It is a ramen restaurant that I went to because it has a good reputation as the best ramen restaurant in Melbourne. As shown in the picture attached, it is really customized, such as cooked noodles and salty taste. It was so very delicious. It was a ramen restaurant where you can really feel the artisan spirit. Oh, please take into account the fact that the service is not good because it is too busy to wait for about 20 minutes in the cold outside.

I was excited to find this place as it reminded me of Ichiran ramen in Japan, with the queue outside and the tick-box menu. I had the God Fire level 1 with the combo. Meh, nothing special. Disappointed and overpriced for what it is! $14 for the god fire + $8 for the combo = over $20 for a bowl of average noodles.

Came here for lunch. Was trying to get into a popular Ramen restaurant directly opposite but the queue was ridiculous, so came here instead. I wasn't disappointed with Musashi at all hence the 5 stars! The service was excellent and quick. The Ramen delicious, hearty and filling. Good choice of karaage Chicken or normal chicken an excellent idea with your Ramen. Menu caters for all and at an reasonable price of circa $13 for a Ramen. Nice accompaniments on the table and water etc. Comfortable seating. Will be coming back for sure

The first bite of the M9 Wagyu Beef made me ecstatic and, at the same time, parallel thought, wish I could afford this delicious beef to have every day. It was my first time to Musashi Ramen along with my best friend (his second time here). At first, the only reason I wanted to go in here was the fact that I can make an Instagram story of how they cook the beef using the torch. While that part was immensely satisfying to watch, the first bite of the meat made the difference. The meat was soft, had a texture that melts inside your mouth, and delicious. I was skeptical about how well the beef is cooked, but, to my surprise, it was cooked to perfection. <br/ <br/ The staff was quite friendly and very corporative while I was making videos and clicking pictures. The ambiance is very pleasing and a right place to dine. The food we have ordered is the limited time special, and the wagyu beef is the highlight. The soy-based soup was decent, not the best. I loved the healthy egg-based noodles they have served. As I peek into the nearby tables, me being cheeky, I found a lot of dishes that are very much appetizing. I am sure they have lot of other dishes to try and I will definitely give it a try. I am more than happy to recommend this place to anyone. Great job, guys.
