Everyday People in Nottingham

A lovely ramen an a very wet day

Such a lovely place! The atmosphere and decor are very nice! The customer service is 10/10. Had the vegan ramen and it was very tasty, however I wish they had a protein like tofu! It would’ve made the ramen a 10/10. Specially for the price (£1 cheaper than the meat ones), I would be more than fair adding a piece of protein.

What a groovy little place! Came here for food before a gig a couple of weeks ago and it was such a lovely experience. All of the flavours were beautifully thought out. We had the crispy chicken skin which had a great crunch and a small kick, they were like elevated pork cracklings The ramen bowls were incredible, the flavours in the broths were so unique. The Shio bowl had an incredible citrus undertone, and was perfectly rich and had so much depth. The brothless duck dish (the name escapes me) was stunning, duck breast and crispy duck leg, with an egg yolk and noodles + various vegetables, this was so rich and creamy, and I liked that it required you to vigorously stir it to make the most of it! The drinks on offer were amazing, unfortunately they were out of the negroni on offer, however the other drinks were nicely curated, the mikkeller Rice Lager was very tasty. However the Apple Everyday was amazing, creamy strawberry foam on top and a tart apple cocktail beneath, really unique. All in all an amazing experience and really elevated our trip to Nottingham, service was lovely and we would come back if we were ever here again.

Second time here and another fantastic Ramen experience! Slightly disappointed the Prawn toast was not available. I really enjoyed the Tan Tan

Nice place but expensive. Ramen was good, but not really traditional, unlikely to go back there.

Superb! Almost certainly the best ramen I've ever had. So good to see a couple of choices of veggie options too! We sat outside on a Friday night, and it was the perfect experience. The service was immaculate too. Full marks.

The food here was absolutely beautiful. Both the chicken ramen and the Laksa were divine. We sat at the counter and got to see them make the food and they put time and care into every single bowl. The chef made sure we were happy with the food and everyone was super friendly

It’s rare to find a ramen place that does such a creative take on laksa while staying true to its roots. The depth of flavour and attention to detail in every component made it a standout. If you’re looking for something unique and flavourful, the laksa ramen here is a must-try!

What a restaurant! Lives up to the hype & more! Corn dogs and prawn toast to start - both genuinely blew us away. Duck Ramen & Seafood Ramen - 10/10. We had a wonderful waitress who really made the experience. Wicked decor too, brilliant vibe! 😊

Had lunch here for the first time without having booked a reservation. Chris was our waiter and was super accommodating despite them being mega busy. He also spent some time giving us some great recommendations on the menu. Superstar service and incredible food. Won’t be the last time we’ll be eating here! I highly recommend their corndog 😍

Very good all round experience. Fantastic ramen, and the atmosphere was particularly good. Thanks to those that served us.

Phenomenal food and brilliant service. One of the best restaurants in Nottingham. I highly recommend thank you for a lovely evening.

Tasty ramen! Bit pricey for what it is but decent place.

A disappointing experience. While the restaurant is beautifully decorated inside, the food was mediocre at best. We ordered 3 different ramens, all of which were awfully over salted. I am aware ramen broths are high sodium, but this was off the charts. Additionally, the restaurant had the incorrect pricing on their system and tried to overcharge us for drinks.

Excellent Ramen, been here at least a dozen times, the ramen is on point every time, great starters, good drinks, highly recommended

Loved the Tan Tan men. Ordered extra noodles too🥰

Lovely tan tan ramen and pickle plate Worth the money, as the food is very nice

This independent restaurant is worth every single bit of hype it receives. The most delicious ramen, freshly cooked, piping hot, made right in front of you in the open kitchen, along with a menu that changes with the seasons, offering a range of sides and drinks. This place is a must-visit in Nottingham. The restaurant is super comfy and has such a cool vibe, and the staff are friendly and fun. The food is just knockout good, and the prices are so reasonable for the freshness and deliciousness of the food. I would highly recommend the shrimp crackers, as well as ANY ramen. Also, ask your server for the range of lemonades on offer - I've tried so many now but still want to try more! My favourites are the lychee lemonade and the blueberry lemonade. The lunch deal is amazing. This is the best place to eat in the city, by far.

