Takumi Leipzig Chicken & Vegan in Leipzig

Delicious food, pleasant service, very friendly and helpful, only the long queue to get a table was a bit annoying. On the other hand, we were there at rush hour on Friday evening and the fact that it was so full speaks more for the restaurant 😉.

Very tasty food, lots of vegan options. It cannot be reserved, so it's worth being there as soon as it opens. Half an hour later everything was occupied, so you have to plan for a waiting time.

Lovely!!! The food is great. Finally no Vietnamese. And so delicious. Ambience is great. Service super friendly. Clear recommendation.

Lovely place, service is perfect very kind people here ! Food is amazing, so much vegan choices ! I took vegan shio ramen and vegan gyozas, it was absolutely delicious, thank you very much!

En-shit-ified. A few years ago was very delicious and authentic, hence the good reviews. Unfortunately not is little more than warm broth with noodles. A few years ago it was very tasty and authentic, hence the good reviews. Unfortunately, it's not much more than warm broth with noodles.

The food was very tasty and the prices are great.

The teriyaki chicken drumstick is particularly delicious and so cheap! The waiter is so handsome and very friendly.

The ramen at Takumi is simply great! No matter whether with or without meat - if you're in the mood for a great Japanese noodle soup with side dishes (I think the curry croquettes are great), you'll be happy here.

The egg in the noodles has gone bad and smells really sour. The staff said they’ve been getting feedbacks about the egg but they apparently didn’t do anything. It’s actually shocking that a restaurant should serve food that they know is wrong and charge the same amount of money. Insane, I’ve been here many times but now would just never go back.

The food tastes and smells good, looks good too; At least it's not worse compared to another famous ramen joint. However, the "spicy" items on the menu aren't even a bit spicy. Unfortunately, the soup of the day tastes like instant noodles in my opinion. Unfortunately the service is very weak and slow. I've been here three times but never got the menu, and selectively so - the waiter brought the cards to the tables at the back and front, except to me. But he never forgot the tip.

Had a vegan ramen. Unfortunately, for the very high price, the broth is weak and there are hardly any toppings. Tomatoes and a bit of cabbage on a ramen? Really? There's a lot of tofu and mushrooms missing, without having to pay extra.

3.5 stars The food was OK. It was unusual for us that the only meat we had was chicken. Unfortunately, the Tantanmen Ramen wasn't spicy. Chicken was good though. All in all it was a good solid meal. But it can't keep up with what we already had. The rooms didn't have much character or comfort.

I had my first ramen experience at Takumi and can only recommend it. The ramen was very rich and freshly prepared. The service was quick and friendly.

Best ramen restaurant in Leipzig.

Food is ok, it’s not as good as Takumi in Düsseldorf.

Food 10/10 Capybara toilet paper 100/10

An inconspicuous little frame restaurant with very tasty surroundings and great service. Gladly again.

Great noodle- broth for my taste was too salty. Service was fine, atmosphere was just ok.

A very good, delicious ramen restaurant in Leipzig! Sometimes you have to wait until a seat is free but that's totally fine because the frames are very, very tasty. Can just be recommended!!!

Mega delicious ramen - we were even lucky enough to get the last two special editions in the evening ;)

Attended with my family evening before closing. We ate and sampled 6 different dishes, 2 ramen and the rest side dishes. I am sorry to say that the food is a bit bland, lacks the freshnes of herbs like koriander and.

The ramen is delicious and large portions! The space situation is difficult. Unfortunately you can't make a reservation, no one ever answers the phone number that's stored here on Google, I tried it at different times several days in a row. It's best to be there as soon as it opens, otherwise you'll end up waiting in line until a spot becomes available. As a guest, you feel under pressure when new guests are waiting behind you. It is also very loud in the store because of the wooden chairs on the wooden floor. Overall, delicious food, but the location doesn't invite you to linger or meet friends.

Sometimes stuff is a bit slower but the best ramen in the city!

Very tasty food. Good ramen and good chicken/rice bowls.

Super tasty miso ramen and very nice and helpful service. Highly recommended!

Disastrous service. If you're lucky, it opens at 12 p.m. unless the waiter arrives 15 minutes late. Then the guests are initially ignored and no work is done.

Very busy, but the food is great

We had a table very quickly, the staff were very friendly and the food was simply delicious. Clear recommendation!

