'Hard' equates to around al dente in pasta terms. The soup is nice and flavoursome. Staff is friendly. Very nice for a quick ramen fix in a handy location.

I've walked past this restaurant numerous times walking down Victoria Avenue in Chatswood and I've…read morewondered if its any good. We've been here about 3 times and every time it's been great. They have a unique treat called 'Onigiri', which is a traditional type of Sushi thats in a triangle - the thing about it is that the way it is wrapped, the seaweed wrapper never touches the rice/filling, which results in a very fresh and crispy wrapper. They come in various flavours, and if you want to try some I would advise getting there before 7pm (as there is limited stock). The Ramen is great. Beware their 'Volcano' hot ramens as they are very spicy. The 'Volcano' was too much for my gf who prides herself on being able to eat hot foods... and I have no idea how someone can have the 'Super Volcano' variant. I really enjoy their Waygu Beef Curry Udon, which is really tasty. Their other dishes are good too; the Agadashi tofu is great, crispy and soft with delicious sauce. Gyoza was tasty. I would recommend trying it if you are looking for Japanese in Chatswood.

Ohhh, ramen. Do I love ramen. I would bathe in that sweet oily pork broth if I could find someone…read morewho'd sell me a bath-tub of the stuff. Maybe throw in a few of those preserved eggs, they've gotta be good for your skin, right? I've eaten here maybe three times and each time I've had company, but I'm saving one particular menu item for when I come here alone: the Volcano Ramen, a super spicy extra hot-to-trot bowl of glowing vesuvian goodness. Cannot. Wait.

Mate! Yelp is now Down Under! Let the Yelping begin…read more.. Love this place. Always make a point to stop here when I'm in the area -- my friends live around the corner from here so it makes for an easy dinner! AND it's BYO. Many a bottle of Sapporo has been enjoyed here outside on a warm summer evening. I remember writing a review for a local publication two years after they opened. Some things have changed - for one, they expanded into the next door area, so seating is not as much as a challenge as it used to be. My favorite is the negi miso ramen. https://s3-media3.ak.yelpcdn.com/photo/krJrdW3q23kLwMkgqR0PPA/l.jpg Have yet to find another spot (at least in Sacramento) that has it the way they do it here: strands of finely chopped negi (Welsh onion) heaping atop a steaming bowl of noodles. They also serve up gyoza, curry rice, katsu don - the usual Japanese restaurant comfort food staples. Practice your Japanese while you're here. Situated in a plaza on the way to the train, you can also pick up some Japanese comics across the way or drop in for some mochi ice cream at the corner store.

A sister restaurant of the ones in Campsie and Ashfield. The menu doesn't offer as much of a…read morevariety as the other stores but the standards of ramen and sushi platters are all there. Hubby and I opted for ramen on a cold damp day, we were going to order one each, however we stumbled upon the "Godzilla Ramen". There was a note next to the photo indicating $1 refund if you finish it alone. With that, it seemed to indicate that it may be enough for two so we ordered one of those, and a spicy tuna roll. (Trying to be frugal at the moment). Godzilla ramen - deeelicious!! The ramen came with thick slices of charshu, chicken karage, teriyaki (?) chicken, egg, corn, bamboo shoots, black fungus strips in miso broth. Definitely filling for two! Spicy tuna roll - as a person seeking the taste of a standard spicy tuna roll from Los Angeles, CA, this one was quite decent. Rather than a more minced type tuna, they did use chunks mixed with spicy mayo and Japanese chilli powder (Shichi-mi tōgarashi). It satisfies the craving. Verdict - a good go-to for ramen and simple sushi fix

I was drawn in by the Yaki Soba and Yaki Udon, a classic Japanese festival food. The staff were polite (but what Japanese person in a service position isn't?) but I was very disappoint when I was told their Pork Buns are pan fried not steamed. I passed on that and stuck to the Yaki Udon... It was definitely yucky! The dish definitely has some locational influence with the traditional radish replaced with pumpkin however they have slaughtered my old favourite and my taste buds were greeted with an overly salty, very sloppy dish. Very disappointed.

This is a close second to Roy's Noodles which has more variation on soup (ramen) stock bases that are mostly pork but with some seafood and chicken base soups. Toriichi is all chicken based ramen soup stock and some great spicy ramens ( I had seasonal spicy garlic special) and "dry" (non soup) noodle options. Also worth trying are the gyoza (we had leek and spicy versions - both excellent!) as well as the yuzu karaage chicken which was tasty and very succulent. Will definitely be coming back again soon to try some of the other menu options.

Alas i got the Miso-katsu with crumbed chicken and my partner got the Yakiniku beef (spicy). You can have in or takeaway, mostly people had pre-ordered and just picked up. They have daily specials, When we went it was Teriyaki Salmon. Overall, good food, reasonable price and wasn't too busy so you can enjoy you dinner in peace.

I am a sucker for Asian Cuisine, especially Japanese and especially their ramen and chicken. Already ate some of the noodles I don't remember now but I saw this secret menu thing online but it was tonkotsu+spicy broth I think.. It was exactly what I wanted. The noodles were perfectly cooked. Not too hard, not too soggy and the egg was so perfect and it was steaming hot!! The karaage chicken was also so yummy and it came out piping hot. Don't remember what mum ordered but she loved her ramen as well. Price is awesome for what you get although we were in a long queue, it took less than 10 minutes to get us in. I'm planning to go again this weekend. 12/10

Chef Morita pays extreme attention to detail in sourcing the right product, presenting each course with exacting balance and appearance, while maintaining traditional methods. Even the sushi rice used comes from a rice 'sommelier' in Japan sourcing a custom product. The balance between fish, rice and sauce is absolute perfection. There are no shortcuts taken here - I hope every customer can appreciate how much thought and effort go into making this top notch authentic Japanese dining experience.
