• Ramen • Cardiff
Booked 21 times today
Matsudai Ramen was Wales' first standalone ramen shop — and is still the only Welsh one. Since 2022, Matsudai has earned a devoted following for doing one thing properly: ramen, made in micro batches with Japanese technique and Welsh ingredients. No corners cut. Voted Cardiff's best restaurant by Mob, listed in the Good Food Guide, and home to what the Standard calls "some of the best ramen anywhere in the UK." "Inventive, geeky and superb." — Jay Rayner, The Observer. "Probably the best ramen in the whole UK." — Tim Anderson, Masterchef winner & ramen author. "A ramen to remember." — Tom Parker Bowles. Founded by self-confessed ramen geek, James Chant, Matsudai remains a labour of love — an exercise in taking things too far.
