  • "Service 10/10, everyone are kind, smiley and helpful, we were served by Marta and she was fantastic too."

Cons:

  • "Our experience didn't start great, as when we asked for a table, the girl on the door said they didn't have anything available and by the time people finished eating it would be closed."
  • "I found the ramen ok. The staff are friendly and helpful and could not find a single fault with them."
  • "Had to wait till the came to the dining area to seat new customers down or clean up. Chicken seemed over cooked."
  • "The service I encountered was nothing short of abysmal. Despite the restaurant having only a total of 20 patrons, the waiter seemed to have no interest in attending to my needs."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The food came really quickly and for London prices, the meal was well priced."
  • "This is a fairly standard ramen/japanese cuisine restaurant with generous portions and generally good quality food."
  • "Food is spot on, I'm personally not a big fan of ramen but I still found a lot of tasty food to eat."
  • "The food was yummy, and the decor and theme was great fun."
  • "Food was amazing as always. Recommended!"
  • "Food (Naruto Ramen, Karaage, Veggie Gyoza) was amazing!"
  • "Ramen full of flavor, but if u need any extra they have extra toppings on Your table."
  • "The food was incredible as always."

Cons:

  • "The bubble tea was very tasty, I definitely recommend it. The choji chakra croquettes (chicken) were very tasty and a great starter, however they were spicy so I ended up eating the rest as my girlfriend couldn't handle the spice!"
  • "Great service by Rita and the other staff too!! Really patient and sweet. The place is pretty cool themed. Food wise, I like the different size options so I don't have to struggle with my portion and waste food."
  • "Great place, nice atmosphere. Service-wise, the service was very rushed and minimal, however still paid service charge. Ramen was good, but if I would need to give it a rating I'd say a strong 7.5. Had better."
  • "Had a great time eating lunch at this restaurant. As soon as you enter the restaurant you feel like your in an anime/manga cartoon. It has a Japanese feel, which i loved. There's anime/manga characters painted all over the walls. I am a fan of dragon ball and Pokemon, and i found these characters."

Theming and Atmosphere

Pros:

  • "The theme of the restaurant would appeal to any Naruto fans, but even if you're not the vibrant decor is really nice and above all else the food and service was top notch!"
  • "We chose it to surprise our daughter to celebrate her 11th birthday and she was thrilled! it really feels like being in Japan."
  • "The theming can be summed up as the waiters wearing akatsuki robes, art work on the walls, and the menu items being named after popular characters from the animes."
  • "The atmosphere was crazy! Daniel our server made me feel the most welcome I’ve ever felt in a restaurant."
  • "The atmosphere was amazing. If you love anime it’s great, the servers are dressed in Naruto cloaks, anime theme songs are playing."
  • "A fun shonen inspired restaurant with genuinely good Japanese food. The entire restaurant interior is wrapped in a fun mural of shonen characters and the food is themed just like the themed cafe's in Akihabara."
  • "Loved the theme of the restaurant and how everything down to the menu items relates to anime."
  • "Definitely passed the vibe check! If you’re an anime lover and you’re in London, this restaurant is a MUST go."

Cons:

  • "The atmosphere is fairly pleasant but somewhat sterile, even with all the artwork on the walls."
  • "The bubble tea is good. Ramen not so much. At least it’s still a little bit better than Wagamama. The spicy ramen is not spicy at all even after putting 5spoons of spices."
  • "Main issue was the lighting. Really dark, especially in the evening as no light comes through the ceiling window and the lights are kept low."
  • "The place, the atmosphere is amazing. A must have for every Naruto or anime fan. The food was mouthwatering and delicious."
