Riki Ramen Bā

Riki Ramen Bā is a casual Japanese ramen bar at Kasernenstrasse 2 in Zürich. The menu centres on ramen, presented as a comforting noodle soup made with fresh noodles and broths prepared in-house. Each bowl is finished with selected toppings, keeping the focus on the balance between noodles, broth and additions rather than on an extensive restaurant format.

The kitchen also serves Japanese tapas as a way to begin a meal. These smaller dishes add variety for diners who want something alongside ramen or prefer to share at the table. Dessert takes a playful turn with soft serve and a choice of toppings that can vary according to the day. Together, the menu gives the venue a straightforward structure: small plates to start, ramen as the main event and soft serve to finish.

Riki Ramen Bā has an informal, friendly character shaped around the social side of ramen. The venue welcomes a broad range of diners and encourages a relaxed approach to the meal, including the traditional enjoyment of slurping noodles. Its style suits casual lunches, uncomplicated dinners and gatherings where conversation can sit alongside shared tapas and bowls of soup.

There is no reservation system. Seating is available to walk-in guests on a first-come, first-served basis, so the format is best suited to diners who can arrive without a fixed table booking. The walk-in policy also contributes to the bar's easygoing feel, while the food remains centred on daily preparation and careful assembly.

Riki Ramen Bā suits ramen fans, diners looking for a casual Japanese meal and groups interested in combining individual noodle bowls with smaller plates. The menu's clear focus makes it easy to understand the type of meal on offer, while the tapas and soft serve provide alternatives around the main ramen experience. For a relaxed Japanese meal in Zürich, the venue keeps the setting and cooking focused on fresh noodles, broths and generous comfort-food appeal.
