Ramen1974 in Dresden

I would prefer to give it 6 stars. A very nicely decorated restaurant and the food was fantastic. It's best to sit at the counter. You almost feel like you're in a real ramen restaurant.

Very tasty ramen. Friendly conditions and great atmosphere. Didn't need a reservation on Saturday afternoon.

A special place in a special city... If you love Asian simplicity and cheapness, this is the right place for you. We were there as a group of 9 and got a rustic square table with a reservation... just perfect for us. The food is simple, but you feel like you're in Asia...you don't have to guess what it's supposed to taste like...it's well seasoned...but not overly seasoned. We had the curry and a bowl. If you want to criticize: Why are some ingredients cold? Pak choy and snow peas can also be served warm...but they weren't. We had a nice evening there in a location that we hadn't expected there...and were very satisfied!

Very friendly staff and fast service. We first had the typical “mouth pockets” and frames. I have Tonkotsu and wasn't very fond of it. The chicken/miso ramen my companion gave me, however, tasted great. I will also order next time. The ambience is of course not really comparable to a cozy restaurant and is certainly not ideal for long stays (based on previous comments), but I think that's not necessarily the basic idea here either, it's about quick and good food and not about partying for several hours upholstered furniture. I found the furniture and the dishes authentic, we'll be back. Update 11/2024: had Shoyu frames this time, it was okay. Then there was a frame with spicy minced pork (tantan?), which was actually quite good! Usual friendly service!

I ate tonkotsu and it was very tasty! This is my recommendation 🫰 Also a very atmospheric establishment, it was nice to sit by the window.

Japanese would be horrified if they ate here. Had tonkastu ramen and gyoza. I had better packaged gyoza that I bought at the grocery store. This basically was that. It's very crispy on the outside and dry on the inside. The ramen wasn't ramen. Seriously what kind of meet did they throw in there? Had meet like from pho and bruised beef from a Chinese style soup. Oh don't forget the boy choy. Is this fusion Chinese Japanese Vietnamese food? Did I witness my own murder? I'm starting to doubt all these reviews from others.

There were two of us for dinner on Saturday evening, it would have been better to have a reservation, luckily we found a place, even in a crowded restaurant, the service came within moments and the ramen was also on the table within 10 minutes. I had tonkotsu and my friend miso with chicken. It was less of a shock for me that there was a large piece of pork belly in the ramen, luckily the taste reminded me a little of Czech pork belly and the fear was gone. The ramen is different from, for example, what I am used to from Prague, where it is probably more adapted to us Czechs, but I still rate it positively. A pleasant and tasty visit. Toilets ok. I recommend booking in advance for the evenings.

We chose the miso and shoyu ramen and were absolutely thrilled and more than satisfied. The atmosphere is great and we personally really liked the fact that there were some pictures from the anime “Naruto” on the wall 😀 Absolutely delicious and recommended - we will definitely come back on our next trip!

The food was delicious, place looks like you are in Japan. Unfortunately it is not kid and wheel chair friendly, because the place was quite small.

Very cozy and friendly. Extremely delicious vegan ramen!

I visited this Ramen shop back in 2019 when they first opened and I was visiting Dresden with my friends. Came back this year on two visits to Dresden and dined in a couple of times. Still same good pork ramen, great soup and meat, I always take the Kimchi which is great and had the chance to taste the Gyoza as well. Overall a good experience, sometimes the staff is hard to communicate with but that's not that big of an issue. Thanks!

Very very tasty! I was here for lunch during the week. Miso + small drink €12.50. Highly recommended!

Nice atmosphere and that's it. Waitress rude, was more interested in her boyfriend. Waited 15 minutes for the drinks and then another 15 minutes for the food. By the way, the food was cold and the meat was of poor quality. Save your money and go to the next store

The food is really incredibly delicious. I could particularly fall for the Kakuni. Unfortunately the prices have gotten really high

I love their lemonade The ramen soup is salty The decoration is really beautiful

We had to wait a long time for our order even though there were very few people there. Likewise, others who came in later than us were served before us. Tables very uncomfortable. The tables are very low.

Cool little ramen shop with a pretty authentic atmosphere. No long waiting times and the taste is great.

