Takumi NINE Sapporo in Berlin

The ramen is quite authentic and provides the “al dente” texture just like those I had in Japan! Been to other locations in Europe and has not been disappointed! The interior decor is slightly different than other locations and probably needs a facelift.

Divine vegi ramen! Dearest employees! Disastrously small toilet without a lock)

Extremely nice staff. So delicious food. The toilet is a bit small but the rest is perfect. I've been going here for years and now I have my first stamp card full.

The best veggie ramen I've had so far and the veggie gyozas were also very good. You have to have a bit of patience because you definitely have to wait in line to get a table. I think it was absolutely worth it.

The shio ramen is delicious, super tasty and well made. We loved the service and the option of eating at the tables outside. One negative point is the chairs, which for the most part do not have backrests.

Very tasty ramen (also many vegetarian and vegan options)

Japanese ramen Takumi - there are three of them in Berlin: in Mitte and two in Prenzlauer Berg. We went to Takumi NINE Sapporo in Mitte🍜😄 Takumi's ramen was worth every expectation: delicious, thick broth for every taste (including vegetarian options). Spicy broth Tan Tan is our favorite, although of course Miso with soy paste and Shoyu with soy sauce are also worthy, but this is not for everyone. We ordered the Vegan Katsu Tan Tan with vegan fried chicken, the Namban Tan Tan with (non-vegan) fried chicken, and the Butakimchi Miso Ramen with kimchi cabbage and marinated pork - all highly recommended. 📩 Find out even more about the best cafes and restaurants in the city in the best telegram channel “Berlin Falafel”. It's always tasty and relevant here!

I came at around 7 p.m. on a Tuesday and was warmly welcomed. I was able to order pretty quickly and got my ramen. I took the Veggie Tan Tan Ramen, which was the best veggie ramen I've eaten in Germany and Japan so far. The broth was strong and spicy. The noodles weren't too firm or too soft, but just right. I also liked that they used meat substitutes. As a vegetarian, I was able to experience for the first time what it was like to eat ramen with “meat”. There was Japanese music in the restaurant and the staff also spoke Japanese, which made me feel like I was in Japan again. Overall, I'm very happy that this store exists and would be very happy if they moved to my hometown (since I was only in Berlin briefly as a tourist).

Small and narrow restaurant Ate ramen for the first time and was really impressed. Fast and very nice service. Ambiance is rustic and quaint, but still fits the theme. Shortcoming: Seating stool and chair are small and uncomfortable

Great Ramen!and fantastic service!

Soups were super tasty, the children also enjoyed the teriyaki chicken. We were even allowed to get cool T-shirts because it was the Easter promotion.

One of my favorite ramen in Berlin! Quality always stable. And the noodles are nice and chewy

Very good. If Berlin didn't have so many great restaurants, I would definitely come back.

Everything was perfect. personal were kind and polite. we really enjoyed calm atmosphere and delicious ramens. Dog presence allowed.

Food and service recommended and very good - ambience “clocky”

Nice experience and highly recommended

Yes, very tasty, I liked it a lot. We had two ramen bowls, along with gyoza and squid balls. Very good, the warm sake was also good.👌🏾

Best ramen I’ve had outside of Japan. The staff are young Japanese who speak good German. Apparently it’s part of a chain with stores elsewhere in Germany; I was there with someone who lives in Münster and they stamped her loyalty card from the franchise there. Vegan options available.

Always good when you want ramen :)

Best ramen in town. Directly from Sapporo

Super good!! The ramen is amazing, and the service is very good too 👌

This is the second time I was treated like this, not to mention the small seats in the place were crowded. When we came in, we were told to sit wherever we wanted. Not long after we sat down, we were asked to sit at other seats because a family was coming so they had to put the tables together! Why can't these things be arranged in advance? What kind of service is this when you sit down to eat and then get up to change seats?

Tasty ramen, nice service and a super cute and cozy atmosphere. We’ve tried Shoyu ramen and it was tasty. Cannot wait to go back and try the other two broths. We’ve also ordered a seaweed salad which was super tasty but a bit small unfortunately.

