Japanese restaurant ever!

The ramen was light not heavy on oils with the right amount of veggies and noodles. The specialty rolls were outstanding all were amazing but the one that stood out the most was leahi roll earthy, light and refreshing.

This place is packed every night so definitely make a reservation a week in advance or sit at the bar if it's full.

It's hip, modern, with nice moody atmosphere

Best Japanese sushi rolls and ramen! Everything was super good and it's rare to come across a ramen that isn't super heavy or greasy yet still tasty.

Not a fan of the bao bun here the bread was dry and crumbled and just simply not a fan of the fake meats in general although it did taste really good I probably wouldn't get it again.

Other than that it was so good we came back the next day and the place was closed without notice.

There were 10 other ppl waiting outside ready for their reservation yet no sign of it being open. for the next couple of days we tried again since we really wanted to eat here and the closed sign was still up
It was a big bummer since ppl were still showing up for their reservations.
Not sure when I'll be back in Hawaii but so far this is the #1 vegan Japanese restaurant ive tried.

Closes without warning

We made a reservation on yelp and everything. Once we showed up, we saw it was closed. Called and the VM confirmed it should be open T-Sat 4:30-9p and it sure wasn’t. Two cars showed up behind us also disappointed while we all googled a new place for date night.

They did post on insta that they would be closed 9-16 October. They posted it a week prior to their close date. It is super annoying that they forgot to shut off yelp 😬 I’ve noticed every place in Hawaii updates Instagram better than anything & there are sooo many places that close without warning 🫠

Excellent

Had dinner here last night with my omni partner. Seated quickly though the space filled up shortly after (consider making a reservation). Everyone was kind and helpful navigating the menu. We ordered beet salad, gyoza, avocado nigiri, philly roll their specialty rolls The Wedge and Pacifica. Everything was absolutely delicious!

All vegan, nice vibe, and reasonably priced! Tried the gyoza, plus a few rolls. My favorite was the Wedge roll.

Unique and Delicious

We were able to get an early reservation on Yelp and the food was worth the wait. It was a quick $15-ish Uber ride from our Waikiki hotel. Quick service and authentic vegan sushi!

My favorite restaurant

If you live in Honolulu you know that finding good vegetarian or vegan places to eat out is so hard! While Tane is a little bit on the fancy/pricey side, it’s worth every penny!

They have a good variety of completely vegan Japanese food, with the main attraction being vegan sushi (how cool is that)! They also have amazing vegan ramen, tempura, katsu, and more. Their garlic edamame is soooo fire!

Excellent Sushi

With a Japanese completely Vegan menu you can’t go wrong! Tane is a favourite of mine and my friends, and a winner with my non-vegan friends as well! If you’re a vegan on Oahu it’s an absolute must try!

Pros: Menu, Atmosphere, Service

A Remarkable Vegan Treasure

Love, love, love this vegan gem in Honolulu. I never go to Oahu without eating there. Phenomenal flavors in every dish, plus very knowledgeable and friendly servers, keep me coming back for more.

Wow, fantastic vegan food

Love this place. Had two shared plates, Brussel sprouts and Tempura, both wonderful. Brussel sprouts were in a spicy sauce (not too spicy) and Tempura was very good. Had two appetizers, the spring rolls which were amazing (orange sauce was out of this world) and Gyoza (pot stickers). Also had grilled mushrooms shared plate, and oh goodness the BBQ flavoring was amazing. Had iced tea and lemonade, both great. Vegan cheesecake wonderful

Amazing restaurant

Our family with 5 members from age 7 to 80 all enjoyed Tane Vegan’s food A Lot! They provide wonderful dining environment, clean and good space. Food is creatively prepared with many surprises including couple kinds of edible flowers. They also provide a special menu for customers who are allergic to garlic and onion. We specifically love Mango nigiri, Ewa and Leahi.

Pros: All vegan dishes!, Creativity , Friendly service

450 dollar sushi order

So I was in oahu for my wedding in a house I rented with 18 non vegans. I wanted to try everything on the menu and feed my friends. It was epic and so worth the money best vegan sushi ever. It was great to get fancy rolls, rather than plain Jane ones. I did do take out so I can't really say much about the so restaurant but it looked super fancy and I will definitely go next time I'm here. I wish I took a picture of the whole order at the beginning but I forgot because I was excited to eat.

Pros: Fancy rolls , Quick

Sushi heaven

Lots of great sushi options! They also have ramen and very interesting Share Plates (the tane katsu was insane!).

For 4 people, we pigged out and the bill was reasonable.

I suggest speaking with the server to ensure that you're ordering Specialty Rolls with complimentary flavor profiles. You don't want to order rolls that are too similar to each other.

phenomenal flavors

I’d been to the sister restaurant in SF and was stoked to try Tane Vegan when I visited Oahu. Everything we tried was delicious! Loved the rolls, very cool vibe, just bummed there weren’t desserts the night we went. Will definitely come back next time we’re on Oahu.

Pros: Delicious flavors, Interesting menu, Cool vibe

Cons: Minimal dessert options , Expensive

Crushingly good.

We had a fantastic dinner here. As a large group, we sampled quite a bit of the menu, from the appetizers and the small plates to ramen and signature rolls. Everything was expertly crafted, service was quick and helpful. I’d go back any time. Nice selection of sake to boot.

Super Sampler

We didn't make a reservation, but were able to sit at the bar. We ordered a few items, ate, and then ordered a few more. All of them were served quickly. The miso soup had a flavorful broth. The Gyoza (pan-fried vegetable and tofu dumplings) were tasty. Our server recommended The Wedge-a tempura roll with spicy tofu, mushroom, green onion, ichimi, sesame, spicy aioli, and sweet soy. I was worried it would be spicy, but it wasn't. The enoki nigiri had a strong flavor and slimy consistency I did not like, but I did enjoy the gobo nigiri. The Shizen Shiitake was deep-fried with a slightly sweet sauce. The Tane Katsu (marinated garlic shoyu patty, panko, mix greens, and carrots) was served with a similar sauce. The Futo Maki (age tofu, spinach, shiitake, kanpyo, inari, and pickled radish) was so large, it was difficult to eat. Overall, I enjoyed 7/8 of the dishes.

Tip: Make a reservation online to avoid waiting.

Pros: all vegan, quick service

Cons: can be busy, difficult to find parking