As a customer I almost feel cheated. Takumi offers a points card, which was full for me. According to the label, I could get my favorite ramen free. Then when paying: Etch! The use of the bonus card must be registered when ordering. But this is nowhere apparent on the map. The reason: The cash register device cannot do otherwise. No goodwill or anything like that, just had to pay in full. That's unprofessional and disappointing. At least state that on the card! It's a bit of a mess for me.

Delicious food, clean toilets, friendly service. Parking is a bit difficult but the location is good. 5 minutes walk from the main train station.

The shop is extremely busy, probably simply because there is a lot of vegan ramen here. But here's a rule that can apparently now be applied to Europe: good ramen shops never have more than a handful of ramen on the menu. In any case, the ramen is just not good. Example Yuzu Ramen, carelessly put together and not coordinated, the thin broth tasted as if Knorr chicken broth had been "refined" with ready-made lemon seasoning. The noodles had not taken on the bland taste at all. In addition to a few carelessly arranged pieces of vegetables, there was also an unappetizing, thick piece of chicken fat floating in the bowl; there wasn't much of meat to be seen. We ordered takoyaki that came with a sauce that tasted suspiciously like curry ketchup(!). When it comes to the negative reviews, the store is sometimes very sensitive to criticism, but that doesn't surprise me when it comes to the kitchen. But at least the service on site was nice and the atmosphere is really nice. Too bad.

Food is great here, highly recommended! You might need to wait a bit to get a table.

Clear recommendation! The food was very tasty. The waiting time was completely okay even though the restaurant was busy. The service employee was very helpful and friendly - I had no idea what was on the menu but the employee explained everything to me very well and in the end I had a delicious meal in front of me 😋

Super delicious ramen shop! You definitely have to go, it's absolutely worth it😍 Accordingly, the ramen also has high prices. Only the service wasn't great.

Diverse selection and very tasty ramen! The ambience fits very well and is lovingly furnished. Top!

Super tasty authentic ramen 🍜 clear recommendation!!!

It was very tasty, would be happy again

Bad food, bad service - no; no service, dirty tables, old dirty menus - what a disgusting place to eat. Avoid - rather go hungry…

By far the best ramen in Leipzig so far. The limited dishes are highly recommended. Very tasty strong broth. Unfortunately, the stools are a bit uncomfortable in the long run, but otherwise the furnishings are very harmonious and inviting. I come here again and again and have never been disappointed

Service was nice, location was also pleasant. Unfortunately, I found the broth (Miso Ramen) to be quite bland. There can be more boom in there. The toppings are also rather atypical and a bit bland for ramen. The waiter's pants were really cool though.

Likely one of the best Ramen places you will find in Leipzig. Let's start with the best: Their Karaage is amazing. It came out hot, larger cuts, solid crisp, fatty meat, juicy inside... it's a great dish! The Ramen itself had a very good broth and great noodles. We ordered Creamy White TanTan Men and Spicy Miso. I wonder if the recipe was adjusted for the area, as a lot of the garnish they added distracted from the actual Ramen experience, which was a shame. It started to overwhelm the dish, which some people may actually enjoy more than the traditional experience. The broth was solid but could have used more depth (it was lighter than my experience in Japan and LA). We had some bad luck with the service, where the waiter responsible for us kept forgetting about us even after approaching them. That was frustrating. It's definitely a bit on the pricier end (even compared to LA where I'm from). Usually I would have been harsher with the star rating, but I really appreciate them spreading the love for Ramen in Leipzig, so go check it out.

I have rarely waited voluntarily for food - after 20 minutes it was brought to the table, the place was full... It was phenomenally tasty, the portion was more than large, fresh, extremely tasty and the price was right. Gladly again!!

The service is extremely poor where cleaning, serving, ordering and paying are managed by one waiter. I spent 20 mins waiting for a seat where there's clearly an available table and more also waiting for more than 20 mins just to pay my bill. I am not complaining about the waiter, but how Takumi run a restaurant, if you just hire one more employee how much turn table you can generate is not that hard to calculate, tremendous amount of disappointed customers only make you survive when there's no competition. The service and operation process of Takumi in Germany is extremely poor, it only gets popular because people don't have a better option. The abnormal waiting queue is very normal for Takumi and as they would keep the table open and not serve anyone but Takumi Leipzig is a new low by keeping me waiting for crazy long just to pay the bill.

