Ippudo was a spot that made me and my wife want to come back here again! This is a paradise for vegetarians / vegans alike. The menu is plentiful, taste is great and service + ambiance are both awesome! If you're in the area, I'd highly recommend to try their Brooklyn Bridge roll! read more

Delicious vegan food!!! This place is a gem, slightly hidden near the secondary entrance to the Brooklyn Bridge, on Sands Street - but absolutely worth the visit. Everything we had was delicious and tasty: We started with the Super Mario Bros roll, then moved into the Vrooklyn Gyoza (I dove straight into them, so enticing they were, and forgot the photo!) Both were outstanding. A good sign for the forthcoming ramen... And the ramen was really good!!! I had the Plat-Ton which is their signature Tonkotsu. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the toppings of tofu, carrots, fried mushrooms and more were fresh, tasty and vibrant. My husband had the Dragon Tan-Tan, extra spicy and really loved his as well. We had drinks, the Yuzu Fizz for me, which is a refreshing non-alcoholic drink. Husband had the Toyko M75 and a beer. Overall, we very much enjoyed our meal and would highly recommend it, to vegans and omnivores alike. Service was excellent and the space itself is beautiful, light and airy. I am looking forward to returning again, also when it is warmer out and they have the bay doors open. I'm sure that it is quite lovely. Go check this place out! read more

Me and my partner came here when we were starving so honestly, everything tasted really good. I really enjoyed the ambience and our waitress was so sweet! I love that they put out three different homemade sauces for you and it really does pack a flavor punch, especially when you have the freedom to mix them as you please. The best menu item hands-down is probably their maitake tempura. My partner who doesn't like mushrooms says that it was his favorite dish as well. Just so crispy and the mushrooms are so juicy and meaty. And paired with that curry dipping sauce? It was to die for. I also really enjoyed the tonkotsu ramen. I will admit that I was a little bit disappointed with the proteins in the Ramen because as someone who loves tofu, I found the tofu to be really bland. The marinated carrots also felt a little bit out of place and overpowering, but that broth was so incredible. I'm so impressed that it's vegan and they were still able to capture so much depth and flavor. I genuinely wanted to ask if they sell the broth to go lol. Everything else was good, but not extraordinary. The dragon tantan was a little bit too salty for my taste and it's also spicy. I wish they had more dessert options but I will definitely be back! read more

Pleasantly surprised with vegan ramen! We came on a quiet weeknight and it was pretty empty, so we were able to choose any table and service was so attentive. We got one of the seasonal apps - fried eggplant, and shared 2 ramens. They're super kid/baby friendly! They brought out plastic plates, cutlery, and even a straw cup for him. Such a nice touch! I liked the platon tonkatsu more than the daichi no miso. It was creamy and I loved the crunch from the fried enoki. If you're in the dumbo area and looking for a solid ramen spot, I'd recommend ippudo v read more

I am in love with the new fully vegan restaurant @ippudov that is by the @ippudo group here in Brooklyn! I've already visited twice this month and still want to go back to try more. The drinks and desserts were fair, but the ramen were heavenly! Absolutely loved all of them and I highly recommend to try it out even if you're not vegan! read more

The broth at Ippudo V was incredible. I'm shocked at how they can have such a huge place in dumbo, but the restaurant is cavernous and so aesthetically pleasing. I sat at the bar alone and service was good even at the off-peak 3pm time I went. I'd come back often and try more of the menu! read more

Modern creative and artistic vegan restaurant you should definitely try!! The restaurant has been opened since last year :) we are not vegans.. but when I hear about it is by Ippudo? I was highly expected and it was a jackpot!! The waiters are so nice and telling us what's good :)! Friendly! Super neat inside and open windows brings stylish environments. We got 3 kinds of different ramen bowls and it was mind blowing! Full of umami, couldn't believe it's vegan meals. And they looked so beautiful!! My personal order Toma tan men (shio) was excellent. The noodles are all fresh!! We are all happy with the experience! Thank you for the great service x read more

Ippudo V is truly a hidden gem and I'm thrilled that Ippudo has decided to run with a plant-based concept! The menu features Japanese cuisine and I was very impressed with everything we tried. I'm always on the hunt for vegan sushi and the rolls here are phenomenal - the Super Mario Bro and Brooklyn Bridge Rolls are must-orders. Be warned: there's only 4 pieces per order, you'll want more! Another stellar item were the Brussels Sprouts, which may just be on my list of top Brussels sprouts, as they were cooked to perfection. The Gyoza were great and you couldn't tell they were vegan. My least favorite item was the Maitake Tempura, as I found them to be a bit lacking in flavor. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu. read more

