Service is always quick and friendly. I order from here every now and then and I always get the same thing. The jungle with a soft boiled egg. Though I will be back again in the future, I'm sure. (because sometimes you just want some ramen while watching tv) I do have to say the flavor of my ramen is always different. Which that reason alone makes me not want it as much as I used to.. bummer. Like every single time it doesn't taste as good as the very first time I ate here! Also, last night our eggs were EXTREMELY salty. I just wish they would double check things like this. read more

The food is really good. They make it really convenient to split checks and make changes on food orders. Staff is always very friendly and helpful. Great place to have lunch if your in the area. read more

This 2 star rating is not for the food. The broth was great with the Sapporo Ramen and it was nice to be able to choose the thickness. The chashu was delicious, the noodles were great and I alway to get extra ajitama and nori. The rating is the the delivery. We placed the delivery on Eat24 and got an estimated 1.5hrs for delivery. When called about our order an hour later, our willingness to wait that long for ramen was quickly drained by hearing it would take another hour. Even when I went in to pick it up, another customer was there because he hadn't received his order and left after being told they never received it. I don't know the details of that situation, but it seems like they either have more orders than they are able to support or have bad service. If you want good ramen, you can get it from Michi, just make sure that you pick it up yourself. read more

This is my favorite quick fix when I want something nourishing and comforting without a lot of fuss... Order in or delivery, they are quick and delicious. Great price- Great customer service read more

My boyfriend and I tried out Michi Ramen last night. Frankly it was terrrible. The ramen quality was that of 69 cent packet ramens at walmart. They were thick, slimy and mostly clumped up. Its as if a hipster college student made it in their dorm microwave. The beef was weird tasting and the broth was cheap. It was probably worth paying a total of $5 instead we spent $12 plus a tip. If you want Ramen I would suggest going to an actual Asian restaurant. Michi Ramen is just an over priced fast food ploy. read more

I really enjoy this ramen for a quick take-out option. I've had it countless times and it always hits the spot. However, I've had issues with at least 3 out of the last 5 orders. Twice they've given me the wrong broth (only two options for vegetarians), as well as forgotten the soft boiled egg (an extra $1, mind you) and recently the green onions sliced on top were in chunks so large it totally overwhelmed the entire dish. There just seems to be a quality control issue. I never complain since I usually don't notice until I'm home. I'll definitely continue coming here for the convenience, but I'll be checking my orders before I leave the building. The waiting space is small and usually pretty warm, but I've never had to wait more than 10 minutes or so, even when they're busy. Ramen Tatsu-Ya is the tastier of the two in this 'hood but they don't offer take-out. read more

I had some amazinggggg ramen delivered last night, and it was seriously so good. I added the chili sauce to mine with regular broth. My only complaints are it didn't come with egg, and I didn't see the option to add one? But that could have easily been my oversight. However, I would also like it a bit spicier. But I look forward to trying other things on the menu. It was delivered to my apartment in only about 30 mins, so that was nice! read more

I'll start by saying this place used to be really great, the quality used to be amazing and my wife and I would come here once a week. As time went on the quality started to go downhill, and the service just stinks now. We placed an order today, was told it would be ready in 20 minutes and waited almost 50 minutes for our order to come out. Save your money, go up the street to Ramen Tatsuya, where the service is great, the food is great and it comes out in a timely manner. read more

I waited over two hours for a single bowl of Raman. After the entire HOUR, I received a call saying that unfortunately the delivery time wasn't on the order in which I responded with , I received an email with time confirmation and according to the email, I should already receive my food. I tried to cancel the order, but was told that I will need to contact Yelp directly for a refund. Since this seem to be a lot of work and I was told that my food will arrive within 30-40 minutes if not sooner " since it was just one bowl" I agreed to wait. Another hour pass, I called again and was told that the food is on the way. Once I received the food, the food was practically cold. Pork belly was chewy and awful. Come on Michi Raman, if you make your customer wait for over two hours for food at least make it a good one!!!! read more

