I stepped in and was surprised at the energetic vibe and overall great atmosphere. Unique options well beyond Ramen although the spicy garlic ramen with Tofu was great. Unique appetizers the grilled octopus was tender and had flavors that left me wanting more. I contemplated licking the plate. They have over dozen house cocktails plus assortment of wines and beers. Great place but make a reservation if the weekend read more

I am so glad to have stumbled upon this ramen restaurant located in Tacoma. There is street parking, but we ended up parking next door in the bank's parking lot since they were closed by the time we showed up. It was quite busy inside for a Wednesday evening. They do take reservations, which I didn't know at the time, but they were able to seat us within minutes of showing up. We ordered the Loaded Kimchi Fries (lightly breaded golden French fries topped with kimchi and seasoned pork, scallions, then slathered in kimchi kewpie and house Tokyo/buffalo sauce) to share between the two of us. I ordered the Habanero Tantan Ramen (spicy pork broth ramen served over a thick wavy noodle topped with seasoned pork, scallion, chili oil, and spinach gomae). My sister ordered the Chicken Shio Ramen (Shio seasoned chicken broth ramen served over thick wavy noodles topped with chicken chashu, menma, scallion, and sesame). We really LOVED the Loaded Kimchi Fries. We kept munching and eating them while we were waiting for our ramen. We would tell ourselves we would stop and wait for the entrees to come, but we kept just slowly picking at it. Definitely recommend getting them! It is a little spicy. read more

Came here a couple weeks ago and turned out it was their last day and no one knew-not even the staff. This place had a line out the door and we had incredibly creative ramen you can't find anywhere else. I had birria ramen. It was amazing. I had planned to come back and bring a big work group but that is not going to happen sadly. I will not be supporting the new owners who allegedly fired all the staff without warning.I hope the previous folks at Moshi will pop up elsewhere and I wish them all the best. read more

Moshi Ramen Bar - Birria ramen, Mac salad, pickled shiitake mushrooms, white rabbit drink. - Ramen Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Probably my favorite ramen spot in Tacoma! Street parking is sometimes hard to come by but it's ok since you'll need the extra steps to walk off the deliciousness. Most recently I came for their happy hour, which includes a bunch of appetizers and even a variety of fancy cocktails (and also regular well drinks)! I am always so impressed with quality of their food. - Szechuan chili dumplings are actually quite spicy like 4/5 spicy! - Gochujang brussels sprouts were more like ordinary brussels with a hint of gochujang flavor. - I was pleasantly surprised by the sesame shrimp toast - so delicious and crispy and perfect portion of shrimp-toast ratio. - Mezcal manhattan is exquisite and tbh belongs in a cozy speakeasy. I will drink as many of these as safely possible (which is probably only 2). Service is friendly, food comes out quick, and our waters were mostly full (they were a little slow on that). LGBTQi+ friendly, BLM friendly! I will be back. read more

Moshi Moshi is a real find! This gem is in the Stadium District of Tacoma on Tacoma Avenue just south of Division/6th Avenue Lane, Sam, Beck and Alice were on staff today. This is definitely the place for healthy and vegetarian option meals. Dad had the Fried Rice and Leise had the Yakisoba - absolutely delicious!! read more

This is the kind of place that is why I moved to the city, the setting was hip and urban, it felt very alive. The seaweed salad was wonderful, the little cheese and salmon balls were fantastic dipped in chili sauce. The Ramen tho, wow! My tonkatsu was to die for, the egg was perfect, and the pork literally melted in your mouth. Our waitress was extremely kind and helpful, having been our first time walked us through the menu, I love when wait staff is willing to answer all my dumb questions. This will be a place I come back to frequently. read more

Service was great and waitress was attentive. Really loved all the appetizers we ordered, shishito pepper, green beans, spam musubi. I used the photos in yelp to pick my ramen...chicken shio ramen... I need to read the menu next time. I guess some of the items were add ons. Great for a first date. Lots of things to talk about. Decor is really cool. read more