If you're interested in playful eats, then definitely check this place out! Very unexpectedly delightful experience! Glad our server convinced us to be stay and try vegan ramen because we didn't realize it was vegan at first LOL As soon as we stepped inside, we were greeted with a spacious and beautiful open kitchen with lots of seating options. We started off with the seasoned seaweed French fries & pan fried edamame. Wish we got some sauce for the fries but they were perfectly crispy! The seasoning for the pan fried edamame was addicting, and we went through all of it within minutes! Then we got the Platon Tonkotsu ramen and the Shojin Shoyu ramen. The broth for both of them was flavorful, light, and delicious! The fried enoki mushrooms in the tonkotsu ramen was my favorite, crispy & addicting! Very creamy broth as well even though it's not meat-based which I loved! Our server was super friendly & funny too! Shout out to him with the amazing playlist too! Great spot for my vegans out there and for people who are open to trying different flavors! read more

I saw the sign for ippudo V around the corner from my gym so I decided to go check it out after my workout. The corner location is sunny and warm, and I loved the garage style windows that rolled up and let the fresh air in. There isn't a ton of foot traffic by that area in Dumbo but the space is simply gorgeous and the menu is quite creative and worthy of a visit. This fifth location frmo Ippudo serves exclusively plant-based versions of their ramen and bao buns. They also have plant-based sushi as well, but I just finished a workout so I decided on a Mango Manifesto ($13) smoothie instead. I loved the housemade vegan whipped cream piped around the sides of the cup and the smoothie was very mango-forward. I didn't taste much of the plant-based protein collagen so if you are sensitive to powders, you will not be put off by their smoothies. read more

We stumbled into this new restaurant walking around the area. We came in for the sandos but they only serve during the day time. This place is pretty spacious and it was set up like cafe/restaurant style. We got the gyoza, sushi roll and dessert. The gyoza was pretty good and really enjoyed the 3 unique dipping sauces. The sushi roll was vegan and thought it was alright. The imitation eel did taste pretty similar to real eel. We also got drinks hojicha latte and sencha. Both were pretty standard drinks and I believe they source from Kettle. The chocolate mousse cake was really good. It's made out of tofu and has a good texture to it. Overall, pretty solid new restaurant for vegan Japanese food. It's a bit pricy for some of the dishes tho. read more

My husband, a dedicated meat eater, declared it some of the best ramen he's ever had--and my jaw was on the floor when he said that! The food was absolutely incredible. The ingredients were fresh and perfectly balanced, with nothing overdone or overly processed. The homemade noodles were exceptional, but the sauces truly stole the show. 10/10 read more

ippudo V Brookyln - Gyoza - Ramen Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I feel very mixed giving 4 stars for $30 ramen, but I think the fact that it's vegan but doesn't taste vegan combined with the gorgeous interior of the space may help to justify it?? Everything on the menu is plant based, and while I'm a meat lover through and through, I was very intrigued. Once I got past the sticker shock (typical Ippudo ramen are in the high teens to lower $20's), I decided I needed to try the "tonkotsu" and see for myself how rich they could make a plant based broth that is traditionally pork based. OH MY. they did it. They really did it. How did they get the broth to be so creamy?? So rich?? Answer: mushroom and soy milk? No matter, I was so impressed! The grilled eggplant slice in the tonkotsu was soooo melt in your mouth and the pickled carrots added a nice refreshing zing, while the fried enoki provided a tasty crunch. The husband was less impressed with his shoyu ramen, which is generally lighter than the tonkotsu to begin with, but I still thought they did a great job with the broth. All in all, I don't know the variety of options out there for vegans, but ippudo V did a banging job of delivering on the umami. If I didn't have a side by side comparison I'm not sure that I'd be able to recognize that this broth is plant based! The price is not my cup of tea, but hey, I'll stick with my meat-based $20 ramen! read more

This Ippudo location really did a great job rectifying our Uber Eats order missing items. Really appreciated that they went out of their way to call on a personal phone and get in touch with us when their restaurant phone was having issues so that they could fix the situation. Christina was very kind and helpful on the phone and we appreciate her!! Plus their ramen broth is unmatched. Thank you Ippudo team! read more

I came to Ippudo V on a rainy Monday for lunch. Located in Dumbo, close to the F stop, it doesn't look like an Ippudo and doesn't feel like an Ippudo. No chorus of Japanese greetings and it's a huge bright space. It's also un-Ippudo like empty at lunch which feels weirder given the big space. However - the food and service are brilliant and if you are vegan it's purely outstanding. If you aren't vegan it is also outstanding. I had the following: - VROOKLYN GYOZA: 6pcs of grilled dumplings wrapped with plant-based 'pork', cabbage, onions, soy, leeks. 3 types of house made sauces include classic vinegar soy sauce, savory mango miso, and tart cilantro jalapeno (Delicious!!! So good, some of the best gyoza i've ever had) - Toma Tan Ton: Blended mineral rich "Chicken" broth, whole grain noodles, stewed tomato and Hakusai cabbage, leeks, grilled tomato, crispy tofu cubes and fried Nori, topped with garlic chipsb and black pepper (Excellent and loved the whole grain noodles. Added Karaka Paste and Enoki Tempura. Broth was very flavorful) The menu also includes other ramens , many other add ons, sushi, sandwiches, appetizers and desserts and shakes. It's really amazing and thoughtful and designed from the ground up. It would be great if they could add some of these items to other Ippudos or open other Ippudo Vs in Manhattan. The service was super friendly and attentive as well. read more