I wish it was tastier. I got the meat lover's Tonkotsu with ground pork and chunks. Meat was just overwhelming. Tatsuta age- boneless fried chicken was fried in old oil. Broth was thick "stout" and good, but the overall composition was not a five-star. I tried Tatsu-ya earlier - they executed theirs better. read more

It's convenient due to its location and cost. But it's not mind blowing. I recommend trying their make your own bowl option so you can experiment and find a bowl that meets your standards. Love the pickled ginger and the steamed fishcakes. Amazon prime delivery is a good plus as well. read more

We used Bite Squad to order from Michi Ramen tonight. The folks at Bite Squad had to wait over an hour beyond estimated delivery time because the food wasn't ready. And this is from a "delivery only" restaurant. Bite Squad called with apologies, and said there was no explanation provided for such a long delay. We finally got the order delivered and the chasu and the egg add-ons we paid for weren't included. Sorry isn't a word Michi Ramen offered up for an absurd delay or the messed up order, but I'll offer up a "sorry" to Michi Ramen, you just lost loyal customer. EDIT: The manager at Michi Ramen reached out to me post review with an intention to better understand and fix the problems we experienced. I was impressed with the dialogue. Note the original score of 1 star was based solely on horrible service. The food is very good (though the sliced chasu isn't nearly as good as the burnt ends pork ramen). read more

Quick, casual, and a solid bowl of Ramen. Although there is certainly better ramen to be had in Austin, I can't help but stop by when I have a craving for a hot, steaming bowl of noodles and broth. I will remark that it is both more expensive and lower quality than Ramen Tatsuya (but come on... it's hard to beat Tatsuya). read more

It's alright in a pinch, but honestly it's over hyped and over priced. Go somewhere else in Austin for better ramen, Tatsuya is definitely higher quality. read more

Beware! Portion sizes are much smaller than at dine in. Otherwise it's good, miso broth is great.

Solid takeout spot! They package the broth on the side, so nothing gets soggy or gooey. The flavors aren't incredibly complex, but you can build your own bowl to mix and match broths and veggies/meats. Michi Ramen won't change your life, but you'll walk away feeling full and warm inside. read more

This may be the slowest restaurant I've ever been to. Food is great but I don't know why these places hire dumb high school students if they want their business to be run properly. read more

Yeah, sadly, not good. We decided we wanted ramen on this rainy day, and knew it was right down the street ( we frequently have rocking tomato) and decided we would go here instead of waiting in what we knew would be a long line at Tatsuya. We had never been in before, so we had no idea this was delivery and take out only, the not so stoked dude behind the register probably thought we were idiots when we ordered and asked "what beer do you have?" Or "can we get a glass of water?" (You would think maybe that would throw a hint out that we were looking for something sit down) We ordered and paid for our food, then walked around the corner " where are your tables?" He was like "take out or delivery only" ok, so we were slightly pissed about this, but we literally live down the road. As for the food, incredibly overpriced for ramen that tastes like .10 cent packaged ramen you can buy at HEB. The broth was not warm, and the pork was gross. Bummer. read more

Bomb ramen! Thomas is so sweet and helpful!!! Also cute girl with curly hair is nice! I'm a loyal customer this place is amazing for fast ramen! To go orders only read more

Take-out only. I've only been here twice but I have seen that hurt their business as people who don't know any better pop in, see that it's take-out only, then leave (probably to go to that "other" famous ramen joint down the street). The space is very small but I hope to see them either expand or move to a larger space soon so that people south can experience all of what Michi Ramen north has to offer. With that being said, I still give a 5-star because of all the times I've been to both Michi locations & have never once had a bad experience! Everything I've had has been amazing & their staff has always been friendly. If you don't like eating at home, you can take your ramen to a nearby bar, pub, or other establishment & eat there, but as new establishments pop up in south Austin it's harder to find an establishment that allows outside food. But you do get to have ramen that's neatly packed for you to enjoy the Michi Ramen experience from the comfort of home! It's kind of neat being able to assemble the ramen on your own & the feeling that you had a part in making your ramen experience enjoyable. So whether Michi south expands or stays the same, I still love them & is a great alternative at the end of the day when you don't feel like cooking yet don't want to go out for the perfect meal. read more