One of the best places to eat ramen. We ordered the vegan katzu ramen and it was excellent. Very rich in flavor, looked great and the service was very good too.

Leckeres Essen, freundliche Bedienung und faire Preise. Etwas eng aber trotzdem findet man Platz. Die Toilette ist in einem kleinen Extraraum im Außenbereich.

simply speechless. what a brilliant place for good Japanese food. Prices are not cheap, but value for money is right.

The food was excellent, the ramen one of the best I have ever had, the service really fast and very polite🙂🙂

Small, fine shop. The food is incredibly good! Lots of vegan options.

Everything was perfect! The ramen was so tasty and the service was really good. I think the store looks great too! You just feel very comfortable :) We would love to come back!!

We was visiting from London and this place was amazing. Great staff and the food was amazing.

We have had food poisoning since our visit yesterday! The soup with the minced meat must have been old.

Good quality of the food. A little more could be done when it comes to vegetarian or pescatarian alternatives. Price-performance was also right.

Best ramen in town! Friendly service!

The vegetable tempura are great and miso ramen is my favorite thing to eat here!

We waited for almost an hour on a Sunday. The food was delicious, especially the broth. The appetizers were equally delicious. The ramen is recommended with chicken as opposed to minced meat.

Walking by, I absolutely did not expect I will bump into what turned out to be the most delicious ramen in Berlin I tried so far! The servers were all very nice and polite, food arrived quickly, I only wished for the soup to be more spicy bit they had chili powder for that! Will definitely come again, thank you for a great food experience

That was perfect, the waiters were very nice, we didn't have to wait that long, the food was expensive but you get a lot of food, the food was super tasty 😋 I would recommend it

If you’re the Asian and the fan of ramen noodles and just been here (EU), this will disappoint you. But if you miss the food of Asia .. maybe you can try.

Crampy little place, uncomfortable to sit, very noisy, but above all very bland and boring food. Expensive starters (tasteless gyoza)/side dishes (half a small bowl of kimchi sets you aside 5 euro). Sojaramen consists of some no-love sojabroth, one leaf of paksoi, two chicken strips, three spoons of sweet corn and 4 sprouts (14 euro!). Verrrrry disappointing.

was cute but the ramen isn’t the best.. definitely overpriced, staff are very nice.

Fantastically delicious! Excellent ramen and authentic Japanese cuisine. Fresh ingredients, perfectly prepared and very tasty. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is friendly. Highly recommended.

The store is a bit crowded, but the taste is pretty good, but not amazing, and the price is a bit high. There are more and more chains all over Europe. Compared with the chains, this one has better taste!

My all time favorite restaurant in Berlin. The portion size is generous and the taste is out of this world. I love the pulled chicken tantan noodles.

By far the best ramen in Berlin.

THIS is Ramen to die for! Omg so tasty!!! The portion size is big. there is no way you go out and still be hungry. The flavors are delightful, and the vegan schnitzel is crispy and flavourful. We had the seaweed salad and veggie gyozas for starters - absolutely recommended! You just need to be patient or lucky, it's super crowded cause everybody knows it's fire 🔥

Tight, small, but cool place. Kimchi and Karaage appetizer. Delicious. Juicy and crispy chicken. Ramen tan tan men is very essential, full and rich. Just the way I like it. Bowl cleaned ;) However, ginger-lemon tea... could they make it from natural ingredients, not from a bag from Lidl and this 150 ml thimble? They could have given 200-300.

Fantastic frame. Authentic, delicious and inexpensive.

I think it might be a little strange to sit with people you’ve never met before. But since we don't care about each other, it's nice because we can eat comfortably. The first ramen I tried was the most delicious. The second one was a little salty. I recommend the A series. It was a good meal.

Very good ramen. Maybe. a bit expensive. The vegetarian gyoza was less good.

I used to be the biggest Takumi fan. But this restaurant really disappointed me. Broth, hardly any noodles and almost no filling at all.

