The ramen is good, I can’t remember the specific dish I had but it was nice and spicy! I would recommend if you are out on a busy Christmas shop! You can collect up points too for a free dish. drinks are a little expensive.

I think you need to check the freshness of the food especially the ice cream... My child came home from a kids' meal and started vomiting until now at 1.30am when he woke up from his sleep vomiting yellow bile, similar to food poisoning…

I nipped in today for a quick meal before a train. I had the Shoryu Ganso Tonkotsu and the Nansi Drops cocktail, absolutely delicious and the waitress and manager were excellent, very prompt and on the ball with allergens. My dish itself came quickly and was incredibly flavoursome and good value for money. I just wish I had more time to try starters and more cocktails but it’s definitely somewhere which I’ll be coming back with friends.

The specialty is ramen, very delicious although in the end the spiciness tires you out and takes away the flavor of the rest. Very good recommendation and help from the Italian waiter. Very nice The starter was delicious crispy chicken with a super good sauce that he also recommended to us. The menu included a very delicious, slightly spicy drink. Good price We had looked for it but what decided us was that it was practically full of Japanese people so it has to be good.

It was okay… Central location, good atmosphere and service but the food lacked depth of flavour. We ordered two ramen dishes. The noodles had a good texture and were well cooked but could have been more flavourful. The same can be said for the broth; it was good but not amazing. The Karaka Tan Tan Tonkotsu needed some more salt to help enhance some of the good flavours in the dish, and the broth should have been cooked for longer to allow the flavours to develop. The Piri Piri Tonkotsu lacked depth, it had an overpowering flavour of chili peppers so some of the bone broth flavour was lost. There are certainly better ramen bowls in Manchester with more affordable prices.

Today I went to Shoryu Ramen to have dinner with my boyfriend. We arrived around 9:00 pm and ordered 1 ramen, 1 bun, and 1 takoyaki. The total price was 34.82 pounds. However, after around 25 minutes passed, my order was still not served, and no one came to ask. On top of that, I saw the 1 table behind us; they came later and got their food before us, so I asked some waitress, and they told me that they have some missed communication. We have decided to not wait and ask for a refund. And I need to wait for 20 minutes for them to process the refund for us, and they also told us that we need to wait for 72 hours to get the money back. So today we wait around 40-45 minutes for nothing. Very bad experience for today.

This was an okay/mid experience. We waited at the entrance as per the sign requested, but no one came. After 5 minutes,  we just walked in and were noticed by staff. We ended up sitting outside looking into Piccadilly Gardens, as inside the restaurant was very crowded. We ordered boa buns to begin, which were very forgettable and didn't have much in them. For mains, we had katsu curry ramen, which was nice, but given the total price, this did not hit the expectations. Overall, it was okay, but I probably won't be visiting again.

I visited this branch on Friday 16th August 2024 at 2:30pm. The restaurant had a lot of customers inside. I had to wait quite some time to be seated, as the 2 servers just looked at me and moved elsewhere. I was finally seated outside. I once again had to wait some time for my order to be taken. I had the Soba iced tea which was lovely, even though I had to ask for it twice. I also had the Ganso Curry, which looked nice, but was pretty bland, with very overcooked meat. This was supposed to be their signature curry dish, so it was a real disappointment. The total including 10% Service charge was £19.85.

Came here earlier this month on a busy Friday evening. We were luckily able to get a table without a reservation. Staff were very welcoming and friendly, and went over the menu with us. I decided to have the chicken katsu curry ramen, and my partner had the pork ramen. Our food arrived pretty quickly, and we were surprised by how big a bowl full of food we got for the price! The taste was incredible, so jam packed with flavour! We also decided to get mochi ice cream. I opted for sesame mochi, and matcha mochi. My partner opted for chocolate mochi. We both enjoyed these, but think the sesame one was the nicest. Slightly pricey for what you get, but we're glad we tried it and didn't opt for more as we were very full. Very pleased we came here. We both enjoyed it very much, and will happily return when we next visit Manchester.

