Good, and well liked locally

63/100

Why it is our number one: Go here for the novelty of the Matcha Ramen, which surprisingly works. It's a trendy, urban spot perfect for those who want to try something experimental in the heart of the city.

Popular in Kuala Lumpur, but not for ramen

People post about these places plenty. What they post about is not ramen, so they are not ranked above, and we would rather say that than pad the list.

How we rank

1Every place, then only the right onesEverywhere serving ramen in Kuala Lumpur proper. Anything in a neighbouring area filed under the same name is dropped.
2We read what people posted12 posts on TikTok and YouTube, including what is said out loud in the videos and what the comments say underneath.
3Ranked on that, not on starsOur judgement decides what each place is for. The Vie Score is built only from what people who ate there said.

Researched and written by the Vie food desk. Assembled by our own research pipeline from public posts, every one of them named and linked above, and published under Vie's editorial judgement. No placement in this guide was paid for.

Google stars are not part of it, on purpose: everyone already has those. Too thin to judge means no score at all, which is why 2 of 6 places here carry one. Nothing in this guide is paid for.
