Its not too bad for me, I ate there a few times. The Gyoza is not too bad but the ramen’s mileage may vary for some, but it does make a helluva lot of money from its location (next to an anime store and arcade and theatre, very good for business)

LOL… I’m forever connected to Kawawa… Well, it’s strange that Kawawa Japanese restaurant is not connect to Aji Taro since their menu states it right at the bottom. Not sure why then. Also, with JuleeLee’s post, it proves that personal tastes differ from person to person.

JuleeLee, welcome! Taisho was the all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant that was replaced by Kawawa Japanese. I haven't been there nor I am enticed to go there. As a result, I am not sure how it would related to my post! But, for thoughts about Kawawa Japanese, I will defer it to Sherman who actually went there. Have fun!

i went there just yesterday with my boyfriend! the service was excellent servers were very friendly! we had a nice chat with the server about the restaurant since it was taisho japanese restaurant before and the owner is not the same as aji taro or taisho. People just assume without asking! It’s a whole new restaurant! Well IMO the ramen was super yummy, i am from japan in vancouver learning english for about two years now! the ramen was very cheap less than $10. the broth was tasty reminded me of a usual ramen shop back in japan… i am going back there soon! and the place is convenient!

John T, welcome! If your previous experience with ramen has been only one place and/or the pre-packaged ones, chances are, Kawawa Ramen makes a decent ramen. However, the problem is that here in Vancouver there are way better ones that put it in the lower ranks. Next time you are in Vancouver, go to the corner of Robson and Denman (in Downtown Vancouver), as suggested in my post. There you will find three (and soon a fourth) ramen shops that makes way better ramen than Kawawa.

i went here with my girlfriend last year in october. the ramen was excelent imo. im from spokane wa and most of the places that serve ramen.. well there is only one and its korean. dont get me wrong korean ramen is intresting and stuff. but japanese style ramen is what i think is really good. i had the miso ramen and to me it was amazing the pork stuff inisde was really tender and delicious. i dont know why you are saying the food sucked. for me it was amazing the portions where huge and the watresses where friendly.

LotusRapper, welcome! I guess you might get a better deal if you just walk to Crystal Mall, eh?

Totally agree with you. My experience was the same. I wouldn’t go back.
