Been here for lunch a few times - never disappointed! Seafood ramen is amazingly delicious and the noodles are next level! Definitely a go to for me!
For a quick ramen fix, I go to Little Ramen Bar. This place serves consistent authentic ramen and always long queue during peak lunch times.
🔆LOCATION🔆
Little Ramen Bar is situated on Little Bourke Street, right near the corner of Elizabeth Street, short walk from H&M/Bourke Street Mall.The place is quite small and is typical layout as you would see in Japan hence why the shop is called “Little Ramen Bar”.
The queue does somewhat move fast it’s a place where you just eat and go as you cant really hang around too long to chat and you do get ushered by the staff once you’ve finished your meal.
🔆SERVICE🔆
Staff is super quick and prompt service. From ordering, to table service to clearing tables. They are well trained especially when it gets really busy.

🔆VERDICT🔆
I normally order the classic ramen, as it tastes good.
The gyoza were good size and fried really nicely, however it was quite oily. It would have been ideal if they soaked some of the oil off first before serving.
My friend’s ramen was really nice too but she requested without egg as she didn’t want to be too full.
The seaweed salad was average, nothing really special.
Ordered Chasu Tamago and some Kimchi. It was good and the serving was just right. A bit weirded out though by the smell of the ramen. The smell was a bit fishy once the ramen wasn't hot anymore.
