So glad that we made it into Ivan Ramen at the Venetian food hall and honestly...this whole setup is just fun. Constant motion, people everywhere, options in every direction...perfect spot when you're with a group or just don't feel like committing to one vibe. Even the picky eaters are covered. Started with the Spicy Kyuri Pickles and yeah, these showed up. Big flavor, really well seasoned, and they don't play it safe on the heat. Not overwhelming, but there's definitely a kick that lingers in a good way. Gyoza was next and felt like a step up from the usual. Great pork filling, super flavorful, lightly pan fried with that perfect crisp on the bottom. Heads up though...the spice sneaks up on you. First bite feels easy, then it builds. Worth it, just know what you're getting into. Left full, a little surprised (in a good way), and already thinking about coming back to dig into more of the menu. This is the kind of spot you circle back to. read more

This place changed my opinion on Ramen!!! I had ramen before but somehow it never was to my liking. That is until I arrived to Ivan Ramen. I explained my taste and likings to these kind folks and they made recommendation: have Tonkotsu but with ground pork instead of pork belly. .... Omg - was this good!!! Service was phenomenal and food was delicious. It is located in food court but still it is awesome. Not too loud , and very clean!!! After visit here - I am officially Ramen lover now!!!! read more

SPICE ALERT!!! Authentic Ramen dishes. Located inside the Via Via Hall inside the Venetian hotel this spot will not disappoint. A super trendy food hall with options for everyone. If you can't handle spice, even if you think you can handle juuuust a little, do not get the spicy ramen. If you're a heat-a-holic, get the spicy ramen!!! I recommend getting the combo meal so you can taste an appetizer. The gyoza was perfect amount of crisp to softness ratio. Plenty of seating for big or small groups. Service was quick. A little hard to hear them call when your order is ready, they could be a little louder or have a number display system. read more

I was excited to see that the famous Ivan Ramen from NYC was here at the Via Via food hall inside the Venetian. It's a casual quick service version of the actual restaurant, so you order at the counter and seat yourself. The menu consists of mostly ramen, a couple of rice bowls and a few appetizers. We ordered the Tokyo Shoyu ($19) and Chicken Paitan ($21). Between the two, the Tokyo Shoyu ramen was better with a light dashi-chicken broth, pork, soft-boiled egg and roasted tomato. It was tasty and the egg was cooked well. The Chicken Paitan was spicier than expected given it only had chicken broth, minced chicken, crispy chicken skin and egg yolk in it. I've had other chicken paitans that were better. I wasn't expecting it to be exactly like the real thing, but I thought it would be better. The ramen broths were very salty and not in a craveable way. It's fine if you want ramen in a pinch but I probably wouldn't get it again. read more

Located in the Via Via food court. I will say, the other options in the food court are very enticing and likely better but if craving ramen, this is fine enough. Overall, a mediocre bowl of ramen, but the convenience is hard to beat. They did the soft boiled egg well, and had yummy woodear mushrooms which I enjoyed. I also liked that it had pickled veg. The noodles looked buck-wheaty which I didn't mind. The broth is bland though. Definitely not traditional or GOOD ramen for LA standards, but was good enough. Service is fast and was one of the few locations that didn't have line. Ambiance is food court vibes. I'd give it 3.5 stars if I could. read more

Ivan Ramen - Tonkotsu - Noodles Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Ivan Ramen located in the via via food court. Walk up, order, have a seat- tables or the bar, and they call your name when your order is ready. Get your food and enjoy. Casual spot, but was nice. We got combos so we tried the following- Tonkotsu ramen- friend really enjoyed this one. Good flavors, whole thing finished. Spicy miso ramen- I loved the spice to this one, but for the sake of others, they could warn it's actually spicy. It's really spicy if I can taste it, haha. Not sure if it's always like this, but a lot of the flavors are the spice and I wasn't too fond of the heaviness of the thicker broth with ground meat. Gyoza- looks crispy-ish, but a bit on the oily soggy end. Otherwise it was pretty good. Soy garlic Chicken wings- could have used some more crispiness, but otherwise tasty. For the drinks in our combo, we got water. Evian. Fancy lol. I rather go elsewhere for ramen going forward, but glad I finally got to try Ivan ramen. read more

Overall cool vibe, but the chicken bowl was just ok. The fried chicken was nice and crunchy, tender, but the chicken was drenched in sauce. The sauce was a bit sour vinegary flavor that was not an enhancement. There were somewhat looked like Korean pickles. The onsen egg was good. There were three different fried chicken items on the menu, but when I asked the person taking my order how they are prepared and to describe them, she could tell me anything but they are pretty similar. Maybe all three were the exact same thing with different names? read more

