"We visited Koto Restaurant on North Parade for Sunday lunch for the first time, and we wish we had tried it sooner. The ramen broth was incredibly delicious, with a gentleman next to us remarking that it tasted just like what he had in Japan. The menu was straightforward and easy to order from, with both the broth and noodles being homemade and preservative-free. The food was healthy, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The only downside was that they do not take reservations, so there may be a wait. Overall, I would rate the food at Koto Restaurant as some of the best in Oxford."

The shio ramen at this restaurant is absolutely delicious. It tastes just like authentic ramen from Japan. The restaurant proudly makes their own noodles, setting them apart from other ramen places in London.

The restaurant is very pricey, with very small portions of food that lacked any special taste. I had to wait for a long time to pick up my takeout order and in the end, they didn't even have all the items I ordered because they ran out of rice.

This Japanese restaurant just opened on North Parade. We didn't know what to expect, but this place was great!! My boyfriend and I both had the paitan ramen which was pretty much amazing; the menu said that they make their noodles in house. The restaurant itself was sunny, clean, and welcoming. We will definitely be back and look forward to trying their other dishes. View menu

Koto's ramen is outstanding nothing like the typical, flavourless soup one gets in UK chains. The shoyu at Koto has a rich, slow-brewed stock, creamy soft boiled egg, tender chashu pork, pickled ginger, and a strip of nori, thoughtfully arranged as you'd get in Tokyo. The room has a spare elegance with plenty of light from huge windows, a wood bar, stylish lamps and a friendly staff. The menu is limited now but in November will expand with the arrival of their Japanese chef. No need to wait until then, though, the lunch is already great!
