Akedo Showten Ramen + Gyoza Langley [Review]

Akedo Showten Ramen is of the best restaurants in Langley serving a simple menu of ramen and gyoza at reasonable prices.

They offer six choices of ramen (Original; Ajitama; Meat Lovers; Oyako; Cheeese; and Veggie) with broth options of White (salt based flavour); Black (soy based flavour with dark garlic sauce on top); and Red (miso based stock).

Their broth is prepared from 100% pure chicken, vegetables, and spices and stewed over a long period to attain a creamy texture.

Their noodles are prepared using 100% Canadian whole grain flour with no eggs.

Not to be missed are their house-made gyoza which can be prepared as pan-fried, deep-fried or boiled.

Furthermore, their food is MSG free!

We got their Original Ramen (BBQ Chicken Chashu, Chinese Greens and Green Onions) and the Veggie Ramen (Cabbage, Sugar Snap, Chinese greens, Green Onions, Carrot). The broths were nicely creamy and very drinkable without feeling thirsty afterwards.

The housemade gyoza was also delicious being crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside.

It’s a small restaurant with minimalist design. The staff are friendly and service was great!

Prices are reasonable too with the Original bowl starting at $12 and the most expensive one being the Oyako at $17. I’ve been paying for a lot of expensive ramen in Downtown Vancouver!

Be prepared to wait during busy meal times. They do take a wait-list and manage accordingly.

Akedo Showten is located at 20218 Fraser Hwy #102, Langley, BC. They have another location in New Westminster.
