Was a lovely dinner for me and my group, only comment I have is that even though we all ordered different ramen dishes, they were all just a bit too salty... Otherwise would recommend :)

Wonderful ramen......extremely tasty. Very knowledgeable chefs that know their trade. Great service and atmosphere. £15 lunch menu is a winner.

Delicious food but service was off. Second time going and both times sat at the kitchen counter. First time sat directly in front of the chefs and had a great experience, chatting about the food and cooking. Second time sat more towards the bar area and it was not a good experience. The bartender didn’t seem interested in engaging in conversation the way the chefs were, which especially stood out because the people sat down from us nearer the chefs were constantly being engaged with and chatted to. Additionally, once we’d finished our ramen the bill was brought to us without being asked for and with half of our drinks left, no offer of seeing a dessert menu which we were wanting but completely put off of and felt pushed out. Other front of house were no issue, just seems the bartender isn’t interested in giving quality service. It would’ve been understandable if there’d been a turn on the table and, as a walk-in, we’d been informed when sitting that there was a tight turn, but it didn’t seem that busy and there were many tables empty and from where we were sat could see the POS that showed no other tables booked for where we were so it just felt like we were being pushed out for no reason. As I say the food was great and I’d still come back, just only if I wasn’t sat on the bar side of the counter.
