78All menus are delicious and all staff are friendly. Especially, Rogier always checks the table for what it needs.:) Thanks a lot
Wow, it's like walking back in Japan, so authentic. The food is just amazing and attention to customer service is outstanding.
They apply a 10% surcharge on weekends which is not verbally mentioned or anything. When I picked up on it, they pointed to a very fine print on a sign at the entrance. I meam I understand public holiday surcharges but not " weekends surcharges" there are much better places to spend your hard earned cash put it this way.
It was alright, wasn’t as good as I expected and didn’t really wow me. There were queues around 1-2pm on a weekday and they don’t take bookings so we had to wait about 15 mins.
Had the ebi fry, black ramen, and karacuchi ramen. The panko on the ebi fry was really nice but just wished there was a bit more prawn inside. The ramen were both pretty good. I liked the noodles and the broth. The pork belly was only grilled on one side though, and they only gave half an egg which is a bit disappointing. The flavours were decent but it’s not really anything special.
The portions were pretty good and the food was decent but I wouldn’t queue up for it.
Very mixed ramen. While the broth had great deep flavours, the noodles were well over cooked and felt like I was eating instant ramen noodles. The chasu pork was decent. Overall just average unfortunately
Delicious food, fast service. If you arrive after 2pm on a weekday you’re at the tail end of the lunch service and won’t need to queue much.
One of the best ramen places, if need to nit pick the noodle can be a bit more elastic and broth can be bit less salty, but generally very high standard. The vibe is really like going to a ramen store in Japan.
Everything got changed! Staff, food taste, even service! I ordered bunch of menu but staff even chef did not check and I had to take it away! I am certain never go back this poor ramen restaurant!
Excellent food and well worth the wait for a table! Only negative was watching the people who were seated 15 minutes after us have their order taken straight away while we were still waiting for someone to take our order, felt a bit like we had to actively flag someone down which was disappointing, but the food well and truly makes up for it.
This place never disappoints! The portions are generous, prices reasonable and the atmosphere is warm. There is sometimes a line, but it moves quickly. Will definitely be back
Great place for a quick ramen bite! Got the vegetarian ramen which was yummy! Loved the interior! Oh and the green tea ice cream is the BeST!
Ordered Edamame and Tsukemen. The noodles were okay and the broth was ok. Nothing to write home about. However I enjoyed the atmosphere and easy menu. I also like that it’s open 24hrs. Give it a go, price point is reasonable.:)
Great place to eat during a cold winter night. Very reasonable portions for the price and the atmosphere was cosy. Will come again.
Definitely not “authentic Japanese Ramen” Broth is bland, soup extremely oily, Korean style pork and is far from authentic. Just as bad as Hakataya Ramen on the Gold Coat. Seating very cramped! Got seated to the bench when I had group of 4.
Great service, good vibes and delicious food! I had the miso ramen minus the pork which made for a great vegetarian meal. Prices were very reasonable also
The food was pretty good for the price but the seating is a nightmare. Your elbows are touching the people next to you and can hear every word of their conversation.
Everything tastes great, specially the broth that many places can't get it right. The only downside of this place is that they do not offer a variety of meat selections. And the amount of meat and veggies in the bowl are the absolute minimum.
Good food but I like the Kyoto ramen in Japan more. We sat beside the bin area where the waitresses clear the dishes! Unfortunately a Chinese man who sat beside us was really disgusting as he blew his nose and left the tissue on the table for the waitress to clear! It would have been a good dining experience if we weren't this unlucky.
Love the place, the ramen is very delicious and the miso flavour is full of umami. We went there twice, it was quiet during the daytime and very crowded during midnight! We waited for about 20mins to be seated around 1am. I love the jelly plum sparkling wine. Highly recommended!
We ordered 2 ramens, 1 gyoza and 1 takoyaki. Overall is fine. But due to the queue and running on 24hours, the service was a bit rushy. They expect you just dine, finish and pay the bills quickly.
Food quality is fine, open for 24 hours is convenient for late night supper.
