Wow, this place is amazing! The food was cooked and served quickly and tasted delicious. My partner and I both had perfect dishes and were very full and satisfied from our food. The staff were so friendly and the water to our table was a nice touch on a hot day. We will definitely be returning to try more dishes from the menu.
Went for our monthly date night as we are both fond of japanese/asain food. Everything was really good. Wonderfully decorated, well presented and delicious food and great selection of sake which I loved. The Chilli Squid was a highlight. Only bad side was the waitress who spilled water over the table, apologised and then left us to clean it up. But that aside, great place and will return.
I had an amazing experience during my first visit to this restaurant. The establishment impressed me with its exceptional cleanliness. I decided to try the volcano salmon donburi, while my partner opted for the salmon in teriyaki sauce. Both dishes exceeded our expectations and were truly exquisite. It was an exciting opportunity for me to savour these flavors for the first time.
Had an amazing dinner here. Their ramen is authentic, the soup is so tasty, and sushi are great too. Staff are very friendly and the whole place is so clean. Love it and highly recommend it to anyone who likes Japanese food. Probably the best Japanese restaurant in Newcastle.
The food was incredible. Not sure on Yuzu juice but all good. Staff were excellent as well
A lovely relaxed experience.
They accommodated for having a child, keeping some of the sauces separate.

Served a very delicious lunch.
Would recommend
Probably the best Japanese place I’ve been in the UK. The vibe is chill and authentic. Ramen and tea taste incredible.
We had a delicious and authentic bowl of Japanese ramen with all the trimmings and with extra pulled pork!. Also, the carafe of cold Meijou sake went down a treat on such a sunny day. Service and atmosphere was perfect and would highly recommend. My lunch partner on this day was Japanese and she felt as enthusiastic about the meal as me, and also happy that a resturant such as Butakun is now present in Newcastle.
Cannot fault the service, the waiting staff were really cheerful and helpful. The food was well presented and taste was fine but nothing was outstanding, especially the ramen (would have liked a fattier broth, softer soya eggs, fall-apart pork). Might have expected better for the price.
I Would totally recommend this place to anyone that loves japanese food, ive gotta say this is now my Favourite one in newcastle of ones ives been to so far, First time going today, Choice to come on my own, really Friendly staff nice atmosphere didn't wait was seated straight away, Lot to choose from on the menu, even the food come quickly, id say it's a little on the expensive side But which one isnt but totally worth it I'd say and will totally be coming back.
My pictures don't do this place justice but promise it was really nice and filling.
Choose spicy chicken tori soup.
