This was my first time having "real" ramen and I wasn't disappointed. The server was very knowledgeable and made great suggestions. I settled on the Tonkotsu Black and added shrimp, as well as, cabbage. It was absolutely delicious and very fulfilling, I look forward to trying more ramen. read more

Kami Ramen Bar - Tonkotsu Black Ramen with shrimp and cabbage - Ramen Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Service was excellent! Super quick and very attentive. It was a busy Saturday night and we were seated in a timely manner forsure! The spring rolls and pork gyoza for an appetizer were really good! I didn't love the special shrimp tempura it was mediocre but that's just my opinion. The spicy shrimp and spicy chicken ramen bowls were so flavorful and filling!! It was such a nice rainy cozy Saturday night dining experience, I will definitely be back! Also the drinks were really strong which is a plus in my book!!!! read more

Kami Ramen Bar - Ramen Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

This was our second visit to Kami and it was terrific! The first time we experienced some service issues, but since they had just opened, we decided to give it another try. We started off with steamed shumai and pork gyoza. Both were good, but nothing to write home about. The ramen - through 3/31/21, they have a spicy shrimp ramen special, which is what I ordered. While the shrimp did get overcooked in the broth, the dish overall was AMAZING. It had a good balance of flavors, and the spice level was not too much. I did add some extra chili oil, since I am addicted to the stuff, and it was perfect! A nice gentle heat to bring out the other components of the dish. The broth though.....I wish they sold it in gallon sized containers! I hope they make this bowl of ramen a permanent option on their menu, although as I stated earlier, they need to find another way to incorporate the shrimp into the bowl since they get overcooked and rubbery very quickly. My wife had the pork miso ramen, which is what we both had on our first experience here. The chashu pork was delicious, and the broth was perfect. I do wish they offered a spicy miso ramen bowl which would be the perfect bowl of ramen! We did order the kids chicken entree, which was panko crusted chicken thigh pieces. While I was a bit upset at the price (8.95) for a kids meal, the chicken had a good flavor, but the balance of chicken to french fries was way off. They now have a full bar and their liquor license in hand. The only suggestion is to offer Asahi Extra Dry, which complements ramen perfectly. We cannot wait to return to Kami! read more

The broth is always delicious. It is one of the few ramen bowls I've had that require nothing to be added

Good food and friendly atmosphere.  We went to the restaurant on recommendation of a local relative.  We waited 30 min to get a table so the place was busy on a Thursday.  The atmosphere was warm and charming.  I ordered the vegan ramen bowl and my table had an assortment of items including things from French Fries (I know, right?) to bao buns.  The bao buns were light and airy, not wet or slimy.  Still not my deal but they did them well and they were a reasonable price.  The egg rolls had an excellent sauce with them that I would recommend.  My ramen bowl was good and had great flavor. The only critique I would give is that the noodles tasted mass produced so not the most authentic I have had.  The waiter (one of three I saw working at the time plus the person seating patrons) was not as attentive as I would have liked and I had to remind him to get things more than once and after a long wait in between.  Prices were reasonable for the area but not cheap.  The restaurant did well overall and worth trying. read more

Only get delivery, but the black garlic ramen is incredibly good. Totally worth the price.

We love kami ramen bar. This is the second time we've gone and both times have been very pleased. The dishes are generous and beautifully presented. The kami bun has a fun and light texture. Both times we have ordered something with soft shell crab and it is quite decadent. The wait is never to long and the servers pay enough attention to give you what you need but not be annoying. read more

Was unfortunately unable to eat here today. Hostess quoted 20-30 min wait time for a party of 7. There is a section of the restaraunt with reconfigurable seating and a section without configurable seating. We watched as 4 parties came in and were seated in the configurable section ahead of us. This made seating us impossible. After 70 minutes and multiple times checking in we decided to leave. We informed the staff why and that we had observed the other parties being seated. Recommend the manager provide training to hostesses on how to manage seating which parties where in order to prevent this from happening in the future. read more

I selected this place based on Yelp reviews. Customer service was great. I ordered carry out. I chose the spicy chicken ramen and was not impressed. The chicken broth had a nice flavor but the three huge chunks of chicken were plain and the ramen noodles were what you'd get from packaged ramen instead of fresh. I couldn't even finish it. The marinated egg was tasty. I'm not interested in trying this place again. I added cilantro to this dish. The broth is not included in this photo. read more

I seriously love this place! So happy Memphis has a great ramen place now. I was really shocked of the quality of the meats and soup. I got the miso tonkatsu and it was delicious! The portions were huge and I was super satisfied after. The pork was tender and came with a decent amount. The broth was tasty and wasn't too salty surprisingly. My friend and I also shared the takoyaki appetizer and it was great. They're fried squid balls and had these sauces on top. Our server was really kind and helpful. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the decor of this place. Such a great addition to Memphis and will definitely be coming back in the near future. read more

