I was really disappointed in the service and food. Order from a kiosk, grab it from the counter; honestly, it felt like fast food places have better service. The 14.8% living wage top-up was gross....why do we top up *your* employees? I'm okay if a living wage is built into the prices, which are already high, but to then charge extra?
My chicken was even cold, and the meal was bland. Overall I'm glad I tried it... because now I know I'm not missing anything.
It's semi cozy, so cozy you can hear the other customers talking badly, loudly, about their friends. Not the resturants fault, but not fun to have to hear someone read out their friends manic texts while the three are laughing at her.

Loved this place, the noodles and soup are incredible and the people are even better.
One of the guys working here, Sun, was extremely kind and friendly. Had a great time listening to his story. Definitely will have to come back again soon

Nikkei Ramen is by far my favourite restaurant in the Comox Valley. As someone who has worked previously in the food industry and who has tried making homemade ramen and toppings from scratch, this is the real deal. Delicious soup served by kind staff, this is the place to go to.
I recommend the yasai ramen for those wanting a variety of tasty toppings with a broth that is deep, refreshing but not too heavy.

Small and cozy place. You order by yourself on the machine, so it’s feel like a fast food place. They have a good selection of broth flavours, rich and tasty. However, I’m not a big fan of their meat, taste like a deli meat 🤷♀️
