Kanada-Ya - Panton Street in City of London, Westminster

Originalmente reservamos por error otro Kaneda - Ya, pero fue amablemente resuelto por el personal. La comida (mezcla de diferentes ramen y gyozas) era genial y amigable con el servicio. Seguramente aconsejaría esta bonita dirección pero aconsejo reservar con antelación o estar listo para esperar un poco : - )

Tasty Ramen, Friendly staff, can’t agree the review posted few hours ago, there is not only yourself eating in the restaurant, be wisely.

If a photo speaks thousand words, then these two should speak 2,000 words? The staff was not really attentive, rather enjoying singing along some songs by Queen (really? At a Japanese ramen store?) than caring about the customers' needs. The food was once good by London standard but those were the days. As shown in the pictures, the ramen was not cooked properly, and the gyoza looked like chaos. I've tried other Kanada-Ya outlets in White City and other parts of London and thought the one at Panton Street remained the best. Now this may no longer hold. I'm not sure if it is the result of a change of management and kitchen crew, but I'm pretty sure I'll spend my money elsewhere next time.

Very good ramen if not the best I have ever eaten.. in central London there are three, I have eaten in all of them, there are small differences between them. Even if for me this is the second, very good... 🤤

Another great meal and great service!

Delicious ramen and very quick service. Definitely recommend it if you’re in the area

Great staff, even greater ramen. Highly recommend

Incredible food. Best gyoza I've ever tasted. Very friendly service. Will definitely be back, thanks guys

Very average food for high end prices. I ordered the Tonkatsu X and asked to add toppings on my Ramen but both mustard and sesame were missing. The service was very cold. Nobody asked if our food was alright and I can barely hear the waiter when they were taking our order. The table and chairs are way too tiny and cramped. Would not go back.

Nice ramen, good service and quick response

Really nice ramen, and I really enjoyed the service and atmosphere. Would recommend for date night and casual group outings

Taste good but expensive. Need to add money to get the egg which should be normal in the ramen bowl.

Thank you, it was really very good!

love the food and a neat location

I liked: the cooking of the pasta, al dente and the efficient and distant service I didn't like: - sitting in a small corner on a tiny stool and a small square table, - the absence of eggs in my Tonkotsu ramen (additional charge) and above all the ridiculous size of the dish, I would need 3 to eat enough, and finally the excessive price for this size of dish. Didn't try anything other than one ramen so I left to finish eating elsewhere.

Vine hace poco. Tuve un Ramen tradicional - La comida era agradable pero un poco decepcionante, ya que el Ramen no sabía mucho. El servicio sin embargo, fue increíble! Tuvimos un servidor encantador que era muy amable y amable

Worst branch I’ve ever been to, no service at all, also food not fresh, restaurant quite small too

There's not much space inside, but the ramen is tasty. If someone chooses spicy positions, it can be a moving experience.

This location is my favourite!!!! It’s absolutely lovely and the food always hits the spot!!! Closest thing to the real Japanese tonkatsu

Best Ramen in London! Absolutely love coming here for lunch or post work dinner, the ramen is 10/10 every single time.

Overpriced！Pork taste good but floor is greasy will not come back.

The best truffle ramen I ever had. Service was really nice and a portion was adequate to the price. I really recommend that place!

Buen lugar para comer algo rápido, especialmente para los amantes del ramen. El picante Yuzu era genial y también el Karaage. Mi compañera tomó el pollo katsu y ella dijo que era encantador. El servicio era amable y rápido, el tipo con el pelo rojo era especialmente atento. En general, una experiencia agradable.

Very nice staff, very tasty Ramen. Thank you !

Gekikara ramen -was delicious! I recommend this restaurant. Thank you!

The ramen was delicious—the broth was super flavorful, and the noodles had just the right amount of firmness. Service was great, really friendly and attentive. The only downside was that the table for two felt a bit too cozy (pretty small), so keep that in mind. Also, the service charge isn’t included, so you’ll need to add a tip (and they definitely deserve it!). Personally, I’m not a fan of this, love the “add the tip for America, London doesn’t need it. But overall, the food and service made it well worth it!

