    Came by for an early lunch on Saturday and there was only 1 other couple. The decor and layout of the restaurant is really fun, felt like we were in our own private pod. We ordered the classic omurice which came with a drink (we chose thai tea), mega ramen, and rice burger to try. The omurice was good and liked that the fried rice had chicken in it. The rice itself was OK, maybe I prefer Chinese style fried rice lol. Loved how fluffy and tasty the egg was. The ramen was tasty but felt like the broth could be slightly richer. Rice burger was not bad but didn't like the sauce that went with it. Service was good and kind. Liked that they could make my thai tea less sweet. Overall was good and would return to try other items!

    The food is pretty good. Not the best in the world. It's consistent. The dumplings I could make from the freezer at home, but I love those. The omelet is fun to watch and tasted good too with the gravy sauce. The cold jelly sake shot was fun. The service is fast and everyone is kind. The hexagon sitting area is really unique and fun

    Disassembled ramen to go

    Bottom line: I wouldn't recommend this restaurant only because there are better ramen spots nearby. It's a bit gimmicky and the quality of its ramen is not worth the price I came to this restaurant today to place a to-go order around noon. The original plan was for me and my companion to go to Okiboru, but on the way, he noticed an Indian restaurant that he really wanted go to instead so I agreed to get take out from Kyuramen which was in the same strip mall for convenience since I was craving ramen. Atmosphere: The lighting gives a nice natural vibe. Medium volume indie-pop music overhead. The sound of the A/C is noticeable from the lobby area, but I would imagine that you could still have a decent conversation with your companion with a normal voice. They have the "honeycomb" booths that are stacked on two levels which is fun for first-timers. Food: I got the #6 Kyushu Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen with the 2 pepper spice level ($16.99). The broth was a good level of spice and had decent flavor, but not to the level of richness I was expecting. The pork Chasu had decent flavor as well but was not very tender. The noodles were a bit doughy, wasn't the biggest fan of them. Service: Not much to say here as I ordered to-go. The staff were very kind and helpful. They greeted me as soon as I walked through the door and answered all of my questions. My food was ready to take home less than 10 minutes after placing my order. Overall: This is a tough review. Normally under the circumstances, I would give this a 2.5(which would round up to three) stars based on the quality of food vs the price I'm paying for. Not to mention I imagine if I were dining in, the service would have been great (considering I came during a slow time). I also greatly appreciate that they didn't up charge me for taking the order to-go which is a practice many restaurants are taking to make up for what would be a tip, which I don't agree with at all. The only reason I'm dropping down to 2 stars is because there is a much better restaurant nearby (Okiboru) that is similar in price and service, but has much higher quality ramen. Kyuramen is a nice spot if you want to try something new and fun. Otherwise, I would recommend Okiboru instead

    Food- not good. Decor- super cute. Came here for the lunch special on a Tuesday. There were only 2 other tables with customers. We were seated immediately. I got the lunch special with lemonade, gyoza, and #2 ramen. The lemonade was okay, but very cucumber forward. The gyoza came with sauce on top and no soy sauce. Unfortunately I hate mayo based sauce so I couldn't eat it but who I came with said it was good. The ramen wasn't good. The braised pork belly was fatty, not tender, and hard to chew. The flavor of the braised pork belly was not good as well as the broth. I wouldn't recommend coming here for ramen or gyoza.

The black garlic tonkatsu has a savory rich flavor- can't ever go wrong with this. The green tea pudding is matcha-y and has a great pudding texture. The boba milk tea is sweet, creamy and the boba is cooked a little too chewy imo. A M B I A N C E Cool interior, honeycomb seating. Lots of photo-ops in here. Very family and kid friendly.

    Food was ok , dumplings are real good. My Ramen was cold. My family members Ramen was not. It's soup. It should always be hot. I shouldn't not have to ask to warm it up.

    Ramen with chicken

    The decor in here is great; really enjoyed the beehive booths, and the store had some on point Halloween decorations. Service was great, and I doubly appreciate it as the waitstaff had to walk up to the honeycomb booth each time to check on us or fill drinks. The food was fine, but nothing special, and definitely not the best Ramen I've had in Atlanta, so would consider going back more for the feels than the food.

    Tonkatsu Omurice with Demi Glace and Tokyo Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen
    Michelle H.

