Great spot for a vegan burger - Edit
My husband and I had the cheese burger, fries and beer. I personaly never had a vegan burger so tasty. The place its cozy, food great. A bit pricey, but worth it. Thank you Happy Cow!

Excellent place! - Edit
As a vegetarian in Tokyo, variety is not the spice of my life, but this place gives me a nice variety and I don't have to worry about whether or not what I'm eating is vegetarian. I pop into ain.soph ripple whenever I'm in Shinjuku and recommend it to whoever I can, vegetarian or not. It's got a nice atmosphere, friendly staff, and great food. I'm fond of the falafel burger, but their chicken burger is also fantastic. I'm currently working my way through the menu to find my favorite. If you're getting takeout, give it a little time - so don't be in a rush! And, yes, it is a little on the pricey side (about 800-1000yen for just the burger), but that tends to be the price of a decent burger joint anywhere and since I grab a burger every two weeks or so, I don't mind paying a little extra for good, vegan food.
Read morePros: great food! and big portions, nice atmosphere and clean facility, friendly staff (and english-speaking)
Cons: sometimes can be a while waiting for takeout, a little pricey

delicious food but a bit pricey - Edit
The burger and burrito are delicious. Cute little vegan cafe feel. One star off because ¥1,200 for a burger is a little pricey (¥200 extra for a side of fries). The best vegeburger in Japan was Morphos Cafe in Kyoto at ¥800 with a side of wedges.

Great vegan burgers! - Edit
In a country where it's very difficult to find truly vegetarian or vegan food, it was great to find this little place. The cheeseburger and fries were excellent!

Favorite Vegan Food in Tokyo - Edit
Can't recommend this place higher. Like all the Ain Soph restaurants they have some of the best vegan food I've ever had, which means even more considering Tokyo hasn't been the best place for vegans to live. The prices are a little high, but it's understandable for probably all the work and imports they have to have for this place to work. Also, love that they do takeout!

Delicious! - Edit
I had the cheeseburger and fries, and both were exactly what I was after. It's always great when a classic is executed so well. Not to mention it's so nice to walk into a restaurant and not worry about cross contamination. Will definitely be going back!

Amazing burgers - Edit
The falafel burger was amazing and the best burger I ever had in my life. The bun is extremely fluffy and the falafel is crispy and delicious. I also tried the chicken burger and it tasted like real chicken and it was kind of scary, but still good.
Read moreBecause of the amazing falafel burger I will come back to Tokyo sooner than expected, because I already miss it so much!!
Next to T's Tan Tan, Ripple is my favourite restaurant in Tokyo.
Pros: Friendly staff, fluffy buns, amazing falafel burger
Cons: Credit card payment only over ¥3000

needs more menu choices! - Edit
Same as previous commenter about disappointment at lack of non-fake meat stuff on the menu. falafel burger was good but maybe a bit overpriced for what it is. still, nutritious, filling, vegan food wont get too many complaints from me

Oishi! - Edit
This place is fantastic for vegans, vegetarians, or simply people interested in trying new flavors. The ripple soy chicken burger is “a must have” and the ripple cheese burger has a vegan cheddar cheese that is very oishi! It is a big pricier than other places, but this is because the food is healthier, less processed, and specialized since it is 100% vegan. As a vegan who has eater in more than 30 different vegan restaurants around the world, I can say this is one of the best burger places I have ever eater in the world!
Read morePros: taste, central location, very friendly
Cons: a bit pricy but worth it

Fake meat patty :( - Edit
I was a bit disappointed that most of the burger were made from fake meat patty. If you are vegetarian because you don't like the taste of meat like me, your choices will be quite limited. I had a falafel burger but I was really hopping for a grains or tofu patty so quite disappointed about this.

Nice place and excellent food - Edit
My first time to visit Tokyo and I was recommended to this place. I had a cheese burger, soup and herbal tea. The vegan beef patty was a little salty but overall is very delicious! I also bought snowball and cookie home. My family just love them!

Decent - Edit
We had a Burger and a Burrito, both perfectly acceptable but really nothing special. It was nice to have Western food for a change though. Service was good, place was fairly quiet when we arrived.
Read moreShared a dessert - french toast - it was filling and sweet but a bit too sloppy to really wow us.
We were in Shinjuku for a week and found this place towards the end. We probably would have been more than once but found that we preferred Ts TanTan and Lima Cafe more (or they were just more convieniently located for where we were at that time in the day). But it is hard to complain too much about any vegan restaurant in Japan so keep up the good work!
Pros: Modern, Some English spoken, Power sockets for customers
Cons: Not a huge variety, Desserts okay, Expensive beer

Glad it exists. - Edit
The place is small/cute/every seat has an outlet for charging your mobile device (major points, and an extra star). The salad was AMAZING, slightly grilled mixed veggies with quinoa and amazing dressing. Wish I had gotten the large, go big! However the "chiken" burger was slightly disappointing. Very massive/messy and way to much sauce. It was ok but just not my fave. The staff was friendly enough and they had a "tip" jar. I was strictly told never to tip in Japan bc it's offensive unless a high class Ryokan. I asked for water and never got it, not the end of the world, but I'm one of those people that won't ask twice. I should work on that.

Agree soy chicken burger is the best burger ! - Edit
Easy walk from shinjuku station area. Its not the restaurant on the corner its on same block just nextdoor to the corner restaurant. You will see funky wooden frontage. My partner tried the ripple burger and i had the chicken burger, i tried both and thought mine was the best. The sauce on it was so morish amd the bun so soft! First time ive tried soy meat and it was delicious. Try the beers too, funky labels. French fries yummy couldnt fault anything. Clean and staff friendly amd modern. Definitely come here.

Chicken burger is awesome. - Edit
I always go for the safe option when trying a new restaurant. I got the chicken burger minus the tartar sauce, and the vegan-cheese fries. I made the mistake of ordering them seperate instead of in a set, so I got waaaay more fries than I planned to eat, but they were yummy, so I scarfed them all down anyway. Lol. Atmosphere is homey, the music is good (urban, pop, alternative), and some of the staff speak perfect English. Seibu-Shinjuku station is kind of out of the way (but not terribly), but it's worth the trip if you're looking for yummy vegan food. Next time, I'll be trying the burrito. :)

Yes! Delicios! - Edit
Just ate here two dinners in two days.
Read moreI had Crispy Chicken burger and Fries with cheese sauce, and it was delicious.
Just one comment - if you do not like the taste of vegan cheese, as I do, avoid it. I was hoping for some new "asian" taste; bad luck. It tastes all the same all around the globe :)
On day two I had the same chicken again and on tops - “beef” burger – both delicious.
Thinking about it, the Chicken burger is hitting my TOP 3 Vegan burgers list...
I need more!
Omnomnomnomnom!
Pros: super nice and friendly staff, nice interior and outdoor seating, serving time +/- 10 minutes

Tasty. - Edit
We enjoyed the cheese burgers with cheese fries.
Read moreVery potatoy french fries, which one of us enjoy and the other does not. The cheese helped it go down the other persons hatch though.
Very friendly staff. Overall very pleased.
First come, first served basis, so you do not need to book a dinner table, which you have at the Journey restaurant.