Had to share my negative experience with the service here. My partner and I arrived at a moderately busy time and asked if there were any tables available as we were walk-ins, we were told to wait 10 minutes for a table which was fine by us. We return 10 minutes later to be turned away with a flat no. As walk-ins we 100% would've understood that there were no available tables and could have gone elsewhere no problem, they simply needed to tell us up front. Asking us to wait just to refuse us was simply unacceptable. Cannot give more stars for wasting our time. Cannot comment on the food.

Food 10/10 Service is a bit lacking 🥺 a littke smile or a thank you for coming?

Lovely food, great service - ramen highly recommended

The ramen is really delicious. A bit expensive but it is worth it. The staff was very friendly too.

Vinimos aquí para almorzar antes de ir al teatro. La comida estaba bien y yo estaba encantado de poder hacerlo fue abajo con alcohol libre Asahi! La señora youn g que nos sirvió estaba atento. Comida a un precio razonable.

Best ramen I've ever had! The flavors were incredible, and the onigiri was top-notch. Absolutely loved everything about this place.

Lovely staff and good, hearty food. Little pricey.

First off the service was excellent the servers were very helpful, polite and friendly. The food was filling and tasted pretty good, for the two of us we paid like sixty pounds for two main courses and two drinks so I felt that it was a little overpriced but probably this is just London prices now. This was my first time trying a ramen dish I ordered the egg (which cost almost three pounds more) with the dish but I felt that it didn't really add much flavour to the dish, probably better off adding more protein either pork or chicken next time. I had a pint of their Japanese larger, I found it quite flat but tasted decent enough. The only downside was the state of the toilets as they weren't that clean , might have just been because it was a busy Saturday night at the time that we visited as to why. Overall a decent place to eat.

The incredibly delicious ramen. Fresh, beautifully served. Nice waiter. Fast service. Simply great. Highly recommended.

Best Ramen I have had in London. And the kara age was delicious as well as the fried gyoza. Never disappointed, and keep going back whenever in London.

I had the most authentic Tonkotsu ramen I’ve ever found in London

The food is always 10/10, best ramen and best katsu curry in london.

The best ramen we've ever eaten! Don't forget to add an egg (extra charge but worth it!)

The only downside is that I find they are not very well stocked, not in quantity, but very good!

We had lunch here before a show at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket. Tonkatsu ramen and pumpkin katsu curry were both freshly prepared and delicious, healthy-tasting and good value at £35 for 2 including service. The place is very small, with tiny tables and stools, but not uncomfortable. The music was a bit thumpy for us but in our 60s we were easily twice the age of the rest of the clientele! Service was quick and friendly. We’d definitely visit again.

Probably one of the best ramens in London. Portion sizes are slightly smaller than a typical Ramen place. Definitely recommend if you are looking for legit ramen in London

One star for food I’ve been to many Japanese restaurants in London but this is the one with the dirtiest toilets which made me concerned about the hygiene in kitchen too. Obvious understaffed - you have to wait for ages to be served. Inappropriate structure of tables - 2 round tables with ugly decoration placed in the middle but only serve 4 people and more people have to be placed in the narrow side tables

Average at best. All the flavour of course comes from the broth, so I’ve always found it hard to get behind the idea of a £16.95 bowl of noodles before adding extras.

Been here for lunch a few times as a take-away, Fantastic vegetarian Raman, highly recommend! Take-away Raman spoons would be great, I was only given chopsticks for Raman. The new salmon salad has a very oily dressing, I had to drain it when I got back to the office and filled almost half a cup of oil. Overall great Japanese food ! Recommend.

ramen texture is not authentic. chicken karaage doesn’t taste fresh.

Apareció en pre-show para su opción de almuerzo. Precio justo, comida decente y un servicio agradable. Volvería a visitar y probar otros elementos del menú

Wonderful food and kind staff. Toilets a bit hit and miss, but overall a very nice place!

