Profile

This Japanese chain's pork-based house soup—one of three broth bases along with curry and miso—topped with sliced roast pork, scallions, and hard-cooked egg, is rich and satisfying, the whole-wheat noodles just a little shy of al dente. Even better is the “tenderous ribs” version, which turns out to be soup with slow-cooked boneless pork ribs. Tenderous indeed.

i sure hope this is... did someone pay you critics off to do a favorable review? the food is horrible. the meat is way overcooked, there's more juices in jerky than there is in the meats Ajisen serves. Theres so many other Ramen joints that are alot better than this

Ajisen noodle has over 100 shops in HK and China, so I had to give it a try here. The noodle is excellent!! Next time you are there, give it a try! The staffs are very friendly and attentive, especially to kids!
