I visited Zubu for promotion course menu. We can choose 1 appetizer, 1 ramen, 1 dessert, and 1 drink(mocktail or beer or wine!!) This is one of the best deal I ever seen. We chose 5 pieces karaage, 1 tonkotsu ramen, 1 ramen flight(chicken soup base, tonkotsu, and vegan) and Aburi Cheesecake(extra CAD5.00) and mochi ice cream. For drink, I ordered Tokyo Sunshine mocktails(pineapple, peach, lychee, lime, mint), and partner had a Sapporo beer. We were so surprised Karaage's portion! They were very generous amount and came on large plate!! Tonkotsu ramen was decent. I liked Chicken soup base one (Ramen flight)which was very creamy and smooth, bold flavor. Vegan one was very spicy. Bean curd on the top was unique. Noodle was very good, too. Mochi ice cream was decent. Aburi cheesecake's torching presentation was amazing. This was second time I had this cheesecake. However, Cheesecake texture required refinement. The last one was better. I prefer more smooth texture. And Mocktail was great. Strong pineapple, lychee flavor and tasted great. Overall, we were really satisfied the meal. Service was great and quick. Highly recommend this special menu while it is available. read more

I got a Groupon deal for 2. The Groupon deal came with a shared green salad, shared chicken kaarange, two flights ramen sampler, shared dessert and 2 glasses of either wine, beer or sake. We paid $53 for the deal which was not bad. The ramen flight came with a vegetarian mala soup based ramen, Tonkotsu Ramen and Creamy Chicken Ramen. I really liked the Tonkotsu ramen and the creamy chicken ramen. The vegetarian was my least favorite because I am not a fan of numbing spice. The broth for both the Tonkotsu Ramen and the Chicken Ramen were very rich and flavorful. I got the thin noodles and they were not bad. The restaurant was a lot smaller than it looks from the outside. Inside was clean. Service was ok. read more

Zubu, located just next to metrotown (Walmart/T&T area, where the old Zellers was, and where Bread Garden used to be), is in a pretty prime spot as you will see it driving along Central Blvd. But the parking. Not sure if it shares the metrotown parkade though. I have been here a few times and I like the ramen. My favorite is the spicy tonkotsu ramen. I prefer the "thick" noodle which is the classic. The thin noodle is like vermicelli to me. I like the broth to be rich too. The house salad and fried chicken are tasty. The temaki is also good but quite small. Love the Brussels sprouts. On my last visit, I had the ramen flight where you get 3 tiny bowls of ramen to try. They are spicy vegan, creamy chicken and tonkotsu. All are good though I don't like the soucy vegan as it's actually mala spicy where it's a numbing spice. I much prefer the usual spicy where you get the heat but not the numbness. Some of us requested non spicy when the server took our order. But it came spicy. When we asked about it, apparently the chef said no to making it non spicy. Then what's the point of asking if we can take spicy food? I went to look at the menu online and there is non spicy version! Server is great but the chef or whoever was in charge, not so much. So basically it's either suffer the burn and numbness or just leave that spicy ramen untouched. They are usually pretty good at accommodation, so I don't know what happened. Just be careful to dine here if you have allergies or can't take spicy food. read more