Cute Japanese restaurant. The seating in my opinion seems too close for comfort. We were seated near the entrance and I felt crowded in. We sat at a table where I didn't feel I could sit across from my family because if I did, I'd feel like I was in the way of the walk way. Anyways, about the food I really liked the Pork Belly Bao and my fried tofu. My family also liked their food. We also ordered desserts. We ordered some Mochi (we ordered four different flavors) and chocolate moose. They tasted good. Nothing to really rave about. The bar though was awesome, lots of drink choices. The service was nice, our server was super friendly which made our experience even better. When the food and service is good the experience is a lot better. Kudos to our server. read more

Another place knocked off the date night list! My boyfriend has been here in the past and really liked the chicken katsu curry, but apparently they've done away with it. :( He got another curry which smelled delicious and he seemed to enjoy! I got the Kotteri Tonkotsu because I can't go to a ramen spot and NOT get ramen. The noodles were great, and the pork was delicious too. The broth was okay. It was good, but I've definitely had better at quite a few other spots. I also wish it had come a little hotter! We got the spam musubi as well for our appetizer and it wasn't bad. Another "I've had better" situation. I think the best part of Moshi Moshi is the atmosphere and service! The staff is super friendly and very on top of it. We came in on a Friday evening and were in and out in about an hour. Moshi Moshi is decorated really cute and has the perfect dim lighting for date night. Full bar, too! Note that it is a little tough to find... It's attached to the Indo Street Eatery (owned by the same person, I'm assuming, as some of the staff was wearing their shirts). Look for that sign and Moshi Moshi is the unmarked door next to it! read more

Moshi Ramen Bar - Kotteri Tonkotsu - Ramen Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Love this spot. It has a hipster vibe with an impossibly excellent waitstaff that makes the place truly sing. We came on a Wednesday, and it was buzzing with people, so much so that we had to sit at the bar, which was no slight. There was still plenty of room, and the ambiance was still palpable. We opted for cocktails and small plates. I got the Orochimaru, a refreshing and creative take on a mezcal cocktail. We got the vegetable dumplings, Takoyaki, and edamame. All were good and made for a filling meal. The Takoyaki was the star of the show. I recommend this place. There's something for everyone, read more

Came for a first date! It was a fun place. Appealing to be in! Fun and fast service that checked in regularly to make sure we were happy. Food was way better than the ramen I have at home. It had a delicious rich broth and obviously homemade noodles that were wonderful. It was a wonderful experience and I look forward to coming back. read more

The best ramen place in Tacoma that I've found so far! A little pricey for ramen especially the add ons but definitely worth it. I used to have to go to Federal Way for ramen so this place hits the spot! I really like the tonkotsu and tan tan ramen and adding the chili bomb really heats up the broth. It's a small restaurant and I like the manga and anime details all over the tables. read more

What I love about Moshi Moshi is how the menu is somehow both small, but has great variety. This became the fams weeknight spot because there is something for everyone regardless of what you are craving. We were first drawn in by the ramen. They are all good, but I am a sucker for miso ramen and theirs does not disappoint. Even the coconut green curry ramen, which is more typical curry than ramen is great. I am used to spots that have good ramen not doing much else, but we branched out to try some other things off the menu. Dan dan noodles and brussel sprouts?? At a ramen place? Yes please and they were both good. Maybe you just need some fried chicken. They've got that too. Just order a little of everything along with some ramen and you will be happy you did! read more

The in-laws have been raving about this place, so we came here when it was convenient for them. The tables had black and white manga drawings on it, which was pretty neat. We ordered so much food! We got the shiyo ramen, tan tan ramen, spicy miso ramen, galbi, kimchi fries, spam musubi, spicy beef dumplings, takaouoko?, an IPA, and a few cocktails. We shared all the appetizers and my favorite were the dumplings. It had a nice flavor and good kick to it. I personally ordered the galbi and it came with kimchi, seaweed salad, some rice with furikake. The portion for this dish was pretty big, but unfortunately, the flavors weren't there and I thought that the meat was too fatty for me. I think that the drinks were great though. We had a few rounds and tried the Hero From the West, the Lavender-lime chuhai, and habanero margarita. Our server recommended that I get the Parseltongue, which had mezcal, coconut cream, lime, agave, cilantro and cucumber. It was very interesting and refreshing! I recommend coming here for their cocktails because the food was just alright to me. read more

Moshi Ramen bar was such a vibe! The food was delicious, and the servers were sweet and well educated on the menu. The dumplings were SO GOOD.