I waited 30 minutes for a table and it was totally worth it! Very tasty frames and the edamame balls were also awesome. Yuniq's lemonade was very refreshing and highly recommended. Even though it was very busy, the waitresses were friendly, quick and courteous.

Ramen is very good (Namban Shoyu), but you sit on stools and it's quite cramped.

My favorite ramen place in Berlin!!! Love the noodles straight from Japan! The noukou is my fave and also the tantan!! Great yuzu lemonade

You must wait outside in winter bro..

If I could give 6 stars, I would. Very friendly and humble service. The food was outstandingly delicious. Best ramen chicken noodles I ever had!

Delicious! I was with my children, so… the staff was very attentive.

Great authentic ramen place. Despite the sign you can actually pay with credit card here. Big plus!

Incredibly delicious Ramen with authentic atmosphere and kind service. Loved it every time I came. Especially great is the fact that they have so many vegan options.

The soup was not that good, flavourless and no deep flavour, noodles were not nice, canned corn did not feel authentic. I would not recommend eating here, although the service was very good.

If you’re craving authentic ramen, this restaurant is the closest thing you’ll find in Berlin. The soup is incredibly rich and flavorful, with a depth that speaks to hours of careful preparation. I’ve been here multiple times, and each visit has been consistently excellent. From the perfectly cooked noodles to the fresh, high-quality toppings, everything is spot on. Definitely a place I recommend to anyone who appreciates real ramen!

Decent ramen, nothing special, way better in their OG locations in Düsseldorf. Gyozas are good, staff is friendly. Toilet outside would need a refurbishment and heating

Muy bueno, pero... No me gustaron (2 chicas) en la cocina abierta cocinando con el pelo negro largo no cubierto por una gorra o bufanda. Las dos chicas estaban ayudando al cocinero principal de vez en cuando. Tenían el pelo muy largo. Y también estaban cocinando.

I've been looking for authentic Japanese Ramen in Germany but most of the time I was disappointed until I tried this ramen with chicken broth and deep fried chicken here !! The broth is very rich and thick while not too salty that I can imagine how much ingredients and effort they worked on it !!! The extra order of the deep fried chicken is super tasty with tender meat and crispy skin !!! The price is a bit expensive however I'd definitely recommend it to others and will come again for sure !!!

Perfect. Nice ambience.. good service and the food was excellent. Prices are good too!

Nice little restaurant with delicious food. I've never had ramen before and was absolutely pleasantly surprised. Large portion at a fair price. Tried two different ramen. Both very good. Would come again

Ramen was not good at all. The noodles are like out of instant ramen soup rations (they look and taste like plastic). When requested soy sauce for the Gyoza the waiter said it was not available. Save yourself you money and a stomachache and try other ramens in Berlin.

Good ramen, there are three different broths to choose from. Unfortunately, a soft-boiled egg is an extra topping and not included with the ramen. The gyozas are great, Gyzoa Wednesday is particularly worth it here. The service is good and the food comes quickly. Please note that you may have to wait at the entrance.

I visited Takumi Nine Sapporo after hearing it recommended by several people as the best ramen spot in Berlin. Unfortunately, the ramen didn’t quite live up to the hype or feel truly authentic. We tried two dishes, the Tori Miso Ramen and the Namban Shoyu Ramen. The portions were large, but the broth and meat were overly fatty, making it hard to finish the meal. The atmosphere and service were nice, but when you’re craving ramen, you want something closer to authentic Japanese flavors. It feels like this might be one of those Vietnamese traps trying to pass as Japanese cuisine.

Amazing Ramen with great service!

Food was very tasty. Staff was very friendly. November 2024. Anabela with Leo!! :3

I was eating with my wife at Chausseestraße 124 in Berlin. During the meal I would have given a 3.5 out of 5 star rating, but we paid €41 and didn't even get full. What's much worse is that we felt strange afterwards and had nausea the next day. The couple from the next table got up and left even though both bowls were still half full. That says it all. Speaking German really well wasn't an option either. So if you don't speak good English, you should expect misunderstandings here. Anyone who visits the restaurant for the first time will also notice that the atmosphere is not nice.

