Kibou-ken Japanese restaurant exceeded my expectations! The ramen was deliciously flavorful, and the fried rice was spot-on. Overall, a fantastic dining experience. Highly recommend trying it out!

Love the ramen. The soup is well done and the noodles is nice. Eggs are almost perfect but already much better than most of what I tried in JB. Our meal came in a set with choices. I like the Gyoza which is lightly fried but the favour is.

Tonkatsu ramen here is absolutely delicious — rich, flavourful broth and perfectly cooked noodles. This shop has been around for many years, and the quality has always been consistent.

Surprisingly good! The charsiu is more Chinese style than Japanese but still good. Side dishes are worth the trouble too, boiled dumplings and cold chicken. RM40 for a bowl of ramen (good portion), side dish and tea for lunch, super reasonable. Quick service too.
