Heads up, Ultraman fans! This ramen shop in Tangerang boasts incredible retro decor, making it a super photogenic spot for anyone who loves the classic hero. While the vibe is a major draw, this review warns that the ramen itself might disappoint. The food is described as mediocre with small portions and a high price tag. The article suggests visiting for the nostalgic atmosphere and photos, but serious ramen lovers should manage their expectations before going.
Girls, the hype from Tangerang has finally reached this Ultramen Ramen! I was just walking to the entrance of Summarecon Mall and it totally caught my eye. The red and green colors are so eye-catching, and this retro anime style, who can resist it! It feels like I was instantly transported back to the summer holidays of my childhood, watching Ultraman. Just for the decor alone, I had to go in and check it out for you all!
The inside was even more anjay! The walls are covered with Ultraman posters and scenes, it feels like the owner moved their entire childhood memories in here[1]. The vibe is maxed out, and it's super photogenic. We ordered their supposed best seller, the Truffle Ramen[2], but honestly, I was stunned after the first sip of the broth… Where's the truffle flavor? It tastes more like cream of mushroom soup! The noodles were also a bit overcooked and mushy[3]. My friend ordered the dry noodles, and he complained that it tasted like a bland Indomie… Anjay!
Seriously, this place has a 4.8 rating on Google, but the reviews are really polarized. Personally, I feel like it's more of a "vibe-focused" restaurant. As for the taste, well... it's very "convenient." And the portions are really mini, feels like hell for big eaters and heaven for a kid's meal[4]. A casual meal for two cost almost 200,000 IDR, so the value for money isn't great. The service is also a matter of luck. During peak hours, the food comes out super slow, and you have to shout to get a waiter's attention[5].