Wir haben uns Ramen bestellt. Während des Essens hätte ich noch 3,5 von 5 Sternen gegeben, aber als wir erstens nicht satt geworden sind, trotz 41€ und uns dann auch noch komisch war und einen Tga später sogar Übelkeit auftrat, konnten wir nicht anders als hier ne klare 1 von 5 Sterne Bewertung abzugeben. Das Paar neben uns ist sogar gegangen, obwohl beide Schalen noch halb voll waren. Das sagt alles !!!

Still good. Best Ramen outside of Japan

Super tasty, the price is totally right, the service is very friendly and attentive

i ate ramen for the very first time here and it was very delicious. the prices are acceptable, waiters were very friendly and the ambience was nice as well, though it can get a bit cramped when many people visit. sadly i couldn't finish my bowl because i was so full already, despite not eating anything else that day. i definitely plan on coming here again!

The best Japanese ramen that i have ever tried. 😺

Small place, it also has a patio outside with tables probably for the winter. For Italians, BEWARE IT CLOSES EARLY! Look at the timetable!! We ate a portion of Spinach Gyoza for two, delicious!!! Never found anything like it in Italy, they melted in your mouth. Then we ordered two different Ramen, me with Soya and my partner with Miso, both delicious!! I had them add the egg, spectacular as they do it, a must try!!! One portion of Ramen each is actually more than enough, we weren't able to finish them because it was so much!! Everything was excellent and no digestion problems in the evening, something that happened to us in other Ramen in Italy. If you are in or from Berlin, absolutely an experience or "Experience" as they say now, to try!!!

Good selection of ramen, a bit on the expensive side. Loved the Yuzu lemonade. We went during lunch time and had to wait for about 15 minutes, it gets busier.

Very nice staff and excellent cuisine

The Takumi NINE Sapporo is a rather small, inconspicuous restaurant. Its simple, narrow shop front even made me miss it at first - from the other side of the street, mind you - and walk past it carelessly. When I finally stood in front of it, I was surprised to see that only a glowing "T" marked the spot instead of a large shop sign, although this simple, almost mysterious, theme continued throughout my entire visit. As I went up the stairs and entered the small entrance area, I was revealed to be a narrow, long room with tables for 1-2 people lining the walls (or more if you push the tables together) and a bar at the end and behind it is the kitchen. There is a toilet in the courtyard. After a short wait in the entrance area, I was seated at one of the tables and was even able to choose freely since it wasn't overly full at 1:30 p.m. The menu was brought to me and after careful study I decided on the Vegan Katsu Tan Tan and the Veggie Takoyaki (filled with edamame instead of octopus) as well as a Kirin. While I waited for my food, I sipped my beer with pleasure and looked at the muted tones and slightly worn interior, which stood in a certain contrast to the other Takumis I've been to so far with their well-designed interior. After a short time I was served the Takoyaki (hot and delicious!~) and soon after the Tan Tan (spicy and rich ^u^), neither of which my photos do justice to and which I immediately began to eat greedily. When I finally sat there, full and satisfied, taking the last sips of my beer, everything suddenly seemed to make sense: a small, inconspicuous ramen bar with an unassuming interior, softly playing music and fantastic food = the perfect stop after a long trip or one long day. A magical little place where you can find some cozy peace and quiet in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Berlin. At least at lunchtime, in the evening there's probably hell going on there too, after all it's a Takumi. 😉😂

Really excellent Ramen absolutely delicious,the staff is very kind and professional and the place is very comfortable.

I looked for a Japanese man in Berlin by chance and was absolutely satisfied.

This place serves one of the best vegan ramen I’ve ever had! It was deliciously spicy and perfectly prepared. I highly recommend it, and the staff were excellent too!

Go, don't think about it, the food is very good.

