Ramen Do

Ramen was nice, and the service was efficient. The restaurant was very dark inside. Unfortunately, the waitress didn't seem friendly as she didn't greet customers and didn't smile at all. Perhaps she wasn't having a good day...not sure. I'm not so keen to visit again, as there are plenty of other options for authentic ramen restaurants.

Cook when you order is the most significant capability of the Ramen DO. The atmosphere here was good and with many Japanese-style decorations, such as sake bottles, posters, and lanterns. The size of the ramen is enormous, and the BBQ pork was excellent. However, the soul of the ramen is its soup, and unfortunately, it did not fit my flavor.

Incredible ramen 🍜 Absolute perfection in the art of ramen. This place deserves five stars, easily. The bad/mediocre reviews are from people who are happy to eat authentic ramen, but not within the authentic ramen-house culture. They want westernised atmosphere, service and culture serving authentic Japanese food at a reasonable price - and that is bollox imo. Dining out is a wholistic experience and anyone who disrespects this restaurant are not appreciating the nuance. This beautiful, reasonably priced, delicious, generous, sumptuous and authentic ramen is served by two people. Family run. A presumably married couple. This is essentially their front room and home. Show some respect‼️ People will not wait patiently or even observe how busy the sous-chef/waiter/front of house lady is before demanding immediate attention. People don’t bother to do the homework that clearly details the politely requested preference that you BOOK before coming. They also criticise the decor without appreciating the reasonable prices that are due to it. Come on guys… if you want authentic ramen for an extortionate price in a westernised bourgeois atmosphere with continental cocktails and plentiful staff to kiss your a$$ - go to Ponsonby’s Chop Chop noodle house. It is another amazing eatery, but NOT an authentic ramen house. When you come to Ramen Do taste this excellence and experience the culture surrounding it. Enjoy the incredibly reasonable prices and the privilege of access you have to the two people who are bringing this gift of soups to you. Rant over 💅🏻