I really liked the large vegan selection! The taste was solid, I would have liked a little more spice. The service was really not good. I always have a lot of sympathy for the service staff but I was really very annoyed. At first we had to wait a very long time (Sunday 6:30 p.m.), which the staff can't do anything about, but later we realized why there were always such long waiting times: We had to wait a long time at the table to get tickets and be able to order. The food was brought relatively quickly (30 minutes). An appetizer wasn't included in the order but at least we didn't have to pay for it. Unfortunately, cutlery was only available upon request and we had to ask for napkins twice. When we were finished we had to wait a long time to be able to pay while many people were waiting for a table. That was a real shame.

If you want to enjoy real ramen, this is the right place! Taste and ingredients are of the highest quality. We also recommend the side dishes, which are absolutely convincing. After I've been there a few times now, I unfortunately have to give a massive deduction for the service. At times you feel like you've been turned off and forgotten. It can take over 10 minutes just for an order to be taken. The store is very busy, no question. But the organization simply doesn't work.

So by far the best frame shop in Leipzig. I can definitely recommend it to everyone.

Spontaneously delicious Asian food, very nice service with detailed advice and recommendations.

An all-round delicious experience! The gyoza are delicious, but the ramen really stands out. An absolute must for ramen lovers! 🍜👌 Attention ‼️ The store can be very busy on weekends. But the wait is worth it. Best frame shop in Leipzig.

Highly recommended restaurant near the train station The service employee Minh explained various dishes to us and was always attentive. The food was great. We had different ramen, which had a very good seasoning. The noodles weren't overcooked either, which is what you often get. Definitely worth a visit and a fair price-performance ratio because the portions are filling. Guests should definitely try the gyozas

Minh is very hospitable and the food is great! Absolute recommendation!

Service is underground. It's hard to believe that it's possible to forget your guests in such a small room. The table is not wiped down, no card is brought. The waiter sits down next to you for a small order and is totally unfriendly and unprofessional. We had to wait three quarters of an hour to order while four groups that came after us were already served and finished their food.

Safe and stable artisan ramen. There are ramen restaurants all over Germany where you can enjoy consistent quality and a wide variety of ramen. When it comes to greed, it's the type of noodles, pork bone ramen, etc. It seems like the possibilities are still expanding...! If I was going to try a middle-class ramen shop, I would choose Takumi Ramen.

I have no idea how the main dishes taste because we went for the entries. The entries were fantastic! We had most of the entries of the fist side of the menu and one vegetarian spring roll. I actually liked the spring roll most. But all very tasty. I can recommend going to Takumi.

very tasty and super good service❤️ The waiter who served us was extremely friendly - we'll be back

Waiting a little too long but it was worth it

I can recommend it to everyone. Really delicious ramen that you could also get in Japan.

To be honest, I was surprised by the large number of visitors and the high rating. I thought it would be something divinely delicious, but it turned out to be just an ordinary noodle soup. Absolutely nothing special and quite expensive for such a dish. I can cook much more interesting things at home.

I can't fully understand the many positive reviews. The store was extremely busy. We were there at lunchtime. We waited a long time for the food and were unfortunately disappointed. The ramen is very simple and clear in quantity and consists mainly of noodles and a few pieces of vegetables… service very friendly!

The food is good. But the Asian waiter's behavior... Do you really think he's Brad Pitt? Your relaxed attitude is simply disrespectful. You need therapy...

Food was delicious, service friendly and fast, location cozy with Asian influences. A real "insider tip", which is no longer one. Arriving early saves you from having to wait long times 😂

We had to wait in line outside for a while, but it was worth it. Really delicious ramen with good noodles, super tasty soup and fresh ingredients. Crispy Chicken as a starter...highly recommended. Price performance is simply top. It wasn't the last time we were there.

Fast service and the long wait (45 minutes) for the delicious food was totally worth it. Very busy small location (space for around 34 guests indoors), so please allow for a waiting time. There is a star deduction for the service. After ordering drinks and food, the behavior of the waiter who served us made it seem as if we were on the farewell track. 😅 We wanted to order drinks, but this was ignored until the plates were cleared, despite letting us know and waving at us every now and then.

This restaurant was just a few minutes walk from our hotel. We were very lucky to get a table for three straight away. The ramen tasted fantastic. We particularly liked the variety of vegetarian dishes. We will definitely come back again.

Ramen in a spartan atmosphere, just like in Japan, but👍

I went there for the first time today and had the Shoyu Ramen with Crispy Chicken. It was incredibly delicious! The service was very friendly and the portion was more than sufficient. I rolled out happy after eating. :D

Best ramen restaurant in Leipzig. The food always tastes amazing, simply incredible. Only the waiters could sometimes show a little more motivation, but that's complaining at a high level.

