What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Ramenezco offers a unique take on ramen with flavorful broths and creative toppings, including excellent vegan options. Diners praise the cozy ambiance and friendly service, with special mentions for the gyozas and cocktails. However, some find the portions small for the price, and a few reviews noted issues with noodle consistency or overly busy flavor profiles. Despite minor critiques, many find it a gem for a distinctive dining experience.
"The place is cool, quiet and nice atmosphere that has outdoor and indoor space. The staff was really nice, and they offered great recommendations. I tried one vegetarian ramen and it was delicious, would totally recommend it, a lot of flavor and the dish was big enough. Also, the gyozas were amazing!
They have several beer and cocktail options. I tried a ginger beer and it was really good. The food is not cheap at all (the ramen options range from around 7000 to 10000), but overall I enjoyed the experience!"

"I visited Ramenezco with my boyfriend, and he convinced me to try ramen del Bosque and Bīfukorokké. I'm usually not into veggie dishes, but wow... this one really surprised me! The flavors were unique, earthy, and rich, and it felt like a whole new food adventure. The service was friendly(all the staff, even Neko), the outdoor seating was charming, and the bathrooms were super clean (which I always appreciate). I’ve already told my friends to check it out, and a couple have gone too! It’s definitely become one of my favorite spots for a cozy date night. Next on my list: the seafood ramen 🐙🍜 can’t wait to try it!"

"Great ambience!! Waiters are super nice, the cocktails were great, I liked the vegetarian gyozas and the edamames, waiting time can improve on the ramen tho.
Best broth I’ve had in a ramen place in CR, tasted very organic and not as strong and grassy as other broths I’ve tried."