Better than „Kushi Tei of Tokyo“ (Düsseldorf, Germany)! Shoryu Ramen in Manchester is an absolute gem! From the moment you step in, the inviting atmosphere and chic decor make you feel right at home. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring a seamless dining experience. The ramen here is out of this world. The rich, flavorful broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and top-notch toppings come together to create a bowl of pure bliss. I particularly loved the special edition Takana Tonkotsu – the depth of flavor was simply unmatched, and the char siu pork was tender and delicious. Not only is the food exceptional, but the overall dining experience is also top-notch. The menu offers a fantastic variety, catering to all tastes, and the attention to detail in every dish is evident. Whether you're a ramen aficionado or new to this culinary delight, Shoryu Ramen is a must-visit. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy authentic, high-quality ramen in Manchester. Five stars without a doubt!

I am lactose intolerant and it's the first time ever that the waiter brings the allergen menu in order to ensure I won't have any allergic reaction. I love the way they treat their customers and it's a very warm atmosphere. I tried the karaage curry and the takoyaki it reminded me of one of the Osaka's donburi avenue I had but not as hot 🤣. I definitely recommend, the Asahi cider 🙏.

He then rushed off to seat another party a further 2 parties sat down and were served straight away. Could understand if the restaurant was busy. Seemed shocked when we asked to just pay for the water and leave. Warning sign should have been two other tables complaining about the wait for food. Shame as I’d heard good things

Had lunch with a friend here the other day. We met at Picadilly Gardens and didn't want to walk anywhere so we decided to go to SR. Its located on the NE edge of Picadilly Gardens behind the bus depot. I know it doesn't sound great but it's a smart enough looking place. We sat outside as it was a nice day...they have maybe 8 tables on a small terrace area. My friend ordered a bowl of ramen and a pork belly bao bun and said he really enjoyed the noodle soup. I didn't get ramen...instead I ordered a few of their small dishes - chicken teriyaki, chicken kara-age (Japanese fried chicken), pork belly bao, chicken gyoza and a cucumber salad. I also got a small bottle of still water and a coke zero. The thing that struck me first was that they charged nearly £4 for the coke...which was a small bottle!!! Anyway...to the food...the both the yakitori and kara-age were very good. The fried chicken had a lovely crispy batter and the yakitori was grilled to.perfection with a tasty sauce on top (although there could have been a bit more!). Unfortunately the pork belly bao was really quite poor. The pork itself was soft but it lacked any real flavour...and they left on the top layer of skin on the belly which is not pleasant to eat when you braise the meat....its all fat and chewy collagen! The bao itself was soft but it wasn't a great dish. The chicken gyoza was equally poor. They were served on a hot cast iron skillet but they were completely stuck to the pan which meant that they were almost impossible to remove! In the end I managed to do it by scraping a knife along the undersides of the gyoza...but all of them tore apart and I burnt my hand on the skillet handle more than once... What made it worse was that the gyozas themselves were completely bland in taste! I ended up spending over £50 on my food which I think is too high for what I ate. However I do think the ramen is what they do best...so if you visit...order that!

Japanese pork bone ramen. Shoryu ramen that you probably won't eat in Japan! But in England you can eat it. . That being said, it's delicious. However, the lukewarm soup, which is aimed at foreigners, may be a bit of a nuisance at times. I want to fufu and eat it, but I can't. When it's crowded, the service can be extremely slow and poor, so if you arrive early, you won't have any problems. The manager and assistant manager of this store are extremely kind and provide excellent customer service. You can add a service fee tip at checkout.

The food was really good, the ramen broth is one of the better ones I’ve had outside of Japan. The flavour balance in particular, was impressive considering it’s a chain restaurant. Also had a cocktail, which was decent. The service was poor overall. Other people who arrived after us were served before and when we pointed out that it had been half and hour, the waiter went away to check and then came back with the food 5 minutes later to point out it was 25 minutes, in a very “let’s set the record straight” tone, which was totally unnecessary. We were the second customers of the day. Then they chucked on an assumptive 10% service charge which was unwarranted, specially in light of the bad service. Charged 3.5 quid for some wafer thin slices of extra pork, felt like a rip off. Mochi ice cream balls at the end are store bought. Gave us a loyalty card, which I won’t use for sure. Fix up, guys!