Unfortunately, our waiter didn't know if I could take away food after my meal. He couldn't answer me when I asked what my vegan broth was. Unfortunately, the ramen was absolutely unspectacular, even though I already had the most expensive and “special” vegan ramen for a proud price of just under 17 euros. Unfortunately there's really too much hype.

I have had ramen every where from the South Pole to Japan. This place serves one of the best ramen I have had on this planet. Whoever does there noodles also deserves this compliment. Broth is complex but not overwhelming in any area. Well balanced flavors. Crispy chicken in the ramen was extremely flavorful with great crunch to the bite. Super affordable too.

Always delicious! The frames are very tasty and the sides are also great. Especially the gyoza 🥟 and edamame!

Unfortunately the 2 most popular ramen at 6:30 p.m. are already out. That's why I couldn't try again. The other ramen are very similar in taste. I still really enjoy being here. Young, very friendly and professional staff. Probably no longer an insider tip.

Super super delicious food! ❤️❤️ The service was extremely friendly

Large selection, delicious food.

Best frames I've ever eaten... very friendly staff

Love their Ramen & triple fried chicken.

A really nice, small place in the middle of Leipzig where you can enjoy very tasty ramen (also vegan) or a few alternative dishes (but that's not the point here) in a convivial atmosphere. The service is always friendly and as quick as possible in a place that is always busy. If you would like to try one of the special ramens that are offered in limited quantities every day, you should be quick. They are in great demand.

We went to Takumi on a Friday evening and were lucky to get a table after about 20 minutes of waiting. The restaurant was very busy and a bit noisy, but the atmosphere was still pleasant. The food was really good. The kimchi was nice and spicy and fermented, the croquettes were crispy and the vegan ramen was very flavorful and filling. The portions were large and the prices were fair. The service was friendly, but it took a while before we were served. This was probably because the restaurant was so busy. A reservation is not possible.

Small but nice. A great selection of dishes. Fresh ramen of the day. Some ramen are only available with 30 servings per day. Since I was late, the ramen mentioned above was no longer available. So I got advice on the miso ramen. It was just delicious! Afterwards there was black sesame ice cream, which I can also highly recommend. A word about the team and service is simply great. There may be a bit of a wait at peak times but it's worth it.

Great service😁and tastes very tasty😋

We wanted to eat ramen during our short visit to Leipzig. This restaurant was just a few minutes walk from our hotel. We were also very lucky to get a table for two straight away. We had a nice table by the window. The selection of appetizers and ramen was large. The food came quickly and tasted really fantastic. It was also very plentiful. Many thanks to the nice service. We will definitely come back again.

I think it's very overpriced for what comes in the bowl. The main ingredients were broth and noodles. There was also a leaf of pak choi, 2 mini pieces of meat and a touch of sprouts. The taste was ok or bland. It's not worth 16 euros for me.

Ramen is very tasty. The service was new and a little unsure, but friendly. The prices are reasonable.

For me the best ramen in Leipzig! 😍 There aren't too many seats, so you sometimes have to wait a while until a table becomes available, but it usually takes less than 15 minutes. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I've been there several times and both the chicken ramen and the vegan ramen are absolutely delicious and large portions that fill you up. 😊

Very tasty ramen in an authentic atmosphere. Cozy, delicious, casual and tastes excellent. Always my pleasure!

The owner's service was bad. Free drinking tap water in German I asked for it, Taking water that is sold for a fee at will I was ripped off by saying I couldn't cancel. Water cost over 5 euros. The food was delicious, but It was a price that made no sense and was a waste of money. Donburi is definitely not recommended.

Incredibly delicious... no wonder the place is full just after 5 👍👍💯

Liebes Takumi-Team, ich möchte meine Begeisterung für euer Restaurant ausdrücken. Das Essen war nicht nur unglaublich lecker, sondern auch äußerst authentisch. Die Atmosphäre vermittelt keinesfalls den Eindruck eines gewöhnlichen Bistros, sondern transportiert das Gefühl einer echten kulinarischen Reise. Vielen Dank für dieses unvergessliche Erlebnis!

Die Ramen sind eher durchschnittlich, die für den Preis gebotene Qualität stimmt leider nicht.