Cute vibe, delicious food, quick service. Would recommend

My first ramen in London!! I ordered Tokonsu X (without the nitamago) in pork and chicken bone broth, 5 slices of chashu pork belly, wood ear fungus and spring onion as the basic. I chose firm noodle and nori (seaweed) as complementary toppings. The bowl was hot to keep the soup warm which was very thoughtful. Although the soup was savoury with a good balance of both chicken and pork flavours, the portion was rather small for the value.The chicken karaage was so tender that it melted in my mouth.

Very good Tonkutsu ramen with a fairly thick and slightly salty broth. Good and fine noodles, the meat is in quantity and you can configure your ramen a little with toppings and extras. On the negative: I didn't particularly like the onigiri and the prices can be a little high. I still highly recommend it because the ramen alone is worth it.

I don’t understand why this restaurant is so overrated. The food wasn’t worth the price and didn’t taste good. The staff were unfriendly, and apart from the Japanese-style interior, there wasn’t much to like.

Had our dinner here at new year eve. Waiting time is about 15 minutes which is okay. We ordered truffle ramen & cha siu ramen, both are tasty! It would be better if the truffle taste can be stronger. The karaage chicken is yummy too!

I read the reviews and went out to eat with my friends, full of excitement. I don't know where the admiration comes from. £145 and none of us ate our ramen. The only thing is their beer is ok.

The food was very I can highly recommend this place !

Incredibly disappointing how much they raised the prices. A place that used to be an oasis of good food, with a great quality and prices has turned into a bad one in all of the above. And even when you pay 16£ for a ramen, it’s a really small portion.

Soup, noodles, toppings, everything feels expensive even at 5 pounds. Appearance and taste are two different things.

Really great ramen, nice service and good price

The atmosphere was extremely authentic to a Japanese ramen shop and the food was absolutely delicious!! 10/10 would recommend!!

Love it, always consistent, the vegetarian ramen is my favourite, together with truffle edamame, chicken karaage and hanjuku egg

Great fresh food in an intimate venue. One recommendation I would make, please add some more vegetarian dishes! Thank you!

Great place for ramen if you want an authentic Ramen! YUMMMMMMEHHH!

Small space with a lot of good food! Stumble upon this ramen today, and we have no ravp, but the wait wasn't too bad. Ita about 15 min. The food came out so fast and pretty accurate with what we ordered. I'm definitely not disappointed.

Very nice waiter, I had to queue a little but the waiter guy was very nice to me and helpful! He even told me (us) to wait inside because it was raining. The tonkotsu ramen was amazing WITH the eggs! Love it! Definitely would come back. I recommend.

Extremely poor service by Melissa. It was raining heavily and our family with two young kids was asked to wait outside the restaurant. We were the only customers at the point in time and there was not sympathy by Melissa. Terrible experience. With such poor service, the appetite for the food was gone. Very disappointed. Would have given the worst rating here and I wouldn’t give a star at all. In response to your reply - I saw a group of customers standing at the same area where we were turned away rudely. They were not turned away and were allowed to congregate there for a while sheltering themselves from the rain. Please be responsible and investigate on this matter instead of finding excuses to defend yourselves. Again, if Melissa’s service had been more sympathetic and helpful, I would not have shared my experience on this. The restaurant service ought to be improved quickly. Hence, please reflect upon so that patrons would return. Do not need to be defensive in here. Thank you.

The service was great and super friendly however, we were a party of 5 and only one of us actually liked the food. The starters were really tasty but the ramen was not unfortunately.

