    We all have had ramen at home, but have you ever gone to a ramen restaurant? It is definitely way better than the ramen that comes in the little bags. On a cold day, I decided I needed something warm, so I stopped by for lunch. I ordered the seafood gyoza for an appetizer. I loved them. They were perfectly done and had great flavor. I ordered the veggie ramen. I can't say it was the best ramen I have had, but it was ok. It had a weird flour taste to it, but I brought left overs home and added a little bit of siracha and that made it much better. The waitress was attentive. The restaurant has plenty of seating. Parking is available on site, but shared. When you're done with your meal, you pay at the register.

    Miso ramen

    I came with my husband and brother and I am so happy that my brother has a new go to ramen place now! The place was busy and they only had one server on staff that day. However once our server got to us we had such an amazing time! She was super charismatic and helped answer our questions. My favorite of the three ramens we ordered was the tonkatsu. The broth was perfect and very light which is rare for ramen. The miso was also really tasty. It's more flavorful and salty than the tonkatsu. The last of the bunch was the chicken ramen. I probably won't order that next time because it wasn't my favorite, however my brother and husband said they preferred the other ramens but still wouldn't mind eating this. Do order their raspberry hibiscus ice tea! It was divine! I ordered a cup to go because I still wanted more! All in all, we had such a good time and we will definitely be coming back next time we visit!

    The ramen was a great treat for someone who's battling any illness. I had the ramen with tempera shrimp and it hit the spot!

    We went to JY Ramen after my mom's appointments for dinner. The ambiance is great ( the music wasn't playing well but that didn't ruin the mood or the food). We ordered and our food came out in less than 10 mins. We came in around 630-7 pm on a Friday with maybe four families including ours. There was only one waitress the whole night. She definitely deserves a raise as well as the cook! The food was so good. We ordered two bowls of tonkatsu ramen and then one of the udon noodle bowls. The soup is tasty and very authentic tasting. The noodles were chewy and the bowl was filled to the top! We asked for extra nori and eggs midway of finishing our bowls. Overall, had a wonderful experience and cannot wait to go back.

    Shoyu Ramen with sweet red tea
    Steph J.

    The Shoyu ramen is good. My husband wasn't impressed saying we could've made this at home for $1 I thought it was good- fancier than making it at home. I'd come here again. The place is really cute and nicely decorated and clean. The restrooms are clean too which I'm big on. The waitress was SO sweet. I wish I got her name. I have to say, the red tea is SO good! And the seafood gyoza is delicious

    We were looking for a ramen place and we're pleasantly surprised when we stumbled upon this place. When we got there the place wasn't that busy but it was busy by the time we left. All three dishes we had were good as well as the red sweet tea. The waiter (didn't get his name) did a good job keeping up with serving the entire restaurant. We will be back and will tell our friends about this place.

    Jy Ramen was an absolute delicious surprise. Located at a business park in the medical center you can miss in a blink of an eye. I would call it a hidden gem. Our waiter was so pleasant and welcoming. I had the Miso Ramen paired with a hot jasmine tea. Both delicious and aesthetically beautiful. The ambiance was zen and very spacious. I would highly recommend this place for anyone in search of some delicious ramen in the northwest side. I will definitely be back.

    My first visit and only one waitress. She was so sweet and very attentive to me and my girls. She explained the dishes on the menu and did not disappoint. The noodles were so tasty!!! Pork and kid's chicken were very pleasing! I highly recommend this place on a cold or hot day!

    S01-Seafood Gyoza
    Aylin P.

    Visiting from New Orleans - Looking at places with great reviews and this one popped up. It's a little hole in the wall place near some shops. It's cute on the inside, we were the only two inside on a Friday night around 8 PM. We ordered some gyoza, yakisoba, and ramen - all pictured below. Everything was hot and portioned nicely, just lacking in flavor for us!

    Much nicer on the inside than it appears from the outside. Being unfamiliar with the menu, the waitress was helpful in my decision. I ordered a seaweed salad and a seafood udon. It arrived quickly and I liked the combination of different flavors in the Udon. The large rice noodles were much better to me than standard ramen noodles. I would visit again when on this side of town

    Cynthia T.

    Very pleasantly surprised with this place. It's simple, close by, and affordable. It lacks a pretentious vibe I always get at another spot I won't name, and instead just seems pretty humble and down to earth. Their menu is pretty limited, but there's bound to be something you'll enjoy. Since I have a full-blown cold, I needed some ramen to help me warm up. I ordered the miso bowl and it was very filling and yummy. Had I not been sick I would have said it was heavy-handed with the ginger, but since ginger is good for you when you're sick, I ate that up real quick. The location is fantastic. There are a lot of neat places to visit in this shopping center, including the one I'm more familiar with across the street. Overall, I'm very happy with the food and people here. I want to come back.

I had never eaten here before so I was really excited to try it and I'm so glad they brought me here because every single thing we tried was absolutely delicious! We sat outside on the patio, there was a nice breeze, and it wasn't too hot, and there weren't too many people out there, which was nice. Our server was great, she checked on us just enough, but not so much that it was bothersome. Off of the happy hour menu we ordered the shrimp and we love them so much we ordered a second one. We also ordered seaweed salad, which was delicious, pork dumplings, which were perfect, and the ginger, garlic beef with tempura sweet potato fries, and that was really good. I just wish that it wasn't ground beef because it was a little bit hard to get with chopsticks. We ordered a Philadelphia roll, and I cannot remember the names of the other two but one of them had yellow fish. (Sashimi I think) everything was wonderful and tasted super fresh. For a dessert we wanted to be daring and ordered the black sesame crème brûlée and it was absolutely wonderful! Not what I was expecting at all, the flavor was great, and the sesame seed was not overbearing. I can't wait to go back and try the Ramen and definitely dig back in to all of the awesome offerings on the happy hour menu!

For ramen, I recommend the "red" Aka Fuku. For udon noodles, the tofu was delicious as well if you need a vegetarian option. There is a small kids' menu and other non-noodles traditional Japanese dishes available as well. For drinks, there are the standard soft drink options, hot teas(or cold), beer, and wine. The atmosphere is very casual, but not to the point of feeling like a rushed lunch hour. It was not very crowded on our visit, but I noticed they probably get more to-go orders than seated service. Hoka Hoka Fuku is an excellent choice in the area if you're looking to have Japanese food. I can't wait to go back and try this place for dinner.

Delicious rich broth and added some sriracha for a kick. Ramen noodles were ok, but would have preferred my fave, udon. I just love the thicker noodles.
