    GARLIC BLACK SPICY  ガーリックブラックスパイシー
    Patrick L.

    Hole in the wall ramen bar covered in anime decor, is the perfect way to fully encapsulate Origami in 1 sentence. If you're an anime lover, then the interior filled to the brim with anime stickers and posters adds to the fun you'll have while waiting for your food. Noise level is 3/10 if 10 means bustling and loud. I want to make a very specific note about their pork used in certain bowls, this is the first time ever I've had pork on the sweeter side. It's interesting for the initial bites but I still prefer the straight savory pork chasu flavor 99% of ramen places serve. The broth was half thick but still goes down well, but I wouldn't say it reached the expectation of spicy was there when there's an emphasis in the title for its spiciness. My final verdict of Origami, if you're not wanting to go far from the bordering Chandler-Ahwatukee area, give this place a shot.

    The food was fantastic! The service was amazing!! And it looked amazing inside! There was vegan options inside and it tasted so good! Absolutely must go spot!! Will be coming back soon

    The food was amazing, it was beautiful very authentic. It was a hole in the wall place, but had great service. Great for seafood lovers, meat lovers, and people that don't like meat at all.

    Golden sea salt ramen
    Kat V.

    I love shio broth and golden sea salt ramen here is my absolute favorite. There are lots of delicious garlic. The bamboo shoots are tasty, not have strong aroma. We ordered on their website and the food come out fast. They have iced green tea in can. They are small but serve big tasty flavor of food.

    I wish I tried this place sooner. It's very relaxed, got tvs with anime usually playing, lots of anime and manga decor as well. The food is soooooo delicious . I get the Spicy miso ramen usually. 10/10 if anyone asked me to go here vs somewhere else I'd absolutely pick this spot every time. We love to come here and open our pokemon and one piece packs, it's perfect. We also tried the coffee this time, everything on the menu is perfect!!

    Spam onigiri rice ball
    Emma N.

    This place was super cool. I loved the decor too! The ramen was incredible. I also tried the spam onigiri rice ball and the California rice bowl which were both delicious. The ordering is done through your phone, but the staff were all nice.

    Really great little ramen spot- if you enjoy Japanese pop culture, manga and anime, then that's another awesome bonus! The interior is cleverly covered with anime and manga references including stickers, posters, adorable plushy characters, and an epic painting of Kakashi Sensei himself! Don't let that deter you though, with or without a love for anime, the food is flavorful and memorable. I tried the classic ramen and the husband got the Katsu Curry and wow, they did not disappoint! The noodles were cooked well, the broth was well seasoned but not too salty, and the curry tasted authentic. They have a wide variety of fun soda flavors too. We will be back!

    Rich Miso Ramen

    Went on a weekday night and didn't have to wait for a table. Digital menus are available via a QR code at the table, and you can order straight from your phone or through the tablet on the table. You pay before the food is brought out to you so you don't feel trapped waiting for the bill to come when you're done eating. I had the miso ramen which admittedly didn't have a strong miso flavor. To me, it was really garlicky (I believe fried garlic and minced garlic both come as toppers). However, it was still really flavorful and I enjoyed it. The pork belly (you have a choice of protein) were two generous pieces that looked bland, but were tender and tasty. I'd definitely come back again.

    Strawberry green tea
    Judy L.

    The place is small but so cute. The decorations are so fun! I walked in first and they are sit where you want style. A staff member is bring water and let you know you can walk up to order at the kiosk or scan your table QR code and order from the app. When my friends got here, we ordered from the app. I got the Strawberry green tea, fried chicken, and Cha Su Mein. The green tea was not as sweet as I would like it and I normally order 50% less sweet. The fried chicken was very good, super crispy and juice inside. The dipping sauce add a lot of flavor. Loved the display of the Cha Su Mein. It was very delicious as well.

    Spicy chicken ramen, original chicken, edamame and Furikake Fries!
    Heaven R.

    Food was good! You have to order from an app and tip right then and there as you're placing your order.. I found that quite odd. Someone reason my phone wasn't loading. So I wasn't even able to use that platform. I had to go to the back to place the order with the server..she didn't mind. Overall the food was delish! Anima stickers EVERYWHERE! Super fun place to be at. I liked , it was small and busy. P.S LOOK at the photos of the food before you add additional toppings we clearly didn't.

    Garlic black spicy ramen
    Lei G.

    Stopped in for a ramen lunch. Ate the Garlic Black Spicy, positives were there was a lot of garlic & the broth was flavorful. It's odd that the default meat is chicken, and you have to pay extra for substituting for pork. Most all ramen restaurants default to pork vs chicken. The Fried Gyoza was ok, the sauce with it was not flavorful so asked for chilli oil to add to it.

    Sophie K.

    Very cute ramen restaurant in Ahwatukee! It feels cozy and it was cool to see that I can order and pay with their QR code. Convenient! Tried their chicken ramen, it was good but kinda pricey for the amount and toppings that came with the ramen. I might try something else next time!

