Ikigai Ramen is a casual Japanese restaurant in Edinburgh known for its strong vegan ramen selection alongside traditional meat dishes. The venue offers a cozy but small setting with modern decor, friendly staff, and reasonably priced dishes. Vegan ramen varieties like the spicy vegantan and fauxkotsu are well-liked, with several reviews praising the flavorful broths and vegan sides though some note that portions can be small and the atmosphere a bit loud and rushed.
