Royal Host

On 3/4/2020, Royal Host released a curry that uses vegan curry sauce they’ve developed and manufactured. The press release is here. It specifically states that there are no animal ingredients included, but it’s prepared in the same kitchen and using the same frying oil as other items (containing animal ingredients). It also may have cross-contamination from manufacturing from various ingredients, including animal products.

•  Vegetable curry & rice with mixed grains/ベジタブルカレー＆雑穀ごはん

There are other items that appear from the allergen chart published 4/28/2020 to possibly be free of animal ingredients.

• Green salad/グリーンサラダ　(may have cross-contamination from egg and dairy)
• Rice/ライス
• Rice with mixed grains/雑穀ごはん　(may have cross-contamination from various animal ingredients. This looks like the same item that’s sold with the animal-ingredient free curry.)
• Morning salad/モーニングサラダ (on the a.m. menu) (may have cross-contamination from egg and dairy)
• Drinkable acai/飲むアサイー (on the a.m. menu)
• Child-sized french fries/おこさまフライドポテト
• Low-allergen child’s gateau chocolat/低アレルゲン おこさまガトーショコラ. The website states that wheat flour and egg are not used. Rice flour, soymilk, sugar, etc. are used.
• Low-allergen child’s small rice flour bread/低アレルゲン  米粉のぷちパン.

The gateau chocolat is the Friends Sweets brand. The product page lists ingredients here. The low-allergen bread is the Nippon Ham Round Bread/日本ハムまあるいパン. Details about the ingredients of the Nippon Ham Round Bread are given here.

Condiments:
• Mini ketchup/ミニケチャップ
• French mustard/フレンチマスタード
• Tabasco/タバスコ（3ml) 
• Fresh-Pressed Soy Sauce/しぼりたて生しょうゆ（10g）
• Deluxe Spicy Sauce/デラックスソーススパイシー（10g）
• Stick Sugar/スティックシュガー
• Balsweet (artificial sweetener)/パルスイート
• Slim Up Sugar/スリムアップシュガー
• Gum Syrup/ガムシロップ

In the Low-allergen child’s hamburger plate with rice bread or rice/低アレルゲン おこさまハンバーグプレート （米粉パン)/（ごはん）, the corn, broccoli, and tomato/コーン、ブロッコリー、トマト, rice bread or rice, and gateau chocolate don’t show animal ingredients from the allergen chart, but the Low-allergen child’s hamburger and sausage in the same plate have pork.

It might also be possible to order regular french fries/フライドポテト by themselves. On the allergen chart, when they are part of a set, they don’t show animal ingredients. The french fries with wasabi mayonnaise sauce/フライドポテト～西洋わさびマヨネーズソース付～ show egg as an ingredient, but that’s probably from the mayonnaise itself, so it may be worth inquiring if french fries are available for purchase without the mayonnaise.

The miso soup doesn’t show animal ingredients from the allergen chart, but it’s very likely it contains fish and/or seafood.

The “coffee fresh” creamer/コーヒーフレッシュ contains dairy.

Saizeriya

From reviewing their Grand Menu English allergen chart of November 17, 2023, it appears the following menu items may be vegan.

• Penne arrabbiata
• Whole wheat penne arrabbiata
• Crispy potatoes
• Kids’ fries
• Rice
• Turmeric rice
• Refreshing carrot salad
• Green salad

Although the information is not on the English Grand Menu, the other menus say (in English) that the penne arrabbiata contains anchovy. So, it seems likely that the whole wheat penne arrabbiata contains anchovy as well.

The table salt, black pepper, soy sauce, red chili flakes, olive oil, hot sauce, olive & vinegar, mixed herbs spices and vegetable paste don’t show animal ingredients on the allergen chart.

However, the Spaghetti peperoncino has chicken and gelatin. The Saizeriya dressing contains egg. The Mini Ficelle (bread) contains dairy.

Salvatore Cuomo Pizza

According to their website, this chain has stores from Hokkaido to Fukuoka, but not in every prefecture.

The Marinara No. 1/マリナーラNo1 pizza, Green Herb Salad/グリーンハーブサラダ, and French Fries with Skin/皮付フライドきポテト appear to be vegan from the allergen chart (see delivery menu with allergen information from 9/26/23 on their website).

Also reported to have a lunch buffet with marinara pizza, salads with avocado and tofu, separate vinegar dressing, and coffee and juice. No vegan desserts available at lunch buffet.

