The smart-ish fit-out reflects the 'bar' more than the 'noodle' part of Ichiraku's name, and is the drawcard that lures groups of student types. But the sparse alcohol menu looks more like an afterthought, so swanky club it ain't. Sashimi is skilfully prepared and portions - particularly the bento boxes and salads - are generous. If you like your dressings sweet and ramen soup (pork and chicken options) on the light side, you've come to the right place. Pair your ramen topped with crisp karaage chicken with complimentary tea and you'll remain well within budget.