Delicious vegan ramen! I was surprised that everything was vegan and would definitely come here for just good ramen generally. The only downside was that the food took a long time to come out but I'm not sure if that's normal or just what happened our night. Otherwise everything about this spot was great. read more

So extremely happy they are in our neighborhood now! Everything is delicious. Even my omnivore husband enjoys the vegan Ramen there. Jesse and the staff are terrific, and we hope people will support this delicious vegan restaurant! Are you meat eaters... Don't be fooled... This place is delicious and is entirely plant based. Give it a try! read more

I came here for dinner with a friend on a Monday night. I'm always excited to try a new vegan Japanese restaurant especially vegan sushi. Planta Queen is my favorite vegan restaurant but it's in Manhattan so I'm always looking for a good vegan restaurant in Brooklyn. The place had a lot of seating and I especially liked the tables near the opened windows. My friend ordered the Pla-Ton (vegan tonkotsu) ramen with vegan noodles, fried enoki mushrooms, and eggplant. I ordered the Super Mario Bros sushi roll (Akazu brown rice, seaweed, avocado, asparagus tempura, marinated carrot, marinated red cabbage, mushroom tempura, plant-based "Tuna" mayo teriyaki sauce, mayo and micro herb). The vegan tonkotsu broth and noodles tasted great and rich. The sushi roll was tasty too. I really liked the mushroom tempura. However, the mayo was not vegan so it's vegetarian sushi, not vegan sushi which would bother people who are vegans. I'm not vegan so it's not a big deal to me. Service was fast and friendly. The place was on the pricey side but I'm glad I tried it. read more

Insanely overpriced vegan sushi. This stuff is DELICIOUS like so good, but $14 for 4 pieces of vegan sushi is insane. And they never add the get one free item. I guess it's Dumbo pricing and I'll pay money for good food but like at least give us 6 pieces. read more

Ramen was tasty. It wasn't too hot. My friend's bowl was steaming though. Their timing is off. The tempura onions on the side were very hard and didn't have any flavor. I returned them. read more

My friends and I stopped in spontaneously for matcha, tea, and coffee. It was a big, bright space with plenty of seating. We sat at the coffee bar as the drinks were being made and they were all delicious. Good strong iced coffees, and the matcha was made properly with a wooden whisk and quality matcha powder. Christina took really good care of us! We loved her energy. I'd definitely come back again and try the other offerings. read more

Been wanting to stop by and finally did. Ordered Mario roll, had crunchy tempura and rich tuna mayo--was delicious. The roll came in 4 pieces (though I thought it would be 6 from photos). Had the cherry blossom mocktail. It was good, sweet, a little underwhelming but fine. The cherry on the spear was yummy to try. Got the tsukemen, noodles perfectly cooked, broth was rich and spicy. Natto was ... well normal natto lol. There was one shishito. I knew what I was getting, basically just noodles and broth, and it was good, but I regretted not going with another option like the Daichi because it looks like it has more veggies and stuff in it rather than plain noodles. For dessert, the cheesecake. It was good, though sweet and kind of one-note, however the sauce was citrusy. I would say over all everything was decent but nothing to come back for. It didn't wow me enough to crave any dish so much that I would want to go back for it (unlike some restaurants where you can't wait to go back and have it again). The best dish was the sushi. I appreciate the vegan menu and the space was nice. Huge and empty when we were there late afternoon. read more

Ippudo in Brooklyn! And they're plant based! And what's this, they deliver! Wait, why don't they have any of their menu items from their restaurant on their delivery menu? C'mon Ippudo, there are starving vegans that would spend their money on your ramen weekly, but you're not helping. Put your vegan items on your delivery menu. You would have made bank from us by now. Also, update your vegetarian items to vegan with vegan mayo and vegan egg so you don't have to feel guilty calling yourself plant based. Ippudo decision makers, step it up. You put a V in your name, but you don't deliver it, just slinging pork products out the back? WTF? read more

Terrible experience. Staff were very unfriendly for no reason. One of the waitresses literally followed us out the door hounding us on something they could improve. Even left a snarky remark at us when we just wanted to leave. Avoid this place. read more

In today's climate, it's important for a successful business venture to consider consumers' needs and wants. Here comes Ippudo, a well-known Japanese ramen empire with their signature tonkotsu broth. Even a giant needs to heed to diner voices and has introduced the first vegetarian spot from the ramen shop. Despite the lack of 'meat', the bowl is still very hearty and comforting - still he same wavy egg noodle but now cooked in a vegetarian base along with vegetable toppings and obviously no char siu. But the meal still feels satisfying. The Pla-ton ("faux-kotsu") ramen is should probably be the first foray here. The broth is creamy yet loaded with umami. Nothing taste any less stellar than the OG version, including the price point, not that vegetable dishes should be cheaper. Now chat Chikalicious Dessert Bar has closed, having their dessert there is also another advantage point. No line so far, so do take advantage of it, along with the calm and less hectic environment. read more