Hi, I was hoping for at least normal restaurant quality ramen(Shoryu ganso tonkotsu). How wrong I could be... to be honest I'm doing better ramen and I'm nowhere near Japanese cooking skills. Broth complete lack of depth, I can guess you used only one type of meat, bones.. Pork? Am I right? Noodles not a great spaghetti type of very starchy noodles. The best part of your ramen was the egg, not overcooked. Dumplings... again lack of flavour, lack of salt, and only strong burnt taste dominating. Honestly I don't know how you got so many good reviews. It's your friends? Or over 2k ppl doesn't have a taste buds. Food presentation was good but nothing else what would make me to go back to your establishment. Or maybe ramen master chief had bad day and I was out of luck. Small hint... maybe a dash of MSG would help 😀

Very overpriced, rushed service. Gives the energy of a fast food place dressed up as a casual dining setting. It seems the aim is to cram as many people inside as possible and have them out as soon as possible. I was eating my sides for around 2 minutes only to have my mains shoved onto an already crowed table, I would expect for the price paid for my food to have a dining experience not a fast food experience, having mains and sides all within the window of 20 mins without considering the fact that people eat at different paces is ridiculous. The girl who served me seemed very robotic and insincere, the menu explanation seemed like it was read from a script in virbatim. The man who took my payment seemed to talk at me for longer than my whole dining experience lasted. This place seems as though it’s trying to do two things at once: hospitable service and fast food, it’s really strange. The food was satisfactory as for the drinks I ordered a lychee based cocktail which I saw come straight out of a pouch! For the price I paid premixed drinks is shameful. With alternatives for ramen all around Manchester I definitely won’t be returning to Shoryu👎🏻

We usually go to corn exchange for food but wanted to try something new today. The food was very disappointing for me and my boy. My ramen was pretty much spaghetti style pasta with a bit of broth and one broccoli Stick,2 slices of seaweed +3 slices of tofu and my boy had 3/4 slices of meat and egg… we won’t be coming back. It was more pasta in that ramen than anything else..photos were taken before we started eating.

Waiting time was less than 5 minutes even though I came at lunch rush hour. Staff greeted us amusingly with drums, we got seated and the staff introduced us to the menu. The Japanese Chicken was delicious and warm, and the ramen was warm, soup tasted good with spring onions, perfect egg, pork and seaweed. Noodles were cooked nicely, not too soft and not too hard.

We only came for a quick light bite so haven't trieds their signature ramen, but tried the buns, chicken yakitori, takoyaki and genki don. The food was ok but definitely not something that will blow your mind. There are certainly better places in town if you want some Japanese food, and pretty much priced the same. The staff were too busy to ever come and take the order or check up on us so we were left to order online. Sadly, won't be returning as the food, service and atmosphere are much better in other places in town.

First time tried recently. Food was quite bland and over priced.

I don't know what kind of people have rated this restaurant. After trying many Ramens, in many places around the world, I would say that what they offer in this place is an offense to Japan and its food

Ramen was tasty and came quickly. The experience was good, overall felt more of a quick in and out fast food experience than a sit down meal, ordering off an app not much interaction with servers etc. Would go back as it was delicious but maybe not for a special occasion/date night.

We visited last night and had a fab time. From entering the doorman was super friendly and helpful. It’s not a cheap place but the food was outstanding! We ordered the sushi platter and some other dishes and hands down it was the best sushi we’ve had! I’d go back in a heartbeat! It was a very busy Saturday night but the staff were super friendly and we didn’t have to wait too long for anything. We had a great time!

Food is not good. Sushi rice is cold (proper sushi should have warm rice), ramen was tasteless and wasn’t much soup, tempura batter was not authentic. Atmosphere is nice and staff are fine

I didn’t eat in but the establishment looked very clean, nice and tidy! The girl that served me was so so so sweet, I asked her for her suggestion / favourite meal & if she could make it exactly how she would eat it (as a fellow hospo worker, I often hate these questions so I was prepared for any reaction) and she made it with a smile!! I’m sorry I didn’t get your name but you’re a credit to the team! & Thanks for the katsu-teriyaki salmon bowl lol xx