Ivan Ramen - Japanese fried chicken bowl - Noodles Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Got the Tokyo Shio, their signature dish, special thin rye noodles, clean dashi chicken broth. Standard pork belly paired with the unique roasted tomato, and perfectly soft cooked egg. Great satisfying but light dinner before a show. No line (maybe not the best sign) but food came out super quick. I know this probably wasn't quite like the real restaurant in NYC but glad I got to try it. It was a pretty small bowl which was fine for the occasion but you probably want to order appetizers or another main if you've got an appetite. read more

Not to sure what I expected- service was pleasant, informative and helpful. Hubby came up with a couple of bowls for the kids and they were enjoying it so we decided to settle on a bowl as well. I went down to order and didn't want to get 2 of the same bowl. He made great recommendations. I got the spicy bowl but subbed chicken. Omg maybe I'm not used to spicy but I should have checked the level of spice before agreeing. My mouth lips and ass where all on fire within 10mins. The regular chicken bowls I would say are ok just basic ramen nothing too special for any of it. I will say their eggs were perfectly cooked. read more

I wasn't even in the mood for ramen, but the pork chashu rice totally hit the spot. I ended up ordering a side of the ramen broth, which was just as satisfying. Overall, a great meal--I'd definitely come back. ENJOY! PS: In the food court area at the Venetian. read more

We were inside the Venetian, and we were famished. We found a food court, which had many great options. Ordering at the kiosk at Ivan was super easy. The Tonkatsu Ramen $20 was delicious, made to order. The broth was nice and hearty. Lots of green onions, pickled mustard greens - the pork was tender and every bite was delicious! The Ivan chicken karaage $15 was very good too - well seasoned and perfectly fried. To me, it was just a well seasoned friend chicken pieces, it was lacking the balance of sweet and salty flavors of karaage. Not much of an ambiance here. It's a food court and you serve yourself. Like all the Vegas food courts we've been to, there are no hydration stations. You have to buy bottled water. I'll come back again. read more

This review is for their giant Yuzu Shaved Ice "Kakigori", which is big enough to share with 2 to 6 people. Although it was just 2 of us... haha They are located inside the new Via Via food court at The Venetian. While their specialty is ramen, we were looking for some yummy dessert instead. I love yuzu anything so their yuzu dessert menu caught my eyes. I just had to get it even if it's winter right now. It takes 15 min for their kitchen to make this. Giant fluffy shaved ice with thick yuzu pudding layered right in the middle of the shaved ice, with condensed milk drizzle all over it, and yuzu candies & cookie crumbles sprinkled around the side of the shaved ice. But wait, we are not done here? The guy brought out a blow torch! He put a big glob of marshmallow on top of the shaved ice and torch it. Making it a master piece. Overall, a giant refreshing yuzu ice heaven. Yum! read more

Another option at Via Via food hall in The Venetian. Honestly, we don't care for Ramen and I don't see necessarily how it fits in with what I think of as food hall food... something you grab for a quick bite before going back out on the casino floor. But we were able to find some things to try here for just such a between-gambling break. We shared the Schmaltz Fried Goyza ($13), the Waygu Pastrami Buns ($14), the Japanese Fried Chicken ($15) and a small draft beer, which I think was around $11. The Goyza was pretty good - similar to anything you'd get at millions of American Chinese restaurants. I really didn't like the Pastrami Buns at all, but I'm not a big pastrami fan so that probably had something to do with it. I also hate sauerkraut, so this is NOT for me. If you love a good pastrami sandwich, you'll like this. We thought the Fried Chicken was very similar to something you'd find at Panda Express. Nothing wrong with that. If you enjoy Ramen, you'll find something to like here I'm sure. Like all the options at Via Via, it's clean and service is prompt. read more

For those who enjoy ramen, this spot hits the mark. Flavors are solid, portions are generous and it even makes for a great hangover cure. Located inside the Venetian with little to no wait when I went at 1 PM on a Sunday. * Tonkotsu Ramen ($19) - 8/10 Hearty serving of noodles and broth. Comes with all the standard toppings you'd expect from ramen shops in cities like NY or the Bay Area. Also thought this was worth sharing. I saw an extremely intoxicated guest spill his entire tray of ramen right after pick up. The staff immediately came over with towels. Cleaned everything up and even offered him a replacement bowl without hesitation. Great food. Even better service! read more

