“ Very nice soups, I didn't try the sushi but the soup was hearty and delicious. Great menu for lunch, although the restaurant was a bit on the noisier side making it more about the food than the premises ”
“ Standard food. Standard flavours. Pretty good price. Nice people. The food came pretty fast. It was a little hot in there during the summer. ”
“ Pho that we ordered wasn’t the authentic pho we had in mind, which should be with clear soup, but perhaps this is a derivative that the local can accept, but if you are Asian like us visiting this place, you know what I mean. The ramen as well but at least it came with hot soup, compared with another one I had in Amsterdam that was brought to the table with medium temperature. Sushi is ok as per the price we paid so it’s more of a balance of what you pay and what you get. However their toilet was very clean during our visit, a plus not related to restaurant selection. ”
“ We were here last year during vacation. We now visit linköbing every year because of this restaurant. It really reminds us of our time in Japan. ”
“ Not the worst ramen I've had but clearly not the best. I wouldn't recommend it. The price is decent at least... ”
“ After going without proper Asian cuisine for what felt like forever, I finally found this gem tucked away in the neighborhood. As someone of Asian heritage, I'm particularly discerning when it comes to these flavors, and this place truly delivered. It's not authentic, but it's good. I ordered the chashu ramen and a bottle of ramune to wash it down. From the first spoonful, the broth transported me - rich, complex, and honestly to die for. The noodles had that perfect silky texture that only comes from being made with care and proper technique. The atmosphere feels genuinely homely, like being welcomed into someone's kitchen rather than just another restaurant. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, allowing me to savor every moment of my meal. ”
“ Love coming here for lunch and sitting outside to eat, its got a lovely view and inside is nice and clean too. The food is delicious and the staff are very kind and welcoming. I always recommend this place to anyone who wants a nice meal :D ”
“ I came to the restaurant at 1:30 pm and there were full of customers. All their staff are nice, and they are full of smiles :) The Udon was cooked just right, and the texture was great. The miso soup was also nice, and I even drank two bowls of it. If I have a chance to go to Linköping again, I must come again. ”
