    This is the place to go for ramen! My second time trying since going to the original branch. Worth the wait! Packs flavour, very moreish and filling! My favourite in London! Try the chicken side also!

    The vegetarian ramen is immense. The porcini broth is thicker than any Tonkotsu you'll ever have, and the asparagus and side of avocado are perfect. Add an egg—but note the eggs are NOT vegetarian

    I got the truffle ramen and my friend got the Tonkotsu X. Both were flavorful & delicious but I don’t think the v mild truffle flavor was worth the extra £ for the former. Get the egg as an extra.

    Best place in London for Tonkotsu ramen: rich and creamy pork bone broth with an intense meaty flavour. Their truffle ramen (picture here) was the true definition of comfort food!

    Wow. Loved the truffle ramen, a very nice change from traditional ramen and full of flavour. The rest of the ramen was great too

    I’ve been to a Kanada-Ya a few years back and remember really enjoying the truffle ramen but today I had it again and it was meh. Too truffle-y not enough of the ramen taste I expected. Wouldn’t rec

    Truffle Ramen was delicious, add chashu eggs. And if you like it spicy, add the (free) spicy seaweed readily available on the table. The chili oil/chilli flakes were not spicy enough 😊

    They live up to the hype. Tonkotsu-X has a pork and chicken broth and it's so god damn delicious I want to enshrine my ramen. (Eggs sold separately)

    although I'm not a vegetarian, I did loved the veg broth so much. Super delicious ramen. And try the truffle Edamame - big surprise.

    Whilst I understand ramen is predominantly pork based, Kanada-ya’s veggie option didn’t impress me like. Come if you’re a meat eater, otherwise, I recommended shoyru instead

    Try the truffle ramen! Its scrumptious! Beware of the cup which they use to fill water sometimes is not clean and you might need to request to change!

    Excellent ramen, just as good as the original outlet. Tonkotsu is the best, tonkotsu x is pretty good too. Garlic sauce is a good add-on.

    Spicy yuzu was better than expected. The sour and spicy broth was well balanced.

    Broth a bit salty but if you don't buy every product with the lowest amount of sodium possible (as I do) then it's hecking delicious.

    Amazing food. Make sure to try the truffle starter. All the ramen noodles were super tasty. (It does feel a tad bit expensive though.)

    Truffle ramen + egg were delicious. Try the peach and citrus sake. You won't believe they're alcoholic. Unfortunately it's terribly hot and tight seating. Dress light. Be slim :(

    Genuine Japanese Ramen, very tasty and great for lunch or quick dinner. Original ramen with pork and extra hard noodles is amazing.

    Try the soupless ramen for something different - abura soba. Well worth it.

    Always a bit stressful to get in, but the ramen is my favourite in London. I like the noodles soft, the other options are just too raw.

    The best ramen in London, but I hate the enforced tip. Just charge more and pay your employees more. Japanese restaurants shouldn't have tipping culture.

    Really nice food and a friendly vibe with chill out music. The ramen dishes are lovely and pretty reasonable for London

    Both Truffle ramen and Gekikara were good. Although some may find Gekikara too spicy (not me!). Didn't care much for their Karaage, but Aburi chashu was delish.

    I believe this is the most authentic Japanese ramen you can get in London, I would definitely recommend it from Japanese point of view!

    3 words: GET THE EGG. Speaking as a regular ramen eater, Tonkotsu X broth was mind blowing. Definitely come here

    Ramen!! Although I haven't had the rice options, the ramen is so good I pretty much would trust anything in their menu!

    Get the karaage (fried chicken). Although you do have to be patient and queue up for them.

    The Karaage is pricey for a side, but the four delicious pieces of crunchy fried chicken are worth it.

    I wouldn't recommend it at all especially for those who have tried the original ramen taste in its country. Only those who had tried it would understand what I mean.

    Food is great, but wait staff don’t seem to be too keen to turn tables over. Massive queue outside and there are empty tables and tables of four that could be split into two two’s.
