Japanese
The Japanese film Tampopo was marketed as the world’s first “ramen western”. It’s the story of two truck drivers, Goro & Gun, who use their culinary expertise to change the fate of a struggling noodle shop. Those two characters' passion for noodle-making lives on at Calgary’s 150-seat noodle bar — led by executive chefs Ryusuke Araki & Tomo Mitsuno. Located on Stephen Avenue, upstairs on the Plus 15 level, the restaurant melds modern art graphics with distinctive hardwood and right angles of Japanese decor. Tuck into a steaming bowl of ramen with our house-made noodles, made even better with an aji-tama egg. Or depart from noodle fare with house specialities like tuna poke or pork steam buns. Our menu boasts a variety of vegetarian, gluten, and dairy-free options. Whenever possible, dishes are prepared using wild fish instead of farmed. Complete your meal with one of 25 sakes from Goro & Gun’s curated selection from Amanda Jansen.

    Hello, I have not been to your restaurant for a while. I had made a reservation, and my table was ready when I arrived. We were quickly seated and had a polite server. Although I did not enjoy the outside of the restaurant ambiance as much as the inside, it was quieter (pro and con). I did not give a good rating for the food this time as I tried the week festival Ramen, and my brought was not hot enough to cook the beef. I tried to eat it raw, but I could not eat it; it did not taste good. Others at the table with Ramen also commented that their food was not warm. I have the calamari and thought they were to breaded and greasy. The green tea was good, but you got to change the cups. I burnt my hand. Regards

    Lamb ramen was fantastic, the service great. The only downside was being seated on the “patio” outside the restaurant with all the +15 pedestrians walking close to our table….a bit annoying because everyone was gawking at our food!!🤣

    I was disappointed. Food would have been probably good if the pork I had was BBQ pork, as mentioned on the menu and the noodles properly cooked. Not planning to go back. The waiter was nice and helpful but refilled up our glasses when we paid the bill.

    Seating on the +15 patio is good people watching but noisy. The $3 egg I had added to my ramen was cold. Ramen and broth were tasty. Service was sufficient. $22 for ramen is too expensive. I don’t expect that I’ll be back.

    My wife and I did date night last night and we made it there for happy hour. We ordered lots of their appetizers and their Ramen and everything was fantastic. Their food was very fresh and tasty. We both really enjoyed the tuna Tataki and the chicken teriyaki. Their sushi was very fresh and tasty. My Their sushi was very fresh and tasty. My wife really loved the Ramen, especially the broth less Ramen. It was a very nice experience and the service was excellent. We would definitely recommend.

    Goro & Gun used to be my lunch go to. I don’t eat fish so the Bento Box was an amazing choice. I was disappointed to see it is no longer available which limits the options for someone that can’t eat fish. There used to be a spicy peanut sauce which they also no longer make. The ramen is very good, but not my thing so I’m not sure if I’ll be back.

    Skip the beef tataki. Not very flavourful. The salmon and tuna sashimi is tasty but not filling. The various rolls had a strange aftertaste. We paid over $200 and still left somewhat hungry. Prices tend to be high and it takes quite a few dishes to get the equivalent amount of food for dinner.