    I like the concept of Kyuramen when it comes to the seating inside, which is in the shape of honeycombs that are stacked on top of each other and makes dining a bit more cuter. I also like their "wish tree" where you can write a wish or positive message to hang on the tree inside the restaurant. I ordered the Tonkatsu Omurice with Demi Glace. I had never had omurice before, so I was not sure of what to expect. I think that I felt a bit overwhelmed with the sauce. I also think that while the pork tonkatsu was crispy, it was a bit much for me to be paired with the omurice (that had chicken fried rice). My friend got the Tokyo Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen and she said it was alright. Overall, I think that the food was just okay to me. However, the service was good and I think it would be fun to check out this place if you want a unique dining experience!

    I enjoyed sitting in the honeycomb and seeing the robot deliver some food and drinks. The ramen was delicious especially during these cold days. Try the lemonade and Thai tea, they do have alcohol here I didn't get any this time. The food came out pretty fast and they have extra seasonings on the table if you want to add anything extra to your food.

    This is my second time here and after coming twice and getting takeout, I can really say that this is probably the best Ramen that I've had in Atlanta. There is a Ramen spot up the street that got Michelin star attention and always has a line out the door, and people seems to pass Kyuramen by and I don't get it ! Both times I came here for dine in. I got the twin bowl CP #2 and it did not disappoint. I honestly think that this is the best value on the menu, and I hope that it stays permanent! The spicy show you is so rich and has amazing bold flavor. They do not skimp on the portions, even though the bowl is split in half. That's Sapporo miso is really special. It's not light like a miso soup, I would say it's a hybrid between a Tatu and a miso broth because it's not quite as heavy as the original tongue, Katsu on their menu. The noodles in the Ramen are cooked to perfection, and the fact that they have Boba on the menu is a plus. 10 out of 10 would recommend I honestly have now Decided to prefer the spot over JINYA and I never thought that I would say that, but here we are!

    Inside. Dining room with honeycomb seating.

    I thought Kyuramen might all be looks for TikTok and Instagram, but the food and drink here were actually decent and service was outstanding. If you've been curious about their unique honeycomb seating, twin bowl ramen, and video-friendly omurice, this place is worth checking out. Kyuramen is a chain with currently over 20 locations in the US. Most are in New York. The brand opened its second metro Atlanta location in Sandy Springs OTP (outside the Perimeter) in June 2023. The first location opened in Suwanee in November 2022: https://bit.ly/3tI0jXJ Same owner (Chinese). This Kyuramen is located in the Abernathy Square shopping center (Publix) at the big intersection of Roswell and Abernathy Roads in North Fulton. This is a busy shopping center with plenty of parking. During our 6:30-8:30pm visit on a Tuesday night, the restaurant was slow to moderately busy. We wanted to sit in the honeycomb and had no problem getting a seat. This location has eight honeycomb cells. They're not for everyone because of the potentially-limited space and short, kind-of steep stairs. My friend and I had a lot of fun in our cell. Obviously, the novelty of Kyuramen's honeycomb seating is a big part of the restaurant's appeal. The dining room markets itself. The three honeycomb cells on the ground level are the bigger cells that can seat four people each, comfortably. I think up to six are able to squeeze into these bigger cells. The five honeycomb cells on the second and third levels can seat two people each, comfortably, and I think up to four can squeeze in if needed. My friend and I sat in one of the third-level cells which had a good view of the dining room below. The servers really get a workout going up and down the stairs. The restaurant also has a regular dining room with more practical "normal" seating, a ramen bar, and a private dining room. Additionally, there's a bubble tea shop attached/next door called TBaar: https://bit.ly/3SzOY6L Again, same owner. You can order from both the Kyuramen and TBaar menus at your table and put everything on the same ticket. Speaking of menus, there were six (!) one-pagers, back and front. They came in different sizes. We both thought it was a bit much and it could cause people to get confused, overwhelmed, and/or miss things. There was the seasonal special menu, the main menu, the twin bowl and burger menu, the TBaar menu, the alcoholic beverage menu, and the placard menu on the table with appetizers and combos. I know this is a chain so maybe the franchisee has to follow the format, but if I owned the place, I would consolidate the menus. Here's what we got: * Takoyaki Octopus Balls ($8.99) - six pieces * Ika Geso Kara-Age ($9.99) - fried squid tentacles * Pork Tonkatsu Omurice Combo with Demi Glace Sauce ($23.99) - includes one drink, either Amazing Lemonade or Thai Iced Tea * CP1. Black & White Couple ($18.99) - Tonkotsu-Shio and Black Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen with chashu pork, half marinated egg (each side), bamboo shoots, corn, wakame, and narutomaki * TBaar Thai Iced Tea with tapioca ($4.75 for large size plus $0.65 for boba = $5.40 total) Overall, I thought the food was good, not great. Everything was fresh. The Takoyaki and Ika Geso Karaage were par for the course in Atlanta. Both were tasty and I recommend them if you're looking for some yummy apps. The Takoyaki came with all the customary ingredients -- katsuobushi (fish flakes), takoyaki sauce, Japanese mayo, etc. The Ika Geso Karaage consisted of sizable, crispy, and scrumptious pieces of squid. The Omurice was well balanced and satisfying. It had an appetizing texture. You can order it with or without the pork cutlet. I highly recommend with. The cutlet was extra crispy and delectable. It went perfectly with the rice, egg, and sauce. As shown in videos, part of the fun of ordering Kyuramen's Omurice is how the omelet is cut open and finished at the table. After the sauce is poured, seaweed is sprinkled on top. Yum. I thought the ramen was OK by Atlanta standards. One thing that I thought was cool and that I'm kind of surprised I haven't seen anywhere else is the option to do the "twin bowl" ramen (reminds me of yin yang hot pot). For just a couple dollars more, you can try two different kinds of ramen in one bowl. I liked the Tonkotsu-Shio and Black Garlic Tonkotsu about equally. The portions were generous. Each side had two big slices of pork belly, half an egg, and more (e.g., narutomaki fish cake). The broths were satisfactory and the noodles were good (good texture). I loved all the green onion. Condiments at the table included shichimi togarashi (Japanese spice mix), sauerkraut pepper, and cayenne seasoning. Garlic would have been nice. The bubble tea from TBaar was fine. The boba quality was fresh with appetizing consistency. Not a bad bubble tea option if you're in the area. Service was excellent. We were served by a committee. All staff (4) that we interacted with were polite and attentive.

