Delicious ramen

It is more limited than the Kyoto location but has exclusive menu. Outdoor seating is nice actually. Sparrows on the return dishes cart.

Yummy, but not worth the wait or the price

The ramen & dessert were alright and it’s obviously very conveniently located if you’re visiting teamLab before/after, but there’s always a long queue and not enough (roofed!) seats. The area is usually very crowded. It’s all outdoors, which sucks in case it’s raining.

Ramen was delicious

We were so excited that the food spot at TeamLabs Planets was all vegan. The miso ramen was the only ramen choice but that was totally okay as it was really delicious. The ice cream looked delicious too but the line was long and we didn’t want to order it at the same time as our ramen so we passed on them. It’s counter service so you’d have to get in a line to order anything after you’ve already ordered once.

Would definitely go again - if only it wasn’t so out of the way.

The best ramen I’ve ever had in my life!!

At first I though ¥1800 is a bit steep.
I ordered it anyway and it is so so incredible!!! 10/10 and I eat a lot of food!
Tried 2 ice creams too, very yum!

Pros: Ramen is the best in the world!!!

Worth the wait

A bit of a wait even lining up at opening time to be able to sit inside the cool illuminated interior. A ramen befitting an art museum; pretty but not over to top. The topping is more of a garnish, this ramen is really about the broth and the noodles, which is different from many vegan ramen I had. Extremely good. Ice cream was fine, very small portion and maybe not worth waiting around longer for.

Pros: Cool interior, Amazing ramen

Cons: Wait

Hi Nattata, Is it necessary to make a reservation to eat at the reversible rotation non objective space of the Vegan Ramen UZU??

I didn't make a reservation but I was there are opening (11am). Even being there when it opened I had to wait a bit because they were only serving people inside.

Yummy stew and noodles

It’s a Michelin star restaurant. I tried the miso ramen. It’s possible to have the experience inside the dark room, what was interesting.

Pros: Reasonable price, Delicious taste and good texture, Fast service

Cons: Maybe if it had some soy meat it’d be better

Good ramen, but in a very crowded setting

Two types of ramen available, the broth was veru succulent on both of them. Donuts were available for dessert.

Cons: Crowded with tourists and super busy

Top spot in the area

I loved the spicy miso ramen I had, very strong notes of Sichuan pepper corns so maybe try the other one if you don't like that feeling. No real seating outside especially as it was raining so that was a shame however the ramen was 10 out of 10. We also had the choc ice cream (yum) and the miso caramel, which I wasn't a fan of. Definitely one to have if you've just been to planet labs.

Not to be missed when visiting TeamLabs!

The indoor eating area is tucked in the ‘flower & gift shop’ - we almost missed it! Only 2 options for ramen, both were delicious (probably our favourite vegan ramen in Tokyo). Pricey but it’s an experience!

Great

Amazing that the offering at team labs was solely vegan and gave a really flavourful, yummy ramen. The only thing that was missing for me was that the ramens dont come with any protein so you are just having noodles and broth

Pros: Great visibility for vegans, Yummy

Cons: Only 2 options, Protein does not come with the ramen

nice ramen

2 kinds of vegan ramen, they tasted pretty good and broth was flavourful but only one topping. In busy times the wait can also be pretty long

Delicioso pero no cumple expectativas

Quizá el fallo sea nuestro por la publi de redes sociales y nombre del sitio, pero el espacio es muy pequeño, apenas caben para comer 8 personas y si tienes mala suerte como nosotros, te tocarán europeos alrededor que no respetan nada, solo ruido, mobiles con el brillo al máximo y nada zen, que por cierto, el objetivo de la experiencia es comer y meditar, en nuestro caso, imposible.

El ramen delicioso, pedimos ambos uno para cada uno y gustó más el spicy.

La ubicación del sitio malísima. La nota de 4* es por lo bueno que estaba.

Pros: Delicioso, Experiencia

Cons: Pequeño, Pocas opciones, Ubicación

Muy bueno pero no ha cumplido con las expectativas

El ramen está muy bueno y el espacio es increíble, sin duda. Aún así, esperaba algo más. El servicio fue un poco lento y el espacio pequeño. Tuvimos mala suerte, compartimos el espacio con una pareja muy ruidosa y una madre y su hija que también lo eran. Hicieron que la experiencia me resultara frustrante, ya que es un espacio para estar en silencio apreciando el alrededor. Lo recomiendo, pero controla tus expectativas si puedes.