Soup Stock Tokyo

As of 11/25/2019, Soup Stock Tokyo committed to having one animal-ingredient free soup on their menu every week. The animal-ingredient free soup and curry items are marked with a “Vg.” They rotate the soups on offer every week so check the signboard outside to see what they have on offer that day. Despite the name, they’ve been successful in expanding outside of Tokyo and also have branches in other cities in Japan from Hokkaido to Kyushu. Check the shop list here.

Information here is based on the English allergen chart of July 23rd, presumably 2022, although this is not marked. Interestingly, it also lists which items contain sugar and what types of sugar, although not enough information is given to tell if bone char is used in processing. It would be a good starting point if one wanted to ask more questions to the customer service center. It also lists which items contain palm oil.

The information below is applicable to the in-store soups, not the frozen soups for take-home purchase.

In addition, the Hyogo Basil Dressing appears on the “vegetarian,” animal-ingredient free portion of the allergen chart. This means it may be possible to get a vegan salad with dressing at Soup Stock Tokyo stores.

They have an app where you can check the soups available at each branch before heading there. The app can also be used as a point card to save points to get a discount off your order or some goods marked with the name of the shop. Paper point cards have been discontinued.

Nutritional information, ingredient lists (Japanese), and which soups are on offer that week are also written on the website.

Soup Stock Tokyo also has a book of all the ingredients in each menu item available behind the counter, written in English and Japanese-staff will show it to you if you request to see the ingredients. The book is more specific about which ingredients are in the soups and which are toppings.

Here is more information about current items without animal ingredients that may appear on the menu:

Be careful not to order the Sri Lankan Cashew Curry/カシューナッツのホッダ(スリランカ風ココナッツカレー). It is not vegan because it contains dried bonito extract (skipjack tuna fish), which you can see if you request to look at the ingredient book or by looking at the ingredient list on the website.

Frozen Italian Tomato Minestrone and Green Vegetables & Rock Salt soups may be available for take-home purchase as well. The allergen chart (English) doesn’t apply to the frozen packaged soups, however. 

Subway

In Japan, Subway is not as vegan friendly as in other countries because the sandwich bread and flat bread contains dairy products. The menu items that appear from the allergen chart to potentially be vegan are:

• Salads: avocado veggie and veggie delight salads
• Dressings: oil and vinegar, balsamic. Salt and pepper are also available, as well as sliced hot peppers.
• Oven potatoes: original and herb salt only. The red BBQ and triple cheese flavors contain milk, chicken, pork, and fish. All the oven potatoes are processed on the same factory lines as foods containing dairy and egg. The ketchup, mustard, and chili sauce appear to be vegan from the allergen chart. The ketchup is processed on the same factory line as sheep, fish, and shellfish.
• Drinks (in addition to the usual vegan options like black coffee): soy latte (iced or hot), iced soy mango latte, mango orange smoothie, orange juice, and mango & orange juice

Sukiya

The food at Sukiya that may be vegan according to the allergen chart (there may be some cross-contamination) is:

• Rice
• Tofu
• Natto (be careful with the sauce, if any. For example, it appears mackerel is used in the sauce provided in Okinawa)
• Green onions
• Salad (no dressing)
• Grated yam with wasabi
• Pickled ginger

Please note the nori sheets contain shrimp. The allergen chart says that the pickles and kimchi don’t contain shrimp, but they may still contain fish.

T’s Tan Tan

This all-vegan chain is a wonderful place where you can drop in and have a quick bowl of ramen. They also sell various products such as take-out soymeat “beef” bowl bento boxes/ソイミートの牛丼弁当, cutlet sandwiches, and gyoza, as well as things like their own brand of vegan instant cup noodles, retort pouch curries, and soy meat for home cooking.

For those branches located within train stations, it is permitted to visit them even without riding the train by buying a ticket for the cheapest amount.

Locations (addresses on the T’s website (Japanese)):

JR Tokyo train station (behind the ticket gates)
JR Ueno train station, Tokyo (behind the ticket gates)
JR Ikebukuro train station (behind the ticket gates)
Narita Airport (NRT), Terminal 2 (before passport control) (reopened March 2024)
Narita Airport (NRT) Terminal 1, Tokyo Food Bar, South Wing, Third Floor, near gate 51 (after passport control) (reopened as of 4/1/2023)

The Tokyo and Ueno branches are confirmed to have English menus available.