Had the vegan Tan Tan Ramen. It was really great, but they quietly swapped the vegan mince for vegan meatballs, and yes, they sprinkled MSG on top too. Still tastes great, but for the purists who like their ramen without any additional surprises, here's a little warning!

Very tasty, very fast and incredibly friendly service! A little piece of Japan in Berlin. Prices very fair for the location in Berlin-Mitte.

It was the best tan tan ramen I've ever had in Berlin! The rich broth and chewy noodles were impressive. And the broth wasn't salty either, which was really nice.

I think the food there is very tasty and a lot of it looks (and tastes) homemade - as far as that can be judged, of course The atmosphere is rather dark and not particularly cozy. However, I find it original and it didn't bother me

Summary: very good ramen with friendly service and ok price for value in a bit a rundown interior setting, fast food style; 5 stars for the tantanmen, 4 for the rest Best dish: so far tantanmen (I would opt for the one without the fried chicken, just diced chicken). I went to takumi two days in a row to taste two different options. I know the chain from Düsseldorf/Köln Dishes (- negative / = ok / + positive): + tantanmen with fired chicken: very savory broth with perfect tanginess (not too spicy); nice bite of the noddles; they could add a bit more diced chicken - I had the tantanmen with the fried chicken, which I don’t recommend. Event though I ordered it on the side so that it doesn’t get mushy from the soup, it was still mushy and not a pleasure. = noukou tori shio ramen: white broth soup, which was good, but less savory. I prefer the intense flavor of the tantanmen. Again too little diced chicken. = gyoza with chicken: ok but nothing special, not very well-rounded seasoning; a better sauce mix would be nice Service: + friendly service = sometimes a bit disorganized Price: = ok price for value. I think the tantanmen with the fried chicken is too expensive for the quality Atmosphere: = fast food style; seating on stools and benches - a bit rundown and bit dirty My rating system - I focus on the food first and foremost. I aim to be truthful and try not to be biased by friendly service or other circumstances. 5*: excellent - I am rigorous in handing out 5* ratings 4*: good 3*: ok 2*: bad 1*: terrible

The food was very tasty, but unfortunately the service left a lot to be desired. A polite request to close the door because of the cold was only met with a strange look. In addition, the waitress didn't speak any German, which made communication difficult. Of course, it's possible to have a bad day sometimes, and you can ignore that - after all, we're all just human. A friendlier and more attentive service would still significantly improve the overall experience.

Image menu does not give quite the right size of the portion. Tasty date bags with chicken, but 6 is too little. Order 12 for one person.

Great Service and food, sadly just chickenmeat also in my opinion a small portion of meat in the ramenbowl. Also the seating situation is very tight, you sit in my opinion too close to other guests, giving a bit buffet vibe.

Ordered for lunch on a weekday and received quickly and was delicious.

Unfortunately my partner and I was very disappointed with this meal.. There is always queue, and the place is cozy fast ramen atmosphere, and cannot falter the friendly and attentive staff. But the ramen was the worst we have had in Berlin.. We both had the tan tan veggie versions and it was covered in sriracha and the soup tasted high on the sodium and dried herbs etc.. along with frozen veggie meatballs and crumbed sticks of tofu this was highly unappealing and I wouldn’t go back to try more.. I realize my review is written as bad as the meal was.. I don’t do this very often but this sadly tasted like packet ramen and should be avoided. The meal was also one of the highest I’ve paid for ramen in this city and this includes many top chefs ramen. We didn’t take photos because it was so uninspiring. I can’t recommend this place to visit but we can recommend Niko Niko ramen instead.

I don't recommend it. Very weak ramen

Tiny eatery place , cosy and cute atmosphere.food genuine and extra yummy

Es gibt nicht viele Restaurants, von denen ich mir anschließend T-Shirts kaufe. Takumi ist eins davon, ob in Düsseldorf, Köln oder Berlin.

The food is tasty that’s for sure but for that price I would expect to have a bigger portion of chicken.

Good ramen, a bit too much corn ;) Very nice and fast service, the prices are also very reasonable

Great atmosphere and excellent food! Highly recommended!
