Ippudo
Tonkotsu. Modern and cozy, in Canary Wharf · 1,544 reviews on Google
It's a chain location (Ippudo has several branches in London), so the experience varies depending on the day and the server. A good option for those seeking Japanese authenticity near Canary Wharf, with vegetarian and vegan options on the menu.
Spicy, well-balanced tonkotsu ramen with noodles cooked just right — the quality standard you'd expect from an Ippudo branch, on a good day.

Before you go
Several customers report smaller portions and less chashu — the ramen now comes with only one thin slice of pork belly, and the option to order extra chashu has been removed from the menu.