    Atmosphere was great. Food was a little pricey for the amount you get. The ramen I had left a numbing feeling in my mouth. I think it was because of the spring onion in the ramen. I liked the taste but the after sensation was weird.

    Agedashi
    Annie M.

    I have been to the Suwanee location and loved it so was glad this one is just as good. I told myself I'd try the ramen this time but got the tonkatsu omurice ($24) anyway It is lit and comes with a lemonade or Thai tea and a small pork tonkatsu which is kinda soggy on the bottom because of how it sits but it tasted great anyway. I do wish it came with tonkatsu sauce though. Between these two, I ended up with the half the omurice left for lunch the next day. Their lemonade is delicious though ... It's got cucumbers in it and maybe something else like mint? So refreshing I got the agedashi to try this time for the table and it was so good! I definitely could've eaten the whole plate and probably another one by myself. The tofu is creamy inside, crisp outside and sauce paired perfectly! My coworker tried the rice burger and wasn't crazy about the soft rice bun but liked the chicken karaage piece it came with. She also got a pork bao bun and I tried this one. It's a huge slice of tender pork & was sweetly flavored and very good. They've got honeycomb seating, private rooms and tables in the open and a robot to bring some items to the open tables. The private rooms also have a call button We'll definitely be back. We had no wait in a Wednesday for lunch & easy parking in the shared lot

The service was actually pretty good and was fast so I didn't wait a whole long time to get my food and everybody was really cool and friendly. Brussel sprouts - The brussel sprouts were okay. They came temporary style so they were fried and battered. I'm pretty sure those are ranch dressing that went along with them, or maybe the sauce for the fries was that and sauce, I'm not sure. But they were okay. But I wouldn't rush back to them necessarily. Crispy chicken - The crispy chicken was decent. It came in very large chunks of chicken, kind of like smaller chicken tenders. Nothing out of the box though. They were only so seasoned, nothing got to make your mouth explode LOL Beef chashu bowl - This bowl was good. Kind of reminds me of that. I'm getting your beef kind of flavor. It's basically a rice bowl if you traded the ramen and the broth for rice. And you have that beef and the egg and a couple of other accompaniments, but it's really good or very far too. I kind of a brown sugar teriyaki kind of blend and if you want to know the flavor profile. Spicy chicken ramen - was good. I got it spicy but it's another level above that. If you want more heat. It comes with two chicken in it, and plenty of very good news. The broth is super savory and it will make you tingle a little bit LOL. French fries - The fries are shoestring fries and they're okay. They tell me the sauce. I'm not sure what it is though. But they are decent, nothing pretty out of the box. Even though it's a chain, the ramen is totally worth it.

