Maruhachi Ra-men Metrotown - Burnaby

I don’t recommend the new ‘Veggie Tantan Ramen’ cuz I can only taste the salt (plain flavor) . Seaweed is small portion with $6 price.The chashu tamago ramen will be a safer choice. ? (Note: the fried garlic is not free anymore. You need to order separately for $0.9)

Waitress spoke very fast with an accent. I had to get her to repeat multiple times. The food was tasty and reasonably priced.Wed lunch had no lineup, but I have seen huge lines at other

Pretty good ramen. Not much meat, but the broth was creamy and delicious. Spicy option is not too spicy. What impressed me most was 12% option for a tip. I don't think it's fair keeping 18% as a bottom tip percentage (as do most places nowdays).

The food was absolutely delicious and tasted very authentic, which is always a plus in my book. And the prices were more than reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food. The cozy and welcoming atmosphere of the restaurant made for a great dining experience, and the staff were some of the friendliest and most accommodating.One thing that really impressed me was that the default tip was 12%, which speaks volumes about the integrity of the restaurant. They don't push customers to pay ridiculous high tips, which is a refreshing change from many other places I've been to. I definitely plan on coming back more than once! (actually, I've already visited this place more than five times)That being said, it's important to note that during peak hours (such as holidays and dinner times), the wait time can range from 15 45 minutes. But despite this, they still accept larger parties and the washroom is conveniently located and well maintained.The only downside that I noticed is that the food can be a bit salty for some, ask for some water to drink. However, this is a minor issue and shouldn't deter anyone from trying out this amazing restaurant.Additionally, there is free parking available at the rear, although it can be hard to find a spot during busy times. But don't let that discourage you from checking this place out it's definitely worth it!All in all, I would highly recommend this ramen joint to anyone looking for a tasty and affordable meal.

It is fun reading many reviews. Some claims that the broth has no taste. Oh well, it is very simple type of chicken broth, these people look for salty Shio or Shoyu ramen, they just come to the wrong place. The world of Ramen is huge, there are many types/style of ramen, open your heart please.Ramen is a everyday food, not a fine dining Michelin-star type of cuisine.If diner really know how the Chasu is prepared, it shouldn’t surprise them if it is cold. Apparently, they don’t know. They might prefer the shop microwave the chasu abit before serving i supposed? If u want a warmer chasu, just soak it into the soup and u will get warm chasu.To me, the broth is right at its balance, Chasu is properly made. Noodle is cooked a little bit too soft to me though.Tamago (egg) is well prepared as well.So overall it is not bad at all. It is not GREAT, but not bad at all.
