Great food but a little expensive

The food was great, tasty and came out quickly. The menu was extensive and had a good variety of foods (Japanese, pastas, burgers) but it felt a little rushed and was a bit on the expensive side compared to other places we’ve tried in Tokyo for similar food. Loved that it was a fully vegan restaurant though!

Myammy food

I have been to this particular restaurant twice and both times the food was delicious. The burger as well as the rice dishes and the desserts are presented in an appetizing way and taste as much.

The menu is in English and the staff is very friendly.

Pros: Food is tasty, Staff is friendly and helpful, Easy to find next to the metro station

Cons: Some might not like the interior design

Yummy & Thoughtful

The pancakes were so yummy. The bread and its texture were perfect; soft on the inside and a light sweet crunch on the outside. The central and whip cream pair so well to give you that creaminess as it melts. The assortment of fruits were greatly appreciated. Definitely will eat again.

lecker

definitiv ein Besuch für den Burger und die Pancakes wert. Beides der Hammer. Es ust zu den Stoßzeiten sehr voll, deswegen würde ich lieber reservieren ubd auch damit rechnen dass die Essenszubereitung länger dauert

Delicious set menu

We had the “Journey” course menu, which included an appetizer, main course, and dessert, and everything was beautifully prepared and very flavorful.

You get a bit less what you pay for

I think it is okay. Not amazing, not bad. The staff was nice, but the ambience in the restaurant is not the best (especially if you compare it to the Kyoto location). The food a bit boring and a bit too pricey.
Good option if you have nothing else around and are really hungry

Great food, options and service

Has to be close to the best food we've had in Japan so far. Great options as everything on the menu is vegan. Japanese, Western, italian, mediterranean, something for everyone. Great selection of desserts too. They also gave us a book a 2026 Tokyo Vegetarian and Vegan restaurant guide. Super handy to go alongside the app

Pros: Delicious food, Good options, Service

Enttäuscht

Ich freute mich auf ein tolles Mittagessen, was ich dann dort aß traf gar nicht meinen Geschmack. Der Burger war ok, sehr fades Patty und die Pommes waren labbrig mit Faden Soßen. Der Schokoladen Kuchen war ok. Für den Preis war es, für mich , kein gelungenes Mittagessen.

AIN SOPH. Journey SHINJUKU is a vegan paradise!

I had the Matcha soy latte, vegan chicken teriyaki, a delicious vegan cutlet, and finished with their Heavenly Pancakes. Every dish was full of flavor, beautifully presented, and truly satisfying. The pancakes live up to their name—fluffy, sweet, and unforgettable. Highly recommend this spot for anyone wanting amazing plant-based food in Tokyo!

Delish, but slow!

Loved the food here. My parents and husband who are not vegan found dishes to enjoy.

Pancakes live up to the hype. 🙂

Good vegan food

Very different to the AIN Soph I visited in central Tokyo last year. Where as that was very much vegan Japanese this was ‘world cuisine’. Good food, great for my wife, but I was a little disappointed to have so few Japanese options

Sweet dishes < 3

Hamburgers in Japan just feels wrong, but now it became so because we were very hungry. The smaller meals looked very good. We saw people eating puddle, waffles, ice cream, yes everything looked good. Even the burger was good, but still did not feel quite right, if I would recommend someone to go here, it is enough for the sweet dishes

Burger and bolognase

Our second visit to an ain soph and we loved it

My wife had a large spaghetti bolognaise and I had the ripple burger.

Both were delicious, the burger was epically messy to eat and delicious.
We both left absolutely stuffed

Lovely and fresh 🌱

Loved the ice cream, whipped cream and jam that came with the pancakes. Pancakes were more bready that pancakey, delicious nonetheless😄Salad was super fresh and enjoyed the corn soup that came with the set.

First place we visited when landing in Tokyo! Fresh, nourishing whole foods-style, perfect fuel after a long flight. It was steady in there. Very friendly. Taco Rice was fire!!

Worth a visit

If you find yourself in Shinjuku then you should eat here. Yes, it's on the pricier side, but the food is certainly worth it. Food I showed in pics cost JPY4500.

Pros: Kind staff, Nice deco, Food is great

Cons: On the pricier side, Maybe a bit too cozy

Amazing vegan cafe with lots of options, sweet and savoury. I had the banana pancakes, I wanted to try the savoury options too but will have to come back.
