Review brief
What reviews not flagged by Revdict say
Takesan Ramen is a popular spot in Warsaw offering a unique ramen experience served in hot donabe clay bowls, featuring imported Japanese ingredients and complimentary water. While many diners praise the authentic flavors, generous portions, and exceptionally welcoming staff, some reviewers find the broths bland or the pricing for extras like eggs disappointing.

Delicious, aromatic ramen, nice noodles, and a large portion. The clay bowls really do retain heat, keeping the ramen warm until the very end. The service is very friendly and helpful. Even though it's a new place, most of the tables were a...

The attention to detail is stunning! This was my first time trying donabe dishes, but the waiter explained everything, and honestly, I appreciate it very much. The food was delicious, and the service was very friendly. I went with my wife a...

The well-trained staff explains the history of the restaurant and interesting facts about miso and the special dishes the ramen is served in. At times, they were almost overly attentive, removing every used tissue from the table quickly, al...

A new place, minimalist decor, pet-friendly (you can bring your crocodile along). Water is included with every meal. The ramen is delicious! Discreet service! We'll definitely be back!

I highly recommend it! This ramen is better than any I've ever had, very filling and tasty. The service was friendly! Respect for the carafe of water to start, especially in this heat ;) I recommend it!

The ramen is tasty, but unfortunately, my expectations were a bit higher than reality. The ramen itself is okay, but the broth lacks the depth of flavor and intensity I expect from good ramen. It seems underseasoned, and therefore doesn't q...

Paitan is completely tasteless, like hospital soup with pale chicken scraps. Spicy Tonkotsu isn't much better, with a flat flavor, a lumpy broth, as if curdled, and a slice of chachu so thin it looked like it was cut with a laser. The icing...
Extra charges for eggs
Reviewers complain that eggs are not included with the ramen and carry an expensive separate surcharge.

The ramen is fantastic, and the place and service are equally as good! One star less for the exorbitant 7 złoty surcharge for the nitamago egg, and you also have to pay extra for the nori. All good ramen places in Warsaw already include the...
Indoor temperature and noise
Some diners note that the restaurant can become overly hot and stuffy, sometimes compounded by loud or repetitive music.

Honestly? I completely fail to understand people's enthusiasm for this place. The place doesn't have air conditioning, so it's 30 degrees Celsius inside, which is disappointing. The ramen was very average, lacking in toppings. The broth was...

The ramen is outstanding. Unfortunately, the place has a significant temperature problem. The ramen is served in preheated dishes, which take a long time to warm up, and the interior is overheated. Everyone around them was eating with red...

The tonkotsu (pork) broth paired perfectly with the miso flavor, melting in your mouth. The hot pot concept is unique (a first in Poland). It keeps the ramen warm for a long time, but be careful because it's really hot!

The ramen was quite tasty, although the noodles were a bit too soft for my liking. I would have liked to see a slightly larger portion of vegetables. The very friendly and professional service is a big plus. The only downside was the rather high temperature in the restaurant – the air conditioning c...

Our appetizer was the pork gyoza dumplings, delicious! With every bite, we craved more. Next, we ordered the classic ramen, which proved to be a hit. The dish was perfectly composed and full of flavor. The service also deserves special mention. Professional, courteous, and of a very high standard....

Miso in silence, umami does most of the talking - the heat does the rest.