Pros: Experiencia, Calidad

Cons: Caro, Espacio pequeño, Lento

Tasty ramen, a bit too expensive

The ramen is good (I tried the miso ramen), even though a little expensive, but I suggest to eat it at the outside tables. To eat it inside you have to pay an extra price, plus inside it’s dark and cramped and you have to wait a long time to get in. Good to have a vegan restaurant outside of team labs.

hands down the best ramen i’ve ever had. try the spicy one 100/10

Line goes fast, they’re open until 7 pm, takes about 20 mins to get your ramen but it’s totally worth it

Pros: everything is vegan, spicy and non spicy vegan ramen options

Cons: best 10 bucks i’ve ever spent

Best ramen we had in Tokyo

People complain about the weird inside experience but it’s at an art museum, so it completely makes sense and made our experience so much better! Loved the small, intimate, and artistic dining experience provided. Ramen was 10/10 and beer was refreshing. Next time, id love to sit outside on the fun endless bench!

Gimmicky but good ramen

This vegan ramen shop has two main options: the soy ramen soup and the miso ramen soup. Both are fine, but UZU seems to be more about the digital art attraction nearby than it is about good food. I wouldn’t go out of my way to visit this place.

really good ramen

I had the strawberry rhubarb ice cream and miso ramen. The ice cream was good. The ramen was really excellent. It had some sort of ingredient in it that was a bit numbing, which I wasn't familiar with. I think it might have been Szechuan pepper. I took my omni friends who were traveling through Japan and they said it was the best ramen they had on their trip. There was a bit of a wait to order/get the food just as it was a busy/crowded day.

Pros: Great quality, Interesting and unusual flavors

Awesome Rameb

We went there as a family today after visiting the team lab museum.
Kids loved the miso ramen and adults loved the miso spicy ramen. Flavorful with a rich soup and the right ingredients. Awesome!!!
Too bad it is a little far from where we live otherwise we would come back just to eat there.
For desert the kids had vegan ice cream and they also loved it.

Random Spot for Good Ramen

Vegan Ramen UZU hails from Kyoto with its Michelin star and has its own location conveniently next to the teamLab Planets exhibit. Funny enough - I was struggling to find a vegan friendly meal before our ticket time, but ended up seeing this right outside, which became out post-exhibit lunch.

We ordered their Soy Sauce Vegan Ramen and Spicy Miso Ramen (each costing ¥1320), each with its own homemade whole wheat noodles and fragrant broth. Both bowls didn't include too much else besides the noodles, broth, and a grilled tomato or onion slice respectively. The broth really carried the ramen in this case and it was a great way to end our visit to teamLab.

I also ordered a donut since it's always tough to find a vegan friendly dessert. The donuts were nothing special, all pre-packaged and too dry for my own good. I would skip out on these in the future.

Overall, really glad that UZU exists and was there just in the knick of time for me.

Pros: Great food outside TeamLAB

Cons: Donuts weren't the best

Delicious - but weird place

Let me start by saying this was the best ramen I’ve probably ever had in my life. I got the soy sauce ramen and it was garlicky and delicious. Sadly gotta take a star off cuz this place is kinda weird. I wanted a drink with my meal so they recommended I pay like $3 extra to eat inside. Overpriced but I did it cuz I was cold. Inside was its own art exhibit, where you basically eat in the dark with weird sounds playing. At least it was warm! Probably should have read other reviews first to know what I was walking into 😂

Pros: SO good

Cons: Paid indoor seating, otherwise outdoor , Weird indoor dining experience , Can get expensive

Worth stopping for lunch when at the museum

The food was very tasty and well crafted. Small, outdoor seating. 30 minute wait for ramen. Ice cream, donuts and iced tea, all very good.

Pros: Good ramen, Ice cream and donuts

Cons: Not quick., Outdoor seating. , Limited food options.

TeamLabs is awesome and so is Uzu Ramen

The immersive exhibition at TeamLabs is a must see - and eating the Vegan Ramen afterwards is the icing on the cake. Certainly one of the best Vegan Ramen I’ve eaten. We sat outdoors on a nice day which was great, didn’t check the small indoor room as my partner thought it would be disorienting.

Pros: One of the best Vegan Ramen ever, Great to eat after a visit to TeamLabs exhibit

Cons: Basic open air seating only (if you eat outside)