I came here on the off chance as a loan diner on a Saturday evening. I walked past had a look in and liked what I saw. I was placed on the counter so had the advantage of watching the kitchen staff at work. I plumped for the rice lager, very good it was too. Firstly there were the Japanese pickles, crunchy carrots, spring onions in soy, mooli and unctuous cucumber. The main event was a comforting broth with noodles, courgette, edemame, pak Choi and a boiled egg. Superb and really well balanced. To finish was a citrusy digestif. A great meal in a pleasant environment, with efficient and hard working staff. If you are In Nottingham, you must try this place. Hearty recommended.

Wonderful Staff thanks for the great day from DF keg

Great people lovely place From dfk

Amazing place thanks for the great day from DF keg team

This place is amazing. I went here today my 3rd time. It's that good, I had to go back. I took my my friend who had never been. We shared the starters of the prawn toast and some of this fried squash thingy. Both were amazing. But I have to say the Prawn toast was one of the best things we've ever had. Its like the prawn is injected into the bread. Literally amazing. It's spongy, and soft. I have never really eaten anything like it. The Ramens are the best in the Nottingham. I'm not a Vegan but I had the Vegan choice because I'm a massive mushroom fam. It's unreal. My mate had the belly of pork one. He said it was next level. I can't say because he would not let me share. But all in all this is the king of Ramen. Love it. I have to add the beer choice is quality too. Rice lager beer really complements all the food. Booom.

Been today for the 2nd time, Absolutely fantastic, well priced and amazing food. Service quick and efficient. Great beer on tap.

So I have been making homemade broths/ Dashi for Ramen for some years now.. it's extremely difficult I'm very time consuming so I hold a lot of respect for what I have eaten today the broths were very complex with a deep flavour profile. I was extremely impressed with the tan tan ramen exploding with that unami flavour.. probably one of the best marinated eggs I have had! The noodles were cooked perfectly still had the perfect amount of chew.. Never had a Korean corn dog before and that was fantastic highly recommend and the service was spot on.. also the homemade apple lemonade was brilliant.. hats off to you chaps

AVOID. AVOID. AVOID. What an awful place to try and eat. The sound bouncing off the hard surfaces makes it impossible to think, let alone hear. I thought that the whole point of eating out was to be social, not here. A complete waste of time and money. With so many places to eat out in Nottingham I’d avoid here at all costs. It’s not for people with ADHD/autism or those with hearing aids, or people over 25. They really should put an advisory on the door. Head over to the restaurant next door as that place is always effortlessly delicious or the Japanese place on Carlton road. Also, isn’t it time in this multi-gendered age to train your staff to address people in a more inclusive way other than the patriarchal ‘guys’? The food may have been nice but I’ve never gobbled anything up so fast as to exit the place as quick as possible. Oh no I remember now, the ‘tender’ pork could just about be torn apart with teeth and hands working furiously. As I say there are better places with more welcoming interiors than everyday people.

Really lovely, came at lunch time and the ramen was unreal

It’s not everyday it’s your birthday, so where do you go to celebrate? Everyday People of course (or so I thought). I ordered the Shoyu; whilst the meat was delectable, the broth was a bit too salty and I found my arteries begging me to stop halfway through. Unfortunately that wasn’t the only body part begging for mercy that night…As this is a food review and I imagine whoever is reading this is famished, I will spare you the details but let’s say the food came out as quickly as it went in…The service was decent, and our waiter was friendly, however despite being a hopeless ramen-tic, this place fell shio-rt of my expectations.

Overall a great restaurant, the service was quite and very friendly, recommendations were delicious and the edamame is like none I have had before! Would 100% return

Excellent quality food. Amazing flavours. My wife had the tonkotsu and I had the Laksa. The Laksa was loaded with scallops and mussels which was lovely. Normally you find one or two of each. We also had the beef tartare sharing starter and would recommend this to anyone. Service was excellent and very friendly. Will definitely be returning.

