Délicieuses Ramen

Je suis allée chez T's Tantan au retour de Disney Sea, parfait comme ça fermait tard! La location est idéalement placée, facile à trouver et les plats étaient délicieux! Une super adresse vegan que je recommande vivement :)

Pros: Délicieux , Emplacement , Prix correct

My favourite ramen!

My favourite ramen that I tried whilst in Japan, glad I got to go twice! Big restaurant with plenty of seats and nice staff 😁 had the Tantan rice bowl, golden sesame ramen, and lots of gyozas!

An Overhyped Letdown

We were disappointed. The menu allows substituting ramen with yuzu noodles for a gluten-free option, but the portion was shockingly small, even with added rice. The regular ramen itself tasted just okay. However, the restaurant does cater well to vegans, including Buddhist vegans who avoid the "5 pungent vegetables," and they provide a helpful allergen table for each dish. T's TanTan at Narita Airport T2 is so much better in terms of menu variety, atmosphere, and overall taste.

Pros: Provides allergen information, Caters to Buddhist or oriental vegans

Cons: Tiny portion size

Not overrated

I used to see the long lines and think this place was an overrated tourist trap, but dang it’s actually really good! Small limited menu (just two drink options) but great restaurants are like that.

Best vegan Ramen I had in Japan

Alot of places in japan that offer a vegan Ramen always use a plain veggie broth that leaves more to be desired... but not this place!! Their broths are amazing!! We ended yo coming back here many times when the Ramen craving hit and they also have the best gyoza I have ever had! It's a must stop for every vegan in Tokyo

The best!

This had to be the best ramen I’ve ever had in my life. The flavors were so well blended I didn’t even need my customary hot sauce. The gyozas were so good they disappeared into my belly like magic!

There is also a small very limited shop in the international terminal at Narita airport inside security near the 50 gates. It’s not listed on the screens for food but it is there.

Nice place to enjoy a good bowl of ramen with friends/ family

Honestly, it was a little hard to find as Tokyo station is quite huge and crowded but it was worth it. We went at around dinner time and it was packed. Had to wait about 25 minutes or so to get seated.

Ordered the most recommended golden sesame tantan with vegetable gyoza. The food was so good. It was my first try at trying vegan ramen, so have no reference as to what to expect but for me, it was so good. The portion size is nice and quite filling too

Pros: Service, Portion size, Taste

Cons: Wait time, Finding the location

Low price, very tasty

We went for the golden and black sesam tantan this time, and it was sooo good. Very filling, very tasty. The atmosphere in the cafe is a bit bland, but it is what you make of it.

The food is worth it and very cheap for what we got.

The best vegan Ramen on my trip in Japan

I've tried every Ramen dish on their menu. The Yuzu Ramen and especially the golden sesam Ramen were a 10 out of 10! After many vegan Ramen on my trip in Japan I'd say that T's Tantan offers one of the best (if not the the best) Ramen in Japan.

Delicious ramen!

I had a yuzu ramen, it was delicious! But it’s very light, if u like a heavier one, maybe tan tan men is better😄
Gyoza was really delicious!!
The place was hard to find, you have to go inside of the ticket gate😊

Overrated?

There are plenty of good vegan options in Tokyo, but I found this place to be overrated as I feel they could improve the food quality. However, Tokyo Station doesn't offer many vegan alternatives, so it's convenient nonetheless.

Tried before our train trip to Osaka

As the previous reviewer stated, this place is good, but not mind blowing. We found it a bit light on flavour. My partner had the Black Sesame ramen and I had the Ponzu ramen. Both were good. The dumplings were good, but we’ve had better of both in several places on this trip. The ponzu ramen was a bit like chicken noodle soup, whereas the sesame was a little more robust and slightly spicy. The Black sedan ramen had (I think) yam noodles. They didn’t absorb any of the broth.

But all the ordering was done on the iPad, so it was easy. You do get chargers some 100¥ fee on there. No idea what for specifically. Would def eat there again if I was waiting for a train, but would not go out of my way to eat there.

Pros: Fast service , Easy to order, Decent food

Cons: Lacks flavour, Not easy to find

Convenient but over-rated

In the weeks leading up to arriving in Tokyo, all I heard from other vegans was T’s Tan Tan for vegan ramen. I arrived in Tokyo Station and was excited to swing by for lunch before finding my lodging. The ramen was good but it honestly wasn’t great. I had better ramen at at least two different places in Kyoto.

I tried the black sesame ramen. It was pleasantly spicy but light on toppings (mostly broth and noodles). The noodles were okay but not mind-blowing. I added the soy meat char sui and I liked it a lot but it was kind of greasy; I felt similarly about the gyoza I tried.

My dining companion got the curry and enjoyed it but felt similarly. It was good but not amazing. He also ordered the vegan cheese and found it weird.

Service is very fast and done by iPad so there’s no language barrier. If you’re waiting for a train it’s not a bad choice at all, but I would definitely not pay for a platform ticket just to try this place, and I’m a little baffled by how many people said they ate here every day while in Tokyo. Even a vegan guidebook I bought stressed this place above all others, and I don’t really get it.

Maybe I would have liked it more if I hadn’t heard so much hype?

Fantastic Vegan Ramen

Look no further for vegan ramen than here at T's Tan Tan, one of the coveted spots for plant-based folks and those exploring.

HUGE Note: just like it's sister location in Ueno, you must pass through the ticket gates in order to access T's Tan Tan.

Since this is located inside Tokyo Eki, you might experience a bit of a wait. I waited about 10 minutes in line as a solo diner before being seated. There are a lot of Japanese and international folks dining here, so you're going to listen in on a lot of different languages.

I ordered their current special set which was their take on Thai Khao Soi and included a little cheesy rice bowl you can create using the broth after the noodles were done. I also got a side of their gyoza because they were great at the Ueno location.

As expected, the food here is great. Ramen quality if top notch and their rotating specials lived up to expectations. For less than ¥2000, you're going to have a great meal and know it's fully vegan.

Despite the annoyance of needing to enter through the JR gates, it's worth it on a stopover to your next destination. I'd plan to drop by for a meal if you're transiting between two different points on the JR line so it doesn't feel like you're wasting money just to gain access.

Pros: Great and plentiful options

Cons: Inside Tokyo Station - need ticket to enter

Quick Meal Inside Tokyo Station!

We came across T’s TanTan based inside Tokyo Station. It’s a great place to eat when stopping by at Tokyo Station or transferring there (please note, it’s inside the station past the gate.) We tried the classic Tan Tan Ramen and a Soy Meat Bowl with Gyoza. No reservations are available so there was a queue to get in.

Pros: Good Food , Good Location

Cons: Bit Loud

Good but not the best

The ramen are very good but unfortunately they are not the best ;)
There was quite a long waiting time (even though this is normal in Tokyo).
The food was nevertheless tasty.

Convenient option in Tokyo station

This is a convenient option inside Tokyo Station (it's inside the subway paid area)
I loved the gyozas and the Golden sesame tantan. I also ordered take out once and the service was pretty fast. The staff was nice and helpful.

Pros: Great food, Quick service, Helpful staff

Cons: Might need to line up during peak hours

Classic one, don’t miss it

Had the golden sesame ramen and my boyfriend the curry. Also some gyzo. Can recommend everything. I came here 4 times :)
A little annoying is that it’s hard to find and INSIDE the station. You have to use you suica card and pay in and out. But definitely worth it
