I’m still thinking about this ramen days later! Stumbled upon this spot on a Saturday night was thoroughly impressed. Everything you want from a bowl of ramen— warm and flavourful. I had to try the syouyu tonkotsu ramen because it seems like a big deal, and rightfully so! You’re able to pick the fat and garlic levels on this one, and fair warning they deliver what you ask for! You can see the mountain of fatty broth on top of all the noodles and bean sprouts. Lots of flavour and exactly as expected. I’d say it’s a little heavy on the bean sprouts and light on the actual meat though. The spicy tonkotsu was the real star of the show. Great flavours and a rich broth to go with it! Egg is included for this bowl. Overall a really satisfying meal!

I keep returning for their spicy plant-based ramen – it’s simply unbeatable!
The option to sit on the patio with my furry friend adds to the charm.
The staff’s attention to detail truly impressed me; they brought water for my dog without me even asking. With a vast range of options and varieties, there’s a ramen for everyone here.

Highly recommend for both ramen enthusiasts and pet owners!
This place have a soul there, all details even in a washroom you can find a mouthwash. So impressive.

Ramen is crazy rich and fatty in the best possible way! I love my ramen to be rich and thick and this is the richest I've ever had! My friend had the tonkotsu and it was excellent. I had the special Syouyu tonkotsu where you can choose the level of fat and garlic. I was going to ask for max fat and garlic but our waitress highly advised to get the least amount of fat and garlic. I'm glad I listened to her because I could barely finish! If you're a fan of extra rich and thick ramen then this is the place to go! Extra points for the added for the extra authentic feel of the all Japanese staff!

While this is not my favourite ramen place, their service and atmosphere are always top notch. The patio is ideal for hanging out having beers and ramen.

Their tonkotsu is always very rich in flavour and the portions are always generous.

Would definitely recommend their regular tonkotsu and if you like spicy flavours then get the spicy version.

This is my second visit. And this place is perhaps the only place (at least that I know of) that does Okinawa soba, not something I normally go for but when I do want one, this is also a good place to come to!

I enjoyed their other dishes too and look forward coming back!

The chili oil is also pretty awesome, adding a nice touch to the bowl of awesomeness!

The tonkotsu ramen was so rich and flavourful. Great pork flavour. Would definitely come back again! The Okinawa soba noodles have a great texture to them, thick and bouncy. More of a egg noodle/udon hybrid but very good. Will be back to try the other dishes! Service was quick on a Friday night.

Tondou Ramen Provided Fresh Ramen The Ramen Was Very Tasty! It Took More Than 10 Minutes But Worth The Wait The Lemonade Was Very Refreshing They Provided Us With Helpful Staff And Sanitary Tables You Have Sauces And Sesame Seed In The Side And Sadly I Forgot To Take A Photo With The Ramen But I Got Full Because How Fresh And Great The Soup Was There Is No Menu You Have To Use The QR Code.

I have been here multiple times now and the waiters are so sweet! I really enjoy the ramen every time I come here. I get the Tonkotsu Ramen everytime usually because I love it so much.
I like the atmosphere and the service was fast and the food comes really quick! I was taken back at how fast that bowl of ramen came! I even took my friend here and they were taken back at how fast that bowl of ramen came! Again, I really liked the waiters. They smiled and were nice and friendly.

One thing to keep in mind is that this place doesn't have cash on hand. They will accept cash for a payment but they dont have change to give you back.

Overall, I enjoyed the food and the service and I will definitely be coming back here!
