Vegan food in abundance!

Great place, lots of options and lovely staff. We ordered a noodle bowl and then got carried away and ordered 4 small plates - all to share. The noodle bowls are huge and very saucy, superb!! The small plates are tasty, green beans were a favourite

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Great service, Cool, easy vibe

A Rare Gem

A pleasure to eat here in a city where we found very limited choices for good vegan food. The selection of small plates gave a good range of choices and tastes. Service was good and there was a nice buzz about the place. We’d be happy to eat here again.

Updated from previous review on 2026-07-04

Pros: Variety of choices, Quality of food, Atmosphere and vibe.

Wonderful vegan options

We had a few small plates and one of the noodle bowls. Everything was absolutely delicious. There are so many vegan and gluten-free options to choose from! Friendly service. The place was packed on a Wednesday evening. It gets a bit noisy.

Recommended by another Restaurant !

Looking for a walkin on a friday evening, used the HC app and went to another place as this place didn't show up under the Vegan classification. No room where we went but the manager stated a great place for Vegan food was Jumon. Checked Google and we were only a few hundred yards away. The waitress at Jumon was very accommodating and fitted us in with a strict time limit. Great vibe in the compact restaurant, nice atmosphere, friendly knowledgeable staff, offered water, then a bar service which was nice, no hard sell for alcoholic drinks! Great choice of starters, small plates and mains for Vegans, only saw Vegetarian desserts unfortunately :-(. We ordered the Hungley and the Green Khao Soi Noodle bowls and they were both delicious. Nice flavours and the right amount of spicy kick! The waiter taking the order did enquire if I could cope with the level of spice in the Green Khao Soi which was a timely warning... The restaurant was busy and there was a constant flow of customers coming and going during our 1 hour squeezed slot.

Happy Cow has it listed as Vegetarian but the Menu is predominantly Vegan.

Great food, nice ambiance

Got here through happy cow. Wonderful place! Nice staff, plenty of vegan options, good ambiance. We were with two, chose 4 small plates: gado gado, hummus, yellow dahl and chaat. Nice combo and enough for the 2 of us. The hummus was really, really good! Chaat too. Would definitely go back.

Somehow submitted before I'd finished review. Went twice in a week. First time I forgot to take photos. Had Dan Dan which was amazing and quite spicy.
Second time I had Hungley which seemed to be a bottomless bowl of peanut sauce. Very full after. My partner said the yellow dhal was the best dhal she's ever tasted.

Absolutely delicious 😍

We called in with no booking on an early Thursday evening and got a cosy table for two. I opted for the Laksa and my (non vegan) dining partner had the Kundan Kurry. Both dishes looked amazing and my Laksa was absolutley delicious. My friend loved her dish and was amazed at the flavoursome vegan food. 6 out of the 8 main dishes were vegan, the other two are vegan adaptable.
The vibe was good and staff very friendly. A repeat visit is a must!

Great vegan food in Belfast

When I asked around for vegan options in Belfast, this was the most recommended. I really enjoyed my visit. The quality of the dishes on the menu is high and the food was very flavourful. I ordered three small plates which was very filling.

The Book of Jumon

A hugely popular place where booking is highly advisable. Saturday night in Belfast centre is quite an experience and the bustling restaurant was no exception. After a couple of half’s of Asahi at the bar we were seated and embarked on a South East Asian culinary journey starting with a spicy glazed tofu and cucumber dish followed by a Laksa and a butter cashew curry. Both were gently spiced and fragrant. The unexpectedly thick curry in the Laksa was dominant throughout and quite overwhelming but really enjoyable. Quite pricey at £77 including service for a starter, 2 mains, 2 beers and 2 medium glasses of wine.

Pros: Mostly all vegan

Cons: Gets very busy , Pricey

Wish I could rate higher

As the title suggests I really wanted to like this place, but the pad Thai was simply bad. My friend had a non-vegan item, and a cocktail and liked it, but it was one of the worst pad Thais I’ve ever had (sour and spicy, not sweet or peanuty at all). I was talking to locals after and they said the pad Thai was the only bad dish on the menu, and sadly that was my experience.

Updated from previous review on 2025-08-14

Cons: Don’t get pad Thai! , Very expensive

Popular veggie place

Popular restaurant, arty decor, it was quite noisy. Most of the food was either vegan or could be made vegan. We had a selection of small plates including broccoli, dumplings, fried rice, tofu, green beans - all very tasty. There was one vegan desserts - a brownie with ice cream and raspberries.

Pros: Fun atmosphere , Tasty food, Inexpensive hand mixed mocktails

Cons: Noisy at busy times

Amazing food

Came here with a group of friends - I got the vegan mandu tacos, the kkanpoong tofu, and the jiaozi.

Everything was delicious and fresh (especially the tofu - lovely and crispy and garlicky!). Staff are very friendly too, and we weren't waiting that long for our food. Good atmosphere overall. I hear they change their menu frequently, so I'll try to be back again.

