Chaco Ramen Bondi — Restaurant in Sydney

A lovely little ramen joint with gorgeous interiors, ambience, service, and food to match as well. Prices as expected as an above average ramen joint, the food was definitely worth the experience too. We started off with a yuzu beverage and a lychee calpis slushie, which were both super refreshing and sweet. Then we had the soft shell crab sushi, it was just as good as I had expected, and I was happy to had tried it. The crab was cooked really nicely, it retained a certain crispiness I hadn’t had anywhere else, and the flavours were jam packed. The ramen was delicious, and I had asked for some of toppings on the side, and they accommodated me well with a decently large portion. I had a special ramen at the time, it was a spicy ramen with a bunch of toppings included. It wasn’t all too spicy as well, which is not a problem since there was a slap of chilli paste on the rim of the bowl that I could add to my liking. The ramen was absolutely brimmed with toppings, it was about $30 so It made sense, but I was shocked at how generous they were. It came with karaage chicken, dumplings, egg, and the classic bamboo and fungus (on the side). I was full before I even got halfway through it. The flavours were great, the savoury of each condiment blended well with the broth, and nothing were ever too dominant or overpowering in each bite, though you’d ideally have a bit of one savoury topping on its own instead of a mix. It was an absolute pleasure to eat here and I’d love...

Came here on a Friday night and thankfully we could book ahead as it got packed after 8pm. We ordered the chicken wings karaage and original gyoza for entree. Chicken was flavoursome and juicy! It was delicious and came in 6 wings. Original gyoza was also superb, highly recommend to order both of these. For mains we got the special Yuzu scallop and special fish salt ramen. And OMG the broth for both of these ramen were sooooooo good! Especially fish salt ramen 🫰 #chef's kiss It has the traditional pork soup base but also mixed with seafood/fish taste. The Yuzu pork broth was so refreshing. The scallop and the fish wonton that came with it was delicious! However, the chashu I felt complemented better with the fish salt ramen. So would recommend to order Yuzu scallop ramen on its own and order fish salt ramen with special as it includes chashu, egg and bamboo with it. Overall I loved the food and would come...

RUN ! BAD FOOD, DIRTY DISHES, RUDE WAITRESS. We had the pork ramen, it was so so so salty, the noodles are flavourless, the pork was a bit smelly and the soup is full of salt, it’s just salt soup. The worst thing is not clean + rude, our bowl is very dirty, we asked the waitress, she bring it back so fast I didn’t have time to take a photo, she come back no sorry, just say they cleaned it, then we went to say that we thought they should at least say sorry that maybe it’s almost the closing time, missed one plat which happens, but no, they just say oh we don’t know why it’s dirty but we cleaned it. That’s it, then there is a woman come with an even ruder attitude, saying oh you guys want a sorry, then sorry, and we feel like ?????? Definitely the worst experiences I...