Maybe I'm just not a ramen guy. Good ramen, healthy portions; if I was in the right noodle mood this would be my go to. But I don't have a strong reaction to their treatment of ramen, nor enough experience with ramen as a whole to pick out the exceptional, which there may be some here, versus the very good, which there most certainly is. read more

Ramen was okay. It was kinda mid. But the place is cute and waiter was nice.Kami Tonkotsu Ramen

Located in a large shopping center outside a Target, this place serves up some ramen that rivals that of NYC ramen bars. I had the creamy and spiced vegan ramen and it was crazy good! Service was quick and accurate as expected. The place is a Little dark and about what you'd expect for a ramen bar. No thrills. Ramen is around $13 and you can fill up on that. We also had a chicken appetizer and edamame, both just fine. Check this place out. It's awesome. read more

Just came across this restaurant earlier this week for their soft opening. I just gotta say, this place is incredible. From service to what they offer in the table. I have zero complaint. This restaurant can be a great place to grab a quick lunch or drop by for a date. .. and the way they decorate the interior is pretty nice. Check them out. read more

I'm not really a ramen expert, but this is a great place to get it! Everything I've had here was delicious. The atmosphere is a bit quirky, but not off-putting. Friendly staff. The funny thing is that from the facade (strip mall) you wouldn't guess that food this good was behind it. I have brought New Yorkers here. They enjoyed and I highly recommend it. read more

It's always good to eat here from time to time. There are very few restaurants in Memphis that serve Ramen and this is probably the best we have so far. It's improved greatly from when it opened. The Black Tonkatsu is what we normally order along with some Kami Buns. We recently tried the gyu-Don and it was actually really good. Highly recommend it if you're feeling Ramen. read more

No complaints at all, the food and drinks was prepared in good timing. I tried the Slurp Up Cilantro Ramen and it was really good.

Always get an extra marinated egg. It is so good, and perfectly marinated. The tonkotsu black is a fan favorite, but my personal favorite is the spicy harvest vegetarian ramen-- the flavors are just immaculate. Ask for the thick noodles read more

I don't know if it's because I've been to straight up better options(Like Three Fold in Little Rock), but the food here simply is not that good. It's not *bad* but it definitely is not as good as these other reviews are saying. I'm talking about the main Ramen dishes. They do have other options like their Kami buns which are outstanding and their octopus balls as well. But yeah the main ramen bowls simply are not up to par with other restaurants that do it better. Giving it 3 stars because it's super mediocre. The restaurant is nice and I love the atmosphere and the staff is very helpful and nice. But the noodles taste identical to instant noodles. Best way I can describe the taste is it feels like it's *almost* there if that makes sense. If you have had authentic ramen before then I'd stay away. If you haven't then you won't have anything to compare it to and you should enjoy yourself. read more

Kami Ramen Bar - 4. Chicken Curry Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

This is the place to go for Ramen! Service was friendly and prompt ... especially for a lunch.

I've wanted to try this place out for forever because I love ramen and I love the ramen places in L.A. but I was quite wary that I would be disappointed since there's not much competition here for ramen spots. I was at PetSmart, placed my order and 15 minutes later I hopped over to Alamo and my order was ready. I was pleasantly surprised at the quickness of my order. When I got home and unpackaged everything I again was pleasantly surprised because they knew how to pack the items. I ordered: cha siu bao (own container), vegan creamy spicy ramen (noodles and veggies in one bowl and broth in another), and panko chicken curry with steamed rice (curry sauce packaged separately. I plated everything up myself and took a few bites of everything before finishing off the bao and ramen noodles. I saved the curry for my lunch the next day. I also saved the broth so that I could re purpose it. The highlight was the vegan ramen which came with raw onions, cooked tofu, and spinach with lots of garlic. If you love garlic, this is it. In L.A. you can request a garlic press and garlic. The fresh garlic really adds to the already delicious ramen. This vegan ramen with all the garlic was the showstopper. I was very impressed. I'm not a ramen connoisseur, but I thought it was pretty dang good. The cha siu bao came with a slice of cha siu, baby spring salad mix, and Japanese Mayo. I thought it was all right. I wanted more flavor in the cha siu though. I thought the bread muted the cha soy flavor. The curry sauce was nice and smooth and the chicken was perfectly cooked, not dry and no crust falling off. I will definitely be going back again. read more

Kami Ramen Bar - Ramen Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

This place is good enough for the area. The broth is flavorful, and the portions are huge compared to the Bay Area. However, they use top ramen-like noodles (instant noodles), so this throws off the taste of the dish. It would be better if they had ramen noodles. Maybe ramen noodles aren't available in the area? And each bowl came with a half-boiled egg. It should be a soft-boiled egg. It does seem like the cook was trying to do a soft-boiled egg though. And the tap water tasted fine. Not sure why Gus's chicken had the smell of sewage water. read more

This could be 5 star review- only issue was their water tastes bad. I think they just need to clean the ice machine or the fountain spouts. The ramen in fantastic. read more
