It was our first time... Food, was ok.. i got the veggie ramen was OK, I thought they made their own noodles they don't we got the 3 pork egg rolls were not impressed, my husband felt like he had to eat them because one of the servers kept on passing by and staring at the plate lol so funny. I didn't like them the flavor was a lil weird and was not my favorite. Sorry. My husband got the CK ramen he said it was OK lil plain for his taste. I got the bobba milk tea it was good a little expensive for the size though. Ambiance was good pretty busy. We paid $45 for 2 ramen and 1 appetizer 1bobba, i didn't see sushi on the menu. read more

I was able to try a few items for the first time today at Ichiban Ramen. The pork bun was absolutely delicious, as were the crab puffs. I had the tan tan ramen, which was perfectly spicy and rich in flavor. The noodles had a great chewy consistency. On my way out I got some honeydew milk tea, which was a little sweeter than I would prefer but overall it had a very good honeydew flavor. I will definitely be back to this place. I can definitely see why the restaurant was so busy at lunch time, but the service was still friendly and prompt. Definitely recommend this place. read more

Ichiban Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Tyler, Texas

The customer service was great! The food was delicious! How it's just that in the bowls they put less rice and just a bit more meat and that will make it outstanding. Ambience was wonderful! read more

I would give this place 50 stars if I could! Service is excellent and the ramen is INCREDIBLE! We have tried all the ramen spots in Tyler, and NOTHING comes close to Ichiban. It's even better than our old favorite place in Dallas. This is our new favorite ramen spot for sure!!! read more

See all

I ordered the beef teriyaki and it came with 5 small mediocre tasting pieces for $16. My friends ordered ramen and theirs tasted good and came with lots of meat. read more

Great anime vibes and good service. Best ramen in east texas !! The sides are also well priced and very tasty.

They have great Tonkatsu and Birria Ramen as well as a bunch of great appetizers. Every time we go the staff recognizes us and we love it.

The boba tea, the crab ragoons, the ramen- all blew our minds! Super yummy, high quality, at expected price. The service was quick and we will definitely be back! read more

This place is wonderful!!! Loved the food!!! Best Orange Chicken in Tyler!!! Can't wait to try something else and see how good it is! The service is impeccable!!!

The decor was so appropriate for the type restaurant. Will definitely go back again and again read more

The food here is incredibly good, maybe a bit sweet for some people but the taste is great. The service is also really good and they're very fast and always checking up on us. Finally, the atmosphere in here is really nice but a bit overwhelming as their music is a tad loud. Overall it's a great place to eat and hang out at. read more

I have never had ramen that compares to Ichiban's, it is delicious! The broth was unique and very tasty.

Delicious. Hands down wonderful, highly recommend. I love their spicy curry ramen, and my daughter brought home a bowl with kimchi as a side. I've always been mediocre about kimchi but this stuff was freaking delicious!!!!! read more

Y'all gotta go here!! Drop what you're doing and go!!! Awesome service and the BEST ramen in this area!!! OMG, I don't care how weird this sounds, but I'd bathe in that broth. It's that good!!! We will definitely be back! read more

Delicious Ramen and Kimchi!! The service is amazing they're always watching and making sure we had everything we needed, but weren't too on us while eating, which is something i enjoy. The area is a little small but it's cute it reminds me of like a small town ramen bar, which that's what it is. They have cute little decor on the walls that i love read more

The best ramen in town! The Katsu Curry is also to die for!

Great quick place to grab a tasty ramen. Service was fast, polite and knowledgeable. Don't expect any great ambiance but the food was tasty.

I went through the drive thru. Food was mediocre at best and overpriced. The drive thru took awhile, so I was expecting fresh food. The food was packaged alright, did not leak with soup base packaged separately from the bowl of ingredients-combined at time of consumption, egg rolls packaged in a sushi roll container. It wasn't fresh and the egg rolls tasted like the frozen egg rolls from any grocery store. The egg and chicken were definitely not made today with the white of the egg discolored before I poured any soup base over it. The chicken was extremely dry, bland, and almost rubbery like it was heated in a microwave. Soup base was supposed to be chicken but it's dark brown color comparable of beef or pork broth/stock and tastes like packaged processed sh*t not homemade like it was made from a packet taken out of a ramen noodle soup. The menu said chicken broth-no way it's chicken flavor. My problem is the price for the sh*t they're serving this should be 25-30% cheaper for the sad ingredients they're using. Additionally, the individual at the drive thru acted annoyed, rolling his eyes because I didn't tip on a DRIVE THRU order-I'm not tipping drive thru. I will never go here again and I wouldn't recommend it. Just make ramen at home throw an egg and left over chicken in it voila better quality meal for way cheaper. read more

Absolutely STELLAR! I chose Ichiban Ramen over the other ramen places in Tyler because of their reviews and convenient location. I had no idea of what to order that would match my desires. I asked the cashier to help me, and he did so good! I had spicy ramen with chicken. IT WAS AWESOME! It was filling, tasty, and even given to me in seperate containers to ensure quality. Freaking awesome. I'll be back! Best ramen I've ever had. read more

Best ramen in Tyler, the $9.95 ramen happy hour can't be beat. I used to go to Mikoto but their food and service has gone really downhill over the past year. Great value, good portions, and fresh food. The black garlic, miso ramen, and spicy curry have the most flavorful broths. My only qualm is that the pork slices can be a little bit more tough than I've had at other ramen establishments but the broth is just so next level it doesn't matter. Also, totally random, the music is always really good there. read more

The first time we went, the meat was lean and tasty. The second time the meat was very fatty and not good at all. We have t been back

New location in Tyler. Great service! I had takeout for 2. The shrimp shumai was not at all what I expected. They looked like big tater tots, which I was expecting it to look more like a dumpling. Much smaller than expected for the price. I will not order that again. The ramen bowls were good for take out. Spicy curry was a bit bland for me, added a soy sauce packet and it made it a little tastier. I'm on the fence about returning. Will try something different if I decide to go back. read more

Best fried rice in town hands down !!! The service is amazing ! They even check the bag for me before I left

The spare ribs and shrimp tempura are delicious!! Then entree Charsiu Bowl was just ok.

Gotta change my review to five stars! Went back to ichiban and got some spicy curry ramen, General Tsao's chicken and some more onigiri! Rice was perfect and the entire General was awesome. We asked for bokchoy on the ramen and they put it on for us. Onigiri as always were top notch! Drive thru was quick and food was still hot when we got home. In a town desperate for some good Asian food, this place is your best bet!! read more

Great service amazing ramen ! really recommend number 5, I would like to thank all the workers for their service.

Very good food, able to customize to suit your taste. Punch card for frequent guests.

Today I came in to try the new Ramen spot of Tyler, TX and i can say without a doubt this one will blow out all other competition. The food was tasteful with large portions with reasonable prices. The service was outstanding and i liked that it wasn't just my server asking me if i need anything else. The aesthetic will please any anime fan to the fullest extent. I recommend this place to all who enjoy a great bowl of ramen! read more