I had a bowl of tuna. It was just disgusting. The smell was musty, the food was poorly put together, you really don't sit well (even if that's probably the charm of the restaurant), I personally would never go there again. However, the people are very nice

A feeling like being in a ramen kitchen in the Japanese mountains. Absolutely great. 👍

Very authentic restaurant with great food.

The food was great. But what was really annoying is the people running the place. I just felt they were a bit condescending. I did get the feeling that it was to do with my nationality as I had done nothing to be treated that way. I was not rude, or loud or demanding. I ordered and waited and got my food. However, I asked for water and it never came. No one came and asked if I'd like something to drink. I asked for a bill after paying, and was completely ignored. Infact I went to the counter to settle the bill to save them the trouble. Did not see the same happen to the other customers. So feel it was more targeted to me and my guest. In short, great food but horrible service. Food not worth the bad treatment.

Very positively surprised! Great, delicious & high quality food!

I had the Misu Ramen, which wasn't that bad in itself, but the sauce that came with the noodles was very bad, and it was pretty dark and small.

A matter of taste. Not just the food, but also the decor. A little more cleanliness couldn't hurt.

Attentive staff, very original decor and delicious ramen. Thanks for a great lunch! We recommend you!

Ramen und Gyoza waren sehr lecker, wir hatten jeder ein anderes und alle waren sehr lecker. Auf Extrawünsche wird im Rahmen des möglichen eingegangen. Extra wie mehr Nudeln oder extra Ei sind möglich.

It was my first time eating ramen and unfortunately I wasn't entirely impressed. First we had a place where cold air was constantly blowing at us in cold October. After the service came after 15 minutes, we asked for a new place. Then we sat directly in front of the counter, none of the seats were very comfortable. Everything was kept very small and cramped. The service was ok, it was quite busy so they seemed a bit overwhelmed to me. The food was also ok, but I found the starters even better, like the ramen.

We spontaneously got a larger table in the evening and received a friendly welcome. Nice service even when there is a lot to do. Everyone was happy with the ramen (or 1x bowl). The ramen really has a lot of content and tastes good. Hence good P/L. In winter I can imagine that the seats at the entrance are not nice as it gets quite draughty. Toilet is fine.

The ramen and gyoza were really delicious! We each had a different version and they all tasted great. Extra requests are accommodated wherever possible - for example, you can order extras such as more noodles or an additional egg and swap things out in the ramen. The restaurant also offers a nice atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating. Overall, highly recommended!

A very nice cozy Japanese restaurant with delicious food.

Absolutely recommended! A gem in that city :) the vegan tantan was very good.

The food was good, but service was terrible. After ignoring us for about 15 minutes, instead of handing us the menus the waiter rudely asked us to move to a smaller table where we had to seat back to back with other people just to put a "reserved" sign on our table. There was no "reserved" sign when we first came. It was extremely rude and heavily spoiled the overall impression of the restaurant. 4 for food, 1 for service. Also, an egg was missing in my ramen.

Wir hatten das Tekkadon und das Tonkatsu Curry. Der Thunfisch war völlig übergart, damit trocken und geschmacklos, schade um den Fisch. Dazu gab es kalten pak choi. Das "Curry" ist eine dicke pastenartige Tunke mit leichtem Currypulver Geschmack vom Discounter. Dazu ungewürzten Klebreis und ebenfalls kalten pak choi. Die 5 Zuckerschoten und die Sprossen sind ebenso kalt und ungewürzt, das Hühnerschnitzel ist zumindest in Tranchen geschnitten. Das beste an unserer Bestellung war das Fladchenbier. Zum essen braucht man nicht unbedingt dorthin gehen aber nettes Personal und schöne Deko.

Good food in a great atmosphere

Was in Dresden for a visit, and a friend asked us to have ramen, I was not expecting much, as we are from Asia were there are plenty of ramen shops. Was pleasantly surprise by the quality of the food, which was great! Would definitely come back when I can!

