Came in at 6pm on a weekday, waited to be seated; Then "we're out of sushi, is that OK?" I mean... no? Would've been nice if there was a sign on the door saying "we're out of half our items". Would have left... Ramen was OK. Broth was good but Cha-shu was a bit overcooked/dry.
Probably the best Japanese restaurant in Port Alberni IMO. I tried the Chicken Yaki Udon and it was very tasty. The service was great, very polite. Overall the place was tidy and clean, dirty tables were cleaned up as soon as the customer had left, so very efficient. There were a few orders before mine but I felt that considering that my order was out on my table in the appropriate amount of time. It was definitely hot and I had asked for two ingredients to be left out of the dish. It was made exactly as I had wanted so kudos to both the server and the chef. I understand that this is a family run business, I know that I'll be coming back to try out some more tasty dishes.
I visited Doki Doki Alberni restaurant in Port Alberni with friends, and I really enjoyed it! I ordered ramen, which was delicious, and the service was amazing. I highly recommend this place to my friends and colleagues. It’s a pity that this restaurant isn’t in my city.
Had the beef pho and spicy tonkotsu ramen for take out. It was perfectly packaged, like a dream! Flavours were beautiful and generous amounts of everything. Will be back :)
The owner was very nice, and the ramen and pho were all delicious! There was also a generous amount of noodle, which was nice but also ruined my weight-loss plan. Haha
This restaurant serves mostly Japanese cuisine (although not authentic) as well as Pho at the same time. Owned by a nice korean family. The ramen were frozen ramen packets you can buy at the grocery stores and the soup was definitely not pork bone soup simmered for hours. They did try to make some fusion taste and it was ok but because of the lack of work needed to make this, it should not be priced similar to real ramen. Also comes with a button mushroom disguised as a shitake mushroom. The udon soup was on par with other japanese restaurants since the dashi stock is fairly easy to make. The portion is very huge and the taste is not bad. The tempura was fried nicely. This one is priced fairly. Since Port Alberni lacks authentic Japanese cuisines, this is all they have. Taste-wise is ok for a fusion palate.
Great food at a reasonable price. Had the Tempura Udon and Dynamite rolls and both were excellent. Udon was definitely bigger than I expected. Owner was very attentive and friendly. Complimentary green tea was also a nice touch.
Amazing food & excellent staffs. Pho, Rice with Chicken kids meal & Shrimp fries are my favourite here. During my travel to Tofino visited this place & stopped by on my way back too attracted by their delicious meal. Good quantity & pricing. 10/10 for their service. Highly recommend if you are planning to visit
The spicy Tonkotsu ramen is so delicious. Awesome soup Also, rice noodles are by far the best Food : 5/5
Very good food, considerate portions and very good flavor.
Ill definitely come back and try their ramen next time.
We moved from Vancouver where pho was on every corner so it was great to find this quaint little place. The pho was great. My craving for it has been fulfilled. Thank you doki doki.
Hidden gem 1st class Pho and Noodles Food
Family ran buisness, food always comes out so fast. Always enjoy my meals. Favorite dishes would be beef or spicy chicken pho and the alberni Ramen. Chicken karage is super crunchy and the cheese tempura is also delish. Cant go wrong with much here.
Beef pho is delicious, will come more often, one more favorite place in town.
My nephew and wife just took me here the other day, that was the best full Ive felt in a long time! Thank you again, definitely hope to be a regular from the coast. Such a great menu!
Just the absolute best ramen I have ever had. Doki doki is the only thing I miss about Port Alberni.
really good food!!
Love this place. The food is delicious and very well priced for the amount you get. I would give it 5 stars if it were licensed.
The food is always great, the price is right, and the service is fast. We are repeat customers.
Great place for pho
Large portion.
I had something I have never tried before and it was so good! Will definitely go back.I mean I live in lakecowichan and I would just drive there for dinner .Its that good!
So happy youre here :)
YUM
FR On God! This place is straight BUSSIN NO CAP respectfully
The ramen is the best I have had in a long time, Im a repeat customer and so far everything Ive tried Id eat ten times over. Kid-friendliness: Kids welcome.
I was a firm Timberlodge patron, but Doki Doki has a simplified menu that is pure quality. So excited about this place.
Lovely sushi rolls and ramune!
Excellent food, great service.
BEST FOOD
A small space but with really good ramen.
I am a ramen addict. I have eaten the spicy tonkotsu ramen 5 times in 2 months. In fact, I think Ill have some more after I finish writing this review! Doki Doki is owned and operated by a nice family who make extremely delicious food. Appies like edamame beans, tempura and chicken karaage are awesome. The ramen is very generous in both ingredients and size. Reasonable prices too. If you havent already tried this place, hurry! Ramen. Om nom nom.
Always great food. My favorite is the cheese tempura so darn good.
Excellent pho
My wife and I got Pho and Ramen tonight and it was delicious! Great taste and fresh. Perfect on a winter day. Great service too!
Excellent food and service. Highly recommend it!!
Wonderful food, and very kind people. Come and make this, your cultural food
Very rude and bad service, left and wont go back
Super tasty pho, udon & sushi. Noodles, broth & add-ins were packed separately, no squishy soup! Servings were plenty. Service was friendly & efficient. Will definitely be back!