Starting the new year with a 5 star review on this cozy food spot because Zubu at Metrotown has delivered numerous good dining experiences over the years and I appreciate restaurant consistency. I applaud this location for keeping up its service through all its staffing changes because we all know how tough it can be to train staff. It offers a clean and cozy environment with fair service for lunch, happy hour or dinners. Thus, it has my 5 stars for its solid delivery of over couple dozen meals for me, and my friends & family with overall 8 to 9 out of 10 on food taste and presentation. This is not a "let me WOW you" with extreme extravagance place; instead, this place has won me over with genuine friendly service and its consistency in simple dishes. I actually don't always order rice and ramen when dining alone here; I prefer to order hand rolls and their appetizers here as a full meal. Some of my favorite dishes are ebi mayo, salad, fries, salmon taco, brussel sprouts tempura, and hand rolls. Dessert and drinks are my "must adds" to a full meal experience here. Thus I liked how they have expanded dessert menu so it's not just ice cream and that they also add new drinks to their beverage offerings and main menu items. I like their lavender and plum sake and the variety of flavors such as grapefruit beer etc. They actually have the lemon beer from Japan which is very refreshing! This is also a good location with free parking via Metrotown and it is a notch above in comfort and service from Metrotown Food court or Starbucks, especially when craving green tea or fizzy drinks with some light bites during happy hour. $3.95 green tea would beat the bubble tea places that lack the authentic green tea flavors and happy hour drinks here beat an overpriced Starbucks drink in my books. Finally, I am impressed by their yummy seasonal specials and honest loyalty program as I have actually enjoyed free yummies like rice bowl and it's not a program of endless accumulation with a long road to reward redemption. Recent December specials included $50 gift card with a $10 voucher and the seasonal menu offered huge bone marrow ramen. This spot has nice chilled vibes for dates and quick service for takeout orders. It may not be the most ideal for large groups, unless your group can fit at the rectangular bar in the front which probably can seat groups of 8 to 10 people. Zubu at Metrotown remain on my list of good Burnaby places to dine in and takeout in 2026! read more

ZUBU - Ramen Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

Ramen place just S of Metropolis, on Central just S of the S parkade by the Walmart. I assume this building technically isn't part of the mall complex. Not sure if the mall (Metropolis) parking is supposed to be used for this place, but I imagine nobody would check. There is very little street parking around. The place looks pretty trendy and modern. Dark wood trim and somewhat dim lighting. Reminds me of eating in a forest for some reason. Staff are friendly and helpful. No complaints. As of the time of writing, there is a lunch special that includes an appetizer and dessert. However, the bowl is "mini" (or "medium") size. I asked the waitress to show me the 3 bowl sizes. Their "large" bowl is a "small/regular" bowl at other places. In other words, I think I would've starved to death if I ordered the lunch menu. Their "small" bowl could be used for holding peanuts at a bar. In other words, stick to the "large" bowl. Honestly I wasn't too happy with portion sizes. Knock 1 star off. Ramen quality is decent. Nice light broth, with a choice of "thin" or "thick" noodles. My understanding is that "thin" is the original, and that "thick" isn't really that much different (probably still less thick than pho). Pork slices were pretty good. Served with crispy garlic, 2 sheets of seaweed, some wood ear (fungus), and green onions. I also got their soft boiled egg for an extra charge. Not as soft/gooey as I would've liked, but it was acceptable. I guess this place is a somewhat decent option, but there are several other choices in the immediate vicinity including nearby Crystal Mall. read more

we were a party of seven for dinner on a saturday at 6:30 pm. reservations were made by phone the night before. we picked this spot because of its vegan friendly menu, a big plus when dining with dietary restrictions. tucked near metrotown on the walmart side (where the old bread garden used to be), with parking available at metrotown metropolis. we had high hopes for the garlic fries, but they didn't quite deliver. they were more bland than bold, and no garlic in sight. the texture was okay, but they weren't particularly crisp, and someone in our group said they reminded them of the masala fries from mcdonald's. paprika on top was an odd touch. i went with the creamy chicken ramen in a mini bowl, a solid choice if you want something light. it wasn't mind blowing, but it was comforting enough. we shared the chicken karaage, which turned out to be the best dish of the night, fresh, crisp, juicy, and exactly what you want when ordering fried chicken. service was polite but spotty. it took multiple tries to flag someone down to order gyozas, dessert, and to get the bill. staff were friendly, but we were seated at the back, and we were not in their line of sight. dessert was a bit of a mixed bag. the mochi ice cream (yuzu, matcha, and mango) tasted like the kind you'd get at t&t, not bad, just nothing special. yuzu was the standout. the cheesecake, which was torched tableside and recommended by our server, looked impressive but fell flat on flavour. style over substance. overall, it's a decent spot if you're already in the area or need a vegan friendly option, but not necessarily one i'd rush back to. read more

