We had two ramen vegan version with an egg on top on each and two bottles of beer for 45 pounds. Last time we went there about a year ago we had a better overall impression. Broth was not that rich as we expected to be honest. But still it’s quite okay and good quality! Service is nice and fast. Prepare to queue without a reservation

Best ramen I’ve ever had in the UK! The broth was very rich in flavour and the egg was perfectly cooked. The chef torched every single piece of pork. Love the Takoyaki too, haven’t had such a good one in so long. There are not many seats so would recommend to go early.

Wow the ramen was very good, the broth was really rich and creamy, the jammy egg and springy noodles made the dish all the more delicious, this was a perfect lunch spot that exceeded all expectations (Definitely check it out!)

Love it! The waiters were quick and so friendly. The ramen was flavourful, you get a whole egg as well! And it was so cozy inside, it's quite small so you might not a have spot immediately. Highly recommend!

You get to check out the open kitchen on arrival which was spotlessly clean. It's a fairly small space (I believe there may be more seats downstairs) that's modern and has a convivial atmosphere as a result. Food arrived fairly quickly. Chicken ramen was delicious: broth had depth of flavour but still like with crispy chicken, tasty egg, crunchy green beans and plenty of noodles. Chicken wings were crispy and grease-free with salty and spicy flavours as promised. Pork gyoza were plump and delicious. Chicken karaage was sticky with the sweet teriyaki sauce that was well cooked and delicious. Service was very friendly, great with my allergies and fairly efficient.

The wait took longer than usual, for 2 ramens and 1 gyoza we waited 45minutes. Ramen itself was good, maybe the egg a bit under-marrinated and very little meat, but still tasty.

Freshly prepared ramen to order, proudly served by the proprietors. This adorable little restaurant is definitely worth a visit. They’re serving up delicious noodle bowls (vegan options included). The space only sits eight people, but it’s worth the wait for the cozy atmosphere.

THE BEST RAMEN in the town!!! The soup broth was so authentic and amazing, no MSG added. The side dishes were perfect! Please keep the restaurant same as it is!!! Best comfort food ever!!! I am so happy that I finally find the most authentic ramen place to go in Edinburgh! The delivery was quick!

What a tasty ramen in a street kitchen vibe restaurant. It's small, very small. It can sit only 8 people and around 1 to 2 chefs cook and serve. The price is around £12.5 per ramen bowl and they have enough variety to cater for everyone. The ramen is prepared fresh in front of you and the cooks are really nice. I'm giving 4 stars because the wait can be long and the overall tidiness could be better.. If they get online delivery orders alongside customers waiting in the restaurant, things naturally slow down given how small they are. Though it's a street kitchen kind of relaxed atmosphere, sitting in the restaurant and looking around, things seemed untidy such as the cleaning / storage cabinet left open with rapeseed oil, kitchen rolls etc. Overall it's a really nice restaurant aiming to offer authentic ramen dishes. I'd recommend you visit.