The food was really good. I am from Victoria and I visit this place often cuz I can not forget all the yummy tasty food. My favorites are spicy noodle with kim chi and fried shrimps!
They have good ramen at a good price. Their tempura veggies are also great.
Great little Alberni family-run hideaway, good food, good prices, wonderful attentive service, and booths!
Hidden gem! Comparable to any great ramen place in Vancouver. Adequately spicy bowls with lots of veggies, egg, etc, and light, crispy tempura
This is, hands down, the best ramen noodles I have ever had in my life. Such great service and fantastic food!
Absolutely delicious food! Their Tonkotsu Ramen is insanely good. My familys favorite restaurant in Port Alberni, dine-in or take-out.
Delicious ramen
Wonderful family who owns doki doki.
I just picked up some Ramen on my way home tonight and it is the best Ramen I have ever had. Better than anything I got in Victoria. The broth is amazing and flavourful and it s a good serving size and it s really reasonably priced. I will be returning to try more items.
Awesome food excellent price
This restaurant is best in Canada !!!!! Good tasty and fresh and price!!
Wow. Great portions, great prices, awesome staff. So glad I tried this place, will be back again to load up on Pho!!
Such delicious food, amazing staff will be back :D
The spicy tonkatsu ramen was so very good. Great people great food 10/10 I am so happy they are back open again
Tasty ramen and great service!
Really great food and decent value. I would definitely recommend trying this place out. This wings and tempura shrimp were delicious!
Amazing food, service and prices! We had a great time here at this family run restaurant. Each dish was so unique and flavourful, I ll definitely come back whenever I m in port alberni!
My family has been staying in Port Alberni for one week. We loved the food here so much we can twice in one week! (Which is exceptional for us). The quality of the food was excellent, prices very fair, and portions generous. It is a family-run restaurant and their passion and care is evident. Would strongly recommend to anyone. Our favourites were: the pho, tonkatsu ramen, chicken udon, any of the tempura, and the sweet soy karage.
The tempura shrimp and yam are great. The kids menu chicken and rice is so tasty. The ton katsu ramen is a soup noodle lovers delight. The service is fast and the prices are quite low.
Amazing ramen, super filling and tastes fantastic, I got the Alberni Ramen and it was better than I expected!! Takeout comes in 2 parts to stay hot and fresh!!! Cant wait to come back and try the Pho and sushi, Ive been told they are both also top notch!! 10 out of 10!!
These guys make a great ramen. Excellent broth, friendly, fast service. Ample parking.
Love the food and great service I had the beef pho soo much flavour!
Doki doki ramen is very delicious. Not expensive.
Ordered for pickup/takeout The lady on the phone was rude as hell and the food was completely tasteless. I have never in my life had sushi that displeasing. Will never be ordering from there again. Cant speak for all the menu items but from the 4 different things we ordered it was definitely borderline gross.
The BEST Pho and ramen in town
This place is a real gem. The udon, ramen, tempura, and sushi are all well thought out and nothing disappoints. It could easily succeed in Vancouver or Toronto. The service is great. The chef obviously cares about his food and is consistent. I have been here a dozen times and the quality never wavers.
Amazing food. Good prices. Friendly staff! So glad to have this place in town.
They hugged me with their food and service..
Amazingly delicious and always a pleasure to eat at. Best service. Never leave hungry.
Very good and Tasty
Been coming here since they opened. Always amazing food. Always amazing service. My favorite restaurant!
Quick and Friendly service and the food.....!!! We had the yam and prawn tempura, the beef pho and the pork ramen. All 12/10. Great size portions. We were not hungry after we left. Highly recommend.
I stopped here with my girlfriend because we heard great things from a coworker. He was right! The beef pho was so amazing! (Never tried pho before.) The broth had hints of fresh herbs, ginger and cinnamon. The soup is loaded with green onions, red onions, thinly sliced beef, rice noodles, bean sprouts, Thai basil, Red chili, lime juice. Top it off with chili garlic sauce and hoisin sauce. Food literally doesn t get any better. This soup is massive and is definitely a meal. Great price too. If your tastebuds are tired of the same old food over and over then you should try this place to wake them up.
Excellent food made with care and high quality ingredients. Outstanding, fast and friendly service in a cute and cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended.
First time here and I found the most amazing place, service was awesome, and the waitress thought me about how to eat the soup I ordered. And as for the food it was above and beyond any other Japanese restaurant I have ever been... thank Jenna I will be back for sure, I recommend to everyone to come in and try their food and service... amazing
Always great food
Top notch ramen shop. Fresh, fast service, and obviously delicious. Sweet soy karaage are now my go-to chicken wings when Im craving them, and the cheese tempura. Oh god the cheese tempura. Just order it. Dont look back now.
Wonderful food. Great service.
Amazing food and even better service!
Lucky to have a place in town that serves pho and ramen. Its very good too!
Wow amazing Ramen
I tried the beef pho last night and it was so good that I went back today to try something else. The deep fried cheese and gyozas are also delicious. I definitely recommend.
Get the chicken, theyre great.
The waitress Joyce was amazing. Best waitress EVER.
