As The Ramen Rater, I've reviewed thousands of instant noodles from around the world. I've also checked out a lot of subscription boxes over the years. These are definitely my favorite - lots of great varieties I've never tried before, arriving in perfect condition, and an infosheet that's second to none. Really great product I highly recommend to all noodle enthusiasts.
Well this was the first time I ordered here. I had no expectations of what I would receive, but man, it was delivered quickly. Japan ---> Netherlands within a week. The content was also more than I expected. The first one has now arrived and the taste is perfect.
Unique flavors! I am happy with the subscription! I would continue subscribing it for sure!
This is my 2nd box from Nakama Noodles. I have to say I am slurping it up quicker than the last box. I love the variety. At first I didn’t like the fact you didn’t receive all your ramen in bowls. I am lazy when it comes to ramen. But I quickly realized that the ramen in the packages have been some of my favorite and not just from Nakama Noodles, from Zenpop box too. I guess the packaged ramen are not just a cheap filler. Those noodles were delicious!
If there is anything that would improve your box I would include two large noodle dishes a month. That way it is more like a meal size, and not a snack size for some of the bowls. That was one thing I could count on from Zenpop. They had 2 large noodle bowls in every box. Lastly, I would add on a section for customers that would give them an option select past ramen, or ramen toppers. Japan crate included different ramen toppers in their noodle boxes. It gave a diverse cultural experience to tasting the regional ramen of Japan.
Great variety of noodles. I love that they have a well thought out theme every month. You get different flavors and textures of soups and noodles. Zenpop was closing and I didn’t know what I was going to do about getting my Japanese ramen. So far I like what I have tried from Nakama Noodles.
I previously bought from this company before and compared to other ramen subscriptions, this one is the best for value and variety. Loved the selection. Also came quickly in the mail.
Costumer service has been 11/10 quality. Cannot fault it in the slightest. Well done Nakama Noodles and I hope the best for success. :) Time to slurp down some yummy noodles!
I was thrilled with my box. It was my first box and it exceeded all expectations. The guide for this month's selections was far more informative and detailed than I expected, and it made enjoying the noodles convenient and fun. I'm so glad I subscribed and looking forward to the new boxes.
Why no gift for this time?
Hi there, thank you for your valued feedback! Each Nakama Noodles box contains a minimum of 8 varieties of noodles. We apologize if you were disappointed not to receive a complimentary gift in your last order. Please understand that we do not promise to include an extra gift in every box; this allows us to focus on providing a wider selection of delicious noodles! If a free gift is included in a specific box, it will be clearly stated on the product page. We hope that this helps add some clarity about our noodle box!
This is my second month in a row ordering and I love it. Getting product I could never get locally is awesome and a great treat. If you are on the fence about ordering the first time just do it!
I always wanted to order one of these types of products before and finally pulled the trigger with the Be My Noodletine box. I am loving all the noodles I would never to be able to get in my part of Canada. I might be hooked.
A great selection of noodles giving you a chance to try some new varieties
All were very tasty and I'm looking forward to my next box
I enjoyed the different varieties of noodles. Limited editions are always fun and most of these are hard to find outside of Japan. Arrived promptly too.
I loved how there were so many different types of ramen with a lot of unique flavors. They even had a little dragon figure for this month which was a nice touch. I highly recommend it!