They also have a fully-vegan restaurant in Jiyugaoka with fewer ramen options and more other choices- try the chocolate cake there. This branch also makes cakes to order for weddings and other special occasions.

Check the Noodles and Pasta section of the blog for more information on their vegan cup noodles.

Tempura Tendon Tenya

Foods at Tenya (Japanese) (English) may have cross-contamination, including from animal products, from the manufacturing or cooking processes. Items such as tendon (tempura bowls), teishoku (set meals), miso soup and takeout noodles may also have cross-contamination from shrimp and crab from seaweed harvesting. More information about this is available on the allergen chart (Japanese). The miso soup probably contains fish dashi (although the allergen chart does not specifically list miso soup).

Their Tensuyu/天つゆパック sauce packets have mackerel, so it seems that the sauce the tempura comes with in the restaurant must contain mackerel as well. It’s recommended to ask for plain soy sauce instead.

The dishes at Tenya that appear from a review of the item names, item photos where available, and their allergen chart of January 14, 2021 (Japanese) to possibly be free of animal ingredients are:

• Pumpkin tempura/かぼちゃ天ぷら
• Green bean tempura/いんげん天ぷら
• Lotus root tempura/れんこん天ぷら
• Potato tempura/いも天ぷら
• Maitake mushroom tempura/舞茸天ぷら
• Eggplant tempura/なす天ぷら
• Chrysanthemum greens kakiage tempura/春菊のかき揚げ (seasonal item)
• Watermelon radish tempura/紅芯大根天ぷら (seasonal item)
• Brussels sprout tempura/芽キャベツの天ぷら (seasonal item)
• Cauliflower tempura/カリフラワーの天ぷら (seasonal item)
• Grated daikon/大根おろし
• Grated yam/とろろ

The cold tofu/冷奴 and boiled spinach/ほうれん草おひたし as well as the mini boiled spinach/ミニおひたし may be vegan if ordered without the katsuobushi fish flakes they’re topped with.

The following items are listed as containing mackerel, however it may be possible that it is only in the sauce and possible to have the dish without sauce, but it would be a good idea to consult with staff. If the item comes with miso soup, it’s highly likely to contain fish or seafood as well as vegan miso soup is almost unknown in Japan outside of vegan restaurants. Be careful as some items look very similar to other items with animal ingredients such as shrimp and so on, so check the Japanese item name when ordering:

Vegetable tendon/野菜天丼
Vegetable tempura set meal/野菜天ぷら定食
Vegetable tempura udon (cold)/野菜天ぷらうどん（冷）
Vegetable tempura soba (cold)/野菜天ぷらそば（冷）
Iniawa-style udon (cold)/稲庭風うどん 冷

Assorted vegetable tempura/野菜天盛合せ (available for takeout)

Early spring tempura/早春のっけ野菜天盛合わせ (seasonal item)
To-go cold udon/ＴＯ冷うどん

The hot vegetable tempura udon/野菜天ぷらうどん（温）, hot vegetable tempura soba/野菜天ぷらそば（温）, Iniawa-style udon (hot)/稲庭風うどん 温 and Nihachi soba (hot)/二八そば 温 all contain both mackerel and milk. The to-go hot udon/ＴＯ温うどん contains egg, milk, and mackerel.

2foods

This plant-based fast food chain that doesn’t use white sugar or bone-char processed sugar (and according to their website, is checking for it as well as much as possible in secondary raw materials (from autotranslate): “As much as possible even with secondary raw materials
We are checking to the extent that we can follow it so that it will not be used/ 二次原料でも隔力使用しないよう弊社が追うことができる範囲で確認を行っております).”

They have five branches in Tokyo: Shibuya, Roppongi, Azabu-Juban, Ningyocho, and Tokyo Station (Yaesu Shopping Mall). Their branches offer things like doughnuts, doughnut sandwiches, noodles, and curries. All foods should be free of animal ingredients. They have also opened an online store with a few items.

Yoshinoya

The food at Yoshinoya that may be vegan according to the allergen chart published 3/26/2020 (Japanese) (there may be some cross-contamination) is:

• Fresh vegetable salad/生野菜サラダ

The Roasted Sesame Dressing/焙煎胡麻ドレッシング is not vegan as it contains egg.

Kids’ menu:
