Hot and tasty for a rainy night - Edit
Everything from their personalised intro about the food, the friendly host and the succinct menu!
Read moreI had their AMAZE men (which comes with cauliflower wings!) and their Yuzu tea (so sweet and warm, with bits of the citrus fruit!)
Pros: 1. The special introduction , 2. Warm and spicy freshly prepped ramen, 3. Cauliflower wings (of course! )

It's sister restaurant is Top 10 for a reason - Edit
The signature ramen is really good. Not as brilliant as the one at Men Impossible because it's just a little simpler but you still get the creamy noodles. And this restaurant has the advantage of you can order some of the sides you like most because the place uses a normal pick and choose menu.
Read moreRamen was 17 euros I think.
There's seating upstairs too.
Pros: Yummy ramen, Can order sides

Good but confusing options - Edit
Very tasty food.
Read moreI saw a sign in the window saying the noodles are plant based but then the menu states shrimp too, so the messaging about it being vegan is a bit off. I did ask and they said it's vegan, but if I hadn't seen it listed here first, I wouldn't have thought so.
I has the sauce ramen (didn't read the menu properly and regretted it soon after ordering but it was too late to change my mind). It was tasty but too rich, I couldn't finish it. But better to have too much flavour than not enough.
Pros: So much flavour
Cons: Unclear vegan messaging, Didn't get the menu explained before I ordered

Fantastic. - Edit
We had the takoyaki, the amaze-men and the white ramen.
Read moreThey were all delicious, and the portions were decent.
The staff was friendly and the service was rather quick (you need to order and pay through your phone).
Note that the stairs for going to the toilet (upper floor) are rather steep.
Pros: yummy, good value, friendly staff

Surprise! Lovely ramen - Edit
Decor is okay but the ramen is fabulous. Spicy miso ramen is full of flavors and warms you up. All vegan restaurant that really hits the spot. Also had the tempura cauliflower and it was wonderful. You will not be disappointed.

So good - Edit
After going to Kitchen Impossible the day before and loving the food so much, I decided to try this one. I took the spicy original one, and I loved it. It was the perfect amount of spicy in my opinion. Although I have to say I liked the Kitchen Impossible original ramen more than this one. Still super good! Staff is very friendly too:)

Ramen impossible is mandatory if youre vegan and visiting Amsterdam - Edit
Saucy and soupy ramen are both insanely delicious. Something totally different, like a taste explosion in your mouth. 11/10 would recommend. Easily top 3 restaurants I’ve eaten at since switching to plant based diet in 2012.

Delicious ramen! - Edit
We tried the miso ramen with katsu and the spicy something ramen (I forget the name) and they were both super good! We also tried the vegan shrimp and they were ok, maybe wouldn’t order again. The service was also great and they have a wonderful chatty Japanese chef!

Bland noodles, but good takoyaki - Edit
I'm not sure why everyone is so positive about this place. The ramen soups we got were pretty bland apart from the spiciness. There were also hardly any vegetables in it.
Read moreOn the other hand, the takoyaki balls were amazing. The combination of takoyaki sauce with mayonnaise is just perfect.
The personnel is really nice and helpful though, and the food gets prepared very quickly.
Pros: Quick, The takoyaki balls (my god that sauce is good), Nice personnel
Cons: Lack of vegetables, Lack of taste overall, Loud tourists

Very good ramen, amazingly friendly staff. You have to order through a QR code, but the staff came to explain their various dishes and were very welcoming. They have 3 different ramen and some sides. I really liked this place!

Impossible Ramen - Edit
There is not much I can add to the previous reviews. The ramen is amazing, if you are prepared that it is a little different to the usual (with a creamy sauce instead of soup).
