We had pork gyoza as starters and ordered the shoyu ramen and the spicy miso. The gyoza was very good and both ramen were quite good. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. Staff was friendly but it took them some time to help us even though they were just chilling at the bar.
The pork Ramen bowl is hearty and delicious. There is only four small pieces of meat, the broth is good. The atmosphere is really nice, romantic.Inexpensive.
Great veggie ramen. Went with the spicy and not disappointed. Not super spicy, but with a kick. Vegan tip - be sure to order without the hard boiled egg!
Pros:- Delicious food! The Pad Thai was tasty, and the Vermut was enjoyable. - Good variety of desserts.- Ideal spot if you’re in the area and looking for a quick meal.Cons:- The place is small and seating is on shared tables, so you need your whole group to be present to sit. This can be inconvenient.- The street outside has an unpleasant smell.- High demand means the experience feels rushed; you’re expected to eat and leave quickly.Final Thought:While it’s not my top choice, it’s worth a visit if you’re nearby. I recommend trying their branch in the Gótico for a potentially better experience.
The place has a nice dim atmosphere and the staff greet you at the door right away. They open on time as scheduled and even help you choose from the menu. The gypza is nice soft, crispy and flavorful, the ramen was rich and the portion was just right (not small, not too big), and the desert was a nice fresh touch at the end.
