Goraiko Izakaya

This small Japanese restaurant offers a variety of specialties. The crab balls are delicious, as are the pork slices served over a bowl of rice—delicious and tender. Unfortunately, I don't remember the original names of the dishes, but you can't go wrong. The place isn't large, and its decor is simple, typical Japanese. Prices range from €20 to €30, depending on your order. It's nothing like a typical Chinese restaurant.

Typical Japanese style restaurant in the center of Monza. The restaurant is furnished in a modern and elegant way and offers many typical Japanese dishes cooked in a careful and refined way. The dishes tasted were all very appreciated with particular reference to the baked aubergine and the pork ramen without broth. The staff is kind and helpful and the cost is adequate for the quality of the dishes (16€ for the ramen in question)

Absolutely a pearl to try in the heart of Monza. Food: Very good, they have a not too large menu with excellent choices for every taste. We had the chicken wings, the ribs, the tonkotsu ramen and the mazesoba and they were both very good. Location: Elegant and clean. It also has outdoor tables in the small square, perfect for enjoying a dinner outside during the beautiful seasons without being surrounded by cars or people passing by as often happens with outdoor tables. Obviously no parking other than the paid ones in the surrounding area, which are almost always full. Price: For the location, the quality of the dishes and in general the style of the place, in my opinion there is a good quality/price ratio.

A location with meticulous attention to detail and truly exceptional dishes. Here you can enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine, with authentic flavors and quality ingredients. The only downside: the service, which was rather slow on both occasions. That said, the gastronomic experience is more than worth the wait.

We discovered this place practically the first day it opened in the center of Monza. It quickly became one of our favorite places to eat out. Highly recommended, the food is delicious, with so many dishes to try and savor. The selection of drinks/alcoholic beverages (such as sake) to accompany the dishes is also vast, making dinner an experience you absolutely must try. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. In short, delicious and highly recommended.

We stumbled upon this place somewhat by chance, and I must say it was a pleasant discovery. The place is very beautiful, and now we're having intimate dinners. We ordered a set of shrimp gyoza and a vegetable one. They were very good and flavorful, but I must point out that the shrimp ones opened a little too easily due to the different closing technique. Next, we ordered two different ramen. I've attached a photo (I don't remember the names since they're in Japanese). I found the lighter-colored ramen (chicken) incredibly good and balanced with all the other ingredients. I highly recommend it. I found the darker one, with the beef broth, a bit heavy and difficult to finish. The Kirin beer was excellent. The service was attentive and never intrusive. We'll be back to try the rest of the menu. The price was fair given the quality of the preparation and the generous portions. Thank you so much

Goraiko Izakaya has a super welcoming atmosphere and delicious, authentic Japanese dishes. You can feel the passion in every detail. Elisa is incredibly kind and makes you feel right at home. I'll definitely be back!

I came the other night with friends and we had a great time. We had lots of appetizers to share and some ramen. Everything was excellent, and the service was truly impeccable. Highly recommended.

Great ramen restaurant! The environment is welcoming and the staff very friendly. The ramen is really good, with a flavorful broth and fresh ingredients. The portions are generous and you can feel that everything is done with care. I will definitely be back!
