Tabata. Pro tip: if you're in a restaurant with a menu item the same name as the place itself, you should probably order it.
rodemanneOctober 12, 2013
Great noodle shop in HK. Vegetable ramen was delicious. Gyoza well seared.
Laura VAugust 30, 2012
Flavor of the Tonkotsu ramen is very good, but only 2 lonely pieces of overcooked pork in the lunch ramen. Places in the E Village provide better quality overall.
nick pancorvoJanuary 2, 2012
The service here is fantastic. And if you're a regular they treat you even better!

Lava Men is pretty great on a cold winter day but I think it's much better with pork than chicken.
Rob ChristensenJune 12, 2012
Geki kara is all spice. Sutamina is heat w flavor. Tabata has coconut milk w clean flavors. Shoyu is solid.

Great food. 🙏🏽
Víctor Daniel GonzálezAugust 3, 2016
Lava noodles are the best, eat at your own risk as they are spicy
Kevin NguyenJune 18, 2013
Sutamina ramen hits the spot. And eat at the counter if you want to watch your food being prepared.
Joanna FlammMay 12, 2013
Awesome pre-theater dinner spot: fast, delish, and out of the Tourist Zone.
Tatiana OrlovNovember 30, 2011
proper noodle shop a block from work right in time for winter? yes, please. will update once I've tried every kind.
Michelle HartmannNovember 4, 2011
Try the Tabata Ramen (spicy coconut brothy goodness) and add a flavored egg to whatever you get!

Brook ShelleySeptember 27, 2015

Try the Garlic Ramen - With soup in the side. I asked for it to be spicy, you know for its cold outside...

Try the Cold Tofu Apetisser - With some great sipping sauce mix. Enough for sharing.
Kristen PeiranoJanuary 3, 2015
Miso ramen broth is delicious but the spicy ramen broth lacks flavor
AlexJuly 21, 2016
lava men and tan tan men are both very yummy!
Alastair TseDecember 29, 2012
Suitable for a quick fix of ramen at a reasonable price. Nothing spectacular but they use my preferred yellow wavy style noodles.

Try the Kara Geki Ramen - Super spicy ramen with an extra soy flavor egg.
Arthemis WhitakerOctober 6, 2014

The tabata ramen itself is a must try. Completely unique and really, really tasty.
QDecember 25, 2013
Tasty... but maybe they should rethink their signage.
Meaghan NolanDecember 16, 2012
Highly recommend the curry ramen.
Lisa FinnApril 13, 2015
Good service, but mediocre food. Ramen broth was extremely salty and the pork was tough to chew. Though the food came out quick, it's obvious it was because time was not put into each individual dish.
Rim KarouiMarch 27, 2015
Authentic japanese ramen! Delicious

Try the Tsukemen Ramen - Getting hotter out. Coming in for cold noodles.
Adriana DelgadoAugust 26, 2013