Amazing food, great veggiie/vegan options! All staff super friendly and service really quick. Thank you! :D

Honestly one of the most memorable and enjoyable meals I’ve ever had. Crazy taste combinations that just all worked. Big shout out to the beef tartare and chicken skin. Can’t wait to go again!

Fantastic food, amazing service. Truly one of the best ramens I’ve ever had. Well worth a detour to try.

The best ramen you will find in Nottingham! Even though the menus aren’t that clear (and could really do with some photos being added!) the food is amazing. Hands down, a must try! 🍜

One of the best ramen I’ve had! I was only in Nottingham for a night for work and I’m so glad I chose to eat here! Staff were really friendly and the whole vibe was just very chill and lovely. I had the mushroom vegan ramen and it was soooooo tasty! Will absolutely be going back if I visit Nottingham again 💞

As an Asian i wouldn't say the food here is authentic (which is why you don't see any Asian customers there😂), but it’s “customised” alright! Ingredients they used are fresh and good quality which could be the best selling point, but some dishes is a bit disappointing- Tan Tan noddle is nothing like real Tan tan noddle and way too salty. Price is much higher than it should be. Good customer service tho, which is the reason I’ll give a 4/5

Fantastic Tonkotsu ramen for a great price

lovely ambience, pretty good food and lots of drink options. -1/2 a star for lack of the thai creme brulee i was craving!

Hadn't been before but of course it had been reviewed by a national critic so off we went to see for ourselves. Brilliant food with open kitchen and vibrant - would highly, highly recommend.

Really wanted to come here as I've heard such great things from family and friends. It was a Sunday but before a bank holiday Monday, so we thought we'd check in case it was open a bit later given the day off the next day. When we arrived, the door was open with the 'open' sign facing towards me. However, it looked fairly empty, though there was plenty of bowls still on the table. We went outside again to double check the opening times on the menu, and a man (seemingly the chef?) came out aggressively stating that they're closed and they shut at 6. I brushed it off and tried to be light hearted by saying the sign made it appear that it was still open, and was met again with a very rude response. We were quite accepting of the fact that it may have been closed, but just thought we'd check on the off chance. There was no need for this aggressive manner. It really shocked both my friend and I, which unfortunately stayed with us the whole evening. I was really looking forward to trying out such highly recommended food, but will be avoiding now.

Wow, love this place. I can’t believe it’s been here for a few years & probably walked past it. Came here for an early Saturday date night dinner with my beau. The service from The office was super prompt, friendly & helpful. Really lovely guys who were very knowledgeable about what they were serving. We ordered the house cocktail & mango margarita, smacked cucumber salad & the lamb tan tan (for him) & the Vegan tan tan for me with a ramen egg added. We both absolutely loved our dishes. The cucumber salad was refreshing & delicious. The tan tan’s depth of flavor was out of this world, I wanted to eat it all but was full. I wish I’d taken it home now. We also ordered the prawn crackers and chilli sauce, which is why we couldn’t finish the most amazing dish sadly. The server did say the tan tan was the most filling dish…oops, oh well at least we got to try a couple of small plates. We’ll be back for sure to try more. We ended our dinner with the sake special ‘Fuji Apple’ yum ☺️

Brilliant modern place serving a simple menu of ramen & sides, independent beer and natural wines. Will be back. Just no idea why closing time is advertised as 830pm? It’s 10pm?

Loved my trip here. The ramen was superb but the star for me was the pickled and fermented veg.

More giving 5 for the service. The Korean dogs are delicious but for your money left wanting more.

came here for 2 cheese corn dogs and very very delicious! However they were a bit small for the price. Friendly service though!

Had a family Sunday lunch at EP. All the food was lovely and there was something for all ages which ranged from 3 to 66. Excellent service too by Jay who was very knowledgeable and helpful

Absolutely great! Possibly one of the best ramens I've had.

Been twice now. I'm not the biggest fan of soup-noodles but I enjoyed what I had and my dining partners always loved theirs, and the portions on the ramen bowls are generous and filling. Fortunately, the small plates are amazing too! The fat on the pork belly bao was meltingly soft, and the squash ceoquettes wonderfully crispy and fresh. It's a rare thing you can pointedly not order a restaurant's speciality and not feel like you're missing out. The cocktails are great too.

