Billed as one of Japan's first halal sushi restaurants, serving Edo-mae nigiri where the soy sauce, vinegar and toppings are halal-verified (certification via the Japan Halal Foundation), with a small prayer room nearby. Note it also operates as an izakaya, so confirm with staff which dishes are alcohol-free.
★ Spicy shoyu chicken ramen with halal-verified ingredients
A halal chicken-ramen counter near Karasuma/Shijo from the Ayam-Ya group, third-party halal-certified (by the Malaysia Halal Corporation), fully pork- and alcohol-free with separate halal storage and tableware, an English menu and a prayer room. It is effectively a lunch-only shop and closes midweek, so check hours before visiting.
★ 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.
★ Rich chicken-paitan ramen topped with spicy fried chicken
A halal ramen specialist near Ebisu Station serving rich chicken-paitan bowls plus Japanese sides, with an English menu and prayer space. The Ebisu branch is halal-certified (the chain obtained certification in 2020); confirm the certifying body on the in-store certificate, as Honolu's other branches vary.
★ Customisable Japanese curry rice with halal toppings; pick your rice size and spice level
The halal-CERTIFIED branch of Japan's biggest curry chain, certified by NAHA (Nippon Asia Halal Association) with halal ingredients, separate utensils and a pork- and alcohol-free kitchen. Note that only this Akihabara branch is certified, not other CoCo Ichibanya locations.
★ Premium nigiri like otoro and jumbo sweet shrimp at modest prices
A popular conveyor-belt sushi restaurant on the 8th floor of Seibu Shibuya, praised for generous cuts of quality fish at modest prices; lines are common. Seafood-forward and good for solo diners, but not gluten-free.
A long-running, hugely popular sushi restaurant inside Shibuya Mark City known for large, value-for-money nigiri; expect a wait and use the ticket system. Seafood-forward and well-suited to pescatarians, though not gluten-free.
★ Tempura fried in 100% gluten-free rice-flour batter with house-made gluten-free soy sauce and broth; wagyu and seafood tempura bowls are highlights
A counter tempura restaurant whose entire menu is gluten-free (rice-flour batter plus house-made GF soy sauce and broth) and which is halal certified. It is not a separate dedicated GF facility, so highly sensitive celiacs should confirm cross-contact directly; vegetarian tempura courses are also offered.
★ Handmade miso soup with organic vegetables, paired with onigiri
A miso-soup-and-onigiri specialist near Kaminarimon serving dashi-based soups with organic vegetables; most bowls are dashi and miso based with no dairy (the 'creamy' soup uses soy milk, not milk). For severe allergies, confirm ingredients with staff.
★ Vegan tempura, waffles and seasonal plant-based plates
A fully plant-based restaurant near Asakusa Station where every dish is vegan, additive-free and gluten-free, so it is dairy-free by definition. A per-dish allergen chart is published, so check it for nut content; we have not confirmed it is nut-free and do not tag it as such.
A cafe a 2-minute walk from Kaminarimon serving food without pork or alcohol, using halal meat alongside vegan and vegetarian dishes. Muslim-friendly / pork- and alcohol-free, not third-party halal-certified.
A halal-CERTIFIED ramen shop (no pork) about 7 minutes from Asakusa Station, building its broth from over 20 varieties of wagyu beef and seasonings, with a dedicated prayer room. Sister concept to Gyumon's Shibuya wagyu yakiniku.
