Ramen, perfect for rainy days or whenever you’re missing Japan, ramen is comfort food at its best. There’s nothing quite like sipping on a hot bowl of noodles after a long day.
We have compiled a list of 10 of the best ramen shops in Petaling Jaya where you can try some of Japan’s best ramen smell.
Menya Shi-Shi Do

Menya Shi Shi Do almost always tops the list when it comes to recommending good ramen in the Klang Valley. Previously opened in Jaya One, now they have moved to a new location, the store is bigger, the decor is beautiful, and the noodles are still full of flavor and punch!
Address: 2, Jalan 51a/225, Seksyen 51a, 46200 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Hours: 11:00am – 3:00pm, 5:00pm – 9:30pm
Menya Musashi 麵屋武藏

Menya Musashi is a go-to spot for anyone who has a hankering for ramen. The broth is fragrant and full of flavour. Plus, you get to select from one of its flavoured oils, which adds to the soups’ tastiness.
The restaurants can rack up quite a queue, so I’d suggest visiting them at non-peak hours if you’re not in the mood to wait.
Address: LG-606 Lower Ground Floor One Utama Shopping Centre Jaya, 1, Lebuh Bandar Utama, Bandar Utama, 47800 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Hours: Daily 11:00am – 10:00pm
Robataya Ramen & Donburi

Robatayaki (炉端焼き, literally “fireside-cooking”), refers to a method of cooking in which premium pieces of meat or seafood are cooked at varying speeds over hot charcoal. Robatayaki originates from a centuries-old country style of cooking by northern Japanese at home around a communal hearth (irori). This method of grilling meat or seafood on an “irori” has been incorporated into many restaurants in the northen region of Japan and is called Robatayaki.
Address: 9, Jalan SS2/75, SS 2, 47300 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Hours: Daily 12:00pm – 12:00am
IPPUDO

What makes ramen great isn’t just the broth but the quality of the noodles, which is what IPPUDO gets just right.

Ramen Bar Shi Shi Do

Also by the folks behind Menya Shi-Shi Do, Ramen Bar Shi Shi Do is a new kid in town, having just opened its doors in Gasket Alley, PJ this month! This new eatery has a vibe that’s much different from the humble restaurant in Jaya One – meticulously designed and decorated, you’ll feel as if you’re stepping into an authentic izakaya (informal Japanese bar) in Japan with the restaurant’s quaint, retro vibe.

Mitsuyado Seimen 三ツ矢堂製麺

Menya Hanabi 麺屋はなび

Unlike the typical broth-based ramens, Menya Hanabi has particularly raved for its mazesoba (dry ramen). One reviewer said in the Malaysian context, it can be likened to something similar to chili pan mee but it’s less coarse.
