Food was disappointing. Had the Yuzu Tsukemen, noodles and toppings were fine, but the dipping sauce was horrible. Tastes plainly salty with overpowering yuzu that did not compliment at all.
Tsukemen is supposed to be a simple yet fulfilling dish, but they executed it so horribly. Sauce had no delicate complexities in it, and their ajitama tastes like it was only marinated in soy and nothing else. Definitely not worth my $19

Interesting ramen taste with their yuzu flavour. Affordable set menu. Ample seating.

The lunch set comes with noodle, sides and drink. Price seems before tax etc. Taste wise, the spicy tsukumen is well made with nice sauce at the side. Meat is quite tender. Overall good nice taste. Sides dumpling is okay. Tried this few times and taste is still consistent.

Got the spicy yuzu tsukmen. Definitely unique flavour, the toppings that came along complimented it well, and worth its price.

Afuri in Japan is one of my favourite places of all time. Sadly the shio ramen I had here had no flavour whatsoever.
Had their tsukemen here previously and it was decent.
Staff there were polite and friendly.

Taste of Ramen it was so so, the broth is not rich enough. Could have little improvement. Overall service is good, we can dine in without waiting that is superb! Atmosphere is good too. Unfortunately fried chicken with the sauce taste is not good at all.

Poor value and rude waitress.
I didn't mind the flavours. We had two of the No MSG Ramen dishes. The texture of the ramen was nice, the broths had quite nice unique flavours.
The quantity of protein was, to put it mildly, stingy. My dish had a token of pork cut so thinly it was shameless. With service and tax the bowl was $19 for essentially ramen.
When I asked the waitress to pass on my comments to the manager, she actually replied "What do you want ME to do about it!"... Well, as requested, pass the comments on to the management!
Not worth a repeat experience...

Many food options in the area but decided to come here for a quick meal. Ordered the dipping noodles that came with a side of fried chicken. Food wasn’t great - dipping noodle too acidic and fried chicken over fried. Female wait staff was friendly though.

Had a little ramen craving adventure at Afuri Ramen @ Funan! I went all-in with the Ninniku Tok Ramen and requested for extra chili powder to crank up the heat as the ramen itself wasn’t spicy even when I had requested for extra spice. Meanwhile, my friend had her favorite, the Asari Shio Ramen.
The ramen was solid and flavorful, but I was hoping for a bit more punch. It’s probably perfect for most people, though. The noodles were on the firmer side, which was fine but not mind-blowing.
They also have beer, though the selection is limited—I ended up with an Asahi, which was better. Just a heads-up, the beer is a bit pricey. Service was a bit sluggish, probably because they were short-staffed. The place had the classic Japanese restaurant vibe—simple and cozy, but nothing too out of the ordinary.
All in all, it’s a good spot if you’re nearby and craving a decent bowl of ramen. If you’re in the mood for something extra special, you might want to explore other options in Funan.

Visited Afuri at 8pm and there was no queue. Service was very fast. We ordered spicy tsukemen and the regular tonkotsu. I find that the Tonkotsu broth is too thin for my liking, but the tsukemen is superb! Thick and goes really well with the ramen. Karaage on the side was also very good though I wish they served it piping hot.
