    Neat and nice Japanese style ambient to enjoy the food. Most common Japanese foods are available here. I ordered their recommended Ramen is ok. Besides I also ordered unagi Mazesoba which is dry source Soba not bad and kids love the Salmon belly don. Price wise is average. The only complaint is the table cleaning detergent is too smelly which affected my meal mood..

    The thing that surprised me most is that even though the shop is named Ramen, they have more non Ramen choices than Ramen. Which is a good thing. It's more a Japanese food joint than a pure Ramen joint. I was generally ok with the food. The tempura prawn that came with the noodle and rice was nicely crunchy and hot. The flavour on my noodle mix was tasty but I didn't quite like the noodle. Strangely tasted rubbery. The sushi and hana maki were enjoyable though. Even though I felt it was a bit salty, but tasty as a whole. I did enjoy the decor. Simple and relaxing. The staffs were also efficient and courteous. All in all, fairly enjoyable dinner.

    Ramen not so authentic, but is good enough. The portion is generous. Can’t complain for this pricing. Recommended. Around RM25 per person included service tax.

    Packed with people. 5/5 Would love to have a bigger place instead of a 2 person table, not spacious and less comfortable. 3/5 Ambient is nice 5/5 Ramen is slight overcooked which affect the noodle tenderness. Taste is abit lack for me. Prefer heavier soup. Egg is cooked perfectly. Still have room to improve the pork. Actually liked the sushi unagi maki more. Food 4/5 Although busy, attendant is still very attentive and warm. Tea is served quickly when called and spotted empty. Service 5/5 Price is reasonable and affordable. 5/5 Final score 4 stars.

    It's my first time ordered their ramen from Grab delivery! As you can see in the picture how well they packing the food to avoid spilled the soup!! Not just the packaging of the food is good, their Ramen is the best in butterworth I tasted so far!!! I really regrets didn't try it earlier just because of the price. It's 25.90rm! After I eat it I felt that the price is totally worthy and reasonable! The taste not just taste good on tongue but also smells good in the same time when you eat it! Recommend recommend recommend!!!

    Nice fusion Japanese Ramen Quite crowed in weekend and Gonna expect to wait for Queue for around 30min and food serving is slow but worth to waive for a decent Ramen in this region. 😊

    A picture worth a thousand voice. Just finish having dinner there, the cashier is friendly but the food is very unacceptable. As a Malaysian I’m totally ok with the food being served is a bit different from what it shows, but this? This is totally a chaos, we double confirmed if we had the right sushi and the waiter assured that they served the same as we ordered.

    It is a popular Japanese ramen restaurant for the locals here. It was full house when I visited on Saturday night. The restaurant atmosphere is beautiful with sufficient lighting. There are different table sizes for big and small dining groups. The menu is quite extensive. I tried Ichiban Ramen. The cook managed to retain the natural ramen chewiness. The broth was savoury with slight hint of spiciness and not too salty. The prawn tempura was also good. The outer layer was crunchy & the prawn was soft to bite. Surprisingly, it was still crunchy after it cooled down. But the pan-fried dumplings were just average. The manager, Ms. Anne was friendly and attentive. But I hope the waiters will receive more training on how to explain the menu to their diners. I tried to ask the differences between 2 types of ramen but, all he commented was the differences in spiciness level. Perhaps, he was too busy due to short of manpower that night. Overall, it was a good experience & I will consider going back for another bowl of hot ramen or maybe try the dry ramen with corns.

    The food quality is dropping.... The soup too salty. And the matcha taste like a drinking water.. The green tea only green in color, no taste at all.... Kinda disappointed as this used to be our recommended ramen shop.

    Food - 3/5 Staff Service - 5/5 Cleanliness/Ambience- 5/5 Price - 4/5 Overall food was average. The Asari Gekikara was okay, had lots of clams, the spicyness was reduced to our liking. The taco sushi was moderate too... Only little salmon in it with a piece of cucumber and salad, the barter was too heavy. The only thing enjoyable most and satisfying were the takoyakis. Had 5 pieces. Very soft and nice. Sushis were okay. But very little variety compared to other shops probably cause their focus is on ramen. Mochi was nice, but served cold. Not sure why... Usually its served room temperature. Overall okay but food taste and presentation could be improved.. I’d give credits to staff’s attentiveness and Jess was friendly. Shop environment was clean and nice ambience. Waiting time was not too long, about 5-10 minutes. Price was reasonable. They do accept card payments, ewallet Touch and Go and GrabPay.