Extremely unfriendly, don’t understand German properly. They don’t know their own ingredients on the menu. Ignored my allergies and got the wrong order. The Vietnamese family then talks bad about you in front of you. Big disappointment

Doesn’t taste good, so expensive

For the price, one of the best ramen I've ever eaten. There was no skimping on the toppings, the egg was perfect and the meat was super tender. The miso soup was authentic and topped it all off. Beautiful ambience, sat by the window. Service was very nice and the food came quickly :) So if you want to spend time in a cool atmosphere with good and inexpensive food, this is the right place for you!

We went there for lunch today and we weren't disappointed! My ramen could have been a little hotter but the taste made up for it.

Amazing Chinese options and affordable

We ordered a miso ramen and a bowl with chicken and pork - both were very tasty!!! One of the best I’ve eaten.

The food was good, nothing extremely extraordinary, but solid. However the service and the whole experience was really bad. We wanted to sit outside, they had 2 big free tables, but they told us we cannot sit there. The entire time we were seated inside the 2 tables didn’t fill up. They we couldn’t pay by a card (no post that would specify upfront or any notification from the staff).

Nessuno ti accoglie all'ingresso, sono tutti indaffarati ma poi la cameriera è piuttosto cortese. ci siamo seduti al piano di sopra dove faceva davvero troppo caldo e c'era solo un grande ventilatore, nessun climatizzatore. cibo molto buono. sedute un po' scomode: i tavoli sono poggiati su cassette di bibite e non sai dove mettere le gambe.

Both had food poisoning after the shoyu and vegetarian tantan. Will not eat here again

Very tasty food, super friendly service, we will happily stop by again 😋😀

Very tasty food, with a manageable menu, great price and quality. The drink that was also very tasty was a homemade lemonade with ginger and lemon. All in all a great restaurant and highly recommended.

Very good Asian cuisine Tastes very good Portions are decent Meat buttery soft Noodles good Rice was perfect with the bowl We're coming back Price-wise it was really okay

Kakune as appetiser and Tonkatsu Curry as a main dish were so delicious and good, specially Kakune😋

Reviewed in May 2023. GREAT food. GREAT service. GREAT decor. GREAT atmosphere. I highly recommend it, especially to those who haven't...

A nice little shop with a Japanese atmosphere. The food was okay overall - the ramen wasn't particularly good or bad, and the food was served quickly. However, my starter, sweet pork belly, was very tasty. Unfortunately the staff wasn't particularly welcoming; Neither the waitress nor the kitchen staff greeted us or said goodbye, which I found extremely strange. In addition, the staff - three to four people - sat at the table directly behind us and talked loudly in Vietnamese. I've never experienced anything like this. General hygiene standards were also not met. Therefore I cannot recommend this restaurant.

Super delicious food and nice atmosphere... We'll be happy to come back

We had a “TONKOTSU” curry and a “TONKOTSU” ramen The curry was very fresh, European in taste, crunchy in the bite and very well portioned. The ramen was very mild, the pork was a dream in terms of taste and consistency. The noodles disappointed me a bit, I would have liked a certain selection (udon etc.) For me it would have been great if it were served super piping hot. The soup was still well tempered. Overall very good quality, very quick service.

Tasty, but a bit low if I hadn't eaten anything beforehand

Very tasty restaurant with friendly service. We had a vegetarian bowl. At first glance the portions didn't look huge but after eating we were very full. The bowl had a very balanced taste and was perfect for a warm day! The tofu was super juicy and flavorful. To drink we had a chilled green tea and I think a lemonade with honey. The lemonade was very honey-me and a nice change, I found it very tasty. The green tea was totally refreshing and keeps a real chilled tea. It was nice that this one wasn't too sweet! The other guests also thought the ramen was absolutely delicious! The service was delicious and there were a few places to sit outside. There were a few vegan and vegetarian dishes.

After sitting at the table for a quarter of an hour and no one noticed me - no hello, no card - I left again.

-Food was delicious -Went quickly (quick operation) -Is highly recommended👍👍 -Friendly service

Small but nice. Cute restaurant with friendly and fast service. Once again, the food tasted great. Any time!

Delicious ramen and friendly service. Try the homemade lemonade. The atmosphere is a bit too Neustadt🫠 all in all still recommended.

