Taiga Noodles in Kanazawa

Worth the wait for some authentic and delicious ramen. The staff are very nice too and helpful, English menu is available. The oyster ramen was very good with a subtle flavour and the tsukemen I had was really excellent - warm noodles, pork, egg and bamboo on the side with a thick miso ramen dipping broth. Would definitely recommend!

Best ramen in Kanazawa. We even bought the pack ramen to take home.

I'm pretty sure it's the best Ramen I have ever had.Simply amazing.

Arrived around 5:30 and there was already a line of about ~10 min wait. It was worth it. This was in the top 2 ramen we had in Japan. Prices are extremely reasonable and the broth was delicious. I highly recommend the red miso.kanpai

good food and great service

best ramen I have ever had in my entire life. the broth was very rich, the ramen texture was perfect. 10/10

great taste ramen

I was queuing and it was at least 20 minutes before closing, nobody was behind me. The guy came out and let everyone else in except for me. I felt that was proper unfair and I got the feeling the it was because I'm not Asian, this people treat you different. I found it very racist!

The red miso ramen is insane!!!

Wonderful ramen in town. Very authentic and delicious. The shop also very spacious and the staff super good. The services also very fast. Must eat here in future.

The Black Miso Ramen has squid ink inside. This is really special and tasty. The Yuzu Cider is good too.

The ramen broths are nice, i recommend the spicy one, its not that spicy. The pork slice is quite thick not really my 1st preference but still okay for me. Price wise standard, not as expensive as ichiran.

Be ready to wait in queue as the place is quite popular among the locals. The ramens however are really worth the wait and they are not pricey.

Hands down, this is the best ramen we've had when we were in Japan. The combination of yuzu orange, thick pork slices, and the miso soup are divine. The service was really good too. We had long queue line outside (as expected as it was dinner time) and it was raining, but then the young lady inside lent us their umbrella. How sweet and considerate of her. Thank you :)

One of the best ramen I had JapanWe were staying in the hotel across the street and had no idea about this place. There were two reasons we've decided to try it1) The hotel was pretty lame (you can see the review in my profile)2) There was always a line in this place, and you learn pretty quickly that if you a line of locals, probably there is a good reason for it. And, boy was #2 correct. Rich taste, great noodles, absolutely delicious ramen. No matter what you pick, it's incredible. Describing a delicious meal over text is hard. Just go there. Be ready to wait in line approx 40-50 min.

Love their tsukemen, although the most populer dish here is their black ramen. My GF really loves their black ramen. The part that i love the most is it’s cha shu, it doesn’t look good at first because there’s some raw parts but after you dip it to it’s broth and chew it famn that’s the best cha shu i’ve ever taste

A small eatery that sits a around 10 people. That's probably the reason for the long queue. The ramen is delicious.

Ramen is good, no matter miso ramen or black ramen, although the soup is quite of thick and salty. In addition, you should have some patience because you may line up and wait for at least 30 minutes at the peak of dinning time.

Great ramen! I’ve lived in Japan for almost 30 years and eaten thousands of bowls of ramen and this is near the top of the list. Try and arrive 15 mins before lunch or dinner opening or you’ll be waiting in line for a while.

As the internet say, their miso is legendary, u should try it the miso ramen and if u re fan of spicy can choose the spicy ramen like i ate. They also give a fruit juice to compansate the salty miso soup and bubble gum for refreshing your mouth

Delicious ramen but need to queue to be seated.....must try..😋

We ordered in the lineup outside and had our meal quickly after sitting down.

A good change of flavour if you’re used to Tonkotsu Ramen. Flavourful soup, delicious meat and the yuzu adds a nice touch.

Good taste and service.miso ramen is popular here but spicy ramen is also great.It is a large egg noodle and have a texture and quite sticky.I recommend this restuarant.

Miso soup noodle. popular with local people.

I was in the que like 20 minutes before closing time and nobody was after me but they didn't want to let me in just because I'm not Asian, this is very racist! I understand about the closing time but literally there was nobody else after me so they just didn't let me in because of it!

