    Chicken kara-age and gyoza are superb starters.

    Pricey but delicious bowl of Tonkotsu. Try it! Goes well with the 8 Ball IPA

    The ambience is awesome, the food is average, the miso ramen is the worst I've ever had. So many alternatives in town it's pretty hard to find an excuse to come here. Doesn't live to the hype.

    Tonkotsu soup got taste and Tokyo Ramen pork tasted good. But not quite Japanese style as advertised. £11 for a rather cold ramen (should be hot). The egg and fish on the ramen soup were cold too. BAD

    Karaage is delicious!

    The Ramen here is cheap and decent enough (Tokyo Ramen recommended). Sides aren't great, though - Gyoza is mediocre. Opt for Bone Daddies on Peter St. instead if you've got a few extra £s to spare.

    Nice soups, small portions, as is the place, I felt like a number and being rushed through my dinner. Feel bad giving negative reviews, but better go to Taro around the corner.

    Amazing tonkotsu ramen. A little scoop of chili oil from the jar on the table makes it just perfect! So much flavor, yum. Cozy place for a relaxed but quick meal.

    Service was slow and unfriendly, waited over 30 minutes for gyoza, and 20 minutes for our ramen, and the restaurant was only half full. Wouldn't mind if the food was good, but Shoryu is much better.

    Servjng was decent. Tonkotsu broth (as of 07/12) was thin and watery. Comes with bean sprouts which is a rarity among other, more authentic tonkotsu ramen. Chasiu was fatty and ok. Not recommended.

    I vote this the best ramen place in London! Way better than Shoryu or Bone D's. The Tonkotsu is just perfect and the pork gyoza are the best I've ever had!

    They added 10% service charge to my bill and tried to take away my utensils whilst I was waiting for the main course to be served. The tonkotsu soup was OK, but have had better. Too watery.

    Staff were very bad tempered and didn't mind showing it which was a shame. Ramen was okay but Shoryu and Japan Centre both on Lower Regent st are better
