About
Izakaya Masaka is a fully vegan izakaya on the basement floor of Shibuya Parco, in the Chaos Kitchen food hall. The format follows a classic izakaya setup: small shareable dishes designed to go with drinks. Everything on the menu is plant based. The focus is on soy meat karaage coated in tapioca flour for extra crunch, available in multiple sauce variations. The rest of the menu rounds out with gyoza, mapo tofu, and other bar food staples, all reworked without animal products. It reads more like a casual drinking spot than a health food restaurant, which is part of what makes it unusual in Tokyo's vegan scene.
Good to know
- The karaage comes in five flavors: grated radish, Chinese black vinegar, Sichuan spicy, sweet and sour, and teriyaki mayo.
- The teishoku set (karaage or gyoza, rice, soup, pickled mustard greens) runs around ¥1,300 at lunch. The lunch format includes three pieces each of karaage and gyoza.
- Allium-free options are available for those avoiding onion and garlic.
- Located on the B1F of Shibuya Parco. The basement food hall can be disorienting to navigate but signage appears throughout.
- Open 12:00 to 22:00. Small interior with approximately 20 seats; peak hours often draw queues.
