Tokyo Vegan Restaurants

Wonderful dinner, amazing place and super super staff Arigato Gozaimas!!!

A truly memorable dinner! The course is themed around the history of life on Earth, so each dish is named after a different era, like the “birth of the ocean” or “fluorishing of mammals. The theme carries through everything, down to the cutlery and how each plate is served. The food mixes Latin flavors with Japanese ingredients like mochi, which isn’t a combination you come across often in Japan. My favorite part was the textures. Each dish felt different, and I never quite knew what to expect next. It’s dark and cozy inside, but the lighting makes the food stand out even more. The staff explained the idea behind each dish in English, which helped me appreciate what I was eating. One thing to know: portions are on the small side, so if you have a big appetite, you might not leave completely full. A good pick for a birthday, anniversary, or special night out, or if you just want to try something different in Ginza.

"I've been to a lot of restaurants with course menus, but this was unlike anything I've experienced before. It was a true culinary journey as well as a journey through time! Every dish was beautifully presented, incredibly flavorful, and full of interesting combinations of ingredients and textures. You could definitely taste the South American influences, which made the experience even more unique. One of my favorite courses was The Flourishing of Mammals — Primates, which featured mochi and had such a lovely combination of textures and wonderful flavors. I also really enjoyed the main course. Even the cutlery rests were interesting, including one made from bones! The dessert was perfectly balanced and not too sweet, which was a lovely way to finish the meal. Overall, it was a really creative and memorable dining experience, with surprising flavors and thoughtful details throughout."

My daughter is vegetarian and being able to have such an elegant, authentic meal in Tokyo without worrying about what she could eat was wonderful! Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and delicious.

They accommodated my pescatarian request beautifully. A wonderful fusion of Latin American and Japanese cuisine, with each dish carefully narrated by the staff, which made the experience even better. The interior is very sophisticated. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a gastronomy or fusion experience in Tokyo.

My first Peruvian restaurant, and what an introduction! The food was creative and visually stunning, and every dish had a story behind it. Each plate was custom designed to match the dish, which made the whole meal feel like an experimental dining journey. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone looking for something unique in Ginza.

We had an excellent dinner at SHARI Akasaka and really enjoyed the Kaiseki Course “Fuji”. What stood out to me was the variety of the menu. We tried several different types of seafood, seasonal vegetables, Matsutake mushrooms and Kuroge Wagyu, so every course felt different. My highlights were the grilled tilefish with Matsutake and the Kuroge Wagyu sirloin with daikon radish. The rice cooked in a traditional pot with autumn mackerel was also excellent. The experience was very easy to enjoy as an international visitor, since the menu was available in English and the dishes were easy to follow. It was a great choice for a date night and a nice way to experience a more refined side of Japanese cuisine. The food, presentation and overall experience were all excellent.

We had such a lovely experience at SHARI Akasaka. We chose the Kaiseki Course “Fuji” and it was definitely one of our favorite meals during our trip to Japan. I loved how the menu showcased so many seasonal Japanese ingredients and different flavors. The Matsutake mushroom and tilefish grilled in foil was one of my favorite dishes, and the Kuroge Wagyu sirloin was absolutely delicious. The traditional pot-cooked rice with autumn mackerel was also such a special way to finish the savory courses. As a foreign visitor, I really appreciated having the menu in English and being able to understand what we were eating throughout the experience. It was a beautiful dinner to enjoy as a couple, with great food and a sophisticated but comfortable atmosphere. I would definitely recommend SHARI to anyone looking for a special Japanese dining experience.

I had such a lovely dining experience here! From the beautifully presented dishes to the warm and welcoming service, everything made the evening feel really special. I especially appreciated how foreign-friendly the restaurant is. The chef takes the time to explain each dish in English, which makes it even more enjoyable when trying traditional Japanese ingredients and preparations. My favorites were the Bluefin Tuna with Wasabi Soy Sauce, the Sukiyaki-style Wagyu Beef with Burdock Tempura, and the Japanese ceramic kettle-cooked rice with side dishes and red miso soup. Everything was thoughtfully prepared. The staff made the experience even better. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and fun to be around. They even joined my videos, which made filming effortless and enjoyable. With its intimate atmosphere, attentive service, and welcoming team, I think this is a beautiful spot for couples and date nights. A wonderful combination of delicious food, great hospitality, and memorable moments!

I love that SHARI Akasaka staff and chefs gave me the opportunity to come by and give them a review! Arigato gozaimasu! |My experience here was absolutely amazing. The staff were really friendly and professional, and they made the experience comfortable and fun. From the set up to the dishes and how everything was presented, they did a phenomenal job. The restaurant is also very foreign-friendly, and the chefs take their time explaining each dish to you in English. |The Kaiseki Course had me shocked! Each dish was carefully prepared and exploded with flavor. My favorites were the Shine Muscat in Tofu Dressing with Seared Barracuda Sushi, Tilefish & Deep-fried Sesame Tofu in Kudzu Sauce, and Sukiyaki-style Wagyu Beef & Burdock Tempura. The other dishes were just as amazing, so it was really hard to choose my favorites. |I would really recommend this place to foreigners who want to experience Japanese cuisine. They also have menus in English and Japanese, so there is no Google Translate or confusion! This is honestly a remarkable place. I really loved every second of the experience!

Wow - what an experience! Every detail is looked after. Excellent English (thanks for that!). Remember to book in advance.

The food is so amazing. Very high quality and you can see how much passion the chef puts into the menu and the attention to detail and plating was magnificent. I got to try various arrangements and I really enjoyed the chefs calm and friendly manner. Highly recommend