    New garlic ramen
    Mikaeli B.

    This place is super cute! I love all the anime decor, it's definitely a vibe. The place itself is rather small and the ordering process was a little confusing. Our "server" wasn't overly helpful or friendly, which is fine because it was mostly counter service anyway. We started with the fire cracker dumplings. They are crispy and you get a good amount. The filling is pork, a generous amount, but nothing else stood out about it. I was hoping for more aromatics and/or vegetables in the dumplings, but they were fine. They are covered in eel sauce and spicy Mayo I believe. For ramen, I ordered the spicy bowl and my boyfriend tried the new garlic black spicy. Mine was incredibly creamy but I think, for my preference, lacked the spice element. I ordered it with pork and the chashu was pretty standard. I will say, I did not love the noodles in either bowl. I love a chewier noodle that's holds it's integrity but for me these weren't it. They were just dense in my opinion, but that doesn't mean they were bad. The egg is each bowl was a little disappointing. Not necessarily jammy how I prefer and lacked flavor in my opinion. The boyfriends bowl was quite aromatic and intense in flavor, we love that. The addition of minced garlic (looked like jar-lic) on top amused me. He had chicken and it was fine. Nice thick cut pieces but no real significant flavor. I believe we spent around 50$. I think that's pretty fair nowadays. Each bowl is roughly 15-17$ without the addition of extra toppings. I'm glad we tried it. I think the atmosphere of this place is its best quality. I personally probably wouldn't drive out of my way to go back.

    Maybe their prices are a bit higher but the quality of their food backs it up and reminds me of my trips to Japan.

    The service was 20/10, the kindest people I've ever had waiting on us in the USA…read more We came late and didn't realize the closing time. They told us to please stay and we are so welcome and they were over the top accommodating. Everything was so good. The spicy miso wasn't my favorite flavor but that is just a personal preference. They gyozas were so delicious I will come back again. When we left the people who were working, were all enjoying dinner together like a home family vibe going on. It was so cute and they were some of the most kind people I've ever come across. Definitely give this place a try

    We had been craving ramen for days--it kept popping up on our social media feeds over and over…read moreagain--so we finally gave in and decided to try this spot. They offer a nice variety of Japanese dishes, but we were definitely here for the ramen. I ordered the spicy miso ramen, and it came out just right--perfectly spicy with fish cake, green onions, and all the toppings. It was delicious and hit the spot. The tonkotsu ramen had a nice creaminess to it, but it could've used a bit more depth of flavor. One thing I really liked is that you can order side appetizers along with your entrée, almost like building your own bento-style meal. We went with the deep-fried gyoza and gyudon. The gyudon was a standout--definitely five stars. The gyoza, however, was just okay for me. Breakdown:    *   Spicy miso ramen:    *   Tonkotsu ramen:    *   Gyudon:    *   Gyoza: Service was friendly, the restaurant was clean, and overall it definitely satisfied our ramen craving.

Cold Soba was a good portion, tasty & super cold just like the Korean Mul-naengmyeon. Chicken Katsu was fried. Perfectly but still moist & juicy inside. Pork Katsu satiated my craving. Big portion, fried perfectly & still juicy inside. Served on a metal rack to keep it crusty with a scoop of white rice & shredded cabbage. I didn't taste much sesame in the mayo based dressing, but it help cut the heavyiness of the fried food. Also came with pickled veggies & bowl of warm soba soup base.

I went with the black belt curry which is a 50/50 split of the japanese vegetable curry and the braised pork belly dish they have. Found myself a seat under a nearby tent- there are plenty of options since people are constantly rotating in and out of the tables. It was a warm day - be sure to try and secure a shady spot. On to the food, the portion was massive. My wife and I picked on a few other things before here, but we both have healthy appetites. The black belt curry was rich, hearty and absolutely delicious. I still remember the potatoes in that Japanese curry - they were slightly chewy, creamy and I couldn't get enough of them. The braised pork belly was tender, rich, and very flavorful, not too fatty which is something you often have to worry about with pork belly curry dishes. All around fantastic spot and I would highly recommend. The Japanese curry screams "comfort" while the braised pork belly screams "rich" if that helps you decide, or just get both like I did with the black blet!

My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this stand at Uptown Market a couple weeks ago, and were so impressed by the 50/50. The dish is half curry -- deliciously thick and made from scratch -- and half lu rou fan, which includes the softest, flavorful pork belly. It also includes a few delicious pickled cucumbers and a perfectly jammy marinated egg. Lao gan ma always available to top!! The owner, Jonny, is so welcoming and enthusiastic. He was so happy to have us sample his unique drinks (a frozen thai tea and a lychee lemonade with jellies), and we were so thrilled to honestly say they were delicious! The thai tea flavor was really strong and aromatic. The price is super fair for how much you get. Our dish was packed to the brim, and they really don't skimp on the pork belly. Will 1000% make this out go-to farmer's market meal.
