“ Wooooooahhhhhh blew my mind!!! Went there because my friend recommended and told me the story behind the owner! The soup bases of both ramen were so good, clear, not heavy but full of umami! Everything is perfect in the bowl, I LOVE it so much! Planning to go back to try everything on the menu! Thank you for bringing quality ramen to us in Melbourne! ”
“ Absolutely insane how good the ramen here is! I had the duck ramen and the flavours were so delicate. You could taste the smokiness from the duck and it was balanced so nicely with the brightness from the yuzu. On top of that, the duck itself was SO good, the egg beautifully jammy, and the burdock root made for a great textural element. The mocktails were also delicious! Service was incredibly efficient and thoughtful. Highly recommended and I can't wait to come back! Will get extra soup this time because that broth was to die for. ”
“ Cute & quaint little ramen bar at the heart of Melbourne. They had delicious broth and tasty aged wave ramen noodles! We had the Spicy Pork Shoyu, has a deep flavourful broth with a kick, and the Yuzu Duck, that tasted clean and refreshing! The gobo chips in the ramen is crispy and yummy as well. Will definitely come back here for more bowls of hearty ramen ”
“ One of the best places for Ramen in Melbourne! Their ramens with the signature broth and the two week aged noodles are by far the best. Spicy one isn’t bad but isn’t worth the extra price. Stick to the signature broth ones. Starters are great too! Highly recommend The space is a bit small, definitely wish it was a bit better but I guess that adds to the vibe. ”
“ Usually kaisendon is my go to meal, but I can make that at home easy. So I had to try the asari shoyu and I was in for a realy treat! It was so delicious, generous with the clams, the noodles aren't soggy and it was perfect amount of everything. I wish they had Sara Cradt Ramen in Perth. The place is small which is very Japanese with authentic decors, place is clean, staff are nice and the music is nice and quiet. I am certain I had the peach drink, it was nice so I ordered another one after my first drink. If I ever visit Melbourne again, I will definitely be visiting here again. ”
“ The little ramen joint that everyone should give a try! You get your usual tokotsu ramen however definitely try their special ramen. We had creamy clam truffle ramen and Yuzu duck which was realllly goood. The side dish fried crab was yummy too. Small interior yet cozy. Team was smart and easy to talk to. Give it a shot. ”
