Tokyo Shokudo has carved out a distinctive niche in Singapore's competitive dining scene by offering authentic Japanese cuisine with full halal certification, making genuine Japanese flavors accessible to Muslim diners. Since its establishment in 2017, this restaurant chain has expanded to multiple prime locations including Westgate, City Square Mall, and AMK Hub, each serving as a gateway to traditional Japanese culinary experiences.
The comprehensive menu showcases the depth of Japanese cuisine, from soul-warming ramen varieties including their signature Chicken Cha Shu Black Mayu Ramen and fiery Duck Spicy Ramen, to traditional donburi bowls and tempura sets. Their Asakusa Tendon represents the perfect marriage of crispy tempura and fluffy rice, while the diverse ramen selection caters to different spice tolerances and flavor preferences.
What distinguishes Tokyo Shokudo is their unwavering commitment to authenticity while maintaining halal standards. The restaurant operates with the precision and attention to detail that Japanese cuisine demands, ensuring each bowl of ramen achieves the perfect balance of flavors. With operating hours from noon to 9:30PM daily and reasonable pricing ranging from $9.90 to $18.90, Tokyo Shokudo makes authentic Japanese dining both accessible and affordable for all Singaporeans.
1500 the restaurant was empty . Ordered their signature spicy don. No other interaction from the Chi
At 3 PM, the restaurant was empty. I ordered their signature spicy don. The Chinese waitress offered no interaction other than pointing me to a table. Then, the crockery was placed far away from me. Next came the tea. All items were placed abruptly and she left. Then came the don and a side plate. The side plate was thrown onto my table and was still spinning when the waitress walked off – very skillful indeed! I wonder if I interrupted her after her lunch break or if I offended her somehow without realizing. The don came with very little rice, but I guess that's to make space for all the tempura items. The batter didn't taste nice and wasn't crispy. It wasn't spicy at all, even though I selected spicy. Overall, not recommended. Why pay for lousy food and service?

Felt scammed by the menu. It stated free-flow noodles with any ramen set purchased, and also an additional $1 for one plate of meat top-up for the Sukiya beef set. The waiter told us we had already ordered three plates from the menu and no more, and that we had topped up noodles once already, so no more. We purposely went through the menu to check for any T&Cs, but there weren't any. Please do something.

Visited the place with family. We wanted to order at the counter but were rejected. The staff insisted we order online, even though there is an option to order at the counter. This is my second time with the restaurant, and the service is still not up to par. They seem to be understaffed, with only one person serving outside the kitchen.

Food looks good so we try, but tasted too normal. Won’t return again.
Tempura tasted better than ram
The food looked good, so we tried it, but it tasted too normal. We won't return again. The tempura tasted better than the ramen. The chicken char siew tom yam was bad.

First time here. Ordered two tendon sets and two different ramen bowls. The Char Siew in the ramen was small, unlike in real Japanese restaurants. In fact, it seemed to be made of chicken; they don't appear to serve pork. The tendons were fried nicely, but the taste of the tempura could be better. It seemed there were no tea refills as we didn't see the staff refilling. A disappointment was that they didn't have wasabi, which should be a must in any Japanese food. There were no other condiments like chili flakes. Sauce had to be asked for. The cutlery was miserably served. They should have a rectangular box to put the cutlery in. We had to ask for an empty dish to hold the tempura so we could dig into the rice. Not worth the 10% service charge. Price-wise, it's reasonable.

Quiet atmosphere, not tasteful and not worth the price. Update: Recently revisited this noodle shop and decided to try their minced meat dry noodle instead of the soup version. And wow—what a difference! The dry version turned out to be a much better experience.

Food was served fast and warm even during lunch peak hour. We enjoyed our Tempura rice set and Beef Gyu Don. They offer free membership, which earns you 10% off your sub-total amount.

Nice. We enjoyed our lunch, especially the chicken thigh noodle, which is a specialty. It was the first time I still had meat leftover after finishing my noodles. Usually, ramen has a small sprinkling of meat, like an afterthought. This was good. We arrived at 11:40 am before the lunch crowd on a Saturday. Will definitely be back.

Standardized taste throughout other outlets, including this.
Let's dive in!
Food:
Taste is standardized across all other outlets. Good, yummy, and not slow.
Service:
Staff seems to be busy, but unfortunately, we can't give a 5-star rating because the smiles and service weren't up to par with others. However, 4 stars is still good, yeah.
Atmosphere:
Clean and the layout seems similar to other outlets too. But this place is at one corner, so it feels a bit out of the way. Well, this place is new, so maybe it will take time to garner traffic, yeah.
Cheers!!
