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

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.

I lived in Japan for several years and had a lot of delicious ramen when I was there. The ramen at Kanada-Ya was definitely comparable. I had the pork gyoza and Tonkotsu X ramen. The latter was delicious and well-cooked from the broth to the Hanjuku Egg. I also recommend the Matcha Fondant for dessert. Despite being very busy, the service was also very good, especially from Elisha who served me. They gave me a table which suited my needs and everyone was friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be back.

Small restaurant. Lunch menu is good value for money with free green tea. Ramen was firm and reminds me of Ichiran ramen. But the pork broth is not as thick and flavourful as I would like it to be. Pork was fatty and not that tender also. Egg was flavourful but quite expensive at 2.65£.

A popular tonkotsu ramen restaurant in London. Kyushu pork bones with a high level of perfection reminiscent of Ippudo. I ordered Tonkotsu X (16.25€), but I felt the portion was a little small. If I had to say anything strongly, I would have liked a little more individuality. Still, I think it's definitely at a high level among Japanese ramen restaurants overseas. The reviews that say it took a long time to be served did not apply to me, and it came out within 5 minutes of ordering! I was a little worried because I was in a hurry, but there was no need to worry.

Tried out their new-ish menu! The red-texted Cha-Mori Ramen caught my eyes. It's not spicy by default but you can ask for chilli oil or one of their spicy paste extra. The broth was sweet, with certain hints of tanginess. The chashu pork slices and the pulled pork were great. I've always liked the firm noodles here, too. Overall an awesome ramen. Ordered Agedashi Tofu as well. I think it's okay. The crust could have been crispier. Not as much of a highlight as the ramen. This Kanada-ya is small, but very central. It's within a 5-minute walk of Leicester Square / China Town / Piccadilly Circus. Go check out those areas after (or before) your meal.

Came here after seeing a wonderful show (Your Lie in April) at The Harold Pinter Theatre and ended up loving it. I ordered the Kinolo and chashu tofu ramen with regular noodles, nori and Goma. It was delicious, the broth was flavorful but not too salty. The agedashi tofu was okay, too much ginger in my opinion. Overall, the place was clean, the staff was nice, and the food was tasty. I highly recommend checking it out.

Went for ramen on a weekend. Service and seating was ok. Paid £17 for a spicy ramen (normal portion, not XXL) and an extra egg. Ramen came up with only one egg (meaning that original ramen comes without it). Pork was just cold and not marinated as it should be. Ramen was OK, quite nice, but it definitely shouldn't be £17.

Environment: OK Service: There is only one waiter and it feels quite busy. Dishes: Worst ramen I've had so far in London, the portions were tiny and the soup wasn't tonkotsu at all. I ordered spicy ramen but got the hot sauce separately. The key is that it doesn’t look like hot sauce at all, which is very confusing... I ordered black garlic oil, but it really wasn’t black garlic oil. It was obviously sesame paste. It was so unpalatable and disgusting that it ruined the bowl of noodles when I poured it into the ramen. Ordered a confusing tasteless tofu, a waste of money. The only thing you can eat is mushroom tempura. The main reason is that the price is too expensive and the price-performance ratio is too low. It’s really hard for two people to eat 60 pounds of ramen for me. Where do these good reviews come from? I can only think that this is just a shop that deceives white people who have never tasted authentic ramen.

The driver was friendly and made reasonable time (although delivery was 15 mins or so after original estimate, London traffic I suppose). Unfortunately the broth for the ramen was completely cold. Not even lukewarm, completely cold. I would have had no problem heating it up in the microwave, but I'm staying in a hotel and don't have that facility available to me.

The ramen is definitely tasty — probably one of the best in London. But there are some issues with the restaurant itself that cause a bitter aftertaste. For example, you have to pay extra to have a single egg in your ramen. Another issue is that it doesn’t have the right amount of noodles. We had to order extra because the proportion between broth and noodle wasn’t right. It’s a shame such great ramen just milk cash from costumers like this.

Didn't leave quite satisfied. Ramen was ok, nothing memorable, I've had better in London. One big minus is the attitude of the servers. Another minus is none of the usual ramen condiments on the table, egg sold separately, portion smaller than most. Chashu pork was excellent, the rest was just average unfortunately.

I've visited here several times. I always ask to make the broth piping hot but it never came hot, it's like room temperature. I put 2 stars because the service was awful last time. The drink didn't come over 20 mins, the topping was missing but the manager said "Oh, you have sesame around the chashu pork" she pointed one white dot around chashu which wasn't sesame obviously besides no takana, no ginger. At the end, the same manager said "The electricity is gone so can't use the card machine, pls pay by QR code which wouldn't cost anything" but actually we were charged handling fee. I don't enjoy the food, no good service, then no reason to go back anymore.

I came here because I was feeling hungry during the intermission of a performance of The Phantom of the Opera. Ramen shops overseas that are headquartered in Japan tend to have disappointing tastes, but this one tastes almost the same as the main shop. Unlike in Japan, the water is hard and it must be difficult to get the same taste. Since it's a franchise store, they may have to order the soup by air, but it was a satisfying ramen shop.

I heard that the tonkotsu ramen here is great but I do not think the ramen here met my expectation. The ramen itself is just okay but it was not hot enough when it was served. The pork gyoza is a dish that I do not recommend. The texture was roughly the same as gyoza I made from frozen food.

Visited with friends, was all ok until we saw a mouse run across the floor into the kitchen. We reported this to the manager and were shocked when he attempted to tell us that it’s ok to have mice in the kitchen so long as you’re trying to solve the issue. He also protested that there are vermin in all resteraunts in London. To clarify you aren’t supposed to have vermin in kitchens. The manager was extremely unprofessional. We were only offered a 50% discount after we insisted we weren’t paying full price for the food. We received no apology from any of the staff and heard them joking about there being mice. We will be reporting this to the food standards agency.
