I got the Shoyu Ramen for the first time, and surprisingly it was similar to the tonkatsu ramen. There's always soup isn't as creamy and thick and I enjoyed it a lot. It was lighter, but still had the depth of flavor. This is my go-too ramen spot because the flavors are consistent! The service was amazing, they're fast to get us seated and took our order immediately. Our food came out pretty fast! The ambiance is clean and similar to the other locations. Not a lot of seating and is more known to seat smaller parties. There's ample parking available!
It's a small place with a simple menu (3 types of ramen, cold dipping noodle, rice bowls and some sides). Exactly like a ramen place should be. They don't have a large sign, so it's easy to drive past. Pay attention to the space numbers. My wife and I both had the Tonkatsu ramen and we enjoyed it, flavorful and a nice size bowl. We also had crispy chicken which I thought was just ok, I'd pass on it next time. They do have a service charge added to the bill, but they do not take tips, so it's evens out. Definitely a place I'll hit up again when the ramen mood hits.
Was looking forward to eating here because I've bookmarked it for the next time I was in Newport. No lines. They had tables available but we were asked to wait outside while they cleaned up a table for our party of 3. So while I was waiting about 5 min, I walked over to a food court next door. Friendly people. Lots of choices. Walked back to HiroNori. They still didn't have our table ready. Still no lines. Still saw empty tables. We decided to cancel. They asked for our name. I said, "We weren't asked for our name." So guess what. We left and went next door. Sorry HiroNori. I am removing your bookmark.
We finally had the time to come in and spend some time dining in! Once we walked in, the staff immediately sat us and asked if we had any allergies! I love it when the service is absolutely incredible before food comes to the table. Of course, I had to go for my large pork belly rice bowl with their complimentary spicy sauce. My partner ordered their shoyu ramen and absolutely loved it. The broth is impeccable and it pairs so well with their noodles. I wish I had a Hiro Nori closer to my area so I could keep enjoy some savory goodness!
I got my order to go since our group was meeting at the food hall at the end of the building. I had crispy rice with spicy salmon, cucumber crab salad, and chicken. Everything was very good and service was fast. I really like eating at the restaurant since the presentation of the food is nicer. I'll be back when our group meets again.
This was our first visit here, a Saturday night, & seeing the crowd standing outside worried us. There were 17 names before ours & we were hesitant to stay....I'm so glad we waited. It only took 30 minutes to be seated (I think we lucked out). Menu is simple..3 types of ramen, 5 types of rice bowls, toppings, & sides. The ramens were priced by the type of broth with minor changes in toppings (ex. Bamboo vs bean sprouts but all came with pork except for the veggie one). Price ranges from $9.50-$10.95, +3.75 for making it a combo. There is a service charge of 15% but they ask you not to leave a tip (printed on the menu & they mentioned it to us). I ordered the shoyu ramen combo with a chicken bowl. The broth was so light, pork was tender, bamboo was sweet & the egg was cooked to perfection. I was so full I didn't get to the chicken bowl (sorry will add that info in next time). The kids had the Tonkatsu Ramen-creamier/heavier broth with more of a pork flavor. Kids ate it all up & we're raving about it. All in all Delicious! Delicious! Delicious! Thank you HiroNori for mastering this & sharing it with all of us. Will definitely come back & this time I'll be brave to ask if I can take a pic with Chef Hiro (he was there!)
I feel kind of bad writing this because the place seems popular but I genuinely don't know why. I would not go here for ramen. Seated 15-20 minutes in, but server was not that attentive. Small menu and nice decor though. Food came out maybe 10 minutes after we ordered which was nice but the ramen genuinely had no flavor. Broth no flavor at all, noodles not a good chewy texture, the most flavor I got was from the bamboo shoots. I found more flavor in the fries I got in the food court next door because this meal wasnt fulfilling Eel tempura buns had more flavor and big eel portions but buns were cold and not that fluffy. When we went to pay they also preemptively put in a 17% service charge. They explained it was optional and could be undone but it was strange to see it was highlighted and put on the receipt in the first place
