What a find! Have a traditional Izakaya experience in Tokyo. Located in Shibuya in the parco building basement. The food is incredible with good size portions and very well priced.

Superb place. - Edit
Izakaya style all vegan. Outstanding place with lovely staff. それはごちそうでした。
Read moreThe mapo map tofu was spicey but nuanced. The fried broccoli was delicious. Karrage lemon and onion was lovely, as was the Szechuan flavour. Try the beans also, they were so flavorful.
We also had a miso as part of a rice set with some spiced pickles that was delicious. Vegan wines and beer also available and it’s reasonable in size although they also have a wait list outside for busy times. One of the top vegan meals we have had in Japan. X
Pros: All the food was delicious, It’s very reasonably priced like an Izakaya , Beautiful people.

amazing! - Edit
We had a very nice experience at Izakaya Masaka, the food was delicious. Personally, I am not the biggest fan of fried vegetables so I did not try these but everything else we had was very good! My non vegan boyfriend was amazed; almost more than me!

Yummy! - Edit
We shared Karaage (Yuzu pepper and Terimayo), fried broccoli and Mapo Tofu - all dishes were really tasty. Ordering via smartphone was very easy and the food came quickly. Staff was friendly, too. Will definitely go again to try other dishes.

Izakaya option worth checking out - Edit
Seeing as there aren't a ton of vegan izakaya, I'd say this one is worth checking out. We liked the cucumber salad a lot. The gyoza and spicy karaage were just okay (I'd try a different karaage flavor next time as our was kind of dry). Reasonably priced and they'll also give you a 10% discount for their new branch in Kyoto (at the time of writing)

Great little spot with japanese ambience - Edit
Bamboo, spicy kara age - delicious.
Read moreMapo tofu - ok if you like soft tofu
Cashew ice cream - divine (other flavours were also good, but I recommend trying this one even if this flavour wouldn’t normally intrigue you)
Was told that other types of kara age were also good but that the spicy one was the best

It reminded me of dining at a typical izakaya I used to go, but this time with a fully vegan menu to choose from.

Great little place, heavy on deep-fried - Edit
Great place. We are here right now, everything is delicious, even the non-vegan family enjoys it. We had the Mapo Tofu, Tempura green beans, deep-fried Shiitake mushrooms, spicy potato wedges, and Gyoza. Much of it is deep fried, but that's probably what kara-age is. #Veganuary
Read morePros: Great food, everyone enjoyed it , Quick service , Very central, in the heart of Shibuya
Cons: Too much deep-fried, Too much salt

INCREDIBLE Karaage! - Edit
I went for lunch and had a serve of 6 gyoza (¥800) and 4 Szechuan karaage (¥850), for a total of ¥1650 which I thought was justified given the quality of the food.
Read moreThere were a variety of other karaage flavours but I was feeling like some spice today and they certainly delivered with the Szechuan karaage! The karaage was super crunchy on the outside, moist on the inside, had spectacular spices and flavour, and a lovely textured “chicken” inside (which I suspect is some variety of soy product). It came with a side of shredded cabbage (or perhaps it was lettuce?) to help wash down my tears of the delicious spiciness.
The gyoza was also exceptionally good, with a lovely slightly-charred bottom for a bit of crunch; the top was nice and soft to accentuate and complement the crunchiness.
If you’re even slightly interested in karaage, I can’t recommend this place higher!!
Food aside, the staff were very polite and professional. The dining area was VERY small, with roughly 8-10 tables in total so don’t sleep on this place?
Pros: Karaage
Cons: Limited dining area so might have to wait

Best Vegan Karaage I've had in Japan - Edit
This is nice to find after walking plenty in the busy streets of Shibuya. This is located in the Parco depato, in their chaos food court near the toilets (there is a map of the stalls on the east side if you get stuck). This is a small place, but at least you have an idea how long you might be waiting as you can clearly see inside and there is a waiting list by the entrance. They also have seats for those on the list. If you come in between late lunch and early dinner, you may not need to wait long. The downside is that a lot of the menu items were sold out when I went for late lunch. But I got to try their mapo tofu (which I've never had before). It was nice. I also had the fried mushrooms which was amazing, and of course, sichuan Karaage. It was sooo delicious! And the texture of the non-meat was great! I've tried a handful of Karaage at other vegan places and this is the best for me. Even after refrigerating.
Read morePros: The food, Clear expectations on wait time
Cons: A lot of sold out items for late lunch