Pros: Fully vegetarian menu, veg items can be veganised, Delicious and fresh food, Friendly staff

Fabulously tasty food

Really enjoyed our food here. Unusual menu. Couldn’t choose between everything
Plenty of vegan and veggie choices.
There’s a choice of small plates @£9 which would suit a starter between 2. The mains @£17 were plentiful too.
The Laksa was lovely.
Excellent service

Pros: Food, Service, Menu

Cons: I was too full, Can’t choose as it’s all lovely

Very quick, tasty food.

Speedy delivery, must have pots of the stuff on the go, variation vegetables a little short in supply (I had one tiny wee button mushroom and one pak choi leaf). Their credit card machine added £6 to the bill for whatever reason, which felt a little scammy and for which they lose one star.

Pros: Quick, Tasty, Friendly

Cons: Scammy credit card machine, Lots of sauce, not much veg

Delicious spicy food!

A lovely ambience in this fusion restaurant - difficult to choose what to have! Opted for dan dan noodles with tofu and mushroom which was delicious but very hot - standout was the fried broccoli starter with kimchi and miso mayo.

Cool vibes, good menu

Cool restaurant in Belfast city centre with an Asian themed menu. All dishes are vegan save for two which contain eggs and milk respectively but which are described as vegan adaptable. Nice service. Really enjoyed my starter - I had the KFB broccoli - which was delicious and my friend ordered the hummus which was a giant portion and tasted really good. Our mains were again generous portions but not as good as the starters. Not bad by any means but the flavour balance was a little off. Overall would still recommend for easy, stress free eating.

Very detailed dishes

Really detailed dishes. Reminds me a bit of fine dining with lots of tiny, tasty, colourful components. We had a small plate each as a starter and a large plate each as a main. I had the nori starter. It was like hot sushi. Really unusual and tasty. My jackfruit curry was tasty and more filling than I expected. The jackfruit was in with the rice and then the sauce was served on the side. Lovely to get tofu as well as jackfruit. The pickled lychees were a lovely contrast. Lots of vegan options to try. We found the acoustics noisy and hard to chat. I remember this previously but thought a Monday night would be quiet but it was nearly full. Great to see so many people enjoying meat free meals!

Update - 27/1/25 - still noisy but this time it was the music as it wasn’t as busy. There was a January sale with a few pounds off for two courses. So we had a starter each, a main each and a low alcohol beer each. It was £60 including the obligatory 10% service charge. It was tasty and beautifully presented. We both had gado gado salad starter which was delicious- one tofu cube, two sweet potato croquettes served with a well flavoured bean sprout, edamame and rocket salad. Our mains looked amazing but they were very spicy and lost all the
Subtle flavours. I had a katsu curry and he had a ‘cashew butter’ vegan dish. Both came with brown rice. There is a second branch now in east Belfast in a converted container.

Good food but poor value for money

Jumon is all vegetarian, Asian fusion. It’s a hipster type setting which had a lovely lively vibe and the staff were very helpful. The food was nice, I just felt that for the price there was very little substance to it. My dish was mainly noodles with a lot of sauce and a tiny bit of veg. My partners dish similarly was mainly rice with 4 cubes of tofu and a little bit of veg. The dessert was lovely though as were the starters but again these were very expensive for what they were

This is a must visit!

This place is amazing, the food was outstanding. We hadn't had much luck finding good vegan food until we came here! The portion sizes are good and it wasn't expensive.

We had starters, mains and desserts.

Fully vegan apart from one starter has honey in it.



Visited again in Jan 2025 - delicious curry & poppadoms and pad Thai. There were non vegan items on the menu.
Unfortunately there were more non vegans items on the menu than last time.

Worth a visit!

Great menu with an amazing selection of dishes and drinks. We had a couple of small dishes and a couple of bigs, all were delicious.
One of the best veggie/vegan restaurants I’ve ever been to, such good vibes.

Great drink menu too, good selection of wine & cocktails.

Staff were really friendly and keen to give recommendations.

Date Vibe + Delicious Spicy Food

Complex drinks, spicy fare, exquisite dessert. I almost passed on a drink, but glad I ordered one. The non alcoholic mixed drinks were a hit too. Tons of spice to them.

Be aware that they use V for vegan and VA for vegan adaptable, but not well. For example, the ramen said V but had egg. When I asked they said it can be made vegan by omitting the egg.

Overall great food, but quite spicy, including the Gadogado salad.

Also, while the restaurant says they close at 10, kitchen closes about an hour earlier.

Too expensive for what you get.

If you’re vegetarian or vegan, it’s likely you’ve had to learn to cook and it’s likely you’ve become a good cook. Maybe it’s because I can cook good veggie food that I found Jumon’s fare uninspiring. I had a curry, which consisted of brown rice, four cubes of tofu, a peanut sauce, a bread-like tuile and a garnish of thinly-sliced red peppers. It was nicely presented and tasted OK but wasn’t worth the extortionate £17 they charged. It’s effectively Asian street food at overly-inflated prices. The restaurant’s ambiance is nice but the food is far too expensive for what you get. To be fair, it’s not just Jumon that does this. It’s become the norm in expensive Belfast, where we’re now paying London prices to eat out.

Pros: Nice ambiance, Attentive staff, Good range of drinks

Cons: Too expensive, Average food