This is the perfect place to eat at when it's cold outside. It's a ramen restaurant but there's so many different options! I highly recommend the karaage and the chili garlic green beans for appetizers. They were so good that we forgot we ordered entrees as well. For our entrees, I ordered the pork belly yakisoba and I would definitely order it again. They go heavy on the baby mayo but it's exactly what I wanted. If you love baby mayo then the yakisoba and the karaage would be perfect for you. My boyfriend ordered the kotteri tonkatsu and his bowl was clean when we left. Both were big portions and delicious. I highly recommend! read more

We are vegetarian and my husband and I are obsessed with their garlic miso Vegan Ramen and I still dream about those Sichuan Boiled Dumplings. We've already been twice and that says a lot from someone like me who is obsessed with trying new places all the time This one is definitely a top fav that I will keep coming back to . The ambience is pretty casual and helps to have reservations on weekends, love their Thursday discounts and service has been great both times we visited and let's hope this place stays that way read more

We went in with lowered expectations based on reviews here, but this native Japanese person was pleasantly surprised by what we ate. The menu is quite large so I was worried about quality but we enjoyed everything. Flavors are great, not too spicy, and pricing was good for the things we ordered. I'm pretty sure "Golden Curry" is S&B Golden Curry. (For those of you in Team S&B. I'm Team Vermont. IYKYK) The teen loved the anime decor and we had fun reading the manga printed on our table while we waited for our food (ours was One Punch ワンパンマン). The Lady Snowblood cocktail was syrupy sweet, and I wish it had some acidity to balance it out. I really wanted more vodka based cocktail options but I can't be that picky. Okonomiyaki tasted great but the texture of the batter was a little dry or sandy. The Kotteri ramen wasn't as "kotteri" as I expected but it was good nonetheless. Overall this is a pretty good izakaya option if you're in the area. It's on our list for another visit. Pet peeve: it's Ton-KOTSU not Ton-KATSU ramen, folks. Ton (pork) Kotsu (Bone) also Yu-shoku Yu (evening) Shoku (meal) not Yushuku... /rant read more

Grabbed dinner here on a weekend evening and we were seated after the quoted wait of about 30 minutes. We had a great table and good service throughout the night. We appreciated how vegetarian and vegan friendly their menu is - almost everything can be modified, customized or adjusted. We got a few of the appetizers and the fried rice and scallion ramen. The fried rice was SPICY! And the apps were OK - the orange sauce for the cauliflower was punchy. The ramen bowl was probably our favorite. Between this and Indo Asian next door I'd choose the later for a return trip, though they have far less options for vegetarians. read more

Are you looking for a great happy hour? Do you love Asian Fusion cuisine? Then stop by Moshi Moshi in Tacoma's Stadium District! The Cocktails: I was pleasantly surprised by their list of signature and classic cocktails on their happy hour menu. I ordered the Negroni and they did it right by adding a large ice cube! I'm excited to go back and try their Old Fashioned and Manhattan! The Appetizers: The happy hour appetizers were very shareable. We ordered the JFC (Japanese Fried Chicken), the Spicy Beef Dumplings (very spicy), and the Brussel Sprouts. I highly recommend all three. The Ramen: Another favorite is the Tonkotsu Ramen with pork, mushrooms, scallions, and aji soft boiled egg. We added another aji egg to our ramen since we shared. If you're looking for a place with a cool vibe, great drinks and food, definitely check out Moshi Moshi Ramen Bar! read more

I've always wanted to try real Ramen, and I've got to say I'm not disappointed. I always appreciate a place that feeds you full. I had a lot of stuff, and I let someone else order for me, so i can't name what i had, but everything I had was delicious. The things that didn't earn this place a fifth star was the area that it's in dosent have parking for anything being that it's in the university district also it was dark which was fine but they had this annoying rotating LED light moving around and shinning in our faces. All in all, this place earned every bit of its four stars and deserves your attention. read more

