They serve excellent okonomiyaki and chashu buns that resemble siopao buns, but the standout dish here is the ramen. You can choose between spicy ramen or traditional ones, but my personal favorite is the charred chashu ramen.

The service is consistently great, and we are regulars here so they already know our order. Additionally, they have implemented all necessary safety protocols, making it a safe place to dine.

The ramen was one of the best we've ever had, and the okonomiyaki was delicious. The chicken karage was also incredibly tender. The restaurant takes their sanitary protocols seriously, which we appreciated. Check out our experience here: https://youtu.be/6pJtHZGE74I.

Dropped by for dinner and ordered Shiromaru ramen special which has tamago and two pork belly slices. Tip: when asked for hardness of noodles, skip the soft and medium, instead go with hard (I picked this) or very hard to prevent soggy noodles at the end of your meal. In my opinion, Ippudo broth is what sets them apart from other ramen houses, it's so flavorful, creamy and not oily. As always I enjoyed my order till the last drop. My biggest complaint in this branch is their staff, you have to wait till your face is 100% aligned with their face for them to see you. It's as if they are wearing blinders similar to race horses. Another complaint (which maybe the fault of the mall) is lack of aircon or insufficient aircon to cool the entire restaurant. I hope they fix this ASAP.
