(3.5) Very convenient for individuals with a vegan diet. You can choose to dine in the “meat” area or the “vegan” area of the shop (it’s split into two stores adjacent to another). It’s not traditional ramen and it tasted okay—nothing that really stood out to me as a person who has had real, authentic ramen numerous times. The atmosphere, though designed well, is small and stuffy. Thankfully there are fans and outdoor seating available.

Summary: disappointing bland taste and nearly overcooked ramen noodles; 3.5 stars (went for the 3 to contrast many excessively positive reviews)

Dishes (- negative / = ok / + positive):
- Tantanmen: recommended by waiter, but disappointing bland taste, nearly overcooked ramen noodles; few toppings

Service:
+ quick and easy
- employees are smoking across the street while you are eating outside, not a pleasant view

Price:
+ fair price for value; €11 for lunch menu

Atmosphere:
+ ramen style noodle bar look matching the cuisine
+ couple of small seats outside

I have been lived in Japan for 6 years. You will be disappointed If you are expecting the authentic Japanese Ramen and service.
The restaurant is all managed by Vietnamese. The servers were impolite and ignorant. The inner renovation is in Japanese style but the Ramen is adaptive. I have never seen the cabbage, raw spinach and red ginger in Ramen. The tonkotsu soup tastes fine but obviously made from industrial powders instead of bones-boilded.

A beautiful ramen shop, with a lovely feel, and great food!

The tantanmen and tonkotsu were both delicious, and the gyoza were absolutely perfect - would heartily recommend!

(The shop is quite small, and can get very busy, so consider if you don't like small, noisy places.)
Starters were good, ramen was watered down and the tiny bowl of sake you see in the photo below was 5 euros! Feels like a place that tries to maximize profit, you get a free ice cream when you rate them so take the 5 star reviews with a pinch of salt

We ordered as our lunch today and it was delicious very fresh! And well prepared and packed!
The place was cozy and nice.
The Ramen was delicious, we had Tantan men and Kara miso. Tantan was my favourite but if you don’t like spicy, Kara miso is also worth trying.
Staff were welcoming and nice. In general, I recommend it.

I would like to say, that this place is good. The vegan Ramen - good and tasty. I was just a bit uncomfortable about the small space inside the café. The soup here costs around 14 euros. A nice place, but personally for me only for one visit.

Grilled pork belly is out of this world, have to order if you go. Ramen is lovely. Add the spicy vinegar to anything you have!

We visited based on Google review. And the place was just as it was reviewed on Google map. Ramens were very good. I would come again to try other Ramens.
The place was very tight, and I’m sure the couple next to our table, who were mere 40 cm away from me, could hear everything we were talking about. This time we were the loud ones (haha!). If you enjoy the typical Jaoanese cozy atmosphere, this place offers that as well as good ramens.

The bowl of ramen noodles was very tasty. The only downside is this restaurant does not take cards other than german! Would be nice if they would improve this for foreign customers.

Unbelievable good Ramen. We went here for the first time and weren’t disappointed. The location is very authentic. We had Gyoza as an appetizer. Delicious! I had the Beef Ramen. Everything was just perfect. It was a big bowl. Almost couldn’t finish. Will come again!
We had thought that this restaurant had so many reviews because of the quality of the food, however after being seated we realized that they give you a free scoop of ice cream in exchange for a review on Google. The food itself was pretty good, atmosphere was nice, and customer service was okay. Overall, the restraunt itself wasn't anything super extraordinary. Quite bummed that they are simply gaming the Google review system.

The best ramen in Berlin!! They have a quite simple menu with big flavour. The portions are huge. It's a small restaurant with a very traditional atmosphere. The service is friendly.
Had the Ramen and pork dumplings.
The food was great and service as well.
I would def recommend it! Place was packed, and we were lucky to get a table, but next time, I would not mind to wait a little outside.
The girl serving us was beautiful and her english was quite good 🙏

The food is great, very tasty and different. Service was fast and polite and the local is very comfy. I forgot a bag there and had to come back the next day; it was there. Much appreciated.