Very taste Ramen : Miso & Shoyu

Such an authentic place, I love the vibes. The atmosphere is amazing. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The ramen bowl was alright but I think it would’ve been better with more spice.

This small shop in Dresden Neustadt serves delicious ramen and bolws. The homemade lemonade with ginger and honey is a real highlight. We recommend.

Great restaurant, friendly, very tasty food and fast service, would be happy again 😃

The ramen was very tasty and spicy and, above all, sufficient. Unfortunately the tables were very dirty and rather unhygienic.

Unfortunately I made the mistake of not ordering the eponymous ramen but a rice bowl. No rice bowl like you would expect from a Japanese restaurant (simply incoherent ingredients) and the tuna steak was too dry and no longer edible. Too bad about the fish

Whenever I'm in Dresden, I find the ramen here very, very tasty. Maybe a little artificial tasting for some. Great pickled tofu.

Freshly made before your eyes. Friendly staff and quick service. Dished that I had were very good. Big portions and reasonably priced.

Food was great. Waitress was lovely and bought us an english menu.

Big Portions, very friendly staff. Absolutely adore the aesthetic!

Everything we tested was really tasty. Is recommended. Price-performance fits.

Anscheinend hat der Besitzer oder Betreiber gewechselt, die Öffnungszeiten sind verkürzt und es wird mehr Reis in die Bowls getan und dafür weniger Beilagen als früher, das ist sehr schade. Das essen ist trotzdem noch sehr gut, aber leider nicht mehr exzellent. Trotzdem sehr empfehlenswert! Das Restaurant in der Neustadt ist, aus welchem Grund auch immer, zudem besser als das auf der Prager Straße. Guten Appetit!

Went there for lunch on Wednesday. Food was really tasty and sufficient. The staff very friendly and accommodating. We'd love to come back. :)

Super tasty ramen, huge portion for a good price, and the toppings were all included in the price! We each had a starter (fried gyoza and kakuni), which were super large and delicious, as well as our own portion of ramen and a drink and still only paid just over €20 per person. If you don't take a starter, it'll cost you maybe €16 per person with a drink and the portion is big enough to definitely fill you up! The furnishings are also super beautiful and loving, you feel like you've been transported to Japan. All in all, probably the best ramen I've tried in Germany so far

Nice restaurant, nicely decorated. The ramen is rich and delicious

Quite tasty, but unfortunately the noodles here aren't authentic either (i.e. that typical somewhat al dente, "chewy" consistency, but I haven't found that anywhere yet)

Super cozy and familiar little Ramen restaurant in authentic Japanese atmosphere and taste. Very good for average restaurant price. You love umami? Then you will get addicted to this! It's the best Ramen I have eaten in my life in restaurants. Tipps: - come early if you want a place. It is the secret tip in the heart of the city and they do not have much room. Especially weekends in the summer. Better go 17:00 - 18:00 - I found the best umami tasting things are the eggs they put on the ramen. So my favourite is not on the menu but I eat it every time I am here and the cute Thai waitress always remembers it: Shoyu Ramen (the one on the left side of the menu) without any meat but rather lots of extra eggs. You should try that! Show them the picture I attached and say hi from me ;D - try the plum wine with it (Umeshu) - you have the young scene life outside. Fuel up with a good ramen and then see the bars and dance clubs or chill in the park

I had vegan shoyu names. Was delicious.

Authentic Japanese restaurant The most delicious ramen I've ever eaten Special design 🌸🩷

Stable ramen, little drama is what I always say.

Pleasant atmosphere. Friendly service. Delicious food

The Ramen 1974 in Dresden offers classic ramen options and other Japanese dishes. If you enjoy this type of cuisine, it's likely one of the best places for ramen in Dresden. What I liked: - **Atmosphere**: This restaurant is located in a quiet, popular area where you can meet many interesting people in the evening. Inside, you'll find typical Japanese family restaurant decor. - **Price**: My ramen selection cost 14.5 euros, which is reasonable for the quality and service in this area. Items for consideration: - Expect classic and limited ramen options, with only four non-vegan choices. - This place is best suited for small groups. - There is no ramen option with shrimp.

