    Disappointed, went because of the positive reviews but felt kinda like a rip off for the price. The gyozas were not well fried and the ramen was light on noodles and porc. Finally the staff were handling the cash and the food with their bare hands and lacked seriousness and professionalism.

    Good food, overall fun experience if you dine in! It was however pretty expensive for quantity served, not great price/value ratio in my opinion.

    My ramen was missing the egg that was in the description and photo...(one of my favorite ramen toppings), but with language barriers, I didn't ask if I translated wrong. However, the broth was so rich and full of flavor I did not miss it...just the broth alone made me happy. For the record, The staff, a young woman and a gentleman were both very nice and I am sure they would have corrected the missing egg if I really felt it was needed. The atmosphere was like being in a Tokyo ramen shop...perhaps with fewer "rules" lol. Very happy.

    Tasty noodles and I love noodle soup. Small place and can fill up rapidly. Service and a fast and concept is simple but efficient. You can pick the type of noodles then the ingredients then how spicy you want it. Gyoza was yummy also. Staff is helpful and very nice. Good location busy a block from the marché de Noël.

    Great to see that Nantes can offer proper Ramen! Succulent bouillons filled with umami, futsu noodles and great sides. Simple et efficace. Highly recommended if you have a ramen crave. And also staff was nice, caring and smiling.

    Great ambiance and service, it’s a kind of trendy and young ramen place in Nantes. I have been to Nantes many times but never knew this place exists. I like how efficient it is, you pay upfront then you get a seat, so the turnover is quite fast despite the queue being long. The staff was super friendly and kind. We sat at the counter and there was sufficient place under the table to hang bags and coats so it was very convenient. I would not really say the quality of the noodle soup was that great. I ordered the jigoku with spice level 2. The noodles were a bit soggy (instead of normal I should have taken Al denté for the noodles…), the egg was a bit powdery, soup a bit salty and not chilly at all, but the meat was good though. We also ordered the chashu don, the chicken dices were pasty with a bit of sauce on top, a bit of a boring dish unfortunately…

    I came to eat with my wife and baby yesterday while on holiday and we were pleasantly surprised at how good the ramen was. I had the miso ramen, and I haven't tasted anything better than this anywhere since being in Japan. The prices were reasonable. The staff were friendly and spoke good english. They even sorted an ikea high chair for my daughter to try her first ramen! Would definitely return here if we ever end up in Nantes again.

    I’ll confidently say this THE ramen experience. A couple of friends and myself were about to leave the city when we stumbled into this place. It is truly delicious and service is great. The vibe reminded me of my time in Japan. One small hint: if you like spicy go for low, medium will mess you up and high will atone your sins. The Club 188 boys wholeheartedly recommend it!!!

    This prob one of my top 5 ramen places in Europe, as soon as you walk in, they serve like japanese way. Ask me about which noodle I prefer and how I want to get done? Perfect! From noodle to broth, egg to meat, well done! Merci !

    Stopped by the ramen restaurant by chance. The soup is strong enough and the noodles were cooked well. We’re from Taiwan and have tried quite a lot Ramen in Asia, I would say this ramen is local, good and recommended. Also the price is reasonable in Europe :)

    Great ramen, great service! Loved everything about this place. Service was fast and efficient :) thank you! Watch out for the spicy, level 1 for me was enough.

  • 5/5 Victoria Le D. 1 year ago on Google • 16 reviews
    Absolutely delicious soups, very kind service and fun vibe make us want to dine there each time we are in Rennes or Nantes

    Best ramen place I have visited

    Eating at Ramen Ya is always a pleasure. The food is delicious, the staff is warm and welcoming, and the service is quick. 10/10 recommend.

  • 5/5 May M. T. 1 year ago on Google
    I tried many ramen restaurants in France and so far this is the best. I recommend to go there a bit early than usual meal times as the space is small (there is queue most of the time)

  • 5/5 Ayush D. 1 year ago on Google
    Visited the shop today, the food was tasty and fulfilling and the staff friendly. It is a quite little place, might miss it if not attentive. Visit it when in Nantes.

  • 5/5 Katerina D. 1 year ago on Google
    We visited this place on Sunday for lunch. There was a queue before us, but we did not wait for a long time. The ramen was delicious! The sake was ok and the gyozas were tasty! Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Jordi K. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic meal, good atmosphere, kind staff. Absolutely a recommendation!!

  • 5/5 NeeNa 11 months ago on Google
    Nice Ramen restaurant! The noodle is delicious. They propose many vegetarian options (with tofu instead of pork/chicken). It can get crowded at lunch time (with a long queue in front of), so it is better to get there when they just open the shop (11h30). 😉

  • 5/5 Polina R. 1 year ago on Google
    The chicken ramen has sent cold minty chills to my forehead, and my partner could feel the spice in his ear. And that’s spice level 2 out of 3! Loved it.

  • 5/5 Ben W. 11 months ago on Google
    Amazing food, awesome staff ! We arrived pretty much at closing time and they still served us. It was delicious !

  • 4/5 Michel El G. 1 year ago on Google
    The service was great, they were really caring and welcoming ! The Ramen was delicious, beautifully seasoned with flavor ! The only reason I am giving it 4 stars is that the spice levels is not accurate enough ( they offer level 1, 2 and 3) I picked 1, it was soo spicy. I would recommend if you want to order to specify that the spice level is half the quantity of level 1 so that the spice dont overpower the delicious taste of their ramen, now unless you love spicy dont bother about this part of the review:)

    The only proper ramen place in Nantes! I'm a regular since they've opened a couple of years ago. The owners brought what they've seen and learnt in Japan to make a difference on the Ramen that France get to experience. C'est très très bon

    I’m not big fan of asiatic food but I tried this with my husband, it tasted great and Gyoza is perfect

  • 5/5 Vartika M. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a fabulous tiny ramen place! They have three levels of spicy ramen. I went for level 3, and boy was I in for an awesome surprise. Just a brilliant combination of flavours packed in a hot bowl. I am go on to be coming back here every week. P.S: Such helpful staff and an amazing manager Tenzin 💕

    The place is a bit small but cozy, the vegan ramen was good and the staff friendly.

    Great food! I love it! Be aware that for takeaways the waiting time is two fold. Expect to wait in the queue for about 20 min to order, and then wait for about 30-40 min for the order being prepared on a typical Saturday noon. Based on multiple experiences, it’s faster to eat in than to takeout. For takeaway, looks like the online delivery platforms are given priority. Anyway, wait time aside, I love the food here and that's why I’m going to keep coming back!

    I absolutely loved it! I’m an American visiting France and I heard about this place through social media, so I decided to try it out. Did not disappoint! They even tried to speak English to me (which wasn’t necessary, but I appreciated it so much!). Overall, beautiful experience and I’ll definitely return.
