IRO Izakaya Vegan in Berlin

It was so delicious😸 great food & great music & great staff! The Yuzu Panacotta is highly recommended😋 I will definitely come back

The vegan food here is really great! There is a great selection and the lunch offers are convincing at a great price. The staff is also very friendly and the atmosphere is very pleasant. Great recommendation for anyone looking for new vegan restaurants.

Great dinner for a work trip! We will be back again

The food is delicious, I ate the best ramen of my life! The people working on site are welcoming and very nice, thank you! 😊

One of my favorite restaurants in the neighborhood :)

Not only one of the best Vegan experience I had around Europe, but also one of the best Japanese restaurants I have ever tried. Everything, starting with the tea, following with the delicious king trumpet yakitori, the udon with fried vegetables and avocado and ending with the vegan mochi was full of flavour, umami and character. The crispy vegetables left a wonderful sensation in my mouth, and the mushrooms had a nice texture and were perfectly grilled. The local is elegant, and gives that nice feeling of conviviality and tradition. The service was good and each course was served quickly one after the other.

Ramen not homemade neither broth nor noodles. Unfortunately disappointing. There is more authentic food there.

I loooove everything here! The soups are not exactly my taste, but my boyfriend loved it and I enjoy the sushi here a lot!

Mad good vegan food 😮‍💨 we will definetly come back here!!

Super delicious ramen, cozy atmosphere and dreamlike avocadotempura! I would recommend at any time ♥️

Very tasty vegan dishes and a good diverse selection, mega tasty gyoza the ambience is nice, the staff was friendly and quick despite a full restaurant.

Service was nice, but not warm either. The price of the food is rather too high. Unfortunately, the sushi rice was hard, either not cooked long enough or from the day before, but in any case that significantly diminished the sushi taste experience. The miso soup was quite ok.

Update Jan 2025. New menu, simplified presentation (pictures!) and a few new items. Place is packed at 20:00. Service is slower. Good Japanese vegan. Reasonable prices, good staff, delicious food. CASH ONLY

Fantastic restaurant. I had no.4 and no.40 on the menu. Both immaculately presented and the ‘kimono’ was the best tasting sushi I have ever eaten.

Super delicious food (recommend the Tantan Ramen) and great service! :)

Super tasty and very nice service. Plus everything is vegan ❤️

Super friendly, very tasty, food arrived very quickly and relaxed atmosphere

It was incredibly tasty, we will definitely come back! :)

Amazon food and also very clean

The starters are excellent, especially the braised tofu and the king oyster mushrooms. The miso soup is also recommended 👍

Good and diverse food, quick and friendly service, cozy atmosphere. :-)

Very good and beautifully presented food! We'd love to come back

Fully vegan izakaya! I do wish (hence 4 stars for food) there was a bigger range of options to order from - like vegan versions of the classics they serve at the non-vegan location. Otherwise great place - as of December 2024 payment was only possible with cash or EC Karte.

Super delicious, vegan sushi in unusual compositions and beautifully prepared. The staff was quick and friendly and the restaurant was cozy. You sit pretty close to the tables next to you, Friday evening it was full and correspondingly loud but it didn't detract from the positive overall impression :)

I used to LOVE this place. I'm not vegan myself but this was my favourite sushi place in Berlin. However on my last take away I was very disappointed. The sushi size was much smaller than usual. Flavour was off. The usual sauces they put on some of the sushi was barely there and the rice as old and dry. You could not pick up one piece of sushi without it crumpling up to bits. I had to eat it with a spoon ( not even a fork) because chopsticks was out of questions. So disappointed. The seaweed that goes on one of the sushi types that's usually my favourite tasted really funky. I couldn't eat it. Yeah. All in all I probably won't ever go back. My second to last trip there was already a drop in quality now this. Very sad

Delicious vegetarian food. The Japanese curry and the Tokatsu ramen are highly recommended.

The food was truly a 10/10! Super tasty ramen and the dessert was also perfectly seasoned. The service was friendly but very hectic and short. However, the restaurant absolutely does not invite you to linger. Although the restaurant looks very nice, the ambience is unfortunately not so nice. The entire store is very loud and hectic. There are a lot of tables in the narrow aisle, so you feel like you're sitting in the way. Since the aisle is so narrow, you often get bumped into :( so we left immediately after eating, even though we would have liked to have something to drink. A new arrangement of the tables would make a big difference here.

There was very tasty food! I had also tried the others and every dish had tasted good so far.

Amazing food and ambiance. The atmosphere is great for a lazy lunch or dinner on a cold day. Sushi and ramen were really good. Panna cotta must try.