Loved Ivan Orkin's story on Netflix Chef's Table and the fact that he is also a fellow CIA(Culinary Institute of America)graduate. He knows food, and especially ramen(He had 2 successful Ramen shops in Tokyo until 2012 when he moved back to NYC with his family)so when he opened up at Venetian's new Via Via Food Hall, a visit was planned. We got the Wagyu Pastrami Bao Buns($14), Tonkotsu Ramen($19), and Ivan Palmer-yuzu lemonade and barley tea($6) to share. It was crowded and there was a line, but it moved fast. We already had 2 seats at the counter so it was all good. That tonkotsu is some of the better tasting in town IMHO. Ramen-5/5 Pastrami Bao Buns-4/5 Ivan Palmer 5/5 Strip prices... it is what it is. Would I come back? Yes. Don't understand the low reviews. Probably Ramen rookies who prefer Buldak or Maruchan LOL!!!! read more

I came, I saw, Ivan. Ivan Ramen is a renowned ramen shop from New York City. This is the Venetian's attempt to transport that magic to a food hall just off their casino floor. I have seen some success at a similar food hall at the Cosmopolitan, so I was optimistic about this place despite the mixed reviews on Yelp so far. It was easy to find the Via Via Food Hall from the Venetian self-parking. After going down the main escalator to the casino floor (Grand Lux should be on your right at the bottom), it was a quick left and a short walk away. There was no line, perhaps since it was well past the lunch rush hours, and I was able to order quickly at the counter. The food took about 10 minutes to prepare, so I wouldn't quite classify this place as "fast casual." While waiting, I sipped on their Yuzu Lemonade (rang up as $5.00), and I was pleasantly surprised at how intense it was. It did resemble yuzu, and they topped it off with some soda water which was a fun touch. It did come with a decent amount of ice, so it's not an exceptional deal, but I'd say it's more than reasonable for the Strip. I went with the Tonkotsu ramen ($19.00), which is the main kind of broth which I tend to order. The broth did come out pretty creamy, but more importantly it was delicious and did not end taste too salty on either the first or last slurp. The thin noodles were medium in firmness, which is fine with me. The thick, gargantuan slab of chashu was perfectly tender throughout, but somehow the fat part of it didn't even feel too fatty. The soft-boiled egg (two halves, not just one) was pretty good although it could've been marinated a bit more. The wood ear mushrooms, green onions, and even the diced pickled mustard greens were all tasty and useful toppings. The portion is somewhat modest overall, but I still loved what I got. The Cold Sesame Noodles ($19.00) are an interesting option too. It has thin noodles, shredded chicken, lots of sesame seeds to garnish, and a nutty sesame sauce in the bowl (note: mix the bowl thoroughly to get said sauce). It also has a lot of heat from the piquillo peppers and especially the Thai chilis. I found it hard to take more than a couple bites at a time before dripping with sweat. Others may have better tolerance, so order this at your own risk. I had a great meal at Ivan Ramen. I would easily rank the tonkotsu as top 3 if not higher within the current Las Vegas ramen scene, so I would come back for it. The pricing is also pretty reasonable for the Strip. Definitely come try this spot if you're a ramen fan, and note that parking is free for up to 3 hours for Nevada locals (except for event pricing, so check the Sphere concert calendar before going). read more

Ivan Ramen is located in the Via Via Food Court on the Casino Floor in the Venetian Casino/Hotel. They offer traditional and non traditional with twist Japanese style foods. I heard about their amazing "Made in House" WAGYU PASTRAMI Bao Buns so we had to give them a try. They accidentally burnt our order and said they will make is a new order. The new order came out and it was over cooked, next to burnt (pastrami) and also was an unusually scant amount of pastrami in the Bao Buns. Latter I showed my husband a Yelp picture of the Wagyu Pastrami Bao Buns from the New York Location. He said if he saw what they are suppose to look like then he wouldn't have accepted the ones we got and would have asked for his money back. I have contacted the New York Ivan Ramen Location about this. Good Luck! read more

Ivan Ramen comes to Venetian from Ivan Orkin of NYC. His original spot was featured on Netflix chef's table. Was happy to see that the Venetian brought them into their new food court. I ordered their tonkatsu broth and the best thing about it were the thin noodles, which had a nice chew. The broth had a pretty nice garlic taste; however, it wasn't as rich as other tonkatsu broths that I've had. The piece of pork chashu was pretty thick and meaty. The eggs had a nice, creamy yolk. Overall, it was an okay bowl of ramen. read more