Moshi Ramen Bar - Habenero - Ramen Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Date night with bae...the hostess, our waitress and the ambient initially set the mood! All the appetizers were amazing (pork belly bao, Szechuan chili dumplings & karaage chicken). J I'll wasn't a big fan of my spicy garlic miso ramen as recommended by the waitress as I asked what was better; that or habanero tan tan. I think what threw me off was that it had no pork and was only served with tofu. That was my bad for not reading the description thoroughly. My girl loves her Koterri Tonkotsu ramen and so did I! Our cocktails were delicious (Suntory Time Old Fashioned and Snake in the Grass). Met a cute gay guy couple who were locals at a table by us and they recommend awesome cocktail bars in the area so made friends while there so good vibe! Would definitely come back here again. read more

We have been searching for a ramen place around us since we moved here and unfortunately we haven't found one that compares to the one we loved back home. This place is ok, I wouldn't rave about it though. the service is nice and all the staff are friendly.

Lazy service! Called to order a ramen and understandable if maple bacon is only lunch time but suggesting me to pull over and order when mentioned Im on auto mode or pull over and look at the menu when I asked what other ramen she has is not good service. HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION? Never will go here again and ordering somewhere else. Edit; just to clarify i was not driving. My new car was parked and the auto tends to interrupt my data. Just really disappointed in her unwillingness to help me on ordering. Ended up at pho bac instead. read more

Went to try this ramen place with my stepdad. The staff were not knowledgeable about their own menu items. For example, the waitress said that the shio ramen WASN'T salty when I asked (shio is sea salt base broth), and assured me that the gyoza only had green onions sprinkled on top, when it contained green onions inside as well (a food restriction of mine). But the worst offense has to be that the noodles in both my dish and my stepdad's were undercooked. I'm talking hard, unappetizing clumps of noodles. Disappointing. read more

Decided to drop by here for a quick dinner tonight and Moshi did not disappoint! I was seated right away and had the Scallion Miso Ramen with gluten-free noodles; my server Elan did some substitution magic to make the entire dish gluten-free (the veggies it normally comes with are cooked with soy sauce apparently). The atmosphere here is so chill and friendly! I also ordered a Ramune melon soda and didn't know how to open it and this lovely woman sitting at the table next-door showed me how to do the thing! Both my drink and the ramen were sooo tasty and I left feeling quite satisfied. I'll definitely be back. read more

Allergy concerns - Beware Overall, the meal itself was decent and the service (major flub not included) was fantastic. When we ordered dessert, however, we ordered some vegan Mochi for me and some non-vegan Mochi for my partner. When the waitress came back with the tray of Mochi she pointed to what was what. We trusted that and as soon as I tasted the first one I realized it wasn't what I had ordered and it was a non-vegan Mochi. Of the two she pointed at indicating they were vegan, only one was correct. I ended up trying two non-vegan flavors before we got to the correct one. I emailed Moshi Moshi about this over a month ago in order to bring it to their awareness but never received a response. I understand mistakes happen, and luckily I am not deathly allergic to dairy, but posting here for awareness because I fear someone else may be impacted by this lack of knowledge/attention to detail. read more

Very underwhelmed. I know a lot of people in the food industry and everyone has said that I need to try Moshi Moshi. I am a Japanese American, so I take Japanese and Asian food very seriously. I ordered the tonkotsu ramen because it's just a standard try for all ramen places and it was ok. The broth wasn't anything special and the noodles could've been a little firmer. I will say the chashu and the egg were great! Tons of flavors in those. I added gai lan too and it was hard. I got more stalks than leaves. It says there's a yuzu butter of some kind and I taste zero yuzu. The dish just isn't as complex as it comes off in the description. Very disappointed to say the least. My husband ordered the miso ramen and said, "it was the blandest ramen I've ever had". I'm sure your average white person would like this place. I would like to try something else another time in the off chance it was just an off day, but so far I'm not impressed. read more
