The official menu describes a 'Vegan-tailored vegetable broth' made from porcini mushrooms, kelp, shiitake and vegetables. However, standard ramen bowls contain animal-based toppings (chicken, pork, duck, egg). No dedicated vegan menu or separate prep area is indicated. Vegan diners can request the vegan broth but should expect shared equipment and possible cross-contamination.

Available on request, No marked menu but staff will accommodate. Quality varies by who is working that shift.
The vegan broth option is available, but no specific vegetarian menu exists. Typical ramen includes meat and egg by default. Staff can likely accommodate on request, but cross-contamination risk is high and there are no dedicated protocols described in the sources.

Not appropriate, Documented unsafe, multiple negative reports, or refuses to accommodate. Surfaced to warn rather than recommend.
Mensho Tokyo is a ramen shop where noodles are made in-house daily from wheat (including whole grain, rye and quinoa blends). No gluten-free noodle option or dedicated GF kitchen is mentioned in any source. The menu lists no GF marking and the venue is not listed on coeliac-friendly aggregators. Cross-contamination is structurally inherent.
