Shimbu Sakiya Ramen

Lots of GF options, quiet little spot with attentive staff. Order from machine outside (which has lots of language options) and go inside for fast service.

The fried chicken was fire 5/5. Vegan gf gyoza were decent 3.5/5. Ramen was very mediocre 2/5. Not terrible, but if this was your first time having ramen there is way better. This place would be a fantastic bite after drinking.

Absolutely delicious!! We tried the ramen, gyoza and fried chicken, all were super yummy!

Service was quick and they’re open super late which is great if you would like a late night/early morning feed.

It’s easy to order the gf items off the machine at the front too.

10/10 would go back!

Nice little spot for a quick bite to eat. My brother and I are celiacs, but my friend and other brother are not and they even enjoyed the GF options here. Very, VERY filling. The Fried chicken was also yummy, my brother had the spicy GF ramen with it and said it was very tasty. Not very spicy though. Friendly staff and English friendly. Small space so be mindful if you have large luggage.

Tiny wee place, basic decor! You order at a machine outside the door. Gluten free options and different languages available. Ramen appeared quickly and was delicious. I had the spicy pork one. Got there about 6.30 and straight in but people queuing by the time we finished eating about 7pm. No ill effects.

This was our lunch stop for the day, loved the food. You order from the machine out front (language can be changed to english) there is a gluten free option that lists all available options. I'm celiac and had no side effects from anything ordered, but they do list that they are made in the same location as other allergens so cross contamination could be a factor.

We chose to come back here a second time this week on the strength of the high quality gf options, we had the crispy fried chicken this time in addition to the ramen and gyoza. All delicious, we didn’t get sick at all. You have to order from the vending machine outside, easy to select English language and then the gf menu which shows you all the options you can order. Highly recommended

It should be noted for ease to bring cash to this restaurant. We had to prepay our meals on a machine which did not accept our international card.

Good ramen shop with many options. Ramen was really good and tasty (one of the best enjoyed in Japan), but worth to remark to the staff that you are "really" celiac and need to use dedicated stuff. Orders are taken by a machine that runs quickly out of time: be patient and quick otherwise you will get crazy... :)

Best meal I’ve had in Tokyo so far! Delicious gluten free ramen and fried chicken. Was a little concerned about cross contamination since you order at a machine and there was a bit of a language barrier. I showed my GF Japanese language card and the waiter showed something asking me to acknowledge that it’s a shared facility and then asking if I’d like them to use separate utensils. I didn’t get sick and plan to go back. Would recommend specifying the separate utensils because I don’t think they do that by default

You can easily order your gluten free option from the machine outside the store, there are non-vegan options, the ramen soup is made with miso and in the gf option they don't put the marinated egg. Very good ramen (the spicy one is veeery spicy), the gyoza are gluten free but also vegan, I didn't like those very much.

The kiosk menu was very easy to navigate to select gf items (but a little overwhelming for a foreigner). They have gf ramen, gf fried chicken. The sign on the wall says gf dumplings but they are NOT gf according to the staff. Ramen was delish. Fried chicken was seasoned well. This traveling celiac was extremely happy!

Edit: turns out my friend had just ordered the regular dumplings by mistake - they do have gf dumplings. The food was so good I went back two more times - the fried chicken is so good! And I recommend the spicy miso broth- I don’t have a high spice tolerance but I could handle it and the flavor is bomb.
