OVERVIEW

Vegan Sushi Tokyo is a dedicated vegan sushi restaurant nestled in the COEN Building (5F) at 1-15-7 Jinnan, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo 150-0041. Established in June 2024, it operates Tuesday to Friday from 11:00 AM to 2:30 PM, offering only a 10-piece sushi set with miso soup—by reservation only. The space converts into a bar in the evening, and the restaurant observes closures on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.

THE RESTAURANT

Created with the vision of bringing plant-based sushi to Tokyo, it enlists expertise from chef Akira Tanimizu to craft imaginative pieces using Japanese-inspired vegan ingredients (king oyster mushroom, pumpkin, myoga, tofu kabayaki) that faithfully recreate traditional sushi textures and taste.

DINING & RECOMMENDATIONS

The sushi set is visually striking and satisfying in every bite—favorites include tempura, scrambled egg, vegan tuna mayo, and salmon roe-style pieces. While the scrambled egg divided opinions, many praised its creativity. The reservation system ensures smooth service. The ambiance is calming, with subtle music and warm, attentive service.

WHY VISIT?

Vegan Sushi Tokyo is a rare gem for plant-based diners in Japan—elevating sushi into a fully vegan experience that doesn’t compromise on presentation or flavor. Its prime location in Shibuya, commitment to quality, and imaginative sushi creations make it a must-visit for vegans and adventurous food lovers alike.
