Great food and atmosphere

One of not many places where you can actually enjoy your food without queueing or being rushed. Cosy, with nice atmosphere, welcoming staff and delicious food.

We had:
Veggie Chinese Mabo-tofu
Brown rice topped with spicy sauce, veggie meat and fluffy tofu + miso soup + Korean style salad + deli (mushrooms, beansprouts, eggplant, radish). Everything was nicely seasoned. I actually like my rice more salty than plain, so I was pleasantly surprised. Mabo really good, sweet and spicy.

The fried soy meat plate
Browned rice + miso soup + 3 assorted deli (quinoa, eggplant, mushrooms). Very good portion for the price. Soy meat juicy and crispy, slightly on a salty side but still delicious.

We've also ordered Soy meat fry with Korean soy sauce, because we thought it would be different than the one from soy meat plate. It was the same. We didn't mind ending up with double portion, as it was really good. The sets are well balanced, so be careful if you want to order additional things, as we nearly exploded!

Pros: All vegan, Delicious, Amazing atmosphere

Winner, winner, Karaage Dinner

Fully Vegan Restaurant in Shibuya.
Makiko recommended the karaage teishoku which is probably the fried soy meat Plate

The atmosphere here is a unique charm in itself, with a wonderfully weathered and old-school feel. The staff is incredibly friendly, adding to the welcoming vibe.

What I ate:
- The fried soy meat plate w/ three assorted deli brown rice miso soup

The three assorted deli seemed to be pickled radish, pickled cabbage and eggplant in a sweet and spicy sauce. Trust me, these were pure magic, especially when paired with the brown rice. The flavors danced together beautifully.

On the flip side, the Miso soup was on the lighter side, lacking a punch in terms of ingredients.

But let's talk about the Karaage—it deserves a standing ovation. Topped with grated daikon radish and served alongside a fresh salad, this might just be the best fried soy meat I've ever laid my taste buds on. This was probably the closest to fried Chicken, nailing it in terms of texture, taste, and aroma.

Definitely worth a visit, especially if you're on the hunt for authentic Karaage, and it's a great way to experience the less touristy side of Shibuya.

Mom and pop vegan comfort food

Mom and pop vegan restaurant that offerS yummy vegan comfort food. I had their vegan karaage set with all the sides and banana caramel cake. Bonus: quiet side of Shibuya. This is a good place to visit.

Good value for what you get…

I tried the fried soy meat dinner special tonight which came with a miso style soup, brown rice and an assortment plate of sides, sort of like a Korean banchan. It was a decent amount of food for the price. I would just say that while the fried soy meat was delicious and I did finish every bite, it was a bit saltier than I prefer. The restaurant space is a bit small in customary Tokyo fashion. But, the staff was really nice.

Pros: Good value for amount of food , Nice staff

Cons: Small restaurant space

Still the Best

Reopened after being closed by covid check their socials for summer hours and last minute closures. Blessings; same old staple, karaage in a little room with Lou Reed on the speakers only 10 mins west of Shibuya crossing.

Absolutely delicious and very filling

Had a large plate full of food from their deli counter accompanied by some sticky rice, soup and a mushroom dish. Lovely chocolate cake to finish. Wherever you are in Tokyo it is worth the visit to this restaurant near the centre of Shibuya

Cosy place but the food was overly salty

I really wanted to like this place but I couldn't believe how salty the food was when I went. I don't usually find food to be overly salty but my lips were puckering after eating the karaage lunch set.

The service was excellent and it's a small restaurant that seems to be doing all the right things. I hope it was just an off day for them (and I think so as all the other reviews rate this place highly).

I probably wouldn't visit again just from this experience and knowing that there's loads of other vegan places in Tokyo to try.

Pros: All vegan , Friendly service , Great texture of karaage

Cons: Soo salty

I went 2 months ago and ordered the karaage plate as well and it was like you said, totally overly salty!! I thought it was an error (maybe putting salt twice the quantity by mistake ?) and didn't say anything to the staff, but now I can see it didn't happen to me only !!

One of the best karaage

The lunch set is honestly really big for a super affordable price and all of it was delicious. It came with fried soy meat, salad, brown rice, soup, and Japanese pickles. I was a big fan of the karaage especially. Even the rice was well seasoned and good to eat on its own!

Great find

A short walk but so worth it. Relaxed vibe, can sit at Japanese or western style tables. Staff were absolutely lovely. Food was really great with lots of different flavours. Brown rice not white which I’m a fan of.

Lunch inspired by different asian cuisines

The lunch sets were great. Everything was tasty. The dishes are inspired by difficult asian cuisines. Unfortunately, they started sending people away around two saying that lunch was sold out. Best to be there early.

The food was healthy and fresh but small portions and nothing mind-blowing in terms of flavour. The space is really cute though!

10/10- simply delicious

This is a must-visit restaurant when you are around Shibuya. We both came away feeling very happy and full. We ordered two different lunch menu sets and some sweets- a banana bread and chocolate cake.

Good vegan food

Small, unassuming space in a residential neighborhood near Shibuya Station.
I went for the Curry Plate with half a serving of fried soy meat on the side and a chocolate cake as dessert.
Very delicious.

Well-priced, delicious and balanced food in a cozy shop

Favorite vegan place in Tokyo so far, for a lunch set and nice beverage it was around 1600 yen. Cozy spot in a quiet neighborhood walking distance from Shibuya. Only tried the recommended set so far (the fried soy, which was seasoned to perfection in a way similar to Taiwanese salt/pepper fried chicken) but will definitely go back many times and try everything. You can also get takeout and homemade cookies there.

Cozy, Homemade Vegan

Nagi Shokudo is one of the best vegan restaurants in town! I paid a visit for lunch in December right before the Christmas, and was relieved that they hadn't yet closed for the holidays.

The restaurant itself is kept quite hidden as it is lower than street level. You just need to look out for the signage they put out to guide customers to the proper spot. The cafe has small individual tables as well as an elevated Japanese mat seating. You can also see into the kitchen to see your food being prepared.

Their lunch sets go for ¥1200 and are quite creative. I went with their winter exclusive Bean Curd Soup Set which comes with brown rice and a variety of side dishes, some of which were really tasty! The creamy kombu broth was excellent and was literally a heart warming meal.

I also ordered a side of their Korean Soy Karaage (¥800), since I was feeling spicy. A lot of vegan restaurants offer soy karaage and what they prepared here was just as good as anywhere else. I didn't quite get 'Korean' from their karaage as I was expecting some kind of gochujang sauce that they'd toss with the soy meat. Alas, it was still good.

Definitely stuffed after the meal so no desserts for me this time. However, this was an incredible lunch and I would definitely come back the next time I'm in town.

Pros: Seasonal sets

Would like to ask if you may know if this restaurant has any online contact method? I am a vegetarian who can't eat onions and garlics, want to ask if any items will be suitable. As I can't speak Cantonese, ask by phone call will be hard to explain above. Thanks! Just try by luck and have a ask, thanks!

Hi there! They might have an online social media page that you can message and ask. Based on what I had, they can easily sub out pungent roots. It’s common in East Asian vegan cuisine to leave these out or have a menu without that, so you shouldn’t have any issues. Good luck!