We recently visited ZUBU at their Metrotown location to satisfy our ramen cravings while shopping at the mall. This spot is conveniently located outside the mall, right across from Walmart and next to the parking area, making it super accessible. We are regular members of ZUBU and are familiar with their Happy Hour menu, which usually offers excellent variety and value. The food and service at this location were consistent with the standards we've experienced at other ZUBU spots. However, we were slightly disappointed with the ramen noodles -- they were soft and overcooked. This was unexpected since ZUBU typically delivers on quality. We also noticed a steady stream of takeout orders, which may have impacted the kitchen's focus. On a brighter note, we redeemed our ZUBU rewards points for their 5-piece Crispy Chicken and Pan-Fried Pork Gyoza, both of which were delicious! If you're a fan of ZUBU, downloading their app is a must -- it's an easy way to earn rewards and enjoy perks during every visit. Overall, ZUBU Metrotown is a decent option for a casual bite during a shopping trip, but we hope they can improve consistency, especially with their ramen. Food: 3/5 Can Try! Service: 4/5 Kids: 4/5 Yay! The kid's menu has various kinds of food. Price: $20-$30 each person (Happy Hour) Presentation: 2/5 Parking: 4/5 Free parking available in the mall parking lot, but it is not easy during busy time or shopping season. Tips: * can get a free hand roll when signing up for their ZUBU app. * serve Happy Hour Sunday-Thursday from 2-5 PM and 9 PM-close. * can join the ZUBU app to rack up points and make your visits even more rewarding. * have an outdoor patio in warmer weather. Would I Return: Yes read more

We were looking for a Ramen place while shopping at Metrotown mall. The location was actually not within the mall but outside the mall across from Walmart. We ordered Brussels sprouts tempura for appetizer. It has a nice smell of the truffle oil but the tempura texture was not crispy and the Brussels spouts was flavorless. Since we have never been here, decided to try the ramen flight. It was really nice to try the 3 different ramen. We chose the 'thick' noodle. I liked all 3 but I think with the flight option, you are missing the egg, and extra seaweed/mushroom sides. We also signed up as their 'member', which gave us a free Temaki. The Spicy tuna was good, the blue crab was unfortunately a little dry. Would try the salmon Jalopenos next time. Service was decent but since you don't have an assigned waiter/waitress, no one knows what the last waiter offered. read more

Honestly, I like this place. The ramen was decent, they had a summer deal where you could get basically 2 basic ramens for a good price and they have some sushi items available. I got their zubu zubu ramen which was a good amount of food. I was pretty happy with the size and the chili oil was a nice touch to the ramen. I also had a temaki salmonella avocado hand roll as a starter. The salmon looked oddly fake in appearance, but it was salmon. Didn't really like how high the table and stools were. It was like a bar seat and just wasn't too comfortable since there's no backing on the stool. It was busy too, so we couldn't really ask for a regular table. I definitely do like the food though and I would go back for sure for the ramen. read more

Nothing better to have ramen on a cold rainy day to warm you up. Busy location by Metrotown mall. Ample of mall free parking available. Little wait time of 10 mins. Service was readily available and quick to assist when needed. Had the following - * Ebi Mayo * Pan fried Gyoza * Nothing but Zuni * Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen * Creamy Chicken Ramen * Kid's Ramen Seating available are table and bar stool type. When it is a packed, place can be loud and challenging to hear others talking for atmosphere Recommended for ramen to go that is near the mall instead of having usual food court selection. read more

Considering how cold Vancouver has been the past week, I was really craving some good ramen and decided to try Zubu. I did not dine in there but placed an order for delivery. It was also my first time getting ramen delivered so I was a bit skeptical but Zubu did a very good job of making sure the broth was nice and hot when it reached my doorstep. I got their spicy vegan ramen with extra bamboo shoot and it was the best decision I made!! The Spicy Vegan Ramen came with kale noodles, tofu, spicy bamboo shoots, kaiware, onion, corn, shredded Japanese leek, crispy garlic, black garlic oil, chilli oil, and sesame seeds. I also added extra fresh garlic to this which made it even better. The broth was the right amount of spicy, but a bit creamy as well! My favourite part about the ramen were the spicy bamboo shoots, I had never tried them in ramen before but my friend had really recommended them so I did and it was sooo flavourful!! Truly the best part about this ramen. Next time I would go in-person to check out their dine-in space :) read more