Love the Tonkotsu Ramen hereee 🥰🥰🥰 also the Tantan Men have a very nice spicy taste
Amazing place to eat Ramen. This was the first time we tried Ramen and it was absolutely delicious. The portion is huge (not everyone can eat the whole thing), you can substitute some add-ons (e.g. choose ginger instead of onions). You can also add some add-ons - there is a large selection of them in the menu. Wakame salad was also remarkably tasty. Moreover, ramen is reasonably priced, for such a huge portion it’s an absolute bargain. But do not forget to bring some cash, unfortunately, they do not accept card. So, I can recommend visiting this place to anyone who enjoys Asian cuisine and wants to try something new.

Das Takumi Nine in Berlin ist nicht identisch mit dem bekannten Takumi aus Düsseldorf, auch wenn es natürlich zur gleichen Kette gehört und ähnliche Zutaten verwendet werden. Erst aber mal vorweg: Es ist mindestens genau so gut. Der kleine Laden ist gemütlich und gepflegt, das Personal war absolut freundlich. Da es schon später am Abend war gab es keine Schlange und auf das Essen mussten wir auch nicht lange warten.

Die Gerichte unterscheiden sich im Takumi Nine in feinen Details zum Original: Die Ramen werden hier in einer Hühnerbrühe serviert und statt Schweinefleisch gibt es Hühnerfleisch. Die Brühe aus Soya (Shoyu Ramen) selbst ist dunkler, kräftiger, ein wenig salziger (angenehm salzig). Die Karaage haben hingegen identisch zu den bekannten Karaage aus Düsseldorf geschmeckt, heiß und lecker, nicht fettig. Preislich habe ich das Takumi Nine ein wenig teurer in Erinnerung als andere Filialen aus der Kette, mir fehlt hier aber gerade eine Referenz und ich habe mir keine Notizen dazu gemacht.

Meiner Begleitung und mir hat es jedenfalls sehr gut geschmeckt. Takumi scheint einfach überall zu funktionieren.

Wir müssten draußen bisschen warten, weil alle Plätze besetzt waren und die Bude sehr klein ist. Wenn man zu zweit oder zu dritt ist, muss man am Tisch mit anderen Personen nebeneinander sitzen, so bergenz ist Platz.
Sehr kleine Auswahl von Ramen und japanischen Vorspeisen aber man kann trotzdem was wählen. Sehr sehr nette Kellnerin, die junge Japanerin.
Preislich bisschen teurer als die andere Ramen Buden aber sehr lecker!!!
Amazing restaurant! The Miso Ramen would be my personal recomendation, but the Tan Tan is also pretty good.

The Portions are generous, the service was extremely fast and the staff was super Kind. 10/10

Small but absolutely delicious. We loved the freshness of the ingredients and the authenticity of the taste. As the place is quite small, it is better to reserve a table in advance. We will definitely come back.

Dear Takumi NINE Team

I want to express my sincere admiration for the exceptional experience I had at your restaurant. From start to finish, every aspect of my visit was outstanding.

The ambiance perfectly blended traditional and modern Japanese aesthetics, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The commitment to authenticity was evident not only in the decor but especially in the incredible taste of your dishes.

Special kudos to your staff. They were not only knowledgeable and attentive but also incredibly friendly. Their enthusiasm for Japanese cuisine was infectious and significantly contributed to my positive experience.

The focus on quality ingredients and expert preparation was evident in every bite, making each dish a culinary delight. Your diverse menu showcased the breadth of Japanese cuisine at its finest.

I appreciate the excellence within the framework of your culinary offerings. My visit exceeded expectations, and I look forward to returning soon to indulge in these delicious delights.

The energy was really good & i‘ll definitely come back.

Best regards,
Gin ;)

We really liked our Ramens and nice drinks and starters. Recommend!
The restaurant boasts an attractive exterior that entices people to step inside. Once inside, the ambiance slightly diminishes, but remains quite pleasant. Regarding service, I felt comfortable with the attentive service from waitress Quynh, who was polite and gentle. About food, I tried the Tantan ramen and Tofu salad along with Oolong tea. The Tantan ramen, initially mildly spicy, gradually revealed its spiciness towards the end of the bowl. The toppings were praiseworthy, and warming the ramen a bit more would enhance its taste. The Tofu salad was soft, sweet, and slightly refreshing—a delightful choice, especially when paired with Oolong tea to alleviate post-meal heaviness. I rated the service four stars due to the mixed experience with another server, whose behavior, while polite, lacked a certain finesse that left me initially uncomfortable.
Big portions, nice service, tasty ramen. Bit crowdly and cash only, worth remembering. Overall we really enjoyed it 🙂

It is a tiny restaurant, but has amazing flavor. We enjoyed the ramen very much. We will surely come back. It is important to reserve a place in advance as it is really little space. Dishes are big at a good price.

