Juu Nana Sakaba raises the bar for ramen, kushiyaki, tonkatsu, teppanyaki & tendon in Petaling Jaya

We're returning to Juu Nana Sakaba, which is raising the bar for ramen, kushiyaki, tonkatsu, teppanyaki and tendon in Petaling Jaya's Section 17 neighbourhood.

Juu Nana Sakaba does justice to Japan's gastronomic genres, fuelled by beautiful broths, gorgeous grills and fantastic frying - its latest menu is better than ever, bringing soulful slurps of noodles, sultry bites of skewers and much more.

Whether you're craving steaming-hot chashu ramen or soothingly chilled hiyashi udon, succulent yakitori or juicy beef teppanyaki, a creamy-crispy plate of curry tonkatsu or a hearty tempura bowl, Juu Nana Sakaba strives to satisfy our mood for Japanese food. 

Also head here for wallet-friendly promotions - Juu Nana Sakaba is currently offering 20% off its set lunches, a brilliant bargain for a satisfying afternoon meal.

 

On this calm PJ street, Juu Nana Sakaba continues to be a comforting presence with its lantern-lit booth tables lined with Japanese illustrated posters, separated by bamboo blinds for a smidgen of privacy. Near walls that showcase shelves of sake bottles and carafes, customers can watch the experienced chefs confidently preparing their meals in the open kitchen.

Juu Nana Sakaba's show-runners have long specialised in ramen - this Ooki Chashu Ramen is casual and cheerful, fuss-free and fulfilling, featuring the restaurant's signature torched pork belly slab, chunky and lusciously layered with flesh and fat, complemented by collagen-rich, slow-simmered tonkotsu pork bone or tori paitan chicken broth.

Fun fact: Juu Nana Sakaba's broths are authentically appetising - no milk is added for any artificial creaminess, no MSG is used to up their natural umami.

The  range of ramen ensures there's something for everyone, from time-honoured classics like miso ramen to more unconventional concoctions like the tangy-spicy kimchi ramen, irresistible with its captivating crimson colour, complete with charcoal-cooked chashu.

Udon is also available, uniquely served with the smoky chashu in hot and cold preparations, a refreshing change for noodle enthusiasts who enjoy the smooth, bouncy bite of fresh udon.

You could easily have a full feast of skewers at Juu Nana Sakaba - the selection is sweeping, all at attractively reasonable prices.

For protein-packed power, sink your teeth into bara pork belly (RM6), tebasaki chicken wings (RM7), momo chicken thigh (RM4), beef sukiyaki (RM12) and plump ebi prawns (RM6). Also don't miss Juu Nana Sakaba's excellent pork equivalent of tsukune with yolk dip (RM9).

The Beef Teppanyaki set lunch (RM35) boasts stir-fried beef that's perfect for carnivorous customers, generously loaded with lots of supple, savoury meat.

The Ten Don set lunch (RM28) is terrific too, heaped with an array of assorted tempura, comprising ebi and various vegetables, blanketed in light, crispy batter.