Went during happy hour, which made my Spicy Pork / Tonkotsu Ramen a reasonable price. Otherwise, for price for potion, I'd go to Tokyo Kokoro Mazesoba instead. I got 3-chili heat spiciness and I do not recommend it. After a while, the heat and bitterness simply overpowers the flavour of the broth, so I recommend you choose less heat to savor the rich broth. What lowered the score was service. My friend got the wrong order (non-spicy Tonkotsu instead of the Spicy he ordered, but at least they got the noodles right). And my friend also ordered 8pc Chicken which he asked to put on his bill, but it ended up being split. After two errors the lowest preset tip option at 15% really felt unwarranted. Situations like this make the extravagant tipping in Vancouver feel outrageous. read more

Limited time $10 ramen all day (no longer available but give them a follow on Instagram and maybe they'll have more deals)! Free hand roll if you download their app The $10 ramen is to celebrate the grand opening of their new downtown location! Ramen is available for $10 at metrotown Jan 2 - 9 and also at Kerridale and Park Royal from Jan 10 - 16! (You can pick any ramen except for the seasonal ones and the Zubu zubu) You can also pick any hand roll when you download the zubu app! (The welcome bonus when you log in gives you points that you can spend) kuro & aka: I enoyed both broths but particularily liked the kuro broth because of the stronger pork broth flavour. I enjoyed the thick noodes that came with the aka though but Im sure next time I could ask to switch out the noodles! Takoyaki: It was delicious and satisfied my craving something interesting was that they put egg tar tar on top. Cant say that im a big fan of that addition. Only comment I would have is that I wish they put more okonomi sauce on top. Blue Crab hand roll: Is it weird to say that their seaweed was delicious lol? I found the seaweed very fragrant and tasted quite nice. Can't say the crab had much flavour though unfortunately. read more

I went to zubu to check out their dine out menu with my friend. They were offering 4 courses for $30, which is a great deal in my opinion. It comes with a hand roll, appetizer, ramen and dessert. I tried the crab hand roll, chicken kaarage, tonkatsu ramen and the dressert was chestnut cake. We weren't able to get a reservation so we did have to wait about half an hour for a table. The inside of the restaurant has a rustic feel and was dimly lit to give off a warm atmosphere. The host and staff were all lovely. The ramen wasn't to my taste but everything else was delicious. I was stuffed by the end of my meal. I might come back during happy hour for their small bites and drinks ! read more

We were craving something warm yesterday as it was a cold and raining Vancouver day. We pass this place all the time but never gone yet. I got the Tonkotsu Aka, my wife got the tonkotsu Kuro with mixed pork. The Aka one comes in different level of spiciness. I got the mild as I wanted to taste the food, not have my mouth burning. The soup was very flavorful, rich and with a hint of spice, it tasted really good. They give you 2 pieces of pork which I find a little small. Also they only have one size but you can add extra noodles for additional cost. My wife's one, the broth was good, the black garlic oil does give it more of a garlicy taste rather than pork flavor. The ramen don't come with an egg or bamboo shoots like other places. They will ask if you want to add an egg, which we didn't as it was an extra $2.5 for an egg. For the price, we hoped it would come with an egg or bamboo shoots. read more

Went at 9 and waited for about 15 minutes. They had the 10$ deal for ramen, it was greattttt!