Ivan Ramen - Tonkotsu ramen - Noodles Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Ivan Ramen opened their second location in Las Vegas, in the Venetian hotel specifically at the Via Via food hall. Ivan was the first Western foreigner to open a ramen shop in Japan, where his Shio Ramen was given the nod of approval. So I had to get the Tokyo Shio Ramen. How was it? It was good. Definitely one of the better shio ramen I've had. The broth was light and perfectly seasoned. Salty, umami, great chicken flavor, and some fishy funkiness (which some may dislike). One thing about ramen is, depending on the bowl, it can have flavors of fishiness and ocean due to ingredients used (dried fish and fish flakes, kelp, etc.). It's sort of like if you've never had fish sauce before, it may turn you off at first. The fatty aroma oil coats your mouth. His toasted rye noodles (rye is not used for the usual ramen noodles), was more chewy than the usual noodles, but it still had a good bite. I also got the pastrami bao (comes with 2), and it was alright. Strong salty beef pastrami balanced by sauerkrat/pickled onions. It's paired with a nice thousand island-like sauce. All in a soft bun. To be honest, I'd say you can pass on this. You're already paying around $18 for a bowl of ramen, its not worth adding another $14 for an okay bao imo. My wife had their Sesame Noodles, and it was pretty good. It's served cold/chilled, which is super cooling and refreshing after a long day of walking in the sun. Great sesame and umami flavor. I would warn though, the chilli oil in this bowl is on the spicier side. A side note, please ignore the guy who gave the 1 star review complaining about his bowl being served ice cold. I assume he got this bowl, and that's how it's supposed to be served. read more

Average at best. Ramen broth was watered down and soupy, not rich with flavor. The noodles were so average. The chicken karage tasted like it was chicken with filler. Staff was working hard to meet the demand, liked their energy. Not sure I'd return to have it again. read more

Flavor is good but a bit too salty and missing traditional ramen ingredients on toppings. I wish they use traditional ramen noodles too. Their noodles are pretty thin. Portion is a bit small for the prices but overall ok if you are looking for a ramen place nearby. read more

Viva Via Food Hall is definitely an elevated food experience, and I appreciate the culinary talent behind the different food counters like Ivan Ramen. I stopped by for a quick bite yesterday evening and purchased the Japanese fried chicken. I'm not really sure what toasted garlic caramel and togarashi is but the flavors just weren't there for me. Kind of sweet kind of tangy but overall, I just couldn't get with it. The "ranch" 0/10 absolutely terrible it was off in a not so good way. $15 bucks read more

Ivan Ramen is located at Via Via Food Hall inside The Venetian Las Vegas. Menu offers a nice selection of appetizer, entrées, dessert, as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. I had a meal prior and wanted something refreshing. I chose unsweetened barley tea ($6), it's good. They also have yuzu lemonade and Ivan Palmer which is a blend of yuzu lemonade topped with barley tea. Service from Mary Grace is so nice, attentive, friendly, and helpful! They have dessert, Yuzu Kakigori ($22) which is Japanese shaved ice with yuzu curd, meringue, ritz crumble, and yuzu zest, it's a generous serving for 2 to 4 people, I'm hoping they offer a smaller portion for one order because that shaved ice looks massive! read more

Highly recommend this restaurant the food is amazing! They are a low key spot at a food court in this location but in NY they do have a restaurant.

This location is small but worth it. read more

Not good. Spicy miso ramen was cold and tasted "off". Took two bites and throwing away. Gross.

Tried some of my boyfriend's Mom's food and this place was pretty good! Gyoza had a nice crisp and a small kick of heat - I enjoyed it. The cha siu bowl was extremely flavorful and the meat was tender - I would say less sauce would be better though. Overall, a tasty meal and I'd recommend this place :) read more

Was in the area so we stopped by the food court and I decided I wanted Ramen. I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen. I loved the pork silky broth. In addition, I loved the tender chashu.

During a recent trip I decided to give Ivan a try. I went to the NYC location many years ago and remember liking it. Maybe it was the location or maybe it's just gone downhill in general but the ramen I got (Tonkatsu) was one of the worst I've ever had. I know the whole purpose is to be 'different' but in this way. The noodles had no texture, the broth was uneventful and the pork was poorly flavored. The service was decently quick and the seating is shared with 5 or 6 other places. If you're a fan of ramen I would remove this from your list. read more

I stopped by Ivan Ramen at The Venetian and only tried the Tonkotsu Ramen--but wow, what a first impression. The broth was rich, creamy, and packed with umami, the noodles had that perfect chew, and the pork was melt-in-your-mouth tender. The service was great--friendly, attentive, and quick. The place is spotless, and watching the cooks work their magic right in front of you adds an extra layer of excitement to the whole experience. I'm giving 4.2 stars only because I didn't try more of the menu (yet!). I can't wait to come back and explore the other ramen and sides. If one bowl was this good, I know the rest will be amazing. read more