I was enjoying the food, first time eating in a Japanese restaurant so I took some sushi and the vegan chicken roll was delicious 😋 It was with a cream and it is so much better in my opinion than with soy or teriyaki. And I took guiza for take away, the waitress was recommended I will check it out too.

It wasn't bad, but unfortunately my curry dish didn't arrive hot and with the gyoza I found the sauces on top a bit too much.

If you feel the need for some comfort food on a cold day, then you've come to the right place 😊 Finely filled sushi in a crispy shell topped with aromatic almond flakes and then two wonderfully nourishing and strengthening ramen, what more could you want 😉 We felt good and are heading home with Happy Belly 🤗✨️

The vegan Tantan Ramen is simply delicious! We can't eat ramen anywhere else since this discovery!

Super delicious food! And very nice service (:

Super delicious food and perfect for vegan people, if you just don't want to think about what you can order. :D Had a starter combo of the agedashi mochi and tofu sukiyaki, both very good and big enough servings to feel like a meal, but leave room for dessert.

Fast, friendly service. Solid ambience and really great food. I had maki and wonton ramen. Delicious!

Amazing vegan sushi and really nice staff. Would absolutely recommend coming.

All very tasty. Have ordered across the board

Amazing food. Ordered Ramen and sushi. Ramen broth was light and delicious. Sushi was fresh. But had to wait over an hour for our order.

The sushi is very good both normal rolls and in/out ones. Starters were also very good

All delicious, first time trying vegan sushi, and it was a nice surprise!! We will definitely return

Wonderful experience at Iro. A well-extensive menu, with a wide variety of dishes. We opted for a menu offering miso soup and an assortment of sushi and maki for 2 people. Amazing ! We will have to come back to try other dishes.

Very tasty and super fast service

Really good vegan Japanese place. Food was very unique and delicious. They have put a lot of thought into which products recreates the texture of different sushi. I would recommend their platters if you're going in a group.

Ramen was really good! Also, super cosy ambience and vibes ✨ Cucumber salad was amazing😍

Very tasty, seasoned to perfection, quick service. The food menu strikes a balance between “varied” and “clear”, the drinks menu is kept short, but the lemonades are very distinctive and the teas are well selected. A nice little point: every type of tea comes in a matching pot

The Moshi Agedashi are absolute hamma. The Tantan Ramen and the Shoyu Ramen were mega. We'll definitely be back.

Bad service. Despite reservations, no table was reserved. First we were made to follow and then suddenly we stopped. Then we were given a completely uncomfortable table right next to the drafty door with a side stool - even though there was definitely a free table. No thanks.

Very tasty fried sushi. We have now tried them all and always enjoy coming back. My favorite is the “Halloween” sushi.

Amazing! Ramen is very tasty and the waitress are super nice. Really recommended!

really delicious, best vegan ramen of my life

We had the sushi for 2 which comes on a beautifully decorated rack. Loved everything about it! Will definitely come back and recommend to friends 👌

nice atmosphere, amazing food and really good service. They're really attentive!! Such a comfortable experience. Gonna come visit again for sure

The crispy rolls are extremely delicious. The rest of the food I’ve tried was average. Although it was disappointing that you can pay only with cash (3 stars review is mostly because of that - as a tourist, it is very inefficient).

I'm not much of a vegan, but it was very tasty 😋. It is very well attended. A reservation is recommended. I liked it and can recommend it with a clear conscience. 👍

Wow wow wow, what a great meal that was! The dishes were excellently prepared and tasted just as great. BEST SUSHI IN TOWN! If we didn't live in Switzerland, we would come here to eat every day. We can definitely recommend it =D

very tasty Japanese curry! good selection of vegan sushi. 👌 Card payment only from 30 euros.

Pay only with cash or EC card...

The restaurant offers very tasty, completely vegan food, which really impressed me. The ambience is particularly pleasant: stylish and inviting, so you immediately feel at home. The service is also commendable – attentive and friendly. However, there was one big drawback for me: the payment options. In 2024, in addition to cash, only debit cards (from €30 🥴) will be accepted here. This creates unnecessary inconvenience and really seems like it's out of time.

Extremely delicious vegan ramen. I always enjoy coming by when I'm in Berlin.

We had the Shoyu Ramen and thought it was delicious! The noodles and broth tasted great and the portion size was also very appropriate We'd love to come back!

Delicious vegan ramen! And a very nice ambient.

Atmospheric Japanese vegan restaurant. Frame, bibimbap and sushi (especially the variant for 2,3 or 4 people is very nicely presented.

Really great vegan place with good attention to detail in the dishes. Everything was really tasty, and there were a lot of options to choose from. The service was great and fast, and they even treat us with a little invention from the chef for free :) The quality price ratio was fair due to the complexity of the sushi pieces and dishes. The place was also very cozy.