Came back after a long time Service warrants five stars. The server was exceptional. She heard me tell my friends the music is loud and she turned it down. She even let us split the check by item among multiple people Very kind and friendly and really attentive. It's a small place but they did a great job 3 stars for the food I got the vegan ramen and appreciate the fact that hiro nori was one of the first ramen places to offer vegan ramen years ago I feel like the broth lacked salt and so was pretty in flavorful. I tried to add hot sauce to it but it still tasted bland
Had to check this place out after seeing all the amazing reviews, and they definitely did not disappoint. We got there just before the rush, which was perfect. It is a small restaurant, but I loved the aesthetics and it was quiet enough to actually enjoy a good conversation while eating. The service was great and the food was even better. We ordered the tonkatsu ramen and the broth was different from other tonkatsu ramen I have had. It was super thick, rich, and packed with flavor. We also got the chicken bowl and it was loaded. The chicken was grilled perfectly, juicy and not dry at all, with a slight char that added so much flavor. Definitely a spot I would come back to!
Whenever I'm craving ramen, Hironori Craft Ramen absolutely hits the spot. I love that you can choose between thick or thin noodles depending on your mood -- both have the perfect texture and bite. I usually go for the tonkotsu ramen with spicy sauce and garlic paste on the side. The broth is incredibly rich and creamy, with that deep pork flavor that tonkotsu lovers crave. Once I mix in the garlic paste, it adds an extra layer of boldness and warmth that makes every spoonful even more satisfying. The crispy rice is also so good. The bottom is perfectly golden and crunchy, giving you that addictive crackle with every bite, while the spicy salmon on top is fresh, flavorful, and slightly creamy. The crispiness of the rice and the heat from the salmon balance each other beautifully. I also ordered the pork bao, and it was soft, fluffy, and pillowy -- the kind that almost melts in your mouth. The pork was tender and well-seasoned, with just the right amount of sauce to keep it juicy without overpowering the bun. Overall, it's always a comforting and flavorful experience, and it never disappoints when I'm in the mood for a satisfying bowl of ramen.
Shoyu ramen is really good. It's a clear broth that is really meaty and full bodied while being much lighter than a creamy tonkatsu. Price was on the high end but still acceptable, note that 17% gratuity is automatically included but it's clearly stated on the menu and the hosts explicitly ask you if you want to opt out when paying. Just the ramen came out to ~$21 after everything. Service is really friendly too :) make sure to sign up for the waitlist before arriving too, seating inside is limited and there was a ~15 min wait for a party of 1 on a Sunday evening.
If you came here and you only got the ramen, it would be well worth the trip. I cannot convey how good the broth is: I sipped a spoonful before I tucked in, and was blown away by its depth of flavor. It tasted like it had fully imbibed the roasted pork bones into a rich, umami, mother liquor. It tasted like a pure fluid of pork goodness, not a mixture of ingredients or a suspension of briefly boiled pork bits. The noodles are also impressive: great thickness and chew, and their waviness helps them soak in that god broth. The charsiu is also impeccable: broiled on the outside, but containing the right amount of fattiness to melt on the tongue. The sides are also quite good. The green salad has very fine and fresh ingredients, and its size is substantial. I really enjoyed the unagi tempura buns: the eel has a tenderness and fattiness that I prefer to the shrimp tempura bun version I've had at momofuku. But to be clear, the ramen at this place is next level. It's noteworthy to have ramen this good in the US, and I am very grateful to have had the chance.
Ordered: tonkatsu ramen and crispy chicken We came for an early dinner and we were quickly seated without a wait. The service was good, there is an optional service charge already added to the bill that they highlight to notify you. They were attentive with refilling water and the food came out quickly. The crispy chicken was slightly crunchy yet extremely soft and super juicy inside. The tonkatsu ramen is truly crafted. I've never had noodle so bouncy and chewy. The broth was creamy yet so light. My soy marinated egg, spinach and bean sprout were great toppings to break up the heaviness of the broth and char sui.

