Ramen is comfort food at its finest — nourishing broth, silky noodles, and toppings that make each bowl unique. At Maneki Ramen, we’re passionate about serving ramen that feels both authentic and exciting. But to elevate the experience even further, we’ve curated something special: our Chef’s Choice Wines.
These natural and biodynamic wines have been handpicked to complement our ramen bowls. They don’t just sit alongside your meal — they transform it, drawing out hidden notes in the broth and creating balance in every bite. It’s ramen and wine, working together to surprise and delight.
Elevate Your Dining Experience with Handpicked Selections from Maneki Ramen
Our approach to wine mirrors our philosophy for food: harmony, depth, and balance. Just as every ramen bowl on our menu is layered with flavour, our wines are chosen for their ability to enhance and echo those layers.
At least a third of our wine list is dedicated to natural wines — bottles made with minimal intervention, often biodynamic, and full of character. They’re vibrant, expressive, and honest, just like our food.
From crisp whites to juicy rosés and bold reds, each wine is selected with a specific ramen bowl in mind. The result? Pairings that elevate your dining experience and make ramen feel new again.
Featured Pairings: Ramen Meets Wine
Here’s how our Maneki Ramen wine selection pairs perfectly with the dishes you love:
- Tokyo Shoyu + Delirious White (Gelber Muskateller, Austria)
A light, floral white with a touch of fizz that lifts the clean, dashi-rich broth of Tokyo Shoyu. Notes of pear and green apple refresh the palate between bites of smoked chicken and shiitake mushrooms. - Roast Duck Sichuan + Sin Copa Rosado Rosé (Spain)
A juicy, claret-style rosé that balances the richness of roast duck with bursts of fresh fruit. Its youthful vibrancy cuts through the spiced broth, making each spoonful feel balanced and bright. - Kimchi Chicken Spicy + Jung & Sexy Sparkling (Austria)
This dark rosé Pet Nat bursts with ripe strawberry and cranberry notes, with a dash of vanilla. Its lively bubbles tame the heat of the kimchi broth, while adding playful energy to the spice. - Tonkotsu Pork + Sin Copa Rojo Red (Spain)
A silky red with dark fruit and balsamic hints that stands up to the depth of our shoyu tonkotsu pork broth. The pork belly’s richness is complemented, not overwhelmed, by the wine’s freshness. - Sesame Miso Shoyu (Vegan) + Tropicalia Orange (Spain)
This orange wine, full of exotic fruit, mirrors the earthy depth of sesame miso. Its bold personality pairs beautifully with crispy tofu, pak choi, and nori, enhancing every layer of flavour. - Maneki x Redefine™ Tantanmen (Vegan) + Delirious White (Gelber Muskateller)
The light fizz and floral lift of Gelber Muskateller balance the bold sesame and soy broth. It cuts through richness, refreshes the palate, and lets the spice shine without overpowering it.
Why Wine Instead of Beer?
Beer has long been ramen’s traditional partner, and it will always have a place at our tables. But wine offers something different: a chance to discover ramen in new ways.
- Where beer refreshes, wine enhances.
- Where beer washes flavours away, wine draws them out.
- Where beer is casual, wine creates a sense of occasion.
With the right glass, ramen transforms from comforting to extraordinary.
A Dining Experience Worth Savouring
Whether you’re visiting us for a lively dinner out or tucking into a cosy bowl at home, our Chef’s Choice Wines make the moment more memorable. Try the crisp sparkle of Gelber Muskateller with Tokyo Shoyu, or let Sin Copa Rojo Red embrace the depth of Tonkotsu Pork. Each pairing is designed to be harmonious, surprising, and satisfying.
At Maneki Ramen, it’s never just about food. It’s about experiences that bring joy, balance, and discovery. Our curated wine selection is an invitation to slow down, savour every bite, and enjoy ramen in a way you’ve never tasted before.
