Great veggie Remen

hard to find ramen in Tokyo. This place is easy to go and test so good. But if you not eat garlic, onion you must they them.

Pros: price ok. test ok.

Cons: small shop.

Best vegan ramen in Tokyo

I've been looking for great vegan ramen in Tokyo for a while; the search is over. T's Tantan is officially the champion! Good selection of options (after 11am - though still good before) at very reasonable prices. The soya meat is fantastic and there's not too much, the soup is just how I remember (from before I turned vegan), and the noodles taste very fresh; I can't say enough how good this was.

Only slight downside is location: you have to plan your visit to coincide with a trip to or from Tokyo station (it's on Keiyo street - follow signs for the Keiyo line), as it's behind the ticket barriers.

Pros: Best vegan ramen in Tokyo, Do I need to say anything else?

Cons: Location (slightly)

Noisy but tasty!

The food was very good! It's located inside the busy Tokyo station so there's often a line to get in but it's worth it.

Remarkable Ramen!

I couldn't believe my luck finding T's Tantan so quickly in Tokyo Station. Incredibly delicious food and lovely staff. English menu but order confidently as everything is vegan!

I was moved when I walked in

We went to Tokyo Station specially to have lunch at T's Tantan and it was totally worth it (I found it thanks to Happycow.com) Anyone who is strictly vegan and has been to Japan -and doesn't speak the language- knows how hard it is to find vegan food at restaurants. I would actually call it impossible.

We were able to find the restaurant quite easily thanks to HappyCow and the user's reviews (thanks!) so don't forget: The restaurant is INSIDE the station, DO NOT EXIT THE STATION!

Upon entering the restaurant, both my husband and I were deeply moved and tears came to our eyes. Walls are covered with phrases such as "We live to eat vegetables" and explanations of all the things that can be made with Soy and how T's Tantan does not use ANY animal products (all in English, phew!). So this was very positively shocking and really touched us!

The food was REALLY GOOD! One of the premises they have, as stated in their website, is that they like to show to Japanese people that their traditional dishes can be made deliciously without using animal products. Well, I've never tried Ramen made with fish or pork, but I can tell you it was AMAZING! We had a set that consisted of a big bowl of Ramen (and I mean BIG) plus a small portion of rice with curry. The menu is not very wide, they have a set amount of Ramen variations and curry (more spicy, less spicy...) but I can assure you, you will love everything they serve!

We will most definitely return!!

Pros: DELICIOUS FOOD!, Very good price, Instructs people about veganism!

Cons: No dessert

Fantastic Ramen!

The reviews are true, T's たんたん is amazing. We had a bit of trouble finding the place. It's located on the first floor in a section of Tokyo Station near the South Yaesu exit known as "Keiyo Street". You have to either go through the ticket gates paying a "platform fare" or on your way to/from the JR lines, Shinkansen or Keiyo line. It's worth the bit of searching to find this culinary gem.

Tasty tantan

During my stay in Tokyo I headed here several times because the food and service was consistently very good and they even accepted payment by debit card. You can get a medium-sized bowl of ramen (I like the spicy hot peanut ones) for Y900 and add a small side (the soy meat and rice is fine) for Y300 plus I'd sometimes add an iced tea for Y400. That's a bit pricey but the ramens are very tasty, especially the hot and very hot ones. I noticed that the sinus-cleansing hot ones must be popular with some of the local Japanese customers who were audibly blowing their noses (usually a big no-no in a Japanese restaurant)!

Pros: Spicy, variety of flavours, Prompt and friendly service, Vegan commitment

Maravilloso

Una gran experiencia. Menú exquisito y en gran cantidad. Bien de precio. Carta en inglés, aunque camareras no hablan mucho inglés. Difícil de encontrar, dentro de la estación de Tokio en el Jr ir a la calle Keiyu dentro del metro, al fondo del todo está el restaurante. Vale la pena

Pros: Food, Price, Quality y atencion

Cons: difícil de llegar, Poca variedad , No hablan mucho inglés

Best ramen ever!

This is the best ramen I have ever had, vegan and non-vegan. The noodles are tender and the broth so hearty. I could eat more of these if I could. Even omnivores give it two thumbs up!

The place is small so the wait can be long but the service is fast so the wait is not too long.