From the first sip of broth, I was hooked. The tonkotsu ramen was absolutely divine and rich. Such a deep umami flavor in the broth that exceeded expectations. Understandably why they have a long wait list. It's also pretty small inside, so a lot turnover to accommodate the crowd. Food came out quick though for our table of 4. Highly recommend this place to get your ramen fix!! read more
Been here several times and have tried the tonkatsu and shoyu ramen. I prefer the tonkatsu. The fried chicken is flavorful, although a few pieces seemed slightly undercooked. Recently tried the spicy tuna bowl, which was good, but there was too much rice compared to the tuna. Pretty small place so there could be a wait during peak hours. They do have an option to order online for pick up. Overall, it's a decent spot for ramen, and I'd come back for the tonkatsu. My only hesitation is the automatic 17% service charge, as the service can be inconsistent. read more

Fantastic RAMEN, Worth the HYPE! We joined the waitlist ahead of time through their website, and the whole process was smooth -- they texted when our table was ready and seated us right away when we arrived. This location is pretty small, you are sitting pretty close to other tables but it gives that warm comfortable feeling! My husband and I decided to try one of each ramen: I ordered the tonkotsu and he ordered the shoyu. Both broths were incredibly flavorful, rich, and comforting -- and they even offer their house spicy sauce to kick it up a notch! Every spoonful was delicious and perfectly balanced. We also shared the crispy rice with spicy tuna, and it did not disappoint. The tuna was fresh, seasoned beautifully, and had just the right amount of heat -- a perfect starter to our meal. We already can't wait to come back and try more from the menu! read more
A bit of a time wait + friendly service + ample parking! I love that they offer the option for a vegan ramen and while I prefer creamier broths, the shoyu ramen was good. Will try the tonkotsu next time. read more

Hironori is always so consistent and this location is no different! I went with my usual and everything tasted perfect and of course, the garlic was definitely the best part of this meal. They have a really good system for their waitlist so I definitely recommend using it to avoid the long lines that start to accumulate around 6:30 or 7 PM. Will definitely be back! read more

This place is always packed. I ordered takeout in person at 12 pm on a weekday, and it took me 25 mins to get my food. Shoyo ramen (9.6/10) - I like how you can substitute the chashu with chicken. The noodles are chewy and cooked perfectly. The broth is rich and has that umami flavor. I like how generous they are with the veggies and protein. I am sure this ramen will taste even better if I dine in. read more

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m sorry to…
FUEGOOOOOOO I always forget how poppin this shopping center always is...even on a weekday! If you're coming here, plan to get your name on the queue and wait for at least 15 maybe 30 mins- but just know it'll still be worth it. I always get the tonkotsu ramen and load it with some chili oil and a bit of garlic paste and it hits every time. My friend got the teriyaki bowl I believe? Looked good, but I always stick with ramen. We also got a couple of pork Bao buns- I feel like Bao buns are the same a most spots but the sauce on these ones is a bit thicker and sweeter which I liked a lot! Love it here, just wish that it was bigger and more seating so the wait wouldn't be so long, but always worth it regardless! read more
Food here is great as always and worthy of the reputation, but service/experience is a bit unexpected. Maybe it's a part of the hype, but it's a smaller shop with a consistent wait (with or without the waitlist), with small space comes a lot of crowding at the hostess stand where people are trying to check in AND pick up take out orders. Not the most pleasant experience for the crowd averse. Food wise can't be beat with healthy portions. That said, we had noticed they were short staffed because "they only have one person making the appetizers" (so we were told) because my ramen came out before my dining partner's crispy rice and karage came out by like 10 minutes (I finished my ramen before his meal came)--they apologized for that. But very odd read more
I loveeeeee this place!! I live in san diego and was so excited to know they have one here in irvine too. When I was visiting my bf we came here for a quick lunch. The food is always amazing and service was quick as well. We were seated right away, no wait. There is plenty of parking in the lot. Food review: Chicken karaage: (5/5) YUM. Cooked perfectly and super juicy and tender. The dipping sauce it comes with is tasty! Tonkotsu ramen: (5/5) The noodles are my favorite here. The broth is also so flavorful and delicious. I got an extra egg as well. Crispy tuna: (5/5) Delicious! The rice wasn't overly crispy like some places. Super yummy spicy tuna as well and nice sized slice of avo on top. read more
I wrote the review when I returned home, unaware that HiroNori has a branch in America's Finest city so the full review is posted under the San Diego location. So glad they do though because the Pork Buns were unforgettable. Got me singing Nat King Cole! Our servers were attentive to our dining needs making sure they check on us if the food was to our liking...and it sure was! read more
Stopped by HiroNori for lunch and it absolutely hit the mark! Entrees: * Tonkotsu Ramen - The broth is rich, silky, and full of depth. Every spoonful feels hearty and satisfying. * Shoyu Ramen - My favorite. It has a perfectly balanced savory soy flavor that's comforting without being too heavy. I asked for the garlic on the side so I could add just the right amount, highly recommend if you like customizing your bowl. Side: * Pork Buns - Light, pillowy buns with tender pork belly, hoisin, and a bit of tang from the pickled onions. Such a great pairing with the ramen. Service was warm and friendly, and there's plenty of parking. The restaurant is casual and inviting the kind of place where you can just relax, enjoy your meal, and unwind with good company. read more
Came back after not having been for awhile hoping for that same hit the spot ramen and it did! I got the tonkotsu ramen without the pork and subbed in tofu. I love to add the flash fried broccolini - it's so crunchy and just the right amount of salt. The broth is rich and creamy bursting with porky flavor goodness. I love adding the spice and lots of black garlic oil to it. They have the best noodles in the game - period. They're just the right amount of thickness and chewiness. And as always, great service too! read more
I visited HiroNori on a Thursday dinner time period and the place was jam packed! Our server was so fast and efficient to the point that it felt breathless. Food came out very quickly too and we finished eating in 5 minutes or so it felt. The noodles had a nice chewy texture to it but the broth tasted one dimensional and very salty. The portions were also on the smaller side. It was strange the server told us about the mandatory 20% service fees which turned out to be his tip. I was actually going to give him a 25% tip so I felt sorry for him that he basically short changed himself. Due to the rushed nature of ordering, eating, checking out, and barely having time to chew and swallow my food, I doubt I will return unless a friend insists on going. The restaurant is also very cramped and has not much spaces between tables or other diners. So if that bothers you like it does for me, this is not a great place to dine-in. read more

