About JFX Noodle & Tapas Bar

Pair steaming craft ramen with sizzling tabletop wagyu barbecue right at your table in Southport. Locals lean into the rare flexibility—slurping rich tonkotsu broth while searing cuts of marbled beef on the grill without hopping between restaurants. Bowls span niche regional styles from garlicky Jiro ramen piled high with vegetables to house-favorite chilli coriander. Diners craving variety regularly assemble three-item tasting sets, teaming mini ramen with crisp karaage and tender chashu over rice. Lines can form quickly during peak service, but refreshing tap beer eases the wait.

  • Tabletop Yakiniku & Ramen: Sizzle fresh cuts of wagyu right at the table alongside piping-hot bowls of craft noodle broth.
  • Mix-and-Match Trio Sets: Sample smaller portions by combining mini bowls, chashu rice, and savory side tapas for an easy lunch or dinner.
  • Specialty Regional Broths: Slurp regional and rare broths rarely seen nearby, including thick-noodle Jiro-style and chilli coriander bowls.

  • Customizable Three-Dish Tasting Sets

    Modular combo options allow diners to customize meals by sampling three mini dishes, such as ramen, chashu rice, and savory Japanese tapas.

    We had the "choose 3 dishes to make it a meal set" the Chashu rice was superb, meat was so soft and their ramen was silky smooth.

  • Hard-to-Find Regional Japanese Ramen Styles

    The menu features distinct regional noodle varieties rarely found locally, including hearty Jiro-style bowls with thick noodles and generous toppings.

    This is the only Jiro-style ramen spot I found on the Gold Coast, and it was a total gem!

  • Multi-Generational Appeal for Family Meals

    The versatile menu provides accessible ramen options for children alongside premium barbecue platters, making family gatherings seamless and enjoyable.

    Loved the salad and beef bbq, kids had ramen which tasted much better than from another restaurant two days ago.

Before you head over

Practical tips on reservations, combo portions, and combining BBQ with ramen

  • Book Ahead for Peak Times

    With people regularly lining up out the door during peak lunch and dinner hours, reserve a table ahead so you avoid long waits or missing out on a seat entirely.

  • Sizing the 3-Dish Combo

    If you have a large appetite, opt for a full-size ramen bowl, as the popular 3-item mix-and-match set comes in smaller tasting portions that may require ordering extra sides.

  • Pair Yakiniku with Ramen

    Tables can turn into an interactive feast when you order the Japanese BBQ platter to cook fresh wagyu beef alongside piping hot craft ramen bowls.