    We usually visit the same ramen shop every time we're in the Atlanta area but this time we wanted…read moreto explore more since we knew there were so many other options. We decided to try Slurpin' Ramen Bar first. I had read that they originally started in California so I had a good feeling about it and I'm so glad we went! Their tonkotsu broth was probably the best I've had in the US. It was rich and full of flavor without feeling overly heavy. It was so good that we didn't want to leave any behind so we actually took the leftover broth with us for the 5-hour drive home (thankfully we had a cooler bag!). I immediately had to tell my son who's currently living in LA for college so he can visit one there too. This place is definitely going on our must-visit restaurant list from now on.

First, when you walk into the restaurant, it is very cute, has a bar for solo diners and booths incase you are in a group. The location is very cozy and the employees were great! Our server was very patient and had no problem explaining, re-explaining, and confirming with the chef if he wasn't 100% on an answer. I got a tofu rice bowl, which I typically don't get and it was delicious! I asked if the salad could be put on the side rather than in the bowl and was given a full side salad that I wound up mixing into my rice lol. I also added broccoli to the bowl, which I probably wouldn't do again because it was pretty bland, but overall the bowl was good. Now the vegan dumplings... were FANTASTIC! We shared the dumplings and everyone agreed that they were easily the best thing that we had eaten the whole day. The green color threw me off at first, but the crispiness and texture of the dumpling was amazing. I would love to go back and try the ramen to see how it measures up, but again, great experience. Also, when you are paying the check, they bring you a small bucket full of dum dum lollipops, which I thought was a great touch. Me and my adult guests all left like happy children, which is exactly how eating out should make you feel.

    This is our nephew's go to spot for a celebration and we have been visiting for years. I can't…read morespeak on all of the menu, of which, is extensive. I CAN tell you the ramen and sushi is solid. I have had several types of ramen and sushi and they have never disappointed. The sushi always seems fresh and freshly made. The ramen is flavorful and filling. Service is good, I like the ring the bell model where you aren't being pestered by the server and they aren't wasting their time. I have never been to Japan but I bet the restaurant's atmosphere with areas you take your shoes off would fit right in. Always happy when our nephew picks this place for his birthday dinner.

    For the past two visits, we've had some of the worst dining experiences we've ever had…read more First, the customer service was disappointing. The short, thin hostess at the front repeatedly rolled her eyes behind our backs while seating us. I didn't notice it at the time, but our friend pointed it out towards the end of our meal, and it left a very negative impression. Our server was also inattentive. He checked on nearly every table around us multiple times but rarely came by ours. We ordered over $150 worth of food for just the two of us, yet received very little service. Despite that, we still left a 20% tip. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing as well. A lot of the food arrived cold. The quality and taste were nowhere near as good as what we remembered from previous visits. After giving this restaurant multiple chances, we can confidently say we will not be returning.

    Decided we wanted to switch up and try a new ramen spot randomly and I am extremely thrilled with…read morethis choice. The service was impeccable and I never had to wait for a refill or for the next part of my meal. We tried quite a bit, but have even more to try. Let's just say that this was a delicious set of broths, chewy noodles, and rich flavor. Simple and to the point with clear flavor. We also tried a few of the cocktails and I must say they each were delicious in a different way. Bonus points because they show the pictures of the cocktail and main Liqour used which was a nice touch. Two of the drinks were their Spring specials but the others were available all year per my understanding. Okiboru, thanks for having me. Can't wait to return!

    This was my third visit to Okiboru Tsukemen, and I've generally enjoyed it in the past. The first…read moretwo visits at the Sandy Springs location were really good and the restaurant is decorated very nicely. I hadn't been back in almost two years and unfortunately, this visit just didn't hit the same for me. I ordered the same spicy Tonkotsu ramen I had before, but it tasted completely different this time. I remember the noodles being very fresh and the broth having a much richer flavor. This visit honestly reminded me a little of Jinya's ramen, which personally isn't my favorite style. The broth almost tasted creamy, like milk had been added. Maybe not, but it just didn't taste as fresh to me with a deep flavor as before. Someone also recommended the Okiboru buns, and I wasn't too impressed with those either. I originally wanted the braised ribs, but TikTok hype convinced me otherwise, so that part is on me. Looking back, I think the ribs or even the panko shrimp probably would've been the better choice. The shrimp is my normal app so I take fault for the switch up. Overall, I'd still say give it a try for yourself because everyone's taste is different. There are a lot of ramen spots around Atlanta now, though, and this visit just didn't leave me as impressed as my previous ones did. Just being honest.
