    For a veggie based ramen I did thoroughly enjoy it, but it did not reach nearly the same highs as meat based ramen dishes I had before becoming vegetarian. I did really enjoy the creaminess of the broth and the noodles overall, but the taste just wasn't as exceptional as I was hoping for. Will definitely be willing to try this place again if I'm back in Dallas for another concert though! (#stanninajirachi)

    Ichigoh Special Spicy Miso Ramen

    Talk about a literal hole in the wall! The establishment itself is very easy to miss as the simple panel storefront seemingly camouflages in the backend of Deep Ellum. The menu is quaint with simple yet unique bites. The Pork Bao buns and shrimp toast were extremely flavorful and delivered to our table in shareable portions for two. We were told the Ichigoh Special Miso ramen was a fan favorite, so naturally we had to put the reputation to the test. Safe to say, the specialty ramen surprised us with slurp worthy savoriness. The noodles were perfectly composed for carrying enough broth into each bite. As a ramen enthusiast, I can confidently claim Ichigoh to be one of-- if not the best ramen joints in all of Dallas. My only critique would be on the lengthy wait it took to place our order after being seated. Highly recommend stopping in if you're craving a warm bowl of fulfilling flavors.

    Yuzu shoyu

    Loved the yuzu ramen we tried that was seasonable. It's a small restaurant along a street with tons of construction. Maybe it'll be done by the time of this review? It's quiet inside and has a simple, contemporary feel. The ramen noodle was bouncy and chewy while the soup had a complex flavor and hint of sourness. Very different from other ramen I've had and special! The tsukemen gave it a heartier taste but also a light touch due to the fresh yuzu flavor. We came during summer so this was a perfect blend on a hot, summer day.

    Great appetizers and ambiance, ramen was decent. Chicken karaage was generous portions, lightly battered, juicy chicken, perfectly seasoned with a drizzle of lemon. Yaki mochi was a bit salty, but I enjoyed the texture. I thought the ramen options were light in toppings. None of them came with an egg no matter how expensive, so we had to order two eggs. The eggs for me were a bit overcooked and under seasoned. The broth was also ok. The ginger, butter, and miso combination didn't taste harmonious for me, and was almost like an Americanized version of ramen.

    Yuzu Shio & Seasonal Curry Broth Ramen

    It's soup season! What's the best thing to eat during the winter? Soup!!! Finding this restaurant was a little hard because the sign of the restaurant was tiny, so we walked past it a couple of times haha. However, walking in-it was pretty! Service was casual, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Food was great and unique! I like light and refreshing broths, so I decided to try the Yuzu Shio. I've never had anything like this for a ramen and it ended up being so good! I love the citrus base. My brother got the seasonal curry broth ramen. He usually likes his curry ramen to be actual curry because one time he got ramen with curry broth and it was too watery. However, with their ramen, it was watery, but the flavor was still packed! I definitely recommend and would come back!

    Look, this place is just solid. Gotta love the speakeasy style entrance (meaning it's just a door with no real signage) to a very cool ambiance inside. Our waiter was very friendly and accommodating. The only sad part of the experience was that the bartender wasn't working yet so we didn't get to order any specialty cocktails from the bar. That aside, the ramen my wife and I ordered was absolutely delicious. Very tasty broths, nice and chewy noodles, just an all around tasty ramen experience. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention wishing that my ramen was a bit hotter (temperature) but still, can't wait to come back.

    As someone who has pork dietary restrictions, this is the best thing that ever happened to me and my love of ramen. Prior to learning about Ichigoh from of my favorite bartender (George who is also Japanese), i hesitated to go to ramen restaurants. George has never steered me wrong! The first bowl I had here was the Ichigoh special and then, the Niboshi Shoyo which is George's favorite dish. Both of these are immaculate. Also the chicken chasu is a game changer. I havent had 1 thing here that I didn't love. Didn't matter if it was a drink, appetizer, ramen or rice bowl. And the service, is superb! I love the kind and warm welcome and that it really feels like dining someone's home kitchen.

    Special Spicy Miso
    Charity C.

    I was really pleased with my experience here. The staff was very warm and friendly. I tried the Special Spicy Miso and really enjoyed the flavor of the broth and pork belly. My only critique is I like my noodles a little more cooked so I'll request that next time. Otherwise, I have no complaints! The food and portion is good, the service is great. I'll be back.

