All 3 were extremely good and came piping hot to the table. The tan tan is a bit spicy so if you're not a fan of spice I would choose something else. They also add in corn which I thought was an interesting twist. If you're looking for a good ramen spot, definitely go here.

They don't take any phone calls and no reservation. The menu is very very limited to 4-6 dishes. The karaage was ok but there was no Japanese Mayo. The ramen was totally disappointing to a point that we couldn't eat it. The vegan miso comes with thick noodles and all ramens have almost no toppings. They come with noodle and soup only. The vegan miso tasted slightly burned. The shoyu ramen had a strong pork taste and overall we wouldn't come back or recommend this spot

A good looking bowl can be deceiving…read more I had men men on my list of ramen in Berlin to try from the pictures alone. It just recently opened after a serious renovation. I got the shoyu ramen. Portion size is a little small. Noodles were perfectly al dente and a good diameter. Low alkalinity in the flour mix so they tasted a bit like pasta to me. Broth was salted correctly but was missing the savory notes that make the salt tolerable. Seemed to be chicken based. Very little fat in the bowl. Pork tasted like sliced tenderloin. Not bad but definitely not what I want in a bowl of ramen. Too chewy and under seasoned. The egg was in between hardboil and soft boil. Some of it had solidified and it did not appear to be marinated. Bean sprouts, sprouts, spring onion, and boc choy were all prepared well. There were elements here that have potential but I wouldn't come back again unless I hear it has changed a lot.

The food was SO GOOD. Compared to other food in Berlin it was a little higher than usual (mine was €12) but the portions are decently sized and I still think it was worth it. Seating was fine when we went (around 4pm on a Monday) and there were a few different table options to choose from. They even offered us free tap water which I always appreciate. I'd definitely go back- the food here is lovely.

Why? 1) the broth is far too thick and creamy. It's like you've left your noodles in water for too long where the water sucks in all the starch from the noodles that makes the small amount of water super thick. 2) The noodles and ramen therefore are very heavy. What i liked: the noodles are chewy al dente. They have eggs and bamboo which is good. Would I come again? - No. takumi is by miles better than hako. If you like creamy thick heavy broth ramen. Give this a try. Otherwise, there are better spots in Berlin.
