This is our go-to place for a celebratory meal. We are always greeted in a very friendly manner as soon as we enter the restaurant. The waitstaff are always attentive and polite and come back to our table to make sure we are happy with our food and if we need anything else. We love the music and vibe of the restaurant. It's always very clean and that's awesome because it's always busy when we eat there. The food is so so good. I am so happy this location is in Baxter, since Japanese cuisine is our absolute favorite. I haven't tried anything there that I didn't like. My fiancé has had quite a few different Ramen bowls and has loved each of them. The buns are our favorite appetizer. If you love Japanese cuisine and are in the Brainerd Lakes area, this is definitely a must!! read more

Good food, great service and quiet place to sit. We had a service animal with us, and they were very accommodating of our needs.

One of the best sushi raamen restaurants in Town, I had the ippin ramen the broth was really good, I was hungry though! Not to mention also did the Energy roll, if you like Unagi, get this, can't go wrong with this one. Our waitress was really quick also, and very polite, went through the menu with us and answered our questions with what was in the rolls etc. The indoor vibe is overall really nice, it was quiet when we went, and I definitely look forward to coming back next time we drive through Minnesota! read more

Outstanding Ramen and Sushi Restaurant!!! The service was very friendly and amazing. The host of the restaurant seated us and always made sure we were being taken care of. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice and warm. The food is out of this world. I love sushi and ramen and I think I have found my new favorite ramen and sushi restaurant. The crispy chicken ramen is very balanced as to the broth and food. The broth is so good I could just drink it straight, and the veggies are so fresh! I also got the Mountain Roll, and there are so many delicious flavors compacted in one bite! This restaurant is exactly what the area needs, and I would highly recommend Ippin Ramen and Sushi Restaurant to anyone. If you love ramen or sushi you will love this place, or if you have never tried it before you need to try it! I can't wait until my next visit!!! read more

Ippin Raman may be a bit on the pricey side, but if you want quality sushi and delicious Raman, this is the place to go in town. Our server was on top of drinks, and right there when we needed anything else. The building was beautifully decorated and the booths were very comfortable. The wasabi is quite potent, so make sure you're ready to feel it in your soul when you take a bite with their fresh ginger. read more

So happy to have a quality sushi place in the area. This place is legit! We are serious sushi fans and have eaten at some of the best sushi places in the country. We have a cabin in the area and in the past have had to take a sushi hiatus for the summer but no more! The menu offers a large selection of rolls (should out to the Baxter roll and the Super Dragon Roll and the Snow White roll) that are HUGE. The sushi offerings (fish on rice) are not extensive but we ordered a sushi assortment and all the fish was fresh and tender. We didn't try the ramen or cooked offerings but they looked good as the servers brought them by. The service is attentive and the atmosphere is pleasant. We will be back for sure. read more

Great Sushi and I love Sushi. If you can't find what you want they are more than willing to create whatever you want. Found out they serve liquor now. When I was there they had yet to obtain the license. The service was very accomdating. THe guys rolling the sushi are very fun and do a great job rolling the sushi. The owner I have talked to a couple times, very nice man. He is doing a great job. I am just so happy that I finally found a great sushi place to go to Imoved up here 27 years ago no sushi anywhere soI learned how to make them myself. But I had to go to cities to find quality seafood that wasnt frozen and over priced in the lakes area. If you like sushi i reccomend you go there, You will not be disappointed. read more

The interior is spatious, bathrooms are clean, and the decor looks authentic which is always a good start when you go into an Asian restaurant in the middle of rural Minnesota. Ordered the Kara age and char siu ramen while in Brainerd for a bachelor's party weekend with some friends. The service was good, server got our orders correct and food got to us speedily. Kara age was good and ramen was excellent, the broth was flavorful and savory and had lots of char siu. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more

Food and service was great! Food was spot on and the wait time was as they quoted. Look forward to have dinner again when in town. Thank you

Wife and I are desperate for a good sushi place to add some culinary excitement to our life in beautiful lake country. I think we have found it! Service was very good with friendly staff. On a Saturday night, the rolls were tight and well constructed, yellowfin sashimi was very good quality, great saki selection. Interior is clean with nice art. We can't wait to come back and try the Ramen and other menu selections. Hoping they add Hamachi Kama and Negihama rolls to the menu, we would be there every week! Oh, and a little warmer on the Hot saki read more

Very friendly staff-greeting everyone on arrival and quick to take dining order. Atmosphere was laid back and dining room was decorated nicely. We ordered a few different items from the menu, and we were slightly under-impressed. Shrimp ramen was lacking in flavor and bland, sushi rolls also were very bland and lacking in flavor. The steamed pork bun was the win of the meal! Fried calamari from appetizer menu was fried nicely, but was very chewy on the inside and over cooked. (See photos for the food!) read more

Very good food and service. Definitely will be back. Nice to have a good ramen place in Brainerd read more

I have been here once to dine-in and once for take-out. Every time the food is amazing no matter what you get. Servings are quite large and normally have two meals worth of food from one dish. Wonderful service that is willing to accommodate to larger groups at last minute. The ambiance is great and very relaxing. Very different from other Asian food places in Brainerd Baxter area. Would highly recommend going here. read more

The food is very quickly served. The ramen is excellent. We also enjoyed the spring rolls. The staff are very happy and helpful.

So cute what they did inside. Great food - huge bowls. And you have to try the stuffed jalapeños. Noah did a great job serving our family. Will be back soon to try sushi. read more