I love, love, love ramen. The food here is ok, but it's better and healthier than fast food, right? It's what I want when I look a mess after having cleaned my house all day but don't really want to dine in anywhere. I have two issues with this place. And when you combine the two, it makes me not want to go back. First, for mediocre ramen, it's expensive. By the time I load up my veggie bowl, it's $18. The second issue is that it's just not very efficient. When I order online, it gives me a pick up time. I get there on time, and I still have to wait at least 20 minutes more. The person at the front counter disappears for long periods of time. When I tell her my name on my order, she disappears AGAIN. This happens EVERY TIME. And the ramen is always lukewarm. So if I have to wait an hour for luke warm, mediocre ramen that is also overpriced, I'll throw on some clean clothes, throw my hair in a messy bun, and grab a table at a proper ramen restaurant. Sorry, Michi Ramen folks, but figure out a system. read more

We tried the Michi Ramen on S. Lamar over the weekend. We ended up getting our ramen to go because that location doesn't have a dine-in option. We got one Michi and one Jungle ramen. We opted to get an egg added to each bowl. I look forward to the egg more anything else when we go out for ramen. We liked them both, but the Jungle was our favorite overall. It was spicy, had a lot of veggies in it, and had a strong lemongrass flavor. The pork in the Michi was perfectly tender and flavorful. I would go there again, but maybe we'll try the dine-in location next time. read more

Beware: the to-go portion is about half the size of the normal portion for the same price. It's still good but I'd drive up north to get the full size portion or order two bowls per person. read more

It was kind of a miracle that we stumbled upon this location, as I love Michi but tend to hang out in South Austin so the trek up north is rare. Now there is a take out (and soon-to-be delivery) location on South Lamar! The quality is the same as the original and they're open until midnight, and when we came in around 7 it only took about five minutes in and out! Everything was clearly labeled in the bag, and they separate the broth and noodles/goodies so your noodles don't get all soggy on your ride home! Couldn't be happier with this new location, we'll be back often :) read more

I'm new to Ramen, and pretty much have the palate of a five-year-old. That being said, I make a pretty simple choice every time I order from here: a build you own ramen "broth and noodles". I add: carrots, bean sprouts, garlic, corn, and broccoli. It always tastes amazing, and is a very filling portion. read more

For takeout ramen, Michi Ramen hits the spot. I've never been to the north location or had them deliver, but I had no problems and a very short wait when I went on a Thursday night to pick up some grub. I ordered the Michi ramen with regular broth, one ajitama and pistachio mochi ice cream. The ramen and broth were good and filling and they don't skimp on the chashu slices. The ajitama was so-so, definitely not as flavorful as Ramen Tatsu-Ya, and probably not worth the extra dollar. I did enjoy the mochi ice cream and they offer a ton of flavors. I like this place, it's definitely better than the ramen at Whole Foods, but it doesn't quite reach the deliciousness of the competition down the street. read more

1st point of order: This shit is DOPE. Make sure you get the garlic chili oil on whatever you order - I fell in love with this (it is rapture) in New York. I tried several times to make it at home... But I was like a strung out druggie trying to clumsily make my own stash. It did not end well. Thank you for saving me from further attempts. 2nd point of order: If you are vegetarian, this place is especially bomb. There are TWO types of veggie broth offered at all times (hear that, Ramen Tatsuya?). Both are great. The Miso a tad more umami. 3rd point of order: Their summer cold ramens are also delicious, but more like noodle salad. read more

