For 17€, I was able to get their lunch time special of one ramen and an appetizer. I got the kimchi arancini and it was absolutely delicious and something unique that I had never had before. The ramen was also very good and extremely filling. I couldn't finish both so I had a good amount of leftovers to take home for dinner making it an even better deal. Highly highly recommend.

This was a recommendation from a local so we had high hopes for it. It's so bad I'm writing this…read morereview as I'm sitting here waiting for the check. When we arrived, the door was locked and some employee opened it for us but then walked away. It took a few minutes for us to be acknowledged by someone else to seat us. When the server approached, we ordered water to start. When he returned with the water, we asked if they had straws and all he said was "yes" and he walked away when we said we needed a minute to order food. We ordered different things such as sushi rolls and gyoza and after an hour being there, we had received nothing. When the food finally came, my order was missing a roll and had sashimi on the plate, so he took the plate back. When he returned, he said the kitchen had made a mistake and they were out of tuna, even though the plate he took from me had tuna. The only thing that was wrong on the original plate was the sashimi. He asked if I wanted something else and I was so hungry, I asked if my other order could come out while I looked at the menu. What I did receive, did not have any tuna, even though the menu said it should, I guess that's my fault for asking for the other 2 rolls to come out, thinking all they would do is take the sashimi off the plate, but he should have told me they would not have any tuna at all to make sure I would still want it. The sushi did not have any flavor, not even the soy sauce helped. The most flavorful thing on the plate was the sesame seeds and I wasn't the only one at the table who thought that. It was so unenjoyable that I could not even finish the 2 rolls I had in front of me. The service was overall terrible, the server was not attentive or friendly. The food was severely overpriced. The only good thing about this meal was the gyoza, and that another server came to tell us the kitchen was doing a last call for food. It's definitely one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had and our group of 6 is all in agreement. Would not recommend, would absolutely not return, not even for free.

(Still hurts) The server should have said something. Same with the "warm" sake, too hot to even hold the serving container. Again, no warning.

It might not be a prophetic catch phrase, but I never expected a ramen joint like this during my travels to Dublin. The dense menu of ramens galore nearly suffocated my appetite because they all sounded magnificent. The cons in service were entirely made up for when these deluxe bowls of ramen landed on our table. The size gargantuan, the aroma intoxicating, and satisfaction guaranteed. Garlic Lovers Ramen - It starts with Tonkotsu AND Miso broth, which was redonkulous. Then the fried onion, grated garlic and black garlic oil elevated the bowl into one of the most intense ramen flavors I've had. The grilled chicken was odd, as expected, it just dried out too quickly. The Seasoned Egg (phenomenal!) tied the entire dish together.

It was a short walk to the hotel before I got to eating but everything was still warm :) There was a nice variety in the box including the chicken, rice, shrimp poppers, and sushi. There was also a side of miso soup! Everything was very delicious. It was all the perfect texture and very generously portioned - I had leftovers! Overall, I had an efficient experience at Takara but definitely a yummy one. Would definitely recommend if you're wanting to try!
