tonkotsu was extremly delicious and I loved that they offered them as an extra in their Ramen (Most Ramen places we ate at were more like noodles and broth, but no extra meat alternative). The Store is located in a big shopping mall and it was a bit difficult to find, it's the highest floor.

Tasty ramen

Vegan options are clearly labeled, and menus are available in English. I had the Miraton, which is a vegan tonkotsu ramen, and some gyoza. Both were delicious, and the portion sizes were great. Well priced, too. It's on the 8th floor of the mall.

Pros: Tasty food, Good prices, Spacious

Good

This restaurant is inside the Lumine Est shopping mall. They had several vegan ramen options and gyozas as well. The broth was really good, but the soy meat didn’t taste like much. Not the best vegan ramen in Tokyo but a nice option to have if you’re nearby.

Veggie Tonkotsu & Gyozas

All in all pretty good, but nothing special! Both gyozas and ramen tasted a bit “flat”, but you can add some spices to enhance the broth! Convenient location and a lot of space in the restaurant 👍🏻

Not to be missed

Vegan ramen is hard to find this is so thoughtfully put together. It’s a pleasure to look at and taste of course!

Good enough

I had the creamy broth ramen, it was good! A little bland for me, had to add extra spice on top! But a great option for vegan/vegetarian. Also this did not have onion or garlic in the broth!

Very yummy

After having tried a few other vegan ramen, this is my favourite! Love the creamy soup base n the plant based meat was tasty too. This is the only ramen that I’ve had so far that serves seaweed with ramen

A must to try the limited edition ramen, KINOPOTA is a creamy mushroom flavor.

A new plant-based ramen has been launched as a limited edition. The combination of rich and flavorful mushroom soup and ramen noodles is a perfect match. Toppings are a great way to enjoy different flavors. I would highly recommend!

Pros: Very clean and comfortable atmosphere , They always provide a couple of plant-based option

Great ramen and gyoza

Tried the vegan tonkotsu ramen which was topped with various veg and tofu (mocking meat).

The soup was creamy and flavourful, not too salty making it an easy and enjoyable meal.

Two vegan options plus vegan gyoza, all clearly labelled and the staff spoke English.
There was a autumn special which was a vegan mushroom ramen so depending on when you go, you may get to choose from three ramens.

Quick service and plenty of seating area so you are likely to get a seat!

Pros: Nice food , Good portion size , Free rooibos tea

Average ramen for your average Joe


毒にも薬にもならないってやつ。普通に美味しいんだけど、近くにはもっといい店いっぱいあるから、行かない方がいい。

This is your average ramen for your average Joe. If you haven't tried ramen before, then go for it. If you have, then I'd suggest going to some other place nearby(like Kakekomi gyoza).

Pros: Cozy atmosphere, Free tea