I lived in Japan for several years and had a lot of delicious ramen when I was there. The ramen at Kanada-Ya is definitely comparable. I first visited on the recommendation of a Japanese friend and I am now a regular customer. My personal favourites out of the ramen are the Tonkotsu X and the Gekikara. Both have delicious broth and taste very authentic. The Gekikara is very spicy and so I would recommend having the Spicy Yuzu or Tonkotsu X if you do not like your ramen very hot. I also recommend having the Hanjuku egg as an extra. The small plates are very good, especially the Karaage and Pork Gyoza and I can never resist having a dessert and especially recommend the Mille Crêpe and Melting Matcha Fondant. Despite being very busy each time I have visited, the service is also very good with the staff being attentive and helpful without being intrusive. I was particularly impressed that the first time I visited, they found me a table which accomodated my needs. Personally, I really like the atmosphere, as it is very much like a ramen restaurant in Japan with no frills and minimal furnishing. However, it is something to bear in mind if you prefer something more sophisticated and/or for a leisurely meal. I have tried other ramen restaurants in London and there are plenty of good choices, but Kanada-Ya remains my favourite in terms of taste and service.

Super! The best ramen i've ever eaten 😍

Amazing ramen with a choice of toppings. The restaurant has the atmosphere of a Japanese ramen shop

There were many bookings but the guy on front studied the reservations and managed to squeeze us in very kindly. We appreciated the effort and the food as always was delicious. The broth is 10/10 and noodles are delightful. I also had the yuzu lemonade which was delicious.

Excelente relación precio-calidad en un entorno limpio y moderno con personal educado y amable. Un excelente hallazgo

The noodles were hard and I can't recommend it as ramen at all.

Lovely food Excellent service Chefs are lovely people Always friendly & great atmosphere

delicious. had the gekikara. spicy but very good.

Amazing staffs and food. Particularly the ramen was one of the best ones I’ve ever had

One of the Best Ramen I Ever had... Especially the selfmade brew

Decent food, horrible service and atmosphere. We’re sent to downstairs sits where you barely have space. Our table was literally between the kitchen and the bathroom. We asked twice for our back table that was free but no one did anything. Every ramen is 18£ on average which is expensive taking into account the quality of the place.

We ordered 6 different ramen. Everyone was delicious. We recommend!

Very fast and friendly service, nice atmosphere and delicious ramen!

The best ramen! Absolutely recommended. Excellent service and friendly staff. 4 minute walk from Picadilly

One of the best ramens me and my partner have ever had and we lived in Asia for 6 years!

Over all this place was really good. Ramen broth was really delicious. The chashu was also well seasoned however it looked like 3 thin peaces or roast pork, and the chicken gyoza had some weird spice init that made it unbeatable. maybe I expected slightly too much after living in Japan and experiencing Chef Morimoto’s food. And the last this is the price, for 2 (kind of small looking ramen), gyoza, edamame and 2 drinks we payed £77…. Way too much

Amazing food, great service and cute decor. My new favourite.

The best ramen!! Very good service and calm atmosphere

Nothing is made in house, and you can taste it. It is extremely expensive for the quality, don’t get lured by the visuals. (Service is not included) The toilets are not clean. Sad.

Decepcionado con la calidad de los platos Ramen. . . He pasado mucho tiempo en Japón y esto no fue tan bueno. . . No lo suficientemente caliente; no es una base de sopa de buen sabor, obviamente los fideos paketed no son realmente ramen. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

amazing ramen and matcha crepe as usual

Waiting time quite slow. Our soup was not hot.

Very nice place, super great food, nice service

The marinated egg an extrasensory experience

Fantastic establishment. Delicious food. Would definitely come again.

Comimos allí con 5 personas, comimos la Opción Vegetariana y el Tonkotsu Ramen. Todos eran muy deliciosos. Mi favorito era el caldo de hongos. El tamaño de la porción es ligeramente más pequeño de lo habitual, pero todos nos fuimos saciados y felices.

Fantastic! Authentic! Friendly!

Love the food here. Service is great as always

Delicious ramen, best in Piccadilly for sure

The absolute best ramen in London

The tamago is the best thing I have tasted in this resto! The whole ramen is a great experience of taste

The food here is exceptional, really delicious

Being a noodle nerd, I've been here a few times over the years. It's one of the best places to go for a very decent example of Japanese ramen in London. This time around I do find the noodles have changed, being less bouncy. The extra firm noodles do not really feel that firm. Not sure what's happening there but everything in the bowl is otherwise brilliant.

One of the best ramen in town until now
