Service is really good which is typical of Japan.

    Delicious Ramen. My coworkers brought me here since it's where Keanu Reeves likes to go. It did not disappoint. We waited out side for about 15 minutes before we were able to sit down. It was a fun experience.

    One of the better Ramen joints around in Tokyo. After trying ippudo and ichiran, I found this branding of ramen is comparable or even better in some ways. Noodles are soft and tasty. Broth is savoury and delicious. Condiments are also fresh and flavorful. There are also unique beer served in the restaurant called Guarana. Ambience is funky and yet retro. However you are facing the walls when you dine so I find it quite good as you can focus on your food. Place is quite small but there's no crowd. Staff knows English and there's English menu too so no problem for tourists. Price may be on the high side so not much locals around. Overall, it is a fine dining experience and highly recommended for tourists.

    From my perspective as a tourist, this place has a real authentic vibe. Small but cosy and very quick service. The vegan ramen is absolutely delicious. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Akasaka and looking for a quick and easy, filling meal.

    This tiny looking place from outside has a decent seating arrangement inside and can host quite a lot people. Located very close to major working spots around, this place very interestingly offers VEGAN ramen too among all the other options. Had some really tasty ramen here and definitely going to visit again. The staff were extremely friendly and service so smooth.

    Simply great vegan ramen full of flavor. Service is fast and on point. Sitting area is maybe for 10 ppl at a time. We came at 20:00 on a week day and it was half full. They played classic rock music 🎶 which was fun

    Picked-up by reviews and it did not let us down. I will simply subscribe to other ratings: menu is simple and delicious. Will circle back to try the rest of them:)

    The best ramen I have had in my life. Vegan option available which is just a blast. Cool spot, bit quirky style which only adds to it.

    Most delicious (vegan) ramen we’ve had so far (and I bet it will be hard to beat). Lovely atmosphere, super friendly service. I’ve been here three years ago and came back and it’s still as great as it used to be :) thanks a lot and wish you all the happiness in the world :)

    This is my number 1 Ramen place in Japan. I go here almost every night. The broth of the ramen is thick and full of flavor. I love their half cooked eggs, they just fit really well with the ramen. I always bring my friends here. I always order the meat ramen with thick broth and of course with half cooked egg. In terms of the environment, it's perfect for me since it's just along the way and easy to spot. I was lucky because it's near my place. I also order another set of noodles since their broth is just so good, wanting me to add more noodles. Their noodles are superb too! Sometimes, I order rice and I just mix it with the broth. They have spices available on the table too. While writing this review, I brings memory of me and my friends. After work, I walk there and eat. I just love it and I'm longing for it. I can't wait to go back in the future and eat here again. I hope by that time, I can still see the front guy who always serves me with a smile. I'm not sure if I can remember him myself but they have an amazing crew. I love this place. Very well recommended.

    This is a place in our neighborhood that we thought we would try. My partner isn't used to how you order ramen and so we entered without having our orders ready, which irritated the wait staff, but they eventually told us to sit down and told us to order after. My only complaint was despite the fact that I speak Japanese, and was speaking to the waiter in Japanese, he kept answering me in English which he didn't speak well - which only added to a sort of confusing situation. Regardless, the ramen is pretty good. I had the Kyushu jangara with no menaiko (spice roe), and I was impressed with the freshness of the flavors and the generous portions of meat. Prices are quiet reasonable as ramen should be. Overall, it's a good little ramen place, with "no nonsense" service. Worth a visit if you like mane.

    Hot & spicy ramen + rainy night = perfect combination! Added-on chuck of pork is worth spending, soft-boiled egg goes well with the spicy soup. Noodles are soft yet chewable. Restaurant is not big so might not convenient for group. Atmosphere in this place gives very japanese vibe.

    Very good Ramen, one of the best I ever had. Place is small and not designed for groups; really just for single visitors, English menu and not expensive. Easy to find (just look for the picture above the door). Highly recommend, but don't go with a group.

    I’ve lived in Japan for 4 years and this is one of my top 5 favorite ramen spots. Small space with incredible food, definitely worth trying this unique bold ramen.

  • 5/5 Koala B. 7 months ago on Google • 5 reviews
    Didn’t really have high expectations before going. But actually turned out to be the best ramen i had during my trip. Ramen was sooo good. I never thought mentaiko(cod roe)would go well with ramen but it was good. Definitely worth adding. The server lady was very nice to us and brought out ramen cutout props for us to take selfies with. Just a fun experience all around!

    I just landed in Tokyo for the first time ever, checked in at my hotel and came here because it was just around the corner. I don't know how this place compares to others, but i enjoyed every bite and every sip of their amazing ramen noodles. What a welcoming meal! Really recommend, cozy and delicious food. Edit: also ate here my last meal in Tokyo and still hold the opinion that this is excellent ramen, the best I had in the city.

    I like the entry of the shop with little English menu. Ramen ia good so why don't you try, they have a picture menu so it's easy to search.

    Super duper yummy ramen. The soup is rich and the spicy one is really good. The atmosphere is also very local. Menu cannot be more simple and easy to order. Highly recommended to try when you're in ginza.

    This place is small but the ramen was legit! I'm happy they have a vegan option but overall very tasty.

  • 5/5 Naoki H. 1 year ago on Google
    Last Desember, I visited this place. Honestly I was just searching for a quick lunch with my friend the first time. We didn't even know if this ramen tasted good/not. But fortunately, it was. Idk about other reviewer but I liked the ramen I ordered. Creamy Tonkotsu (2C). It tasted good, even if not on extreme level. But truthfully, I WOULD visit this shop again, if I got the chance. Besides the price was ok to me. I also went there again on other days with my niece & nephew . They also liked the noodles. Karabon 4C. The soup was according to them so-so but still tasty on the deliciousness bar. That was quite a thing cause the twins were picky!! The inside atmpsphere was quite good (not loud!). Staffs were friendly enough, and they got English menu to help you decide. You needed to pay with card though. I used my ICOCA/Suika Train card which I had top up beforehand om the train station. (Thank God for that! Or I won't be able to pay. They don't accept cash I think). Cold water was free & already on the table, together with the usual ramen seasonings. Others you needed to order. The shop itself was very small and kind of on the tiny side. But because we visited early, there were still available seats. But if you came at peak hour / when it was full, you would find yourself waiting outside, standing! It made me wish they got a bench/chair outside for waiting customer. Then they wouldn't be too tired waiting. Overall good impression & within walking distance to Hotel Mystays Akasaka Premier & the Akasaka Train Station (which last time I saw, had some Harry Potter exhibition!)

    Note: This is a review written retroactively. Unfortunately, I remember the ramen looking much better than it tasted. It was alright, but really nothing special. I imagine it's been adapted to a mainstream clientele.

    Hot and Spicy ramen!! Rich broth and very good noodles .. highly recommend

  • 5/5 Silvia S. 10 months ago on Google
    Super chill and warm environment, there’s an English menu which helps, the host greets you at the front, where you order and pay first before seating ; I ordered the spicy ramen— it was fresh and delicious. Overall, great place and great food

  • 5/5 Daneal H. 11 months ago on Google
    Who would've thought such a small cramped space that could hardly sit more than 12 people produces such good ramen! Good thing is they're also tourist friendly. The soup is out of this world, highly recommend to go for the more thicker soup option and you'll be satisfied for hours! The pork chashu is thick and even though slightly on the fattier side, goes really well with the soup and noodles. And speaking of the noodles, it was done well and with great mouth-feel. Would definitely come back again if we're ever back in Akasaka.