Spicy was actually prettty spicy. So if you just want a kick I would recommend medium spicy Great service too :) read more

Went here during Friday night with group of 7 people. We reserved beforehand and asked to be seated at the patio. As far as I know, they are the only ramen place that has patio. I ordered Tonkatsu Shoyu Ramen which is their seasonal special, and also egg on the side. I asked for thick noodle, and fatty pork. Took a while for the ramen to arrive. The broth was ok, a bit thin for my liking. Pork is ok. The raw onion ruined everything, it was too strong, overpowered everything in the bowl. Ordered crispy chicken (karaage), and salad after my meal to cleanse. Cripsy chicken was ok, the inside was not dry, but the batter was a bit sticky (?). They gave no mayo, or lemon so had to ask. End up paying about $33 including tips. Most likely won't come back, there are a lot of better ramen in town. read more

One of the best ramen places in Vancouver. Atmosphere is warm and modern. Long table still has barriers/CoVid precautions in place. We were seated right away at 7:00pm on a Thursday night. Staff were friendly. Loved to see chef has developed New Summer Seasonal Menu. Of course I had to try their Cilantro Lemon Ramen. Wonderfully refreshing albeit hot soup on a burning summer day. The cilantro and lemon made a perfect combination. Would love to have more lemon, just a personal favorite. Soup was light with slight hint of citrus topped with aroma-bursting cilantro. Ooooh lovely! Also loved the calamari - lightly battered, fried just right, dipped in very delicious tzatziki dip or spicy mayo and topped with lots of dill. I see fried broccoli and cauliflower which added some pleasant twist. Never had calamari this good. Tonkatsu Aka and Crispy Chicken were just as good! Signed up for Rewards Program for free and earn rewards points in exchange for free food. Why not? As we exited the resto, we just noticed that Zubu participated in the Bite of Burnaby Food Festival. Would have ordered this if we were made aware by the staff. It's well worth for $30. read more

Every dish is meticulously cooked and made to delight one's palate. I had the pleasure of dining at Zubu. It was a great experience to enjoy a variety of dishes from their menu: * Zubu Ramen was a wonderful experience. Every bite of the Al dente ramen and blend of pork broth was an explosion of flavor. * calamari - it was a good appetizer and filler. Love their version of this popular dish. * gyoza - a good blend of complementary flavors. It's a great dish to start the dining experience at Zubu. read more

I had Zubu in Vancouver when I was visiting last weekend and I loved the ramen/hand roll concept here. We went on a Saturday afternoon and only had to wait about 15 minutes before being seated. The host was prompt and sweet with us. The waiter suggested the spicy tuna hand rolls, which were so yummy! I love how easy and quick hand rolls are, so it was a no brainer to order these. As for the ramen, it was also really good! The tonkatsu broth was so creamy and I opted for the spicy version, which was so good! My cousin got the crispy chicken ramen - UGH! This was so yummy. The chicken was cooked so perfectly. I do recommend eating the chicken first if you aren't a fan of things getting soggy in your ramen. I would probably order the crispy chicken as an appetizer next time. Overall pretty good ramen experience and would come again if I'm visiting! read more

Then our ramen mini came out. My friend mini had a good portion of broth but when I was going to eat mine , I look and goes wheee is my broth? I asked the waitress and she goes it will be 7.95 for more broth. I was like what do u mean? Oh sorry she said, mini comes with half broth so if you want more 7.95. I was like the combo was 14.95 and u want me to pay 7.95 for broth? So this ruin our mood but she did give me broth for free but the point is if u didn't give me broth why would you charge me more.

Recently visited Zubu Metrotown location and tried out their February ramen special which was the Crispy Chicken ramen. The presentation and flavour was great but when I went on to my second piece of crispy chicken I noticed the chicken was raw. I asked the server to confirm which they acknowledge and apologized, but I was surprised they were just going to offer to replace the one piece of chicken I found raw - it should be standard practice to replace the entire dish especially when there is raw food involved and it was pretty early on in my dish...After asking for the dish to be replaced they offered a 20% off discount on the bowl of ramen. Overall, the experience could have been great if it wasn't for this mishap. Luckily no tummy ache after but I would recommend the restaurant to revisit and go through their food and safety handling more thoroughly when cooking with food raw food and the afterservice when food are found with issues as these mishaps could have been avoided. read more

