We came to Monohon after initially intending to eat at another (more popular) ramen restaurant however due to it being the night before Lockdown 2.0 everywhere was extremely busy. We had a bit of a wait to get in but my god, it was worth...More
Asked for a table and they told me to sit right next to the door even though there were plenty of available tables. Awful service and no attempt to be helpful. You would think they would try to be more accommodating. Don’t go to this...More
Hi there, I'm sorry to hear about your bad experience. Perhaps I can explain our policy. It's a small restaurant to begin with, but with covid distancing restrictions, we're down to just about 20 seats. We now only have 4 tables left that are for...More
I love this place. We went recently and though there was a queue it moved pretty quickly. It was like stepping inside Japan for a couple of hours. We got served almost immediately and the food was delicious. My boyfriend polished off his whole bowl...More
In a few words the Abura Soba i ordered looked good but it was somehow flavourless. I added a bit o spicy oil and it turned ok in the end. I have a big doubt the noodles were soba but rather normal noodles, tasty but...More
Hi there, thanks for your review. I'm sorry you didn't like the dish so much. You are absolutely right, they are not soba noodles. The name of the dish is 'Abura Soba' because in some contexts, 'soba' is just a generic work for 'noodles' in...More
Had lunch here recently and really enjoyed the food. They do a lot of soups and other Japanese food. I had the fat Men curry which was excellent! The problem is that this is a really small place., and the chairs are placed very close...More
Hi there, I'm super glad you liked the food. You're right, the restaurant is a tight squeeze. I can imagine for some people that's not totally ideal although we rather like it since it reminds us of the ramen shops we fell in love with...More
Normal place, attentive staff and good food. The size of the portion is great. Unfortunately, I think it's a bit pricey.
Amazing ramen! Been to Japan many times and this is like something you would find randomly wandering around a Tokyo neighbourhood. Going again very soon.
Thank you so much for this lovely review! It's our favourite thing ever to be told our spot is like something you'd find in any random Tokyo backstreet. That is exactly what we are aiming for!
This is a great little spot for Ramen, not far from the underground. It's small and be aware that they wont seat your group until everyone arrives. Because space is tight you may have to wait outside until you can be seated. The night I...More
Found this gem of a restaurant on a rainy Monday night in October... and it was full! Delicious authentic Japanese dishes and beers. Very limited menu with the choice effectively either with or without pork Great food, service and informal atmosphere.
A genuine gem.. the only place in London doing soup free ramen which is one of my favorite Japanese dishes. Very authentic and delicious.. make sure to get the mop up rice to ensure no yummy sauce goes spare