    Their front door only had a very tiny sign and when it's at night it's even harder to find. We had to tell our Uber driver to wait to make sure it's right place. They were not busy but we did have to wait for them to clean a table before getting seated for our party of 3. We were looking forward to the ramen since it was a freezing night. The decor and lighting had a nice vibe inside. We were hungry so we shared quite a few appetizers. They were all really good, especially the: Seasoned mushrooms Kinoko, Shishito Peppers, Eggplants Nasu Dengaku, Agedashi Tofu & Karaage Fried Chicken. The only one we didn't care for was the fried aged mochi. Note that all the appetizers are small in size so you can explore a few. For raman, I thought it was interesting that they had chicken broth even though it was served with pork belly chashu. I ordered the Ichigoh Miso Special which was unique with ginger and butter. Hubby got the soupless Tan Tan Mazemen and our friend got spicy shoyu. TBH I was so stuffed after all the appetizers that I couldn't finish my ramen even though it was quite tasty. I personally prefer regular pork broth over chicken broth for ramen. We had a nice meal here and service was attentive. Overall I really enjoyed the appetizers more than the ramen.

    Food was great, it was a good comfort food for lunch time. Service was great too. Super kind and quick. The ambiance was nice. Not too crowded during lunch time and the lighting was great in there.

    This place feels hidden in plain site. Located in Deep Ellum you wouldn't know it was there unless you were going to it. It gives it a cool vibe. The decor and lighting feel very classy as well. I like that they had a lot of unique appetizers and ramens to try. I find them to be a bit slow coming around to take orders. When i was ready for the check even though we had been waiting i had to wave someone over. There was also an issue with my check. I was billed for 4 entrees when we only had 3. When i told them about it they argued with me over which the third entree was and which needed to be removed. There was a $1 price difference so i didn't care i just didn't want to pay for 4 bowls of ramen when we only had 3. I ordered the special ramen of the month- black garlic oil pork ribs ramen. It was delish and made people in my party jealous with how good it looked. I added on the egg since it did not come with one. The meat fell off the bone. The chicken in the tori paitan was dry. The broth in all the ramens were very tasty. For appetizers we got the yaki mochi and pork gyoza. The gyoza were good, pretty standard. The mochi was extremely salty. I wish they would indicate on the menu how many pieces you receive with the appetizers. Mochi is hard to split apart with no knife when you have 2 pieces and 3 people. I'm not sure if i would come back here but overall solid experience. I very much enjoyed my ramen.

    Delicious ramen! Some of the best I have had - the spicy Soboro was my favorite. Gyoza was great too.

After…read morecruising Trader Joes, we wandered over for lunch and it was truly a remarkable experience. Our server was attentive, provided us menus and the restaurant's decor created a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that transported me back to Okinawa Japan. After traveling abroad, it is especially refreshing to find authentic Japanese cuisine in the United States, and Hinodeya Ramen truly stands out in that regard. We ordered several katsu curry plates, bento boxes for the children, and started with an order of gyoza as an appetizer. The gyoza arrived crisp on the outside with a juicy filling that we demolished within minutes of being placed on the table. The katsu curry arrived as crispy cutlets paired with a thick, curry sauce that was rich and delicious. The chicken bento boxes contained a variety of vegetables, rice and their selection of proteins. Our meal was flavorful, and absolutely delicious. This establishment also brought back memories for my sister and me of our time serving abroad in Okinawa. The rich flavors, the spicy curry, and the authenticity of the cooking made it feel like a small return to Japan. Finding Japanese food that encompasses those flavors is not easy to find, but this restaurant truly delivered. I highly recommend Hinodeya Ramen for anyone looking for an authentic Japanese dining experience in Dallas. It will absolutely be my go-to spot whenever I'm back in the area!

