I enjoyed my visit yesterday. Staff were very friendly and polite. My first time there and I would definitely go again. Food was delicious, just would have wanted a bit more curry with on the Katsu chicken but was still tasty. Would definitely recommend

This is the best ramen I've had in my life! I've been traveling around the country and Europe ,for work,and never have I found anything, as close to that taste! Knowing that my partner surprised me with a trip to Cardiff, just so i can have that experience again. I think he got annoyed by me saying every place we go " it's not as good". Makes me sad I can't visit on regular basis, but i have to say: Thank you, for the best ramen in my life!
P.S. I wish I knew how to make it myself lol

A disappointing meal and over an hours wait for some mediocre sushi. The staff were attentive and though but the quality of food has gone downhill. Hope for a better experience ever since coming back but they seem to care more about the aesthetic of the restaurant rather than the customers. A real shame from a loyal customer.