Das "Takumi" besuchte ich heute das 1.Mal und fand es bedauerlich, dass die vegane Ramensuppe (für meinen Geschmack) inhaltlich und geschmacklich recht schmal ausfiel - mit einfachen Mehr-Zugaben, hätte hier ein Geschmackserlebnis serviert werden können. Auch beide Vorspeisen waren nach meinem optischen Erleben eher banal in der Ausführung - ohne jede Deko und beide ausschließlich mit Majo - statt die Chance zu ergleifen, die wundervolle Geschmacksvielfalt der asiatischen Soucen zu präsentieren. Nachwürzmöglichkeit wurden keine auf den Tischen angeboten und das Fehlen jeglicher Tischdeko ergeben eher ein puristisches Bistro-Feeling. Wenn man asiatische Speisen auf Bistro-Art wünscht, dann ist (nach 1. Erfahrung!) das "Takumi" zu erwähnen. Vielleicht will ich mich ja irgendwann noch auf eine 2. Erfahrung einlassen...?

Die japanische Küche ist so vielfältig und qualitätvoll - leider findet man im Takumi davon nur einen Abglanz. Die bestellte Ramensuppe war mit nur wenigen Zutaten recht einfallslos gestaltet, die Nudeln noch sehr bissfest. Die Bedienung war sehr nett, stand jedoch fachlich nicht gut in der Materie. Bei den kleinen Holzhockern, auf denen man sitzt, muss man aufpassen dass man hinten nicht runterfällt. Fazit: wenn man das Takumi als Bistro begreift statt als Restaurant, geht es, obwohl dann die Preise etwas hoch sind. Es gibt in Leipzig mehrere Möglichkeiten, stilvoller, mit einem besseren Preis-Leistungsverhältnis und in gemütlicherer Atmosphäre japanisch zu essen.

Dieses Ramen Restaurant wurde mir von mehreren Seiten als das Ramen Restaurant in Leipzig empfohlen. Ich hatte bis jetzt leider noch keine richtig gute Ramen hier und auch im Takumi konnten meine Erwartungen nicht erfüllt werden. Ich hatte die Mala Paitan, die Brühe war leider wenig komplex und hatte fast keine Tiefe im Geschmack. Das Topping mit dem Crispy Chicken fand war saftig und lecker. Meine Freundin hatte Tan Tan Men, die fand ich leider noch enttäuschender und zwar auch ganzen Linie. Das Personal war nett, das Ambiente fand ich auch gut.

Wir haben ohne Reservierung ein Tisch für 2 Personen bekommen, aber bestimmt weil wir direkt 17 Uhr gekommen sind. Jedoch sollte man im Vorfall reservieren, da sich doch schon eine Schlange gebildet hat. Was mich auch nicht wundert, denn die Ramen sind unglaublich lecker! 😋 Die Kellner:innen sind sehr freundlich und aufmerksam trotz des Stresses. Es ist ein etwas kleineres Restaurant, weshalb man sich vielleicht eingeengt fühlen könnte. Dennoch würde ich jedem Ramen-Liebhaber dieses Restaurant empfehlen! 🍜

Es war soooo Lecker und alle so freundlich

Bin sehr zufrieden, Ramen super lecker, vorallem das Limitierte Special, die Vorspeisen und auch die Zusatzspeisen (Side dishes) fand ich lecker. Ich probiere mich gerne durch die Karte durch. Schicke kleine Bänke zu den Tischen zum sitzen echt gut, auf Innenraum Design wird Wert gelegt, viele Pflanzen, echt gemütlich. In Bahnhofs Nähe.

My personal go-to for ramen, just perfect!

Sehr nettes Personal. Essen überzeugt. Die karte jst zwar ein bisschen klein aber dafür beherrschen sie das Handwerk sehr gut. Nur zu empfehlen.

Ich freue mich 80er, wenn ich in einer Stadt Ramen essen kann. So großartig im Geschmack, sehr schön angerichtet, tolles Geschirr. Ich komme wieder, hat mir sehr gut gefallen! 🥰

Super leckere Ramen und freundlicher Service. Das Shoyu Ramen war perfekt nach einem regnerischen und kalten Tag. Toll ist auch, dass die Bonuskarte in allen Takumi Filialen gültig ist, bspw. auch in D‘dorf.

Keine Wartezeit, super lecker, Nudeln on Point und sehr freundliche Bedienung! Gern wieder :)

Die Ramen waren wirklich super frisch und lecker. Das Lokal ist sehr ansprechend, nur sitzt man leider viel zu eng beieinander.

Gerne wieder. Sauber und freundlich. Waren bei einem neuen Besuch wieder geflasht.
