Reviews
"Shoyu ramen: broth is quite weak - the stock probably needs some work. Chashu was tender and flavourful but didn't quite fit in with the rest. Would have liked to see the extra step taken to shape it properly rather than leaving it rectangular. Egg was simply hard-boiled, rather than marinated and with liquidy yolk as is common. It was also cold. Noodles were not quite as chewy as I'd like ramen to be. 4/10. Takoyaki - heated from frozen. My first one was still ice cold in the center. The rest seemed to have been heated more evenly. Outer shell was nice and crispy but the dough was nearly liquid. Very little squid. 2/10."
"The atmosphere and service was OK. One of the ramen ordered (the Tonkotsu ramen) would have benefited from more flavour."
"Great little neighbourhood Ramen restaurant, came here a few times, food standard and services consistently very good. Very well priced for Mt Eden. The highlights for me always are some ramen you can choose up to 4 levels of spiciness, short waiting time and really fresh, delicious appetisers."
"What we ordered: Cherry and pomegranate soda $5.5 Shoyu ramen $19 + Gyoza Karaage chicken Takoyaki (I don't remember how much any of these cost) I ordered the shoyu ramen and the noodles were bouncy and delicious. The broth was really nice and savoury but I would still recommend you douse it in garlic and sesame cause it just makes everything better. The pork was also very thick cut and tender, which I loved. I also tried a little bit of the chicken from someone else's ramen but it was very juicy and not dry at all so yay!! The gyoza were delicious, the karaage chicken was super crunchy and still juicy on the outside and the takoyaki never fails. My only real complaints were that the egg was a bit cold and I wasn't a huge fan of the drinks. The food is amazing, the drinks are not (except for the calpico soda which is incredible)"