Seldom eaten as deliciously as here. An absolute recommendation!

Cozy furnishings, the food was tasty (recommended: edamame hummus with mushrooms and truffle oil) and the staff was great

Tantan Ramen Large selection, very tasty food and cozy atmosphere.

The mochi ice cream was super delicious! We'd love to come back :)

Ordered to take away. Very dear waitress, I had a ramen trauma from another restaurant, which is now over, thank you for that 😍, it was delicious. Very spicy and salty, which is why I diluted it a lot with water.

Tantan Ramen and Shirunashi Udon perfect 🫶🏼

Amazing variety of vegan ramen! Tempura avocado was also great

The miso ramen was watery and lacked any real flavour. No sesame or Togarashi on the table to season. The eggplant was also still cold/frozen in the middle?! The gyoza was predominantly mushroom and was ok at best. Highlight was the yuzu ginger tea.

Skillfully prepared plant- and fungi-based dishes that anyone can enjoy, even if you are not a vegan. 7 'starters' were easily enough for 3 people, though we did also order a curry, which was tasty too. My personal favourites were Agedashi Mochi, perfect texture and balanced flavour, and Edamame Hummus, very intense an tasty. Sakura cocktail was lovely, if you like sweet drinks, Yuzu Fizz was very refreshingand balanced, and the Miso Sour was quite unusual and exciting. Will definitely come back and try their sushi too.

Very tasty sushi, we took the menu for 2 people, very good prices. The location is quiet and sunny. The service is very quick and nice.

First day in Berlin and we were really craving ramen! This place only offers vegan🌱 food and it's fantastic! We had the: Tori no Teriyaki balls the Tantan Ramen and the Wantan Ramen. We were very excited and the portions were big enough! Great recommendations. We sat outside as the restaurant was full. Despite this, the atmosphere was pleasant. The service staff were very friendly. Blankets are available for cool days.

Great food, something special ;) Always happy

It was a great evening and incredibly delicious food! Highly recommended💜

The best vegan ramen in Berlin! My favorite is the Tantan ramen, very creamy and flavorful 💫

The starters are super tasty but I can't recommend the Ramen at all. The soup base of the ramens are kind of tasteless and I tried 3 different ones. There are much better vegan options in Berlin.

Such good food and great staff. I can only recommend joining.

Megaaaa, food PERFECT!! Service great, very nice restaurant!

Mega delicious food, nice service and a very cozy atmosphere!

Super nice service and so, so delicious food!! Totally recommended, especially for vegans. Also really nice atmosphere!!!

Always very, very tasty, but once when I was there, the service was unfortunately so understaffed that our food for 7 people came so staggered that the first ones had already eaten before the last ones had their food, but we got two apology desserts . Great store!

Food was great and tasty. Highly recommend for vegans. It’s all vegan. Brilliant!

These guys deserve all the hype.

Fantastic vegan Japanese food in the center of Berlin Friedrichshain ✨ Got the Tantan Ramen and was not disappointed 🙌🏽

Ca does weren’t lighted, doof was ok but a bit flat and my drink was way too strong. The waitress asked me after a while if I like my drink and I told her it’s abbot strong and her response was that there were some ingredients empty so she added more alcohol. I would’ve preferred to get asked if I want to switch before getting a stronger drink than normally

Thanks for the lovely service, we felt completely at home :)

I spontaneously stopped by with my little big Pookie and was in a very positive mood. The ambience is great. Great dark quiet atmosphere with beautiful light and small plants 🪴 and quiet music in the background. The food is absolute madness. An explosion in taste. I have rarely eaten so well. The whole restaurant is clean and the staff is extremely friendly. Thank you for this great short trip to Japan. We'll come back and tell you more. Haja and Hannes

The food was very tasty and high quality and was very clearly prepared. Furthermore, the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Completely vegan menu, exceptional cocktails (I had a Yuzu Frizz, super tasty), and my wonton ramen was really delicious. I can highly recommend :)

Here you can enjoy an evening in a relaxed atmosphere. The staff is super attentive and kind, the food was excellent. The portions are very generous. We'd love to come back.

Top vegan food and interesting, delicious drinks!

Delicious vegan food and always a great service and evening!

Simply delicious and great service!

Super delicious food and really nice service!

It was our second visit today, our first one earlier this year was also great. Today we had the Yasai Gyoza and Vegan Chicken Crispy Roll + Midori Special Roll, the sushi was amazing. Really glad to have such a good fully vegan japanese food spot in town :)

Super delicious food and pleasant atmosphere. The vegan chicken is highly recommended, we'll be happy to come back.

Enjoyed excellent ramen, king oyster mushrooms and yuzu mochi in a lovely atmosphere.
