About Shoryu Ramen Manchester
Ramen in Manchester rarely hits this hard. Shoryu's tonkotsu is the draw — a broth that earns its reputation — and the takoyaki and chicken katsu curry ramen keep people coming back for more than one visit. Staff are the kind of welcoming that feels genuine rather than trained: Erika gets named in reviews, which says something. The room is understated, the food does the talking, and the kitchen turns tables quickly enough that the Northern Quarter pace suits it perfectly.