Wasn't a big fan. I didn't read the reviews first so had no idea it was take out only but that's cool. I tried the Sapporo with regular broth. They were out of the soft boiled eggs which was a bummer so I got the poached egg instead - too gooey in my opinion. When I tried the ramen I noticed all the noodles were stuck together so it seems like it was sitting around for a while. Also, the pork isn't the normal sliced chashu pork, it's like chunks of pork which was odd. This isn't your traditional ramen but okay if you're in a hurry for some warm stuff. read more

What happened here? The ambience has changed. It used to be chill and relaxing. Now it's 80's pop? My ramen I ordered stout, was not. It seemed like leftovers. I took my sister here with great excitement for my favorite ramen and I was very disappointed. I'll have to go back to Kome and try them again. Did you get new owners? I'm so confused..,.....,,, smh read more

Delicious Ramen one of my favorite spots for this delicious bowl. There are some great ramen spots in Austin and this one definitely ranks towards the top. Only bummer is that we're like a block away from their delivery border. Boo! Thankfully Favor has helped with this problem. Nothing cures a hangover like ramen. And even better when you don't have to leave your house for the good stuff. read more

Recently went here, and I got the Sapporo ramen with Stout broth. Far superior to Ramen Tatsuya, IMO. I've been to Japan, had ramen there, and this is more authentic. The broth is better and the noodles are far better than Ramen Tatsuya. read more

Delicious Ramen! Good service. We picked up a to go order of two Jungle Ramens the other night and the Ramen and broth were fresh, hot and flavorful. The only bummer is that they don't have the full menu at the South location. My husband and I wanted to try their Gyoza and also the Curry Rice. I am excited to order the Veggie Ramen next time. Oh and the garlic chili oil is every bit as delicious as everyone on the other Yelp reviews mentions! Definitely add some to your order. We added two but really only needed one to share. read more

I love Michi Ramen! Simple ingredients executed well! Less pretentious-in my opinion-than Tatsu-ya but Michi doesn't have a dining room at their south location so the food is the star. They are open till midnight for take out and delivery and has become my go to late night spot for take out. read more

I was obsessed with another ramen shop's cold summer noodles until I tried Michi's Yuzu bowl. Delicious cold noodles that you can eat in the comfort of your own home?! YES, PLEASE. read more

By far, my favorite ramen in town! There is something so easy about this place that makes it seamless every time I pick up. I would give a 5 star review, but there have been a few instances where I'm waiting an unusually long time at the front to be greeted when the business isn't busy. Other than that, they use the best ingredients, have friendly staff and my food is ready pretty quickly. I'm a simple man: sapporo ramen (no butter, not needed) and seaweed salad! Well priced for quality. read more

Michi Ramen is our go-to for ramen on a regular basis. The ramen is great and they spicy chili oil is the BEST. It works out great for me because I can go in and order, browse the nearby comic book store, and then take home my ramen and have a hot dinner. read more

I started going here when they first opened. The quality of the food is nowhere near what it was 2 years ago. The pork belly was gross. I couldn't even eat it. I love pork belly; pork anything really. It made me super sick to my stomach, and I have an iron stomach. I am never going there again. Now I know why it was strangely empty, when it used to be insanely busy. So sad. read more

I'm in love! I was feeling sick today and ended up ordering delivery. I'm so impressed! The food was delicous and it arrived fast. I got the regular ramen with veggies, chili oil and a soft boiled egg. It was divine and so filling. The price is great for this meal. I'll for sure be ordering from them again. They also have Maine Root sodas. read more

Tried to call in and ask for a basic bowl. Rude over the phone and couldn't tell me about their menu. Probably will not be coming back. Also took a while to get food... read more

The food quality is just as good as you would expect from the original location. I've gotten it both by take out and by delivery now and every time it was quick and easy to get my meal. The delivery took less than 7 minutes! If you're a fan of the original Michi but live down south, you'll definitely enjoy the convenience. read more
