A really authentic ramen spot in a cozy cafe setting — I highly recommend the Raizo Craft Cola too.
-
The tonkotsu ramen was genuinely one of the best bowls I've had in Vancouver — rich and perfectly balanced without being too heavy.
-
The tonkotsu broth was so rich and deeply flavored that I drank every last drop straight from the bowl.
-
The broth had a deep, complex flavor from hours of preparation, and the noodles had the ideal texture.
-
It's their clear broths I crave — pure and clean on the palate, yet still full of umami.
-
The noodle had just the right firmness, and the soup was creamy without being milky.
-
One of the best ramen places in Vancouver — I love their Cha-shu Hakata Tonkotsu.

Amazing ramen and the tastiest takoyaki I've ever had, plus a wonderful spicy tonkotsu miso.

The most delicious vegan ramen I've ever eaten.

Really good food and even better service — I felt like I was in Japan.
