Originally intended to go to a better-known ramen restaurant up the road but they were full so we tried this. So glad we did. The pepper beer ramen was fantastic. Broth full of flavour. Seafood ramen also excellent. Nice gyoza. Staff friendly and efficient. Only taking a point off because they add a service charge which has no place in the UK.

This is a great wee ramen spot not far from city centre. My fav so far is the vegan tantan (with an egg cos I'm not vegan). The staff are fantastic. Always welcoming, helpful and friendly. The new ice creams are a delicious sweet treat to round things off. We particularly loved the matcha flavour.

Feeling the need for ramen, I was delighted I came across this fun & quirky little place. Clean & busy, the staff were friendly & efficient. Huge bowl of delicious spicy vegetarian noodles, a side of crispy tofu, & 2 delicious gin cocktails later, I was ready to tackle the long journey home. Also enjoyed reading through the Post-Its of previous diners. 🥰

Dropped in whilst wandering around looking for some food inspiration. Unassuming from the outside, it is bright and clean on the inside. The staff were attentive and helpful and my Salt & Pepper Beef Ramen was as good as any I have ever had. It was sensational. The little Japanese Ice Cream Desserts were interesting and different but well presented and very tasty too. A real find - and it would have been easy to wander past. If you are in the area, do yourself a favour and pop in. You will not be disappointed.

Very unassuming place, and wouldn’t have thought to visit if I hadn’t been recommended to visit. Very small place with limited tables, smells delicious inside - tried to get in previously one Saturday lunchtime, but there was a 30-40 minute wait for a table. The food was all excellent, probably one of the best ramens I’ve had. We had a tonkotsu and a seafood ramen, with togarashi karaage to share - all served very quickly and piping hot. Everything was so full of flavour and moreish but filling. Very reasonably priced. The reason this is a 4 star review (and it really pains me to do so!) is down to the service. The two waiters were overall quite disinterested and impersonal, and slightly aloof which is a real shame. Overall would definitely be back and strongly recommend to others!

I'm vegetarian, and the restaurant fed me chicken. Visually, it looked like the tofu I had ordered, but after a few bites, I asked the waiter, and he confirmed it was meat. I said I was vegetarian (I had done this when ordering, too). The waiter said they were understaffed, sorry about the mix up, and left. After a few minutes of feeling unwell and upset, we decided to leave. They let us skip the bill, but it was an upsetting experience.

Tried Ikigai today and desperate to go back already! We tried the tantanmen ramen, it was so warming and tasty with the freshest noodles. The loaded fries were great, chicken wings crispy and full of flavour and the croquettes weren’t just boring croquettes but really yummy and topped with mayo. Service was rapid given the place was full! Waiters were fantastic. Can’t wait to come back!

We visited here after a busy day at the National museum of Scotland. We were greeted by the manager, a very friendly and chirpy chap from America made us feel very welcome. He even gave us a lesson in how to use chop sticks and we all really appreciated this. The food was amazing for us. I had the Tantanmen Char Sui ramen and my partner and son had the chicken Ramen. Both types were super delicious, full of flavour in both the broth, veg and meat. And they were filling. We also tried the loaded fries, the salt n seaweed and the Sriracha chip. Both very tasty. Good atmosphere. Nice and relaxed. We turned up without booking and were lucky as the place soon filled up not long after our arrival. Can't wait to go back.

Italiani ad Edimburgo, andateci, il ramen è buonissimo e la gestione è molto cortese. Abbiamo preso 2 ramen e 1 porzione di gyoza. Abbiamo speso 33 sterline

Restaurant de ramen présent en plusieurs endroits en ville d'Edimbourg. J'ai commandé du kimchi, ainsi qu'un ramen au poulet bien épicé. Un peu dommage que la composition des ramen ne soit pas détaillée sur la carte, mais rien de bien grave. Après dégustation : Kimchi top... Poulet bien tendre... La portion de poulet aurait pu être un poil plus grande... Nouilles savoureuses... Portion de nouilles généreuse... Bouillon trop épicé selon mes préférences, pas d'équilibre de saveurs en bouche... Un ramen de qualité, juste dommage pour le bouillon, mais il s'agit là de mon choix que j'assume complètement vu que la carte signalait clairement l'assaisonnement très fort. Je repasserai volontiers et commanderai leur nouveau ramen avec le bouillon curry-coco qui avait l'air bien gourmand. Des prix quand même un peu plus doux qu'en Suisse, du coup on ne regrette pas les 10% demandés pour le service. Cela dit en passant, un service efficace en période d'affluence, idem pour le plaçage à la table avec une file d'attente de 15 personnes j'a attendu 5 environ , merci.

I really enjoyed this meal. Food was excellent and so was the service. Great atmosphere inside. Quirky little basement restaurant, glad we saw it as we passed.

The wife and I are on vacation visiting from California. She needed her Korean heritage fix. It scratched the itch. Classic flavors of kbbq that we all know and love. Reasonable prices too. Great atmosphere. Clean. Delicious. Friendly people.