Wow what an experience. We had the fried radish cake to share between 2 of us which was so so good, never had flavours like it before! Then for main we had shoyu and tan tan which both were FULL of flavours, so so good. The best beer choices too. We were really impressed with our whole experience. Staff were great and they all genuinely looked like they enjoy their job. Great experience. Great food. Thank you!! We will definitely be back!!

Our table had the Shoyu Ramen, the chicken in the ramen was very bland, the duck was ok, but the duck meatballs were really nice. Also, our waiter for the day was so attentive, friendly, and pretty funny. He genuinely made our experience better.

What an amazing place. Food awesome. Drinks awesome. Service lovely. Cannot recommend more. You won't be disappointed.

Very friendly staff, they were great. Food was very tasty nice foamy broth and interesting options for ramen not just your standard options. Interior design is spot on very contemporary although warm and welcoming. Perfect for a first date, meal or with friends and family. Honestly cant fault our experience it was a top experience for a fair price. Will be returning, a gem of a establishment and you can tell the staff have fun and really care about what they do, Bravo!!

The best staff, the best food, the best atmosphere. Thank you for such a brilliant evening. We can’t wait to come back. Pork bao the firm favourite and the most lip-smackingly porky and unctuously delicious ramen. Well done Everyday People.

By far the best ramen I've had in Nottingham (not that the competition is fierce!), a very friendly staff, and just a nice overall place. Clean, not too big not too small, comfortable. The food feels very authentic and isn't rushed but does not take ages either, and the portions are very reasonable in size (shared a starter and had a bowl of ramen and I felt full). The only negative point I could think of would be the very strange choice of only proposing the tan tan ramen with lamb and not leaving the choice of meat to the customer.

What an absolute gem of a place. Everything we ordered tasted amazing. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about the food they produce and the restaurant they run. The venue is small and simple. Only a few options and an ever changing special on the wall but what you get is food cooked to perfection that not only tastes amazing but is reasonably priced. The ramen is huge and for £16 can't be beaten. All the starters / sharing sides are just as good as the ramen.

Incredibly delicious food. Really friendly staff.

The best place for ramen in Nottingham 10/10. We went for our bday dinner and we had THE BEST TIME. Food was amazing, the atmosphere is great and GEORGIA (the waitress) WAS SO NICE TO US ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 so lovely THANK YOU

Amazing! Will definately come again!

the best of the best, every time!

An absolute gem of a restaurant in Nottingham. Great food and a great atmosphere. Jack was absolutely superb as well!

Lovely staff but the food was just quite bland, I got the pork ramen and my partner got the duck and chicken. I wouldn't go back but it was a great vibe and attentive staff.

Fantastic service. Delicious beer. Filling ramen. Busy but not overwhelming.

Despite the harsh economic climate in the UK for restaurant operators, it's great that Nottingham has the fortune to host some of the best eateries. Everyday people is bang on with its clean cut image, showcasing the skilled, friendly and energetic kitchen staff, on full view of the diners. This is certainly not a cheap meal, but for what they deliver, the value is quite exceptional. I'm no gastronomic expert, but this is a great way to experience what Raman is all about. My ignorance was kindly and expertly accommodated by the cheerful waiting staff and that really added to the experience this week. Not going to go into all the dishes, but everything my partner and I ordered was made to the highest standard and we're all memorable. I could mention those eggs... Just fantastic, but don't just go there for an egg and soldiers, or you'll be missing out!

Food is delicious with good vegan and vegetarian options. Service was really friendly and attentive without being fussy. A great experience

My new fave restaurant. Obsessed with their ramen.

Fantastic food, really rich and tasty.

The most charismatic and attentive waiting staff as well as the best ramen I’ve ever had! Big recommend

Okay everyone, as Korean who visited Japan multiple times to have RAMEN, I can guarantee this place's broth is REAL. So nice and authentic you should really try them out. But there was only downside that I had to wait for too long (i haven't been told there would be a wait though) If you dont really mind waiting it will be a pleasant experience for your tongue!

