Tokyo Ramen Takeichi Bismarck — Restaurant in Dusseldorf

Very nice Japanese Ramen place on the outskirts of the other typical ramen shops. The waiter we had didn't speak German, which was fine for us, but I think interesting to note!

They seem to specialize more in chicken dishes, as the chicken shoyu ramen definitely tasted much better than the pork version. The broth of the non-chicken shoyu ramen was fairly fishy, from the bonito broth and it was also much oilier than from other places - however I really enjoyed the consistency and flavor of the noodles themselves and the variety of toppings! Price-wise I think this place is really decent for what you get!

The people were very nice and friendly, and we were served incredibly quickly. A bit of heating in the restaurant wouldn't hurt, but if you eat soup it gets better. All in all OK and better than some more hyped ramen restaurants, but not too much to our tastes. Don't go if you want a rich, complex broth with many spices. This is a...

We had a wonderfull experience here! The food seemed a bit bland at first but the table comes set with an array flavor enhancers which allow you to taylor the meal to your own taste.

We had some questions regarding our appetizers and our lovely hostess Aimee was incredibly understanding and made us feel heard and even adamantly stated it was no issue to have it fixed. This really lifted the overal experience to a different level.

The only minor improvement I would suggest would be to turn down the volume of the serving tray-robot, for it regularly plays a tune (i'm assuming to state it's location to prevent bumping into it) which can distract from the entertaining playlist they have on the restaurant speakers, and thus becomes a bit of...
