I ordered the vegetarian ramen bowl. It was so so good! I even asked for it to be spicy and the chef added the right spices. If I ever come back to this area I will definitely be stopping here. read more

Great Korean and Ramen option in the Orange area. We started off with the pork bao and they were fluffy and pork was very well seasoned. We tried the fried gyoza and tasted homemade. We got the spicy miso and tonkotsu and both broths were a hit. They portions are large and the prices were very affordable. It looks like a small business with few staff. Services was very friendly and quick. The restaurant itself is very clean and minimally decorated with plants. Would return again and try their Korean items next time! read more

If you're feeling chilled to the bone and in need of warming up from the inside out then bring yourself here for the bibimbap! Served up sizzling in a stone bowl the rice gets crispy on the bottom. I always say I'll try the ramen but never seem to get around to it. The bao are a nice appetizer if you need a little something extra. Service is super nice every time with ample seating. Thriving plants in the front window are a testament that these are wholesome people. read more

Mixed feelings. 2.5/3 stars I wanted to dine out for lunch as a treat. Possibly have a cocktail. But this wasn't the dining out experience that I was looking for today. When you walk in you don't know exactly what to do until you are told to sit anywhere. It feels like you get the whole restaurant's attention. A friendly couple runs it. They were very nice. But you never get asked if you need anything else. You aren't offered water or asked if everything is ok. No sauces on the table. The only way to get something is to look up until you make eye contact. Not exactly the relaxing experience you expect. No cocktails. Soda or boba tea available. My ramen was tasty. Not the best in the area but tasty. Other dishes coming out looked good. I think I would order to go next time if I were to return. read more

Love this place! The staff was so kind and made you feel taken care like family! Also the portion size was huge for how affordable it all was!! The lighting was also perfect with no overbearing bright lights. Everything was so delicious and authentic I ate myself into a food coma. I will be coming back. They even made a heart out of spring rolls for valentines day without anyone asking (see pictured) read more

I came here after a long day of working errands just wanted something simple but comfortable. The food was amazing. They were so friendly.

We went here for the first time on Christmas Day (as is our Jewish tradition, and I was craving ramen) and the food was amazing. The spicy miso ramen is the best I've had and the Korean dumplings were to die for. Great place, go there. read more

From the moment I walked in, the owners were so welcoming and sweet. We have done take out here many times but this was the first time we've had the opportunity to dine in. What an experience! The perfect cozy, cute spot for a low key rainy date night. The offer such an array of appetizers, ramen dishes and other authentic entrees. We tried a couple different appetizers we hadn't had before and everything was absolutely delicious! Instead of doing our regular ramen order we chose to try two of their authentic entree dishes. SO worth it! So much flavor! The entire staff are so sweet, they answered any questions we had, shared some recommendations of what is popular and what their favorites were. They also went above and beyond to make sure there wasn't anything additional we needed. You can tell how passionate they are about their valued customers snd their cuisine. Definitely the sweetest, most selfless restaurant owners I've ever met. If you are looking for delicious, flavorful ramen - definitely check them out. They are so sweet! Ps. They also have THE best milk tea I've ever tasted! read more

Really hits the spot on a cold rainy day. They have a bunch of ramen options as well as appetizers and even Korean food options! I can't wait to come back and try different dishes other than the ramen. The ramen is huge! The portion is GIANT all while still being flavorful. I got the spicy miso and it was not too spicy. It had a nice kick just enough for me to handle. The workers were really nice and I love the open kitchen concept of the restaurant where you can watch them cook! read more

This is for takeout of the fried oysters and chicken karaage. They both came straight out of frozen bag. I watched them pour it into the deep fryer. The only saving grace was that it was early so at least I watched them pull it out of the freezer. If you are expecting hand battered and breaded chicken or oysters then you should be aware this is not the place. It basically seems like a "subway" of ramen. The ambiance is dark and dingy. The counters are cluttered. Just my observations for a take out order that ordered in person. read more

Incredible food, super nice owners. Best fried chicken I've ever had. Ramen was delicious, all in a wonderful ambiance

Favorite place for Ramen in CT, not necessarily a high bar but this place does it as close to west coast as I can find. On top of that it's family run by a very nice and hardworking bunch. Prices and portions are very reasonable which is hard to find now-a-day. 100% recommend! read more

Wow. Hidden in the endless monotony of strip malls on the Post Road, lies this gem. Simple menu but plenty of selections. Some of the best Ramen I've had, anywhere. Appetizers - the edamame were FRESH and cooked perfectly, seasoned perfectly. No frozen crap here like you get in the all-you-can-eat sushi spots. Steamed Yaku-gyoza were also very very good. I had the Gyuniku Ramen (beef, bamboo shoots, kukurage mushrooms, scallions, egg), the flavor of the broth was deep and intense. I'd prefer the egg to be poached and not soft boiled l, but it was still delicious. My GF had the Hokkaido Kaisan Ramen (shrimp, squid, fish cakes). Ill take her at her word that it was VG. A nice touch, when packing the remaining soup to go, was the separation of noodles and broth into separate containers. Too many times have I brought home noodle dishes from other spots to find that the noodles absorbed the broth. We will return! read more

Ordered some takeout today. The ramen was delicious! The flavors were very well balanced. the Spicy Miso Ramen had a really good heat level. The spice wasn't overpowering but it definitely had a kick. Also tried the Chef's special Bulgogi Beef. Although this wasn't quite as good as the Bulgogi Beef that I've had in Koreatown in Manhattan, it was very enjoyable. I would definitely order it again. As other reviews have stated the service is extremely friendly and welcoming. read more