Walked in by accident (we were actually headed somewhere else) and they were super busy but found us a seat at the counter so we got to watch the theatre of the kitchen (best seat in the house) I had the duck and it was delicious. Delicate breast meat, punchy flavourful leg meat meat ball and the most amazing broth. Perfectly jammy egg too. The noodles were also perfectly cooked, just the right amount of bite. We also shared some slightly spicy prawn crackers, so good! Service was attentive without being overbearing and super friendly. We'll definitely be back when next in Nottingham

Iv wanted to visit this restaurant for some time and chose to go on mother's day , my mum has a gluten intolerance, and south east Asian food is a no go for that apparently, the waiter accommodated my mistake and my mums dietary requirements amazingly and saved mothersday for me , the food was by far the best ramen iv had in the nottingham and definitely a place I will be visiting again (regularly) great food, great drink selection and a more than accommodating team .

Awesome food, great atmosphere and brilliant service. Perfect.

Maybe my favourite restaurant in Nottingham. The vegan tan tan is incredible, nice selection of Japanese beers and a great margarita too

I really like this place, been here once before with my partner, and both times we've loved it. The food is delicious, big portions, great selection of wines, and I really enjoyed the thai tea creme brulee we had for dessert. Friendly staff, it gets busy and quite loud (we were there on a saturday night) but all the same a fun atmosphere. Vegan Dan dan noodles are really good. My only criticism are the toilets. As a non binary trans person I'm always dismayed when toilets are gendered, it feels unnecessary and alienating. As far as I can tell both toilets are the same, although you can indicate a difference by writing 'urinal' or 'stall' on the door if needed. Please can you consider changing the signs on the doors to be more inclusive? I would love to recommend this place to queers I know, but this stops me from doing so.

The fried radish small dish is amazing. One of the nicest dishes I’ve ever eaten.

Genuinely one of my fav places, the food is to die for, the service is incredibly friendly and welcoming and the restaurant rotates the dishes occasionally so you can always try new things! Ramen portions are also very generous, so a good deal for the amount and quality ❤️

Came for lunch and it was delicious! Great value for money with a huge bowl of ramen and snack for only £16. The woman in the black beanie who served me was also super lovely and helpful. Can’t wait to come back already!

Been there on Friday evening, so I guess wait times are always longer, but we waited very long for a bowl of ramen. The place is by no means quiet or cosy, it was impossible to talk to a person across the table without raising your voice, but that's just how the place is designed with large open space I suppose. The most important part of a restaurant is the food, and it did not disappoint! Very large and extremely delicious bowl of ramen, with highest quality ingredients all at reasonable price.

Yummy yummy yummy!!! Food was great, staff were super friendly. Always booked we turned up on the off chance there was a table and we were in luck! We will be returning!

Arrived to find our reservation had apparently been lost. Service was chaotic and disorganised. We had to wait over 75 minutes (11/4hrs) for our noodles. Other diners arriving 30 minutes after our group, ordered, were served, ate, paid and left while we were still waiting. Extremely noisy with an overlay of unnecessary music.

Was excited to try this place after seeing the great reviews but unfortunately was not to be. I arrived around 4pm yesterday (Sunday) and was told there was a further 40 minute wait time for food only after I had already been seated, ordered, finished my shrimp crackers and half my drink. Really disappointing because I obviously wouldn't have ordered and pay almost £8 for my crackers and cola if I had been told about the wait time either before being seated or ordering.

The food, the staff, everything was perfect. We all love it, including my toddler!

A friend suggested this place as he had seen a good review somewhere. The service and the food were excellent. The food is very much Japanese style, the menu catering for meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans. Everything was exquisitely cooked and flavoured. My only two small criticisms are that is it quite noisy, the minimalist style interior of hard surfaces reflecting the sounds, and secondly it could have been a degree or two warmer. At £16 for lunch it is very good value for money. Definitely on my go to again list.

