Got the miso ramen with mild spice, comforting and satisfying with a perfect soft-boiled egg. Also tried the special Tomizo ramen (only 5 serves a day). Strong garlic, rich broth, and thick noodles. The gyoza was good too, especially in the tartar sauce.

The spice levels are now serious lol, they pour less broth, and the fried rice changed. They skimped out on the meat in the fried rice and the flavor and texture has changed.

I like this spot. We came here because the wait for Shinsengumi Yakitori was too long and were…read morereally glad we came over. The restaurant wasn't full yet but it filled up very quickly after we sat down (shortly after Shinsengumi opened). There's a decent amount of seating inside and it's very lively. We had our kids with us and didn't feel too self conscious when they were making a ruckus lol. I got their Tokyo Yatai ramen with extra noodles and an additional side of curry rice. It's a solid meal if you're by yourself. I'm not sure why it's called Yatai but I understand that word is associated with those shop stands that cook food on the side walks. I'm a big fan of food stalls so this bowl of ramen gave me those kind of vibes. I loved it. It was well balanced and the noodles were delicious! The side of curry was delicious too! I'd definitely come back here regardless of what's going on at Shinsengumi next time!

This is a small shop that gets busy fast. I arrived right at opening and there were already…read morecustomers inside. The food was prepared quickly and service is amazing. Staff were super attentive and kind. Got the dip ramen (aka tsukemen) in regular size. The portion is just right. Noodles are thick and chewy. The dipping broth is so well flavored and goes amazing when dipped with the noodles. I liked the broth so much I tried it on its own, but it was too salty and not meant to be used for drinking. The ramen came with half an egg, and a slice of chashu. Egg was perfect- not too runny or cooked. Chashu was tender. Really loved this and will definitely come get it again. Fried rice side- really flavorful and tasty. It had some meat pieces and fishcake pieces inside. Gyoza - got the kurobuta and garlic flavor. Unfortunately this fell short of my expectations as the top of the skin wasn't crispy at all. The filling was juicy, but had a bit too much ginger taste to it.

It was a pretty standard ramen but I appreciate that they did give a lot of noodles. The broth was tasty too (especially for being vegan!). We had called about food allergies previously and were told then and then in person that one of their ramens didn't have egg. When it came out, we double checked one more time because many ramen noodles contain egg and theirs did too. So it was a really good thing we checked. They quickly remade it with their vegan noodles but just a note ti be careful!

I love a place that lets you customize your ramen pretty well and here you definitely can. Your noodle firmness, toppings and add ons, seasonings, etc. Black Garlic: Get!

I used to frequent shin sen gumi regularly but the lines are always outrageous there. Hakata Ikkousha doesn't have lines, at least the times I've been and the ramen is just as good as sin sen gumi. My family and I love to frequent here because we know what to expect. I will say on my latest visit, the ambiance was not it. Why? Well, because while everything else was on par, the music selection was highly inappropriate for a restaurant. Tupac's unedited Hit 'em Up was playing loud as we sat and ate, i had my kids with me. Look, I'm by no means a snowflake and hyper-sensitive to profanity-laced music, but this was completely unexpected at a family-friendly restaurant. I still plan to eat here in the future, but I just wasn't feeling the vibes during the last visit.

Based on our visit tonight, I give this a solid 5 stars!…read more It's a small restaurant housed in a former Taco Bell. They have counter seating as well as at regular tables. Service is pretty good and polite. We were seated right after the table had been cleared. We looked over the menu and got some water while we were deciding. We ordered Gyoza & Tan-Tan Miso Ramen to share. Thank goodness we shared because their bowls are pretty enormous! We didn't even finish it! What I truly appreciate about this place is that the food is served very HOT! Be careful! I really loved their Gyoza! They are crispy on one side and soft & chewy on the others. The ramen was served piping hot. It was so full of goodies like bean sprouts, onions, carrot slivers, and ground pork. We had come here long ago, but it may have been before my Yelp days. We came because we heard that they make their noodles in-house. Not sure if that is still the case. I think it is, though. TIP: Bring cash. I think it is Cash Only, but again, I'm not 100% sure. Their website says "Cash Only". We paid with cash. We will certainly return! Hubby will probably want to try their Yakisoba!

Eventhough it was pretty hot outside, I still enjoyed the warmth the ramen brought. The Yuzu pinacolada is a treat in itself. It's rich and tasty! We live closeby and will definitely come back!

Their menu is full of variety and a high quality one offering Wagyu, Prime, and select cuts of your preferred meat. Come with friends and be as loud as you want but make sure to include the servers they like to have fun too. Unfortunately, I have to take one off because they failed to check in us a few times but I believe this was due to a staff rotation/change. We had to wait time to order and they failed to tell us that sushi was unavailable until the end of the night and that was a majority of one person's dinner.