Quaint, unassuming spot! The decor is simple, lots of seating. The service was a little slow; we went for lunch so they'd just opened. Within 30 minutes of us being there, quite a few other people showed up, thus reassuring our selection. I had the boba tea, mango flavor. It was my first time trying boba tea- it's just not for me, but the mango flavor was great! The chashu was tender and had a light smokiness to the sauce that built as you ate more. The bibimbap had a heat to it that built, unexpectedly, but wasn't overpowering. The egg on top and rice base both appealed to my fitness-conscious fiancé. I had the japchae- glass noodles (made from potato starch) with a sort of stir fry beef, mushrooms, and green peppers. Didn't disappoint- full of flavor, the shaved beef was super tender, and the peppers and mushrooms still had a plumpness left to them. Portion sizes are large! You get a lot for your money here. Highly recommend! The menu has quite a few other things we were eyeing so we'll be returning to try more. read more

Very disappointed. Server was slow, forgot my water and didn't bring my check for at-least 20 mins after I was done. Many dirty tables and you had to watch the servers box and scoop other peoples half eaten meals into Togo containers, in front of you while you're eating. Food was boring. The noodles were cheap and had no texture. Pork fat was super chewy, needs to be rendered more. Broth could have been more spicy and more flavorful. Not many ramen topping options when it comes to veggies and condiments. Only a shaker full of seasoning on the table. bummed! Could be so much better. Bubble tea was popular among other customers. read more

very nice spot - so many options to choose, and everything is fantastic. The takkomaki (octopus appetizer ) was amazing. The pork belly bao was also fantastic. Japchae and chicken katzu was also very very flavorful. Can't wait to go back read more

First time dining here. The area is spacious and clean. The chef was nice and came to greet us. The waitress, Mia was nice too and very sweet. We had their kimchee, the chef made it himself. Its a little on the spicy side. And we ordered two ramens. One beef ramen which was like sliced beef. I ordered a Chasu ramen. It was good. Next time I'm gonna ask then to grill it. The slices were pretty big. And the portion was perfect and I was full. The chef even threw in two drinks for us. It was quicky yummy. Not sure what it is. But it was good. Lol. read more

I wanted to love this place. The service was good, our waitress was sweet and attentive. The food looked great but was just okay. I liked the broth in my miso soup but the ramen noodles were kind of mushy and the corn had no flavor at all.

Some dude said this ramen reminded him of being in Tokyo. Unfortunately, I have no idea what that person is talking about. I've had amazing ramen in Japan, Taiwan, California and even NYC. This spot unfortunately doesn't really compare. Also, saying it's the best in CT isn't really saying much since I can't even find a great pho restaurant here. The broth flavor was decent, but it was a little too fatty. The noodles weren't my preferred type (straight and thin), but they got the job done. Honestly, I thought they did a great job with the pork belly and soft boiled egg, which is definitely a plus. The service left much to be desired, but it just opened so that's just some of the normal growing pains. I'll be back in hopes of some changes as I can't always travel to NYC for my ramen fix. read more

I went for lunch on a Sunday. There was a bad smell when I arrived. I ordered a vegetarian ramen that was good. I was served by the person cooking in the kitchen, maybe an owner, as there was no wait staff at that time (1 pm). The TV in the corner was playing a repeating infomercial. The place feels a little rundown and the bathroom wasn't very clean. While I always want small businesses to succeed, I wish the environment matched the quality of the food. read more

Great food, great beer, great service. The people who run this place are wonderful and kind. I have yet to be disappointed after eating here. read more

Ok, let's start with the bad. This place is rough around the edges. The staff is new and inexperienced, and the interior aesthetic leaves something to be desired. Some decorations on the walls and some music would go a long way. That being said, what really matters is the food, and GD the food is GOOD! The ramen brought me straight back to Tokyo. This is easily the most authentic ramen restaurant that I have ever had in the fine state of CT. read more

The vegetables gyoza were bland uneventful and just not good. Extremely disappointed. The ramen I had so much hope for the ramen and I was completely disappointed. I had the Hokkaido Kaissan Ramen and I was unimpressed. The broth lacked flavor, it was bland. And the part that absolutely turned me off was seeing that the shrimp that I almost consume still be dirty. I was so excited to have found this place because I love Ramen but this was a no for me. Won't be coming back. read more

The food is pretty good! I really enjoy their Pocatello restaurant. The food is good at the Sunnyside IDF location, however the fact that you can't even get a cup of water is not. You are expected to buy a bottle of water... that makes it hard especially with children. Most restaurants provide at least water for their customers. The manager/owner was reluctant to accommodate us. read more

Hokkaido Ramen in Orange will never go there again. The shrimp and squid was so rubbery couldn't even chew it. It had a funny smell too. I told the manager and he said it was high quality seafood. It was disgusting. The dinner looked nice the taste was horrific. The manager wouldn't even take it off the bill. read more

I stopped in for some beers and apps. The menu is impressive, almost strictly Japanese fare. Karage, takoyaki, ramen, even curry... I ordered a Sapporo, takoyaki, and gyoza. I watched the chef take the takoyaki balls out of a package in the freezer and then toss them in deep fryer. Then the same with the gyoza. I feel soft of guilty because I only tried their apps. But if I wanted frozen food I would have gone to the grocery store hahah. Maybe the ramen is better but I don't have faith. This seems like the type of place that buys prepared food and heats it to order. read more