Ramen isn't usually my first choice when I eat out, but OH WOW the ramen here is out-of-this-world. Service is great, food generally takes a little time to come out but it is absolutely worth the wait.

Read the Jay Raynor review so had to see what the fuss was about and we are glad we did. It's a small place with great buzz as pretty much every table is a chef's table. Young lad served us and he was so enthusiastic which was fantastic to see. Ramen had a very very flavoursome broth and perfect noodles. Wine list quite small and they have very interesting choice and we were more than happy with our selection. We didn't hold back and spent over £100 for two but I am sure you could get in and out of there for half the price. We are back in a couple of weeks for a family lunch.

Ramen is alright, preferred the Tonkatsu broth. However it was a very long wait and we waited at least 40 minutes for our order with the tables around us waiting even longer.

Amazing! fresh delicious starters, Incredible ramen with great portions for the prize- this was the lamb shoulder and vegetarian broth. The milk tea custard creme brûlée was amazing, so unique but so good, definitely for milk tea lovers!

Everything is good, best ramen so far in Notts. The food and service were excellent and the decoration was nice. Serve quickly but 6-8pm are busy in workdays Worth to revisit it.

First thing this morning we read Tim Hayward's glowing review of Everyday People in this morning's Saturday FT Magazine. Four hours later we were in the queue waiting for it to open. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. This is incredible food - let alone that it is so reasonably priced. Even Tim's gushing review hardly prepared us for the quality. The quality, the flavours, the balance, everything was amazing. The service was also wonderful - friendly, helpful, but not overbearing. No aspect was anything less than 5/5.

Went with my partner and it was delicious ✨ as always though!! staff are all awesome, super attentive, food turnaround is fast and I’ve never had anything off the menu I haven’t absolutely adored, portions are spot on. yea no complains from me! honestly the food will make ur eyes roll and your tummy flutter 🫶🏼 PS. I have to say, I do miss those corn dogz pls make them a permanent menu item

This is a great place for some good Asian food and catch up with friends. The restaurant is welcoming and has a great atmosphere with the open plan kitchen and an attentive team. Also, the restaurant doesn’t have loud background music, making this a great spot to catch up with friends.

Great place to go and eat with family. I had the pork belly bao which was really tasty and the duck shoyu which was a great choice. Excellent service from all the staff and I look forward to coming again soon.

Staff are very friendly and welcoming, food is authentic and delicious, and the cocktails will knock your socks off!

Fantastic! We visited on Saturday lunch time as we booked a table. It was busy, so really glad we did. Quick, efficient and friendly service. An excellent choice of drinks. We opted for a bottle of the house orange, natural wine and each a portion of the Tan Tan ramen. Wine was different but delicious. The ramen was incredible. Beautiful broth, plenty of ramen and tender lamb. Very generous portions. So much flavour. Highly recommended.

This was my 3rd visit to Everyday People and as always you delivered fantastic food, drink and service! This was the busiest I'd seen the restaurant, but that did not impact the experience at all. Kudos to your serving staff and chefs. This time I had the seasonal miso with a cherry house sake... delicious!

Tasty authentic food. Cocktails were also top notch. Service ok. Was very busy so would advise booking.

Sausage and cheese ramen. Thai tea creme brulee. Words cannot describe how perfect both these dishes were. You cannot only visit this place once.

Food is nice but sadly slightly pricey. I shall visit again and depending if the food quality is constant I might increase it to 5 stars. The staff are polite and attentive. The atmosphere is nice and relaxed. A more unique selection of non-alcoholic beverages would be deeply welcomed too.

Big fan of ramen, often having it in london restaurants. This place surprised me so much with absolutely novel to my taste buds lamb ramen and home made sake. Both are must to try!

Delicious food and a really cool space! Our waiter Harry was super friendly and responsive. We felt very welcome with our baby as well. Would definitely recommend! Get the corn dogs!

The setting is nicely informal and the food and service were great! We both ordered different dishes and everything was so nice. The waiting time was barely noticeable and the staff were very friendly. It was a fantastic spot to grab some lunch while in town. I knocked a star off because the music was so loud we struggled to have a conversation. Which was a shame.