What I ordered: Tonkotsu Ramen My criticisms Toppings - 7/10 Very rounded and they have a variety of toppings. Chashu was well braised and flavour was balanced and soft. Ajitama yolk had a nice consistency. Broth - 4/10 Lacks thickness, needs more natural gelatin, noticed froth from emulsion blender. Flavour is not full, does not have the heavy punch of flavour required for a tonkotsu. Tare lacks natural flavour. Noodles - 1/10 Cut too short, could not pick up sufficient broth with one bite of the noodles. Needs more snap to the bite of the noodles.

Delicious ramen in a very nice atmosphere

I feel like I'm in a Japanese ramen house here. Or at least the way I imagine it there. The food is really tasty and the service is friendly. The price is still reasonable (not ramen), but it shouldn't be more expensive.

Busy place, quick service, good food, seating also outside on the street so you can be close to the evening buzz. Nothing extra fancy, good for a quick dinner.

Very tasty ramen. I was told by vacationers who had just returned from Japan that it was very authentic considering we were in Europe. But now to my personal impression: I like ramen here the best so far. I think the atmosphere is great and the service is friendly and accommodating. A very short-term reservation was also possible for me. The store is often well stocked and rightly so.

nice little restaurant with friendly staff and good food.

Very tasty and, in my opinion, authentic food. The ramen is highly recommended

Ordered miso ramen, a veggie tantan ramen, tonkotsu ramen, kimchi and homemade lemonade. Ramen was good, lemonade too. Service is slow and can only pay with cash.

Here I first have to say that I was in Tokyo last year and now compare it to a real typical ramen shop in Tokyo. A really small local. With somewhat cheap and run-down furnishings. But typical Japanese restaurant on a side street. The food was typical in these restaurants, even down to the seaweed leaf, which I didn't like in Japan. (purely a subjective matter of taste) I was pleased that there was actually typical Calpis (Capico) here. I was so sad that it was really difficult to buy in Germany. It's here. EXCELLENT. It is eaten with chopsticks and spoons. (such a fat wooden spoon) But if necessary, there is also a fork. The only thing that dampens the impression of being in a Japanese restaurant is. They speak Chinese and not Japanese. But honestly, we Europeans don't really notice that. So if you always want to eat like in Japan, you should come here.

Gyōzas were very tasty Ramen was 7/10, acceptably good, although a little expensive. The chicken bowl unfortunately wasn't good. The mushrooms had a very bad taste and smell, which affected the whole dish. I don't know if it's a regional cuisine thing, but I doubt it. In addition, bring cash; card payment is not accepted. Otherwise, the service was good. Generally I wouldn't recommend though.

The food was very tasty and had a good taste in terms of broth and side dishes. However, in my personal opinion, the noodles were not what I wanted, but it is just my personal impression and opinion that there is still room for improvement. But that would be complaining at a high level. The hustle and bustle of the seats outside didn't add much to the experience, which is why I'll visit the restaurant again in peace and quiet to perhaps improve the current initial rating. The restaurant is definitely worth recommending and I look forward to my next visit as a guest. I would like to thank the friendly service and the kitchen.

Small ramen restaurant in Dresden's "Schanzenviertel" with an open kitchen. Functional, furnished bordering on uncomfortable, service was okay (it had something of a check-in quality to it). Soup was good, but the noodles seemed to be instant noodles. Belly meat with a soft rind and a thick layer of fat underneath, may not be to everyone's taste. Clearly not designed for long stays, but for high throughput.

Ramen is always delicious and especially the lunch special is very worth the price.

Staff is not polite and not hospitable, that's why I didn't leave a tip. I won't visit again

Very tasty and authentic. I had the vegan bowl.

A very nice restaurant! I can only recommend it, the owners are super friendly and create a nice atmosphere. The mood is relaxed and humorous. We had a great evening.

the food was so good that i have been craving it since we ate it the first time two days ago!

We were here for lunch today and had TanTan soup. And this was very tasty and with good spiciness👌 The ambience is authentic. Price and performance top! Highly recommended👍

Great ramen! Veg options are very few though

Good ramen as always but the place isn‘t so spacious.
