Ramen Restaurants near West Vancouver, BC

“Good service and good food“

“I stopped by this cozy spot on Marine Drive one afternoon and the experience surprised me in the best way. At first it looked like a small ramen restaurant from the street, but once I sat down I noticed how warm and welcoming the place felt. I tried a bowl of miso ramen and the broth was deep and full of flavor that warmed me up right away. I also ordered a plate of tonkatsu and it came out crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside which made every bite satisfying. The people working there were helpful and explained the menu without rushing me, which made ordering easy and stress free. Around me I saw others enjoying their meals too, and it felt like a spot where locals come back again and again. I left full, happy, and thinking about my next visit. This is a place that takes classic Japanese comfort food and serves it in a way that feels both delicious and comforting for anyone who loves good food.“

“Authentic Japanese ramen store. Delicious ramen.

We visited this ramen store in the late afternoon while there were less crowd. The store is not big but well designed so it feels spacious. The staff offered us baskets to put our bags and coats in. That's very convenient.

The ramen was delicious. The broth was thick, well flavored and not too salty. The noodle's texture was great not soggy. The pork was tender and juicy. This is the right kind of hot comfort food you want to order at a chilly winter afternoon.

By the time we left, the place began to get populated. When we passed the store the next day during lunch hour, there was a line waiting outside the door. We were luck to get in without waiting. This store will be in our pocket list for sure.“

“We were visiting from Victoria and looked for Raman restaurants by our hotel. Absolutely delicious and only remembered to take a picture at the end (which was empty bowls!). I got the Spicy Miso (highly recommend, level 1 was perfect for someone who enjoys the flavor but not too spicy, would even try level 2) and Shoyu for my daughter which she loved. Tried a piece of Gyoza from a friend and would definitely order next time as it was really good.“

“This is some really good ramen. I wanted to give it 4 stars for the lack of variety and toppings but it was just so good you really do not need anything else. Spicy level wasn’t spicy, i got it extra hot and spicy but I’d give it a 6.5-7/10 spice level.“

“Food is really tasty, this place is a hidden gem for sure. Only issue is the portion size is a bit small, but the char siu slices are quite large, and I like that the broth doesn’t leave you thirsty afterwards. The noodles are super thin if you’re into that type.“

“The menus looks great. And the tastes are perfect not salty.And friendly staffs!“

“Food was amazing. Service was amazing. Pandemic precautions in place(hand sanitizers, table partitions, menu on phone etc). 10/10“

“Not a place to have a date. Eat and go.
Looks like el Bucco in Rome.
Excellent food. You maybe need to wait, you need to register in the waiting list, I didn't know so I waited the double of time.
Group of four, ask for the table, we needed to eat at the bar, not very confortable to have a conversation.“

“Came for the first time on St. Patrick’s Day. I ordered ramen and requested to remove veggies. I tried Yokohama Iekei Ramen & Karaage on my first time here. I ended up eating karaage without dipping the tartar sauce because it was better without any sauce.“

“An absolute gem! Truly delicious food and great service, and it’s relatively inexpensive. What’s not to like? The regular portion is just okay, I’d honestly prefer it a bit larger if they had it. The only downside is limited seating, though the smaller setup probably helps keep the service excellent. Highly recommended!“

“super friendly staff and awesome manager who didn't blink an eye and replaced my mom and aunts order to accommodate their health conditions. bomb food and and super fast serve time. will be back again Special shout out to Damont for being an awesome manager!“

“Good restaurant“

“Highly under rated 10/10.“

“Our server’s name was Koki and he was wonderful! He was very attentive and helpful with guiding us through the menu and recommending his favourite dishes and drinks. I got the premium pork ramen and he nailed it with the spice level recommendation. Highly recommend this establishment for ramen lovers!“

“Came in on Thursday evening when the place was pretty busy, and our server was handling everything on her own. Even though she was super busy, she took great care of us and explained everything clearly. The ramen was delicious and the portions were solid. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great Service with the Team on the shift today .Hot Tea and Quality Food and very great service Shuto,kenny,saku,Jaden“

“Delicious!!! Everything is tasty 😋 😆😁✅❤️

As always 😁 We are very happy with our meal. Ordered extra Chasu, (don’t mind the photo I ate a slice 😂) seaweed and poached egg 😜 we both ordered the creamy Mazeman 👍✅❤️

This is my favourite place for Ramen and for Mazeman ❤️👌 love the food, the atmosphere, the service, the servers ✅👍

I’m very happy with my meal again. 👌 Always reliable, fresh, tasty, I love sipping the hot broth as I eat my noodles.

If you give them your phone number for a free membership, you get a refreshing vanilla ice cream cone at the end.

And also when you order, you can upgrade to extra noodles.

Then as time goes on, there are other added benefits.

Like extra meat 🥩 😁 extra poached egg, etc.

I believe this is for the mazeman noodles 😁👍

Thank you to the chef’s, kitchen staff and servers 👍✅

Great service as usual. Tasty 👍
Yum! 😋 I have enjoyed many meals here. Delicious.

Easy yes 👍

I will keep repeating ✅

I love the ice cream at the end too ❤️😁

I will most definitely be bringing family and friends here.

Every meal has been very satisfying, made me happy.

I enjoy the chill atmosphere, the servers are very nice, friendly, welcoming and on point.

