Chiikawa Debuts First Overseas Ramen Restaurant in Mong Kok

After the success of its pop-up store at Harbour City last April and the popularity of its ongoing exhibition at K11 MUSEA, the beloved Japanese character Chiikawa is opening a themed ramen restaurant in Mong Kok!
Inspired by the popular “Ro” series ramen menu featured in the “CHIIKAWA” manga, Chiikawa Ramen Buta Hong Kong blends the whimsical charm of the Japanese comics with authentic Japanese flavors. Located in Langham Place, Mong Kong, the restaurant will officially open its doors on Aug. 16, marking its very first overseas branch.


The Hong Kong branch aims to provide an unparalleled character-themed dining experience for fans and ramen lovers alike, making them feel as if they’ve stepped into the whimsical world of the manga. Guests will be welcomed by life-sized sculptures of the main characters, Chiikawa, Hachiware, and Usagi, and will surely be captivated by the adorable character illustrations and decorations around the dining space.
But more than the charming venue and atmosphere, the restaurant guarantees an authentic Japanese ramen experience, serving their signature ramen made with ingredients and broth imported directly from Japan! Guests can choose from three ramen sizes: the mini Chiikawa (HK$115),the small Hachiware (HK$135), and the big Usagi (HK$150). Each ramen bowl is topped with a cute character fish cake and comes with a complimentary character-themed sticker.
Drinks will also be available and served in CHIIKAWA-themed containers that customers can take home as souvenirs. Each beverage is priced between HK$38 to HK$68 and comes with a collectible character-themed transparent card.
Speaking of souvenirs, Chiikawa Ramen Buta Hong Kong will also launch a series of merchandise, ranging from ramen bowls, beer glasses, water glasses, face towels, wristbands, T-shirts, logo stickers, ramen spoons, and melamine plates.


The Chiikawa Ramen Buta was developed by Japan’s PARCO and first launched in March 2024 at Nagoya PARCO. It quickly became a hit among locals, expanding to four other PARCO branches across the country, including Osaka Shinsaibashi, Hiroshima, and Tokyo Ikebukuro. The Hong Kong branch will be hosted by Flames Concepts and will not only stand as the first overseas branch but also the biggest one to date, with over 87 seats.
Whether you're a fan of CHIIKAWA or a ramen lover, you can't miss this dreamy experience! Bookings are patterned after Japan’s “reservation operation model” and will be done in rounds via KKDAY. Dates and opening times will be announced on Flames Concepts’ social media pages and KKDAY’s event page. Apart from selecting a time slot, each guest is also required to pre-purchase a bottle of Black Oolong Tea (HK$38) as a deposit, which will be distributed on the day of visit.
Bookings are now open with the next round of early bird dates opening on Sept. 1. You can book your slots here.
