I was in the area and popped on down to this nice anime-themed restaurant. I got the miso-ramen lunch special with a passion fruit tea. Service was pretty fast. I got my food & drink within 10-15 minutes which is great for my hour lunch break. The miso ramen was delicious and filling. I almost couldn't eat all of it! The passion fruit tea was great as well! I would recommend this meal combo for anyone coming to the shop for the first time. read more

The black garlic ramen is exceptional, I've tried a few things here and that's been the best so far, but the other ramen dishes and dumplings have also been good. Today I just got veg fried rice and juicy pork bun (dumpling), both were really good. I wish that the dumplings came in a larger serving size for the price, but they were really delicious. The atmosphere is casual and the decor is very cool, the walls are covered in anime characters. There is plenty of seating are several booths, smaller tables that can be pushed together for a large group, and also a round table with a lazy Susan that would be good for a group. read more

Loved coming here when I could! Great spot especially when the weather gets a little bit colder and I crave something warm. Really great portions for a decent price, and the food would come out pretty quick. Servers are really nice and always accommodating when needed. Would recommend trying this spot out whenever you can as they have really great options. Unfortunately I only took a picture of the spicy ramen for now, but their other ramen options (miso, tonkotsu, and chicken katsu) and boba teas are delicious. read more

Kumamon - Spicy Miso Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Went in on their soft opening. Service is still a bit slow but that's normal. Ordered the miso and tonkasu ramen. Miso was good. Not to salty. Meat was good. Noodles done right. Same with the tonkasu broth. Not too salty. Well made. Glad they are part of the hood! I love the Naruto and One Piece decorations and figurines. They get a recommendation. read more

Me and partner needed some lunch and walked Aron's the neighborhood as we were indecisive. Decided to give Ku Ramen a try and loved it! We didn't expect the food to remind of us out neigborhood Chinese spot back in NYC and definitely said we would come back. I had the lychee ice tea and I don't think I would have that again left a weird after taste for me. We ate at the location and service was good but some mistake was made with serving but there was only one server. The place gets busy and have the option to sit down or take out here,. Like I said good spot and would come back! read more

Who knew this was so close to home. It was a good experience. Chk teriyaki like I read in other reviews sauce is good. I like Panda Express better. Portions are good but still pricy. I would recommend still. Scallion pancakes was too oily I guess that's how they are.... I get kawan paratha from grocery store and they match a bit to it... other than oily They were ok not my fav. Miso Ramen had good flavors spicy side gave a kick. Presentation was good. I recommend to try and see it yourself. Lastly brown sugar milk tea was a disappointment it was watery and didn't like it. Overall was a good experience!!!! read more

Kumamon - the menus on the wall - Ramen Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Service leaves a lot to be desired. I wasn't even greeted, or asked for my order. He just looked at me. I wasn't thanked even for bringing my bowl back to the registered when I was done. There were no condiments in the table. I had to get up to grab chili oil from a another table. My milk tea appeared to have been sitting in the ice when it was bright to me. The damn noodles where so wack. There was no bite and just a really poor quality noodle. It didn't compliment the broth at all. The broth was edible! But it lacked the tonkotsu flavor I craved. I didn't bother with the Chasu. It appeared to have been grilled. The eggs were good! Soft in the center. The only thing I enjoyed really. All in all, weak service style and below average ramen. read more

Don't let looks fool you!! We stopped by at 9p on a Thursday night, and though there's not too much to say on ambiance (seems most like a takeout place for now), if you like One Piece or Naruto, it's definitely decked out. Note that though this markets as a ramen place, it's Chinese-run, and they do offer some other dishes. My wife and I ordered from a Kiosk (available in English or Chinese) to put our order through and pay. Note that their online menu differs a little from the kiosk - seems there's some extra items available with in-store ordering (but I'll explain in a bit) We ordered the Black Garlic Ramen ($14.50), a Szechuan-style beef dish (think it was around $15?), and some scallion pancakes Black Garlic Ramen - I know $14.50 might be steep, but it's GOOD. Ramen comes filled with nicely chewy ramen noodles, 2 (yes, 2) well marinated soft-boiled eggs, bamboo shoots, mushroom, fish cake, scallion, pickled ginger, and 3 (!!!) pieces of charsiu. The charsiu was on point, and this is coming from someone who's eaten A TON of ramen in NYC. The flavor and texture were different in that the pork was fall-apart (not completely though, so you can pick it up) and less tough than what I've been having lately. The broth also had really good garlic flavor. Scallion Pancakes ($4.50) - For the price, it's very good! 8 pieces of scallion pancake (looks like the pieces were about 3" long, for reference) that were very crunchy and flavored well. Szechuan Beef - This was also a favorite. The beef came out in a metal bowl with those heating cans underneath, and is served with well-cooked white rice. The flavor had numbing spice but was not overwhelming (I have normal spice tolerance), and comes served with onions, peppers, and zucchini. We brought some home and used the oil to stir fry more food, so it's a good sized portion! Will be back for some late night cravings! read more