Place was pretty empty, but again, had just opened its doors for its day! Restaurant was clean and modern. There is a section that has a few stairs, so if you have any accessibility issues I would call ahead and ask for a table on the top part of the restaurant. I asked if they had mimosas in which the server replied they did not. However, she came back shortly after and said they could make an exception! I appreciated that and thought it was a nice gesture. Overall, service was really great and attentive. At no point did our water glasses go empty, and we placed our orders super quick. For lunch, I had the Spicy Creamy V Ramen. My friend had Tonkotsu Black. We also split an order of the French fries. Overall, the ramen was very tasty. It wasn't spicy at all, but I appreciate that JINYA includes sauces on the table to add to your ramen. The toppings (onions, tofu, etc.) were delicious and fresh. I also felt super full after only a few bites and took the rest home - well worth the price! My friend enjoyed his meal as well. The French fries needed a bit more salt, but only if you didn't use the dipping sauces. Which you would be crazy not to do so, as they are delicious. Overall, we enjoyed our trip and would definitely be back for a quick, affordable lunch.

    The food here was INCREDIBLE and well worth the wait. To be transparent, I did wait almost an hour…read morearound dinner time (7pm). The inside is tiny and there isn't even a proper "waiting" area. I've also tried coming here before, and there was also a long wait. I'm glad I decided to stick it out this time. We ordered the Wagyu sushi, Yakitori, Tonkotsu Miso Ramen, and the Tomato Ramen. The Wagyu sushi is torched right in front of you! The Wagyu was incredibly tender and the sauce was delicious. My only *nitpicky* critique is the rice was ever so slightly too moist, but that didn't stop me from inhaling the sushi. Next, the Yakitori was phenomenal. I've never had such tender chicken in my life. There was a nice layer of delicious sauce coating the skewer. Again, just a really nitpicky feedback I have was that I wish the Yakitori had the tiniest bit more char to it, but nevertheless was an incredible bite, and I'd 100% order again in a heartbeat. Onto the ramen - easily hands down one of the best ramen I've had in DFW. The broth is flavorful, and I love the noodles. I'm not sure if they're handmade from scratch, but they had the perfect thickness and chewiness. I also loved generous the portion of cha shu slices. Most other places only give you 1-2 thin slices, but that was not the case here. The pork was tender. The ajitama was solid too, although I prefer more of a soft-boiled egg. While the meat portion is more generous here, the tonkotsu didn't come with many vegetables. A lot of other ramen places I've been to will have corn, fried garlic, etc as default, but those are all additional cost add-ons here. The ramen was delicious without them though but just something to note. We also got the tomato ramen as it's the chef recommendation. The dish is very creative and the execution was great. Personally, I still prefer traditional ramens but it was certainly a nice culinary creation to try. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place and would come here again. Just be aware there may be a wait, and because they're so busy, you do have to proactively flag down staff. However, the staff are still really nice despite all the tasks they're juggling at once.

Parking wasn't bad either, there are lots and a garage nearby. However, the food itself fell flat for me. We ordered the crispy chicken happy hour special, which comes with a side salad. The chicken was on the dry side. Whenever I order Kaarage, it usually comes with a dipping sauce, but there was none here and that would've really helped out. The dressing on the side salad was way too acidic, making it hard to eat as well. In addition, we ordered the takoyaki as an appetizer. The takoyaki themselves were pretty solid, but the texture of the mayo was off. I'm not sure if they make their mayo in-house, but i noticed it was curdled. EDIT: after reading the restaurant's response, the texture I noticed was because it's an egg tartar sauce For the ramen, we ordered Jinya Tonkotsu Black and Creamy Veggie Ramen. Pricing is standard for DFW ramen restaurants, although *slightly* higher than some others (by like $1). The base ramen comes with a good variety of toppings! However, the ramen was just okay. The noodles are on the skinnier side, which I prefer thicker, chewier noodles. The pork chashu serving was small, and it tasted kind of old and wasn't that tender nor flavorful. The broth was just alright. I prefer soft-boiled, jammy ramen eggs, but the ajitama here was cooked longer than I would've liked. Ironically, I thought the veggie ramen was *much* better. The broth had better flavor, and they use different noodles than the tonkotsu, which were thicker (and exactly what I like!). Lastly, we had the matcha tiramisu for dessert. On a positive note, the matcha flavor was detectable. However, the tiramisu crème wasn't that fluffy, and there were noticeable amounts of undissolved sugar.

There was broth all over the edge of the bowl, and I even think the server's finger was in the broth when she dropped it off. Additionally, the ramen was missing the egg, and the noodles were overcooked. One of the waitstaff seemed to be the only one actually working, as he was helping about 95% of the customers in the restaurant. Overall, I highly doubt I will be returning to this location anytime soon.
