As I read on various review sites, I had to try this Ramen joint. Ramen costs around 780 yens, so it is not bad. Their menu includes Shiroyu, Shouyu, kuromen, miso, chuka, and Taiwanese (sorry, I didn't know how to read the kanji). I went with Shirayu. The soup is "tonkotsu" (pork) based. There was a line out the door, so be patient. They have upstairs sitting area, too. You line up first. Once you are inside and reach the ticket booth, purchase your ticket. If you are next, someone will take your ticket. My Ramen smelled very tasty and tasted very smooth. Noodles were cooked perfectly, and chashu (slice of pork) was very good. Overall experience was great. I was happy after leaving the restaurant.

I was surprised this had no English reviews...Basically it's posh BBQ-ing, we'll sort off! With Japanese food!!A very good welcome and excellent service, location and of course food.It's about a 10 minute walk from Nagoya station or about 2 minutes from the royal park hotel (where we stayed)Yes it's not the cheapest but at starting prices of about 7,500 yen per person for several courses, so you will definitely be full by the end.Lunch menus are available cheaper. We went about 5.30pm and they accommodated us... Recommend a booking, but they will cater for you. You only have a 2hr window to eat your food. (So you can guess from that time frame that you get lots of food)Can't praise this place enough!What are you waiting for?

love spicy food and found the taiwan ramen, chicken wings, clams and mapo tofu very satisfying! but if mildly spicy is your preference, you might want to go for the non-spicy dishes on the menu. dishes are slightly on the salty side, so good to go with plain rice.

This place was recommended by the Marriott hotel manager and it was an absolute hit. It is on the 41st floor of the Midland Square tower and there are at least two tables right on the window with awesome city views. For dinner you can choose between Shabu Shabu and sukiyaki. Similar things, but taste is not the same. Price differs by the category of beef you order, either Y10k or 12k per head. Comes with veggie and noodle to cook in the pot. Surprisingly the lower grade tasted better for us, not too fatty. Both types were excellent for sure.Service was excellent. Very japanese. Price was not cheap at USD 100 per head, but well worth it.

Yabaton is an institution and a tourist attraction in Nagoya. Unfortunately, it does not live up to the hype. I've had way better Tonkatsu (try for example Agezuki in Kagurazaka in Tokyo for a completely different level). The fat inside tonkatsu should dissolve and turn the meat juicy and tender. Here the fat was rubbery and the meat hard and chewy. It has either to do with the quality of the meat or the lack of technique in cooking it. Or both.The miso tare poured over here was sweet and had a bit of the nice miso umami to it. But no real depth to it. It is clearly precooked in a factory kitchen somewhere and then transported to every branch of the restaurant.There is better tonkatsu out there. Just do a bit of research, and you'll find it in no time.

Pretty fun restaurant. Only problem is the typical smoking going on everywhere! Can't believe Japan doesn't quit this practice in restaurants. Funny you can't smoke in the street but you can in almost every restaurant! Chicken wings are good here.

Very busy Taiwanese based Chinese restaurant in Imaike, Nagoya. It is just 10-15 minutes taxi ride from centre of Nagoya, Sakae. This place is famous for Taiwan Ramen and this is a great spicy & garlicky Ramen!! Good soup and good noodle. We also had some garlic fried rice and garlic roots. They were all excellent. Inside the restaurant is very ordinary but you can have great food here. I've been here over 10 times during the last 4-5 years and they are always good. It can be noisy and busy. Their Chinese waiters are always a bit rough but this is typical with any other Chinese restaurants I guess. If you are in Nagoya then try this place!! You will love the Taiwan Ramen(If you like it spicy!!).

Despite this restaurant has 2 floors, open space and many seat, is crowded every day. It may be because the popularity of this restaurant and the low price of each dish.Taiwanese ramen is a popular menu, but I think that there is no dish that can be excellent. Many dishes may be addictive, in addition to being spicy. Taiwanese ramen of Misen has itself become a brand, it is sold for home cooking.You may feel that the service at the restaurant is a bit slapdash. The dish care is halfway, when dishes are served, you may feel that the dishes are clammy. But some people will be tolerable. Because they have to cope with many orders and dishes quickly.

Firstly, the Sumo Wrestler Pig is definitely an iconic symbol of this shop. Secondly, if you are coming to this location and using a map application to find it, use a mixture of map and good intuition. I wandered around for a while before I actually found out I was walking the outside perimeter of Meitetsu, and I totally missed the '9F' in the address, as my map kept recommending I go to the basement. Nope, 9th Floor, and it's basically right outside the elevator--with a huge line of people.Now, the line intimidated me, after I spent so long trying to track down the location, but it moved amazingly fast! 20 people disappeared in roughly 10 minutes. This is helped because they take your order ahead of time, so when you sit down it's only a few minutes before your order appears before you.Warning to English Speakers. When I asked for Eigo (English) Menu, for the first time, I was told they only carry Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. Don't worry, this stunned all my Japanese friends, except the most snooty of them. Still, we spoke enough to get my order taken.If you're there for Miso Katsu and you're relatively hungry, get their largest portion. There is a 'first timer' option which costs a little less with half the serving (1200 Yen vs 1600 Yen, I think), but it's a far better deal to go all the way if you can eat. The regular portion was good sized, but I was able to eat again a few hours later.So after a short wait, I was seated. They offer cold green tea in pitchers. For my plate, it arrived, and they quickly covered it with a generous pour of aka (red) miso, I believe. I didn't really get to read anything while I was there for my own clarification. As I said, the portion was decent--sliced tonkatsu covered in miso sauce, a bowl of rice, and a bowl of miso. The flavor combination was definitely unique, a twist on more plain katsu I've had in Japan and abroad, a bit more robust and less salty. This alone made me wish I ordered a larger serving. They also had Yabaton gifts and merchandise, which I stopped to look at. I slightly regret not buying their T-shirt, as I said, the image is very iconic, and my friend loves pigs--just not for eating. That said, even though this is one of several locations nearby, it was pretty crowded, and it's not a huge location--there's just a lot of foot traffic with Nagoya Station so close to Meitetsu Department Store.