Anime and Asian Food might be a dream come true in Jersey City. The One Piece Art is what attracted me. Top 2 best Anime ever. Not a fan of Asian flavors but I wont be bias ? & let my wife review with me. When you walk in you have enough seats to sit down and the server come take care of you. For appetizer we had the steam gyoza. I didn't like it but my wife enjoyed it with the sauce. My wife had the Miso Chicken ramen. She gave it an 8.7/10. The perfect spiciness in the broth, egg was super delicious and noodles was perfectly cooked. She didn't rlly like the chicken. I had the chicken teriyaki with rice. I didnt like the chicken teriyaki at all but enjoyed the sauce of it with my rice yum. Wife thinks chicken teriyaki is tender and juicy. She also loved the sauce. I had a peach ice tea which was delicious read more

I've been a frequent customer at Kumamon Ramen because I genuinely enjoyed their food, but after my most recent experience, I will never return. During my visit, I placed my usual order through the kiosk, including a soda. When I went to grab the soda from the fridge -- something that was clearly part of my order -- I showed it to the staff member to be transparent. As I was leaving, I was chased down and accused of stealing the soda. Instead of simply checking my receipt first (which clearly listed the soda), the staff immediately assumed I hadn't paid and treated me like a criminal in front of other customers. After forcing me back to the counter, they finally checked the receipt and realized their mistake. Even then, there was no apology, no acknowledgment of how humiliating and disrespectful their behavior was -- just a cold "okay." It's bad enough that the customer service here has always been cold and unfriendly, but this experience crossed a serious line. I left feeling deeply disrespected and extremely uncomfortable. As a Black man, it's hard not to wonder if unconscious bias played a role in how quickly I was targeted without any real cause. Regardless of their intent, treating customers with suspicion rather than basic respect is unacceptable. Kumamon Ramen has lost a loyal customer for good. read more

Paid 9.50 for an appetizer of fries before deciding if I wanted to get ramen. Absolutely worst appetizer. 1. There was no pork on them, 2. It took 15 minutes to get them 3. They were terrible! They tasted like frozen fries with some sweet and sour sauce that I could e made better at home! read more

I've been to several anime themed spots in Miami and Edison. So I was happy to see one in my backyard of Jersey City. Been to it twice and tried the Miso Ramen soup, spring roll and chicken skewer. And on my next trip I tried the Teriyaki chicken rice dish and beef skewer. Left both times satisfied. I'll try the bubble tea next time. Nice good spot in the Square. Love the One Piece anime theme. read more

Stopped in for dinner on a Sunday night and really enjoyed the food! Got the spicy miso ramen and the bok choy. The ramen was actually fairly spicy (my common gripe is that things that are listed as "spicy" are not spicy enough!). The ingredients were fresh, the noodles were cooked well and there was a lot of meat in the bowl. The egg was cooked perfectly. The bok choy was also freshly prepared and very good. I don't understand why other reviews are so low! The people working there were very nice too. I'll definitely be back. read more

The quality is horribly cheap and the taste is terrible. I think I'm getting sick after food. Won't come back ever again

Honestly really great quality ramen, they nail the flavors for each bowl. Give a great amount of meat portion for the bowls and decently priced. I go here for quality ramen over other overly hyped ramen spots in Jersey City read more

They had good service and great food. I would recommend getting the spicy miso ramen.

The black garlic ramen. miso ramen and bubble tea are good for the price and location. However the chicken and sausage skewer were not very good (Luke-cold to warm) and rather small in portion for the price. During my second visit we were served warm tea (we had ordered a pot of hot tea for the table, tea leaves and all) and found an egg shell on our egg. However the server was very understanding and ended up giving us a discount for the inconveniences. Would recommend if you have a craving for ramen or bubble tea. read more

Use to go to this place before it became Ku Ramen (Chinese Food Joint) and got major food poisoning and didn't go back. Place is filled with anime references and looked cool enough so I gave it a shot and paid $9 for "Pork Buns" which I had to wait 30 minutes for and they were just $9 tiny air filled dumplings...? Reminds me of when I used to go here before and they would tell me they were always out of the smaller portions so we would have to spend more. Same owners, same place, mostly same food just more expensive with a different wallpaper, definitely not coming back. read more

The Chinese spicy beef noodle soup is very good! Would even be better if the soup is thicker

They were promoted as Chinese but it's really Japanese food or has a Japanese twist doesn't taste well to me

Was sad to see that my favorite Chinese spot had closed down, but decided to give this place a shot. Honestly, just as good with a focus on Ramen. My friend got the Spicy Miso and I got the Tonkotsu Ramen. Both were good, could probably be a little spicier. We also started with the crispy rice cakes which I LOVED. Tbh, 10/10. I even thought the price point was fair for a ramen place as well. Also our server was super nice and attentive. It was a pretty busy Friday afternoon, but he handled it all by himself. He was great! read more