The place is clean, I like the open layout, love that I can see straight into the kitchen through the glass. ✅

Everything on the menu is reasonably priced. There is also a little happy hour menu.

Worth repeating✅😁👍“

“The food and service is very good“

“I've had their 5 ramen bowls many times over. They're well made, tasty, easy to prepare and decently priced. Picking up at the Franklin Street location is a breeze, too.“

“Yummy foods and the staff is very nice!“

“The best ramen🍜 store we have visited so far in downtown Vancouver.“

“So good and so friendly. We came here after another restaurant gave us horrible service and thank goodness we did. The food was amazing all my kids ate everything (ages 4, 9, 10, and 16) they loved it. The rich broth is flavorful and the pork belly hit the spot. They were full but still managed to accommodate all 6 of us.“

“Good place for eating. Good price and service.“

“This made it onto my list of go-to ramen places in Vancouver! I ordered the kara miso chashu ramen. The proportions of broth, noodles, and chashu were just right, with none over-representing the others. The soup was mildly spicy, as it’s supposed to be, rich, and absolutely delicious. The portion size was perfect for a moderately hungry person, paired with a 16 oz Sapporo. I would definitely recommend it and would happily go here again on a cold evening!“

“I will definitely get back here for more
The Sake Combo with Spicy Garlic Broth is perfect match.
The ramen has a rich broth and spicy as i ordered the Spicy Garlic Pork Ramen. Paris with the combo with hot sake is top notch.
The staffs are friendly, with their cultural greetings.
Their focus is the ramen menus only, and that is what i like so they concentrate more focus on the ramen taste.
Only just they have a quite limited space, but that is fine for me.“

“We love love love Ramen Danbo - it’s arguably the best ramen chain across Vancouver and consistently delivers delicious high quality ramen at reasonable prices and portion sizes. We’ve eaten at all their locations around Vancouver and love each of them. The dining space is quite small and cramped so huge kudos to the staff for doing an excellent job keeping lines moving and ensuring that food comes out efficiently and quickly without compromising on quality. The vegan curry ramen is extremely flavourful and filling, and the Kerrisdale dine-special, the egg fried rice, is to die for! It’s so flavourful, smokey, and has tons of wok hay! Highly recommend the egg fried rice. We are regulars here and will continue to be so! 💕✨“

“The food is awesome, ramen is off the chart spicy and good. Great vibe. Busy!!“

“I find that the food here is very consistent between branches. Nice addition to the ever growing UBC community. I always get the mentaiko because I find that the regular mazesoba is so tasteless even with the vinegar. I like that you can choose a bigger portion of noodles but I feel like the portion in my bowl is as much as my friend who had the regular portion. Delicious as usual and always wish they put more mentaiko as the mentaiko to noodle amount is not enough!“

“Japanese food: One should give it a try in order to know how exotic and healthy it is.“

“I love Zubu Ramen!! Is sooooo good!“

“Visiting from out of town and popped into this location for a taste of thier vegetarian ramen. Service was friendly and prompt during the 4:00 hour and seating was ample despite busy turn over. Many of the stools were combination storage for your coat, backpack, or handbag, very nice feature and use of space.No cash, card only option and phone scan menu was no-fuss easy order and payment. Portion size was good and the curry flavor for the vegetarian ramen was tasty, warm, and filling. Would visit again.“

“I dine here at least 3 times a week as I’m close to here everyday. Friendly, super fast service and always there to answer questions about food/allergens. One of the best poke/ramen places in downtown Vancouver“

“I think this is an excellent value proposition for Ramen in this neighborhood. The prices are excellent, cheaper than a modern day pho, and their tea and complementary post Ramen ice cream are an added bonus. This is a cosy local spot! No complaints. I would say the broth is a little bit lighter, not as heavy/Full bodied as other Ramen places which can be good or bad depending on which side you’re on.“

“I woke up this morning craving lettuce wraps. I had no idea about this Japanese restaurant. I ran some errands and then found this place. I can honestly say that the lettuce wrap crunch munch was SO delicious. I’ll be back. Wonderful kind staff to. Thank you.“

“Probably the best Dan Dan Noodles I’ve eaten in Vancouver! The beef roll was also excellent, crispy and full of flavour. Only reason this isn’t a 5-Star review is due to the strange charges. 5 cents for take-out containers, 5 cents to use a Mastercard? Not the craziest thing, just odd. Seems unnecessary. Otherwise, I will happily be going back to try everything else their menu offers.“

“I ordered the aburi cheese curry and added pork for take out. It was a good size portion, but the aburi cheese made it too salty. The cheese just tasted like regular cheese, I was unable to taste the char on the cheese. I would have liked a tiny bit more sauce. This place is very well priced.“

“It took me many years to give this place a try. Call it beef noodle fatigue, so many places were opening up around the same time. But this one out lived them all.

Beef noodles were great. Fresh made noodles were very chewy. Soup was just right. Same goes for the wontons.

Service was good. People were sweet.

Atmosphere. Not the most comfy seating. They opted for bench seats for the vibes. But the decor was nice. The lighting was bright warm and too in your face.“

“Their ramen is delicious! Usually we don’t eat ramen because their soup base is always very salty. But we gave it a try and loved the soup which is perfect and the ramen is crunchy. The charsiu is also cooked well. I love their Hokkaido ice cream the best. Wednesday is free for members. That makes it even worth it to eat at this ramen restaurant.“
