    Best for

    A fully plant-based ramen shop in Shibuya's Udagawacho, opened in April 2026 by a woman owner, drawing on Buddhist shojin cooking for a broth with no meat, fish, eggs or dairy. The yuzu shio ramen is the signature, with a savoury vegan mazesoba as the brothless option.

    Yuzu Shio Ramen (ゆず塩ラーメン)

    Opened Apr 27, 2026 (official site and a blog). No menu prices found; price bands are a guess between Hotpepper's ¥2,001–3,000 budget per person and a single bowl, so check. Specialty from the official site (the bowl that "symbolises" the shop).
