Vegan Ramen: 1:1 Twins, No Compromise

Every bowl on our menu has a vegan twin, not a substitute, a sibling. Each twin is built on its own clear, double-soup vegan broth: layered and deeply savory the way our broths always are, just never touching animal products. Half the menu is fully plant-based, which means the whole table eats well and nobody gets vetoed. Ordering is simple: pick any bowl and ask for its twin, the Vegan Tokyo Shoyu is the front door. And because trust matters more than promises, every vegan order is verified at four checkpoints from the moment it's rung in to the moment it's handed over.

Vegan Ramen — Questions

  • Does Matsunoki have vegan ramen?

    Yes, more than any ramen shop in Portland. Every bowl on the menu has a 1:1 vegan twin built on its own clear, double-soup vegan broth, so half the menu is fully plant-based.

  • What is the vegan broth?

    A clear "double-soup" vegan broth, two plant-based soups layered into one, so it's deeply savory without any animal products. It's not the tonkotsu with something removed; it's its own broth, built from scratch.

  • How do I know my bowl is actually vegan?

    Every vegan order is verified at four checkpoints between the register and the handoff. It's a system, not a promise, the same discipline we apply to everything else in the kitchen.

  • Is the vegan ramen gluten-free?

    No. We offer a keto-friendly noodle substitution, but the seasoning contains soy sauce, so no bowl is fully gluten-free even with the swap. Guests with celiac disease should talk with the team before ordering.

  • Do the vegan bowls taste like the originals?

    They're twins, not stand-ins: same care, same noodles, same intent, built to their own spec rather than imitating meat. Plenty of our regulars order the twins by preference, not by diet.

  • Do Ramen Drops have vegan options?

    Always. Every seasonal Drop includes a vegan option, see the current Drop on our homepage.
