Best meal in Amsterdam

Ramen impossible is a fully vegan restaurant. Their homemade noodles are incredible! I had the Miso Katsu Ramen - it’s was my favourite meal in the Netherlands and the best soup I’ve ever had.

The menu is limited to only a few selections, but each item is amazing! You can’t go wrong.

Very kind and friendly staff, good portions, fully vegan - it’s a must visit

Pros: Fully vegan and friendly staff , Homemade noodles (order extra, they’re good), Great location near the city centre

Really delicious

I absolutely loved the soupless ramen, it was very garlicky in the best way. We went for lunch and did not have to wait, the staff were lovely and helpful. I understand the price point because of the quality of products, but 18€ for one bowl of ramen made me feel like the experience at their other restaurant (Men Impossible) was better value.

Tasty food but needs more options

The food was delicious and the staff were great. I would have reviewed this place higher if they had more options. There were only 3 mains and one was unavailable on the day. I just wanted a simple ramen bowl, but had to get one that came with a side of Katsu (which I couldn’t remove) which made the whole meal quite expensive.
Other than this I did enjoy the flavours and quality of the food.

Ramen

It's a good place for vegan and vegetarian people. There are three types of ramen which are, the three of them, really nice, but a little spicy.
We didn't have to wait much.

Pros: Food, Wait time

The broth is just 💫

I've tried 3-4 ramen places in Amsterdam and they predominantly serve shoyu or miso, but with not so dramatic toppings. The broth at ramen or men impossible is just amazing.

Not as good as Men Impossible

I really like the sister restaurant Men Impossible, so this disappointed me in comparison, so maybe get the soupless ramen, that is probably what I like. But wanting to try something different, we tried the two soup ramens, which were nice but not so flavorful. I prefer the miso to the white silky.

Also, the sauce on the tempura cauliflower was way too strong, it was super super salty.

Absolutely loved this place! The BEST ramen

This is absolutely the best ramen I’ve eaten - loads of flavour, big and filling. The side dishes are great as well. I visited on a trip to Europe and I would do a detour to Amsterdam again just to enjoy the ramen! Highly recommend this place - the staff are lovely as well!

Pros: The BEST ramen, and great sides, Great location, great atmosphere, Great staff and reasonably priced

Such friendly service & a filling meal

We really liked our ramen (followed previous reviewers suggestion to steer clear of the Amaze Men ramen & ordered the Miso Katsu ramen)! The noodles tasted very fresh. We personally enjoyed the corn and arugula (aka rocket) in it. But it is true the corn seemed canned. The service was incredibly friendly. Soft, relaxing music was playing, making it feel a bit like a reprieve from the bustle outside. Would definitely return.

Very disappointing

Terrible ramen. Where do I start? Only two main dishes on the menu, ramen with broth, ramen without broth. Cheap noodles, flavourless broth, weird items for a ramen - tinned sweetcorn and rocket.
If you are gonna go all out and only serve one dish, you’ve got to get it right. Will not return.

Absolutely delicious

This is ramen at its best! I had the miso Katsu ramen and it came with burdock tempura - such an amazing flavour. The staff are lovely, the vibe is relaxed, and the ramen is filling!

Pros: Authentic vegan ramen, No reservations required

Cons: It’s a big portion - be hungry!

A gem 💎

As someone that lives in this neighborhood I can tell you with convenience that is one of the nicest vegan meals you will get here. Try it! And I might say it is as good as the ramen I had in Japan?

Amazing Vegan Ramen

The whole menu is plant-based. You sit down and scan the QR code to access the menu, and you order everything online. My internet wasn’t working. They hide another QR code behind the first one to give you access to their WiFi. First, I ordered “Miso Katsu Ramen,” which was probably the best ramen I have ever had. Perfect noodles and it was like a real ramen soup. Delicious! I devoured it. Still hungry, I ordered the other ramen option called “Amaze men.” To me, this isn’t what I consider ramen. It had a very thick creamy sauce, where it had more the consistency of American fettuccine alfredo. The taste was good, sweeter, but after the first ramen this wasn’t as good at all. If you are dining with a kid or someone who likes creamy noodles, they would probably love it. For me, I want to go back just to get the first real soup-like ramen. It was amazing!

My only real issue was that they don’t really have servers to help you. They just have food and drink runners. I had to get up and go get my own chopsticks and spoon after the guy delivered my second bow of ramen, even though he was the same guy who picked up my empty bowl and first set of utensils. I couldn’t finish the second bowl of “ramen,” and so I asked for a box. He said sure just a moment. After waiting 20 min for him to finish delivering bottled drinks and bring me a box, I got up to pay. I waited in front of him at the counter for another few minutes. He apologized for waiting, went to my table and brought my ramen to the kitchen and left it there for them to box. I paid. He then left to go upstairs and take care of delivering drinks. A few minutes more of waiting, after the initial 20, I could see they had boxed my stuff and it was just sitting there in the prep area. Having now waited over 30 minutes since my meal ended (just to get a box and pay), I just left without my ramen to go. I would have given it 5/5 stars for taste alone, but the “service” was disappointing and made me not enjoy the whole meal as much. I eat out enough in Europe to not expect European servers to rush or even care about quality of service, but it was ridiculous. Regardless, I would definitely go back.
