Tasty Ramen - Edit
Nice Restaurant with tasty Ramen. Crew is very friendly und helps ordering, just tell them you are vegan (Side dishes). If you do not add egg to your Ramen, every Ramen is vegan.

So tasty!! - Edit
Amazing ramen, can customize everything.
Read moreThey do have an english menu so you can choose from it, and then go to the kiosk to order and pay (it's all in mandarin but a staff member will help you, you can just point on the english menu what you want and they'll order for you)
Every Thursday they make a special ramen, so there's one more option to choose from.
The ramen and the tofu I had were delicious, and the staff was very nice
Will come back to try the other ramen!
Edit. I came back on a Sunday evening at 8:30pm, there was a line but it was quick. A few items were sold out (2 ramen and all side dishes) so come early if you want more choices

Amazing Jap veg food! - Edit
The establishment was bustling and very efficient in getting customers seated.
Read moreOrdering was a little daunting (especially if your mandarin chinese isn't good) but I made it through in the end.
I was a little put off by the self-ordering kiosk that only had traditional chinese words and a service staff had to come by to help speed the process along.
Every morsel of the dishes I had tasted excellent and I have never had anything similar before! I'm a vegetarian and don't eat alliums, and my guest is a meat-eater who has a raw egg yolk allergy, so the menu worked great for both of us.
Their menu consists of lacto-ovo-veg, vegan, allium-veg options and are extremely customisable. You could even customise the noodle's al-dente-ness and many other ingredients.
The white soup I got was amazing and they also had red and black versions (which is similar to what a normal Japanese establishment would have).
The aburi-style 'pork' rice was mind-blowingly good to me and for the extremely cheap price, I am utterly impressed!
I hope that they come up with English versions for their self-ordering kiosk in time to come, and that card payment will be accepted too.
The service was amazing and the wait staff were super observant. Highly recommend!
Pros: Depth in flavour, Customisable noodle done-ness, Customisable salty-ness
Cons: Slightly oily, Cash payment only, Traditional chinese self-ordering kiosk

Zero Stars - oily mess that made me sick - Edit
Order and payment through a machine (all in Chinese so the waitress had to help).
Read moreGot the soymilk ramen - I asked if the egg thay usually goes with it can be substituted for the fried mushrooms, but not possible.
Also got a side dish of wonton and vegan pork belly. Came out to 350 or so.
Total disappointment.
Everything came drenched in oil and bland.
No idea how pork belly tastes in real life, but it tasted like a disgusting, oily, salty jell-o.
My stomach was really upset afterwards.
Avoid!

Very tasty ramen - Edit
Very impressed with the food quality and service. The waitress gave us a tutorial how to taste the ramen, had specific steps, was easy and fun to follow. They provide different level of saltiness and firmness, 👍🏻 and above all else, tastes great!!!