Ordered because of the buy one get one free deals from uber eats and although the prices were okay with the deal, I found the dishes quite overpriced. At over 10 dollars for the ebi mayo, we received a few measly pieces of shrimp that were in a tempura batter that was quite soggy and thick. The ramen itself was better as the broth wasnt too salty and the noodles were very toothsome but again, regular price is 15 dollars and it wasn't a huge bowl! Their $2 egg was done properly but there was no flavour on the outside... Overall, without the deal, I wouldn't return. read more

We came here for a quick meal. The ramen was average. We had the Tonkotsu Aka ramen and the spicy chicken ramen. You have a choice of the spice level ranging from mild to burning hot. The ramen was average and it's not a big portion by any means which costs round $16+. We didn't bother with the extra toppings that range from $1 and up. You can order a ramen combo for an extra $6.75 which I didn't think it was worth while. If you aren't into ramen, there's appetizers, gyoza, edamame, tacos, French fries, & Japanese shishito pepper. They have a good selection for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten free diners. Nice ambience inside and helpful servers. read more

They currently had their grand opening (for their downtown location) special promotion! Until Jan 9, only $10 ramen at some of their current ZUBU locations I recommend making a reservation but they will still seat you otherwise if you don't mind the wait! I signed up for their Zubu app and got a free appy out of it so I tried their spicy salmon temaki hand roll. I choose the Zubu Zubu ramen with lean chasu! There's quite a few pieces of chasu for the Zubu Zubu it's a hefty bowl. The noodles are nice and thick. The only thing I didn't like was how oily the soup was, just wasn't for me.. I couldn't finish the soup. I also got a tonkotsu aka which was better and more my taste because you could choose the spice level and I choose hot which wasn't super spicy, just right. It gave the broth good balance I think. Finished it all, even the soup! It's a good place for dinner. read more

My bowl of soup (Tonkotsu Aka) had 5 spice levels to choose from. I chose level 4 and it was PERFECT. It was one notch away from burning my face off haha delicious in every way.

Went for the $10 ramen promotion, the wait was around 2 hours to get a seat for 4 at dinner time so ended up getting seated at 9pm. Ordered: Tonkotsu Shiro Ramen Tonkotsu Aka Ramen Mazesoba Spicy Chicken Ramen Ramen broth was savoury with a good amount of spice that you can adjust based on preference. I got the extra spicy and it was a lot spicier than expected which I personally like. Each ramen comes with 2 pieces of fatty, lean, or mixed Chashu. The chashu was tasty with decently thick slices. The noodles we're undercooked though, a little too al dente for ramen. All of the noodles we ordered were thick noodles except for the Spicy Chicken. We also got 2 noodle refills of thin noodles for $2.5 each. I prefer the thicker noodles because they seems to grab the broth better. 8/10 overall read more

It's grand opening today and we were so excited for the 50% off deal. Their phone is super busy and so hard to call through just like Air Canada customer service. We decided to head to Metrotown around 11:30. We were only moved up half the line an hr later so we tried calling again. After redialing 6 times, we got through and placed our order! We were told to come back 3 hrs later which was fine. We went back at 3:30 to line up at the pick up line and the order was not ready. There were other people in line that have placed their order around 11 and were still waiting for their order. At around 5 something we finally got our order. When lunch becomes dinner... The staff is the same Jinya. They are very polite and apologetic for the wait. Zubu separated from the Jinya franchise because they want to be more local and source more locally. They really need to get the take out order straight. It is pretty chaotic today with the grand opening. People were lining up an hr in the pick up line just to check on the status of their order Foodwise: The ramen broth is good and I like the chewy texture of the ramen. I would like my chashu to be more tender. The Brussels sprout tempura is really good. The gyoza and fried chicken are ok. They are opening for dine in service on June 10. I would wait for the craze to die down before going back read more

Old weather calls for ramen . A nice big bowl for warm delicious noodles for the belly. I had the Tonkotsu Aka - chashu with thin noodles, nori, crispy garlic and black garlic oil.
