★ Customisable Japanese curry rice with halal toppings; pick your rice size and spice level
Permanently closed. CoCo Ichibanya's halal-certified Akihabara branch and its Shinjuku sister shop shut during the 2020 pandemic and have not reopened — as of 2026 there is no halal-certified CoCo Ichibanya in Japan. For halal Japanese curry and other options, see our halal fast-food chains guide and halal Tokyo guide.
A fifth-generation wagyu family's alcohol-free basement grill in Ginza serving 100% halal-certified Japanese wagyu steaks and burgers, so every traveller can taste real wagyu. (The halal kitchen is the basement venue.)
A Sri Lankan-Muslim owner's wholly halal-certified ramen shop where collagen-rich chicken broth meets a fiery soy-sauce kick, steps from Assalaam Mosque.
★ Kuroge wagyu sukiyaki, simmered tableside in house warishita
Founded in 1895, this Tabelog Top-100 sukiyaki house simmers exquisitely marbled Kuroge wagyu in its signature warishita while kimono-clad staff tend the pot at your table.
A hushed, wood-warmed Shibuya kissaten since 1989 whose charcoal-roasted hand-drip coffee, served in carefully chosen antique cups, is said to have inspired Blue Bottle's founder.
Fully plant-based, build-your-own falafel pitas and hummus bowls inside Shibuya PARCO — a fast, affordable vegan refuel between the neighbourhood's shopping and nightlife.
★ Brown-rice (genmai) bread and gluten-free taiyaki
A dedicated gluten-free, rice-flour bakery counter in the basement of Shibuya Scramble Square, making breads, taiyaki and sweets with no wheat, additives or white sugar, and many items are vegan and dairy-free. It is a grab-and-go bakery rather than a sit-down meal, and as a dedicated GF facility cross-contamination risk is low though not certified celiac-safe.
★ Vegan kara-age (plant-based 'fried chicken') and vegan gyoza
A fully plant-based izakaya in the basement of Shibuya PARCO serving vegan 'fried chicken', gyoza and lemon sours, with no meat, fish, eggs, dairy or honey, so the fish-dashi trap does not apply. It is not gluten-free, as the mock-meat batters and soy sauce contain wheat.
★ Plant-based nigiri and sushi sets using vegetable alternatives to fish
A sit-down plant-based sushi restaurant in Shoto (near Shibuya) where every piece is made without seafood or animal products, so there is no fish dashi to worry about. It is not gluten-free (soy sauce and some components contain wheat); reservations are recommended and the venue opened its permanent location in late 2025.