Pros: excellent ramen, fast service

Cons: there's a wait sometimes

BEST PLACE IN TOKYO

This is the best ramen I've ever had! It's also one of the best places to eat in Tokyo. I always end up getting the T's Tan Tan Ramen with deep fried sweet chili soy meat and rice. It fills me up, it's amazing and I just love it there. And it's also inside Tokyo Station so unless you're leaving the station it won't cost you anything to get there!

Pros: Best ramen, Tasty soy meat, Completely vegan

Doesn't disappoint!

The reviews say it all!

The set is worth getting and if you're worried about not being full, opt to get the large noodle bowl for an extra 100yen, I was very content after eating here.

Will be my go to when I'm back in Tokyo!

Pros: Speedy service, Delicious food, English menus

Convenient Location and Good Price

I was really surprised to see at least two vegan options in Tokyo Station. This place is an excellent all vegan ramen shop with curry options available. I got the spicy ramen and curry set. Altogether it came to about 1300 yen. I left feeling full which was rare for me in Japan. The Curry was especially delicious, I can't remember the type but it was also the spicy one.

Although it's a small restaurant there's a lot of seating available

Pros: Great Price and Portions, Delicious Food

Great ramen in central location

Nice place with filling bowls of ramen that were very tasty. We also ordered a sticky sweet soy dish with rice on the side: don't know if it was healthy, but it was certainly well appreciated after a long day of exploring Tokyo. I would definitely return to this place as I haven’t found that many other places throughout Japan where I was able to eat veggie Ramen.
We followed some signs for Keiyo Street inside the station and were able to find it alright.

Ramen & Rice Joint

This spot should be called the Ramen & Rice Joint. Nestled in Tokyo Station the family and I raced up the steps in pursuit of this highly praised noodle spot. Since food was scarce at Tokyo Disney we destroyed our noodle bowls and brown rice curries. The spices and flavors awoke the taste buds and left us fully satiated. For this reason each table is provided a tall jug of ice water. We basically went with Bok Choy noodle bowls devoid of the fake/fried soy meats which are not healthful. The cheapest dish is 750yen which makes this spot an excellent value when a quick noodle dish is needed on the go. Fyi, they don't serve salads as the description stated.

Pros: excellent flavors, quick and easy , good pricing

Cons: too many fake, fried meats

Cheap and cheerful vegan ramen

This is well located and has good opening hours. The vegan ramen is very tasty and filling and starts at 750 yen which is very reasonable. Best defined as a truly Japanese 'fast food' vegan place.

Thank god for Tan Tan!!! :-)

I adore T's TanTan...it really is a go-to place for me when in Tokyo, as it's a no brainer vegan place that I know of and can easily find - super convenient! I lost count of the number of times I ate there during my last trip to Tokyo (maybe 3-5 times a week)and I think I've tried everything on the menu. So nice to be able to finally eat vegan ramen and not have to worry about any animal products being used. I love the miso ramen, shoyu ramen and the tan tan men (it has little to no liquid in it).... as well as the smile curry and aubergine side dish. It's very reasonably priced for Tokyo and if you order a set, you will be stuffed! It's like eating 2 meals for me. When I'm not in Japan, I really crave vegan ramen from Tan Tan and you can bet it'll be the first place I eat at when I get back to Tokyo! :-)

an absolute MUST for authentic vegan japanese

located right in japan central train station, which is a MUST GO for all vegans. it's located on keio street and tucked away in a corner so a little tough to find but once you know where it is, it's easy.

the sweet and sour soy meat was brilliant and caused a long running argument on what was better, this or the soy meat at ain soph journey, between me and my boyfriend that is still debated 6 months later

as for the mains, it was so great to have authentic vegan ramen as a lot of the best vegan food in japan seems to be western food! we went about 4 times on our trip and tried most of the options which were all great in different ways.

they also sold the packets of dried soy meat to take home, so we bought some to try and recreate the experience when we returned to england.

Pros: great location, authentic japanese food, affordable

Cons: past the barriers on the platform

Absolutely superb ramen with their signature peanut based soup is delightful. The side dish I had was fried soy chicken which had a fantastic sauce. Large queue outside reflects the popularity of the place, and rightfully so.

This was our favorite place in Tokyo. We loved the miso ramen, and the sweet and sour chicken. We ate here twice, and there was a queue both times. They are incredibly efficient. Water picture left at your table, check left with your order. Great location in Tokyo station.