Generous portions of ramen. Got the tonkotsu, spicy, and some pork buns to share. Broth was rich and noodles were perfect texture. Service was great and food came out quickly. Overall clean and hospitable vibe. Will be back! read more
Yummy!! I'm not a big fan of ramen but I was excited to try HiroNori because it is Michilin guide recommended. My whole table ordered the tonkatsu ramen and it was delicious! The broth was so rich and heartwarming. I was pleasingly surprised by the TWO pieces of pork in the bowl. The bowl of ramen was well rounded and definitely filling. I am excited to come back. Service was great! Our server was very organized, especially since we all had different add ons and adjustments. The restaurant is pretty small and located in a small plaza in the middle of corporate buildings in Irvine. Parking could get busy. read more

Hello, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that…
This store is near by my office. The parking lot at this store is always super busy because of the Trade food court. So if you come after 12, good luck hunting for a parking spot. I have learned to order online for pick up before noon. The tonkotsu ramen is my go to order here. They char the pork and the noodles are thick and chewy. I also like to order the hot sauce and garlic to make the ramen extra tasty. When I do get to eat at the store I would also recommend the spicy tuna on crispy rice. read more
Service was great, checked on me table and brought out the food rather quickly. Has ready to go water flavored and unflavored. Tonkatsu Ramen broth is amazing and creaminess is delicious. Love how they have chili and garlic on the side. Portion is perfect! Shoyu Ramen is good and has chicken broth, but wish there was broccolini in it. Lots of outdoor spaces to sit, but only 3 tables inside. Wouldn't be great to eat there in the hot summer or what it rains. read more

HiroNori Craft Ramen Reviews in Other Languages
Ask the Community - HiroNori Craft Ramen
I see that this place is listed as having outdoor seating 9/3/2026. What kind of seating is it, and is it covered / heated? How many people can sit at once in the outdoor seating?
The outdoor seating is covered by umbrellas. As far as I know there are no heaters. Hiro Nori is in a strip mall and the tables are part of the mall, not specific to the restaurant. You can see pictures on Google Maps.
Is the chicken bowl made with chicken karaage or chicken teriyaki? Will it be possible to order the chicken as a topping or substitute to pork?
You can choose.
Do you take reservations?
There is a wait list you can access from the HiroNori web page.
I have allergies, do you have a allergy list? I am allergic to eggs, nuts, and fish.
I do recommend calling in. They have all of these in most, if not all, their dishes.
Do they take reservations for outdoor dining? Was thinking of coming here tonight
No, they don't accept reservations. There's a waitlist you can join. Also, there's only 1 table outdoors. The restaurant itself is pretty small
Any low carb noodles?
I didn't see anything on the menu so I don't think so but you'll have to ask restaurant specifically about it but there was nothing on them
Does any of the broths contain shellfish/seafood?
Unsure but I know most are pork based broth!
Any gluten and soy free options?
Unsure, but it's like asking to take the Asia out of the Asian 😂.
Can I make a reservation or add myself to the wait list?
You have to show up in person to add yourself on the wait list and all the people in your party have to be at the restaurant in order to be seated (at least based off my most recent experience). Hoping they may allow us to do Yelp waitlist to check…
Gluten free options?
Yes, if you get the ramen without the noodles & extra bean sprout. It's delicious!
Why does your current menu and website state 15% service charge for dine in and 5% for to go orders but when you actually look at the receipt it is 16.1625% for dine in and 5.3875% for to go orders?
Since it is a mandatory service charge it is subject to sales tax which is 7.75%.
When is the Irvine Center blvd location opening?
Hopefully at the end of January 2021
How spicy is their spiciest ramen?
There is not really a "spicy" ramen. They have their homemade hotsauce, which they give you on the side, which, in my opinion, is as spicy as sriracha.
Are they busy saturday around 3pm to 4pm?
They're always slammed. It's beat to join their waitlist. Well worth the wait. Always.
Extra Pork vs pork chasu? What's the difference in the toppings menu?