Black Miso ramen was very tasty. High quality of noodles. Definetly worth a try

Cozy local place, we were the only foreigners. Great value for the price. If you want to taste something than regular ramen, go for Tsukemen or Squid Ink ramen. English menu available. Cheerful staff.

Great ramen and tsukemen! We tried the black and the red varieties. Both excellent, though personally I found the "red" not to be very spicy at all. The spice used in it is a bit overpowering, rather than adding heat. I would simply recommend the classic miso or the one with squid ink. Their menu was updated with slightly higher prices compared to what I found here beforehand, but it's still laughably cheap for a full meal.

Good tasting ramen, although the noodles were too thick and hard for my liking. Soup is a little salty at least for me. The pork comes with a smoked flavour, different from the other ramen I have tried. Generally a good bowl of ramen.

Best miso ramen I've ever had, bar none. Come early to avoid the queue as there is limited seats

Cheap and amazing. Miso super was great and very very tasty. A highlight of ramen in my Japan trip. Beer was well priced as well.Highly recommend eating here as it's close to the station. Lots of locals which is a great sign.Staff were friendly as well. English menu and look at the pics for entrance.

I'm from Vancouver, and we're pretty spoiled when it comes to good ramen, but this was easily one of my top places for miso ramen. It's certainly earned its reputation. We got there at around 6pm on a Friday evening and were seated right away. The broth was very rich and the noodles were firm. The yuzu flakes on top were a nice touch as well. Highly recommended!

One of those places who will eventually get a michelin star, and totally earned it

Best black miso I have ever ate!

- Update - Had their black (squid ink) ramen but seems like their Tsukemen trumps their soup noodles...Nothing to fault on their Tsukemen style ramen - miso dipping sauce was intensely rich, noodles were soft yet chewy, pork slices were tender & flavourful!

Lifesaver on a busy weekend night. just queue at the door it moves pretty quickly

Good broth. I don't recommend the black miso, though -- it's just the regular miso with squid ink.

I enjoyed the squid ink broth, it was hot and full of umami taste but the noodels were a bit hard and it was slightly too salty.My wife was much more critic concerning the meat comlaining it came too cold and that we waited some time for the serving to come out.overall ok

Their miso ramen is so good! Best food to eat during rainy days. No need to add condiments because the base is so rich and tasty. I recommend the Red Miso Ramen who loves the kick of spicy foods. I would definitely come back to Kanazawa city when I am craving for some good ramen. ❤

Small outlet with 13 seats. Waited for ard 15min outside the shop. Didn't take too long for the ramen to arrive once we were allocated the seat. Tried all 3 soup base. The ramen and broth is good. Comparable to some of the famous brand in my opinion. Some might find the meat slightly tough to Chew. I will come back again.

The red miso ramen is amazing so tasty 😱😋Don't be afraid to wait some time in the queue.Most of the customers are locals.

One of the best places for miso ramen. Tried the black miso ramen (squid ink with miso) and red miso ramen (fried chili paste with miso). Both are spectacular especially the red miso which is definitely a great winter warmer. Only have 13 seats in the shop. We waited around 40 minutes outside with around 20 pax in front of us queuing. Definitely a must-go if you are in the area.

Very delicious.I don’t like miso ramen, but this one is amazing! Love it.100% recommended!!!

best ramen broth.

Somewhat hidden gem for amazing ramen. 3 types of ramen with 2 variants each...words can't describe how delicious they are. Recommend

Miso ramen is fantastic! Get the extra toppings which include an egg, extra meat, and extra menma. The meat is very thick and has beautiful smoky flavor. The miso tsuke-men comes with spectacular noodles but the broth is a little clumpy. Make sure to get the Kanazawa Yuzu soda!!!!!

Red and black miso 💯😩🤘

I’ve had some amazing Tonkotsu, Soy-sauce, salt, Baitan, seafood broth ramen where I would give five stars throughout the cities in japan, but not miso. But this place was unanimous. Masterfully balanced bowl with great service.

Superbly done Ramen! Never had I imagine that miso would go well with squid ink.