Die Brühe war gut. Kimchi in der Suppe fand ich nicht unbedingt gut, weil es noch nicht lang genug eingelegt wurde. Aber insgesamt wars trotzdem lecker. Das Gemüse-Tempura soll man auch mal probieren.

The flavors were authentic and rich, definitely some of the best I've had in the city. The price point is also reasonable, adding to the value of the meal. The staff, who, while efficient, could have been more welcoming and friendly. The place itself is quite small, which gives it a cozy feel, but it can feel a bit overwhelming.
Friendly service and nicely decorated space. However the food didn't live up to its promise by having rather plain flavour (had the minced meat Ramen). Also had sake, which was tasty but too expensive.
Fantastic ramen 🍜 Recommend to try.

Da wir von außen immer sahen, dass viele Leute hier essen gehen, wollten wir auch mal dem Ramen eine Chance geben. Ich muss leider sagen, dass ich enttäuscht war vom Besuch. Wir hatten ein Ramen mit Chicken, extra groß. Das einzige was extra war, waren die Nudeln. Davon hatten wir nämlich reichlich :D
Bei der Bestellung musste ich nach vorne gehen, da alle Angestellten am Handy waren und das die ganze Zeit! Service also null. Das Essen kam schnell, hat uns aber nicht vom Hocker gehauen. Wir haben selber viel nachwürzen müssen, erst dann hat es uns einigermaßen geschmeckt. Es ist nicht schlecht, aber ich habe schon öfters Ramen gegessen und es gibt im Umkreis deutlich bessere Läden. Preislich liegt es in der normalen Kategorie. Man kann es auf jeden Fall mal machen, ich werde auf jeden Fall nicht mehr wieder kommen
Loved every dish I ordered here. The sushi, ramen and lunch menus taste amazing and the prices are very fair. I will definitely come back!

As chain ramen restaurant, I think here is much higher than average of what you can get in Germany (excluding Düsseldorf). Soup is delicious and balance, noodles are cooked to middle range, not too hard not too soft.
A bit crowded, but for a good bowl of 30 minute ramen this is ok.
House blend matcha Limonade is quite good.
Gyoza is….soso. Can be ignored…
Delicious Japanese food, cozy atmosphere, super friendly service. Found this place randomly because my two year old daughter said she wants to go there as we passed it by, and she knows what’s good. They had child seats and kid menus and some comic books to keep her busy. Meanwhile me and her grandmother enjoyed yummy food as so did she, and even the price was nice. Would love to come here again!

Super Ramen Restaurant. Klein aber fein und sehr sehr lecker. Preis ist etwas höher als üblich aber dafür auch große Portionen.
Die Gyoza sind ein Traum!
Auch auf extra Wünsche (Allergie, Unverträglichkeiten) wird sehr gut eingegangen.
Love the place, love the food, reminded me a lot of my visit to Japan.
This is now one of my favorite places.
Simple and delicious.
Restaurant accepts card payments.
Its at a great location in Prenzlauer Berg and has enough seating capacity inside and outside. Lovely to sit outside and enjoy the food. They have many options of Ramen and of course Sushi. The noodles have a nice texture to it and the soup is yummy. You can order fish, chicken and pork options. The sushi options are lot and you could order a variety of the plates. Try it when you are around here
I liked the chill atmosphere. The service was fast and polite. The menu provided many options but I can't say I was impressed with either the ideas or with the actual taste of the plates. But, okonomiyaki stood out as probably the best dish of all.
I went last Friday with my wife, while the sushi was good a few things made me in the end give 3 stars.

Talking about the good things first.

The sushi was good and seemed really fresh. The vegetable gyoza was also really tasty.

The takoyaki was really good as well, but they could have added more octopus inside, it think it was not enough.

Everyone in the restaurant were really nice and giving a lot of attention to us. In the end we had a little chat and this was a nice thing from them.

What I didn't like

1) The long wait for eveything. During the whole mean we had to wait quite a bit for the things. Two beers took them nearly 15 minutes. There was a lot of delay to bring our food as well.

2) I ordered the TANTAN and for me it was missing flavour. I've tried others in Berlin and this is not really in my top 5.
