Ordered the suicide ramen expecting a nice slice. Although the noodles were flavorful, they were not at all spicy and I wished they were. The restaurant was a cozy, clean space with a friendly owner. Would come back to try something else. read more

Amazing place, delicious food too! You must try their ramens, the broth is extreamly rich and flavourful, sweet and salty, magnifique!!! Service is wonderful, even if you are coming for the first time you feel as all the staff knows you. They treat you with care and friendliness, it makes you feel welcomed. The restaurant has a charming small family owned business, that to me makes it even more valuable. Big hearts and big plates!! read more

I got the brisket soba noodles which came topped with sesame paste. The dish was good, especially for its price point which was very affordable. However, as you keep eating, the paste becomes too overwhelming and the dish overall was way too oily. My friend had ordered the suicide ramen, of which was not that spicy. While the chili oil had a good taste, the ramen had no spice whatsoever. Owner was very nice and attentive and I loved the atmosphere of the place. read more

Friendly service and really good in house chilli oil (be sure to try it)! I had a chance to try their ramen, but I would not say that it's good, it's a bit plain and tasteless to me - I had to add a bit of chilli oil to give it more taste. They have a wide variety of side dishes/appetizers which were decent and presented very well. read more

I was skeptical of how well the fusion dishes would turn out and it was warranted. We tried the chashu and brisket ramen dishes and they were mediocre... noodles were too soft and meat wasn't great in quality. I think noodle texture is important for ramen so I would skip this next time. The apps were yummy tho! I had the pan fried baos and takoyaki and would get these again. Our waitress was also pretty attentive and friendly so that's a plus. read more

Exclamation - Takoyaki - Asian Fusion Near Me - Waterloo, Ontario

AMAZING FOOD: the exclamation ramen was beautifully crafted: the broth was rich, presentation was picturesque with shallots, crab, and what I think was pork on top of all the noodles, it brought the whole dish together. The noodles were really tasty too. THE SERVICE! WOW!! The lady who sat and served us had a beautiful sole: she would smile every time she talked with us and was passionate. AMBIENCE! GREAT: The restaurant was really beautiful on the inside as well. I loved the sleek darkness to it with a minamalist lighting scheme that added to the congeniality. The dishes and utensils added matched the vibe and we're very nice as well. The music was surround sound and not too loud but not too quiet at the same time. The music being played was very relaxing, usually piano music, and made me feel comfortable and welcomed. It was also very good conversation music: not too distracting. IF YOU READ THIS FAR, GO THERE!! read more

Food is delicious (cheese wontons, fried bao, shrimp har gow all delicious. Service is friendly and fast. Has a warm family feel.

The best in Waterloo. Fast service and the people who own the restaurant are incredibly kind. Highly recommended the chicken katsu don

It's a Asian fusion place. They made a modern style decor as well as their menu. They offer different secret menu everyday. They provide a very nice service, the server were cute and checked us very often. The BGM sometimes could be some ACG music, which is very nice. I have tried their ramen, eel rice, rib porridge and Pan-Fried Mantou( the last two are in their secret menu that day). All of them are well-cooked and delicious. Although they are not in a large portion, they are enough to get full. The price is considerable. Two people only cost about $30 and will be full. Their secret menu would be different everyday. You can walk in and ask them about the details. read more

Update: went here a few months ago again... Got food poisoning from bento box. Yikes :( --- Pretty good ramen here! The broth is rich, the noodles were soft and chewy, and the portions are filling. Plus you get a decent variety of other ingredients as well! For the Exclamation ramen, there was cha shu and beef. The meats were tender and flavourful. I think I'd prefer the cha shu ramen better though because the beef was cut into dense little chunks which didn't suit me. The katsu in the chicken katsu ramen was fried nicely, simply delicious! Oh, we also got takoyaki. Very well done, lots of benito flakes and good amount of squid. Although it did take a while for the food to arrive, the lady serving us was so sweet and attentive throughout the whole meal. So I'd say it was well worth the wait! I think this is the ramen place that Waterloo needed: the food is yummy, filling and cheap! Definitely drop by, it's a new business that deserves some attention. read more

The meat quality was fantastic, presentation very good, ramen looks high quality and good texture. Service was exceptional. We ordered the forest ramen, and exclamation ramen. There was lots of variety of veggies and meats in our meal. Will definitely come back. read more

I've been here twice and have ordered both ramen and rice dishes. Their ramen is better than Kenzo, but still not great. Their chicken katsu and self-serve oden bar however, deserve some special recognition. The chicken katsu was fried to perfection, and the oden was very flavourful. read more

Went with my boyfriend today and ordered a bento box and the Exclamation Ramen and i cant help but rave about how good the food was. I've been all over GTA eating Japanese food and no other ramen comes close to the ramen I had from here. Both dishes were beautiful and incredibly tasty. The bento box came with fried dumplings, katsu chicken, a fried springroll, pickled vegetables, soup, and a dessert bun with yellow pudding inside. I've had this bun from many Asian places but this is the best one I've ever had. This is my new go-to place and would bring my family here. I'd also like to mention that the restaurant itself is beautiful and the chef and the lady that served us were extremely kind. read more

New Asian fusion place, only opened 4 months ago. The decor is very modern and welcoming, which is what caught our eye! The service was great, a very friendly waitress who checked in on us often. Food took a little bit to come out but it was hot and sizzling, definitely freshly made. I got the BBQ pork lo mein, it was just like what my mom makes at home. My girlfriend got the garlic rib bento box, which came with a wide assortment of things in addition to rice and ribs. She said it was "yummy". We also got ice cream on the house! read more

Has a modern look and clean atmosphere. Almost like a gallery with art pieces hung around the wall. Two of us went in to get ramen expecting Japanese style as ramen is a type of food referred to Japanese noodle dish. Menu was not clear with very little description. Asked the waiter about the ramen but didn't get much answer other than it has chicken-based broth. We ordered the exclamation ramen and chicken Katsu don. Ramen we received had very strong fish flavour. Don't expect Japanese ramen and you should think of them more as Chinese lo-mein noodle soup with fishy flavour. Chicken Katsu don was alright. Teriyaki sauce was so-so and only garnish is cucumber slices covered with mayo and teriyaki sauce. Chicken was sub-mediocore. Female waiteress was very accommodating and friendly. read more

Very friendly customer service and the BBQ pork with rice has a wonderful taste! Strongly recommend to try the dishes with rice here! However, the ramen is just average to me. read more

Literally the best and tastiest ramen ever - everything was too perfect, and the staff are absolutely amazing. I come here all the time and it has never been a disappointment! read more

I was on my way to Bao when I noticed this place on the side of the road and decided to give this a try. Overall, food was not bad but also was not anything special. There is also a good amount of variety on the menu. However, the meat ball ramen I had was nothing special given soup base was plain and the "meat balls" (cuttlefish, beef and fishballs) tasted very average. Essentially, it could be cooked at home by myself. The popcorn chicken was pretty good and came hot which I enjoyed. As for service, I do need to give a thumbs up given that the waitress checked on us throughout and showed good customer service. read more

Came to exclamation for dinner. When we walked in, there were only 2 other table seated with people and 3 tables with dirty dishes on it. It was unpleasant having to sit at a table that was surrounded with tables with dirty dishes while the staff just sat and stood around. The food was mediocre. It was overpriced for the amount of food you get. Overall, I will not be back. read more
