Absolutely fabulous! - Edit
Ridiculously good food! Had the noodles, gyoza, and mock meat - easily the best noodles I ate in Tokyo.
Read moreTricky to find (Google Maps was a lifesaver), but absolutely worth the effort. Staff spoke enough English to be helpful and were very friendly.
If you’re willing to hunt for it, you’ll be rewarded with an exceptional meal.
Pros: Noodles, gyoza, mock meat, Friendly staff
Cons: Tricky to find

Amazing ramen & gyoza!! - Edit
We waited a little while as it was busy, but the turnover was quick and the food was worth the wait! The staff were helpful with trying to speak English. We had gyoza, the seasonal pink ramen and the golden Sesame ramen. Everything was delicious and good portions!

Casual, super tasty ramen - Edit
Whether you get something light like the yuzu or richer like sesame you can’t go wrong. It’s fully vegan so no option to add that egg for those who partake. They even have a really useful chart for allergies/ menu items.

A bit plain and too spicy - Edit
Except the spiciness ( of the ramen ) it was not a memorable experience.
Read moreIt’s maybe possible to ask for a non spicy ramen but we didn’t expected it to be spicy so we didn’t asked.

Delicious Seasonal Dish - Edit
I had the seasonal menu and it was delicious (gyozas, ramen with roots and rice w/ yoghurt).
Read moreIt was a little bit difficult to find although I had the directions from other members comments).
Since you need to go into the JR area I am wondering if you can avoid the fee associated with it (paid 150 yen going in/out the same station).

Fantastic as always - Edit
Directions: it’s in the Ecute building, which is within the JR ticketed area. If you get to the station by the Ginza line you’ll need to leave the station and go up the escalators/stairs
Read moreEvery Ts Tantan is a treat. This is the second largest of the three but it’s just as good as the other two. Fantastic ramen and sides. No notes.
(Be warned. There’s a small line on weekends. We visited on a Saturday at lunch and waited about 10 minutes)

Great food - Edit
Delicious food. I had the rice bowl with vegetable gyozas, soy meat, vegan cheese, and a small salad. They also have vegan ice cream on the menu.
Read moreService is fast and friendly.
You need to enter the station with a ticket or IC card to reach the restaurant (even if you're not boarding a train) but tickets are inexpensive.
Enter Ueno station through Park Gate (from Ueno Park), walk straight ahead and you'll soon see platform 8 to your right. The restaurant is next to it.

Best ramen I tried in Tokyo - Edit
Finding this spot was a bit of an adventure, but absolutely worth it. I’d recommend asking locals for directions. There was a long line, and I waited about 15-20 minutes to get seated, but once I ordered, the service was quick. The ramen was incredibly rich—a true flavor bomb—and the gyozas were just as amazing. Food was a 10/10! I’d definitely come back or try their other locations.

Good vegan food quaranteed - Edit
After having visited the other branch at Tokyo Station, I prefer it to Ueno, but the food was the same. (Tokyo Station felt like it had a bigger menu, but perhaps that is the illusion of a tablet vs. confusingly laid out printed menu.
Read moreHard to find if you enter the Ueno station in the "wrong" place, but worth the search and wait at the door if it's busy.
(It says "Ecute Ueno", which the information boards at the station show - but not How To Get There For Dummies; look to enter through "Park Gate", that is your best bet to not get lost in the maze since I could see it from the restaurant.)
Pros: Food tasted amazing
Cons: Cluttered menu

Very good ramens and gyozas - Edit
Very convenient location in the station, sometimes you will need to wait outside, but never a very long time.
Read moreThere is always a seasonal ramen, on three Tan-Tan (classic, black/gold sesame), a bowl, delicious gyozas, vegan ice creams include a matcha one.

Rice bowl ftw - Edit
I dream of this rice bowl when I am home in the USA. The vibe is cozy. The gyoza is tasty. I would wear a T’s Tantan tshirt.

Nice - Edit
I think this was nice, but honestly not anything special.
Read moreGetting the golden sesame with the added peanut butter is what saved the broth. I tried it prior it mixing and found it lacklustre.
The noodles were also pretty mushy.
Does not contain a protein which really disappointed me from a vegan restaurant!
Better spots in Tokyo (few I’ve reviewed on here) for a rich tantanmen style or a cleaner, clear broth ramen.
The gyoza was good though! Very flavourful.
Pros: Nice staff
Cons: Average tasting broth , Mushy noodles , No protein

worth the hassle - Edit
i got the white sesame ramen and it was really good! i thought the price was great, too. it can be tricky to find depending on where you are in ueno station. i recommend using the ueno park entrance because it’s a straight shot - just between platforms 8 and 9. i’d go again!
