Having been going to this restaurant with my family for years. So far have never been disappointed. My favorite is the Fried Chicken Curry Ramen. Highly recommended. Yummy! read more

Got the beef ramen combo with veggie dumplings, and lychee boba (takeout). Food was ready quickly. But the pricing wasn't clear. It said the combo was $18, and the boba was $5. But then the total came out to $29 after tax?? Apparently I got charged an extra $3 for the beef?? Then the way they package the food could be improved. So there was a container with the broth, and a smaller inner container holding the other ingredients. It was a little inconvenient to get out, but once I did, I dumped it into the broth. But the noodles were on the bottom, meaning they were on top after the flip. So I was stuck just eating my way through the noodles before I reached everything else, and it was all in a big block, so it took a while to soften and loosen up. Also the container was kinda tall, so it was awkward to get the fork in there. Anyway, the food itself was good. The broth had a lot of flavor. Beef was fine, but could've been browned more. Veggie dumplings were awesome, and the lychee boba was obviously delicious. read more

Been meaning to try this place out. Very friendly staff, and everyone in my family of four loved their meal. The different broths were all was delicious. Service was fast and entire restaurant felt fun and inviting. Looking forward to going back, as the menu was very large. Plus, they have their own parking lot! A huge plus in Englewood. And... this place is very affordable. read more

Small confession: I don't like ramen. But I had a lunch date friend with a friend here, so I was elated to find an entire page of the menu dedicated to curry entrees. Here's the short end of it: if you're on the fence about ramen, you can still have a great meal here. I ordered the Karaage curry, which came with four chunky pieces of fried chicken between a mound of rice and an impressive pool of beef curry. I love curries, and this was no exception. There's just nothing like that characteristic smokey, flavor-blasted blend of spices in Japanese curries. On the slight downside, there wasn't a ton of beef in the curry, but it sure made it exciting when I happened upon occasional bites with meat chunks. The Japanese iced coffee is a presentation unto itself. A small pourover sits above a cup, ensuring a fresh brew. That drips onto a small puddle of condensed milk while a cup of ice stands ready by the side. It's a zazzy, interactive process toward a cup of iced coffee that tasted just fine. There's a lovely, cozy vibe to this restaurant that the warm, non-hurried service just accentuates. Service was attentive without intrusion throughout. There's a small, free parking lot right in front, which is certainly a boon in the parking-less void that is this part of Englewood. read more

After renovations, this place looks a lot more updated/modernized. I had the lunch special which included ramen, kimchi, and coffee. Very filling along with the appetizers that you can choose from. The meat was bit tough and the bao bun tasted a bit stale/tough. The spicy chicken had a lot of their spicy sauce and it was a bit overpowering on the sauce part. For the lunch special, I wasn't given the coffee until I reminded them again, which I then had to take to go. The coffee was great though, enjoyed the strong taste although not much was given. I was waiting for a while for a server to come to me although there was only one at a time so I don't put it past him during busy lunch hours. Regardless he was friendly and attentive to my order so they were appreciated. Not sure if I would come back but it would satisfy cravings in a pinch. read more

I really liked this place! I had the spicy sesame miso ramen. They put the spice on the side for me, which was a good choice but I'm sensitive to spice. I really liked my broth and that pork belly was delicious. The person I was with had the tonkotsu shoyu and they enjoyed it. I believe I had a lavender lemonade drink and it was good. I couldn't believe how cheap the prices are. If this place were closer to my house, I'd be a regular customer. The ambiance is casual, it's cute inside. My only complaint with the service is that they didn't check on us for a really long time after dropping the food off so I had to wait forever to ask for something. read more

I was having a huge craving for some authentic ramen. We hadn't been back for a while, and we wondered if anything had changed. I can honestly say, they have... for the better! For one thing, there's more indoor seating now. We were seated quickly, and our waiter handed us the menu. Based on my older photos, I'm pretty sure they've expanded their offerings. I noticed right away that they now serve Vietnamese coffee, and being a coffee lover, I simply had to try it. The waiter asked if I wanted it iced or hot, and I chose iced. Out came the Vietnamese coffee dripper, slowly dripping rich, aromatic coffee into my cup. On the side was another cup filled about three-quarters full with ice. I ordered the combo: Tonkotsu ramen noodles with a spicy pork rice bowl. The broth of the ramen noodles was incredibly fragrant as well as flavorful. It was not overly salty, as I find in many ramen restaurants. The noodles had the perfect QQ texture. Moving over to my spicy pork rice bowl, it was such a comfort bowl. You definitely have to stir before you eat, as the bottom of the bowl has all the spicy sauce. I am a huge fan of these types of bowls. As I ate happily, my phin filter finished brewing. The waiter had already placed condensed milk in the cup, so I gave it a quick stir. Taking advantage of the freshly brewed warmth, I sipped it hot first, then poured a bit over ice to compare. My verdict: if you enjoy a robust flavor, drink it hot. If you prefer something smoother and less intense, pour it over ice. Personally, I loved it hot, but be aware, Vietnamese coffee has more caffeine than espresso. It's sweeter too, thanks to the condensed milk. Our waiter made it not too sweet, at my request. He absolutely nailed it. Outright nirvana. They have a small parking lot, plus additional street parking. Outdoor seating is still available, which is lovely when the weather's warm. Phenomenal food and beverages. Highly recommend! read more

Went to Ramen Azuma for dinner on a Friday. They have a small parking lot in front of the restaurant. It's a pretty big ramen spot, with big glass windows and big wooden booths. We were seated pretty quickly, and given menus. We ordered the calamari, fried chicken, cucumbers, miso soup, and spicy chicken for appetizers. They're small but cheap and they were all pretty good. My favorite was the fried chicken karaage. The spicy chicken was the same but with buffalo sauce. I got the volcano ramen. It had a huge pile of toppings on it. Unfortunately, most of that pile was shredded cabbage and bean sprouts. There was enough to fill a small bowl once I had removed it. The broth was not very spicy, and it was very greasy, I did like the noodles and the four soft boiled eggs. The chashu pork was sliced thin and it was tender. I also tasted the chicken curry. I liked that a lot, it was just sweet enough with a bit of heat. If I came back I'd get the curry. read more

After receiving several recommendations from family members, my daughter and I decided to try Ramen Azuma instead of our usual spot inside Mitsuwa Marketplace. We chose to order takeout and eat at home. I first asked my daughter to go inside and grab a physical menu so we could look it over in the car before ordering. When she returned, she mentioned that the two men working at the front seemed a bit rude. I brushed it off at first. When we were ready to order, we both went inside. I approached the two employees at the counter--one tall east asian? and the other, slightly shorter southeast asian?--and told them we would like to place a takeout order for both me and my daughter. After I said this, the taller employee began snickering and walked toward the kitchen. The other employee appeared to struggle to hold back laughter as well. I asked him if there was an issue, and he responded that they were laughing about something that had happened earlier, saying, "Nothing, nothing." Regardless of the explanation, the behavior felt extremely unprofessional and disrespectful. It gave the impression that they were laughing at us, which made the interaction uncomfortable. If employees feel comfortable laughing in front of customers like that, it raises concerns about their professionalism overall. Unfortunately, we will not be returning to this establishment, which is disappointing given that we had heard such positive things about it. read more

Definitely new AND IMPROVED. We've dined in at Ramen Azuma in Hackensack and this Ramen Azuma for takeout, but this was our very first time dining here since their expansion and, boy, Ramen Azuma has definitely raised their ramen game. We dropped by on the Sunday of their location expansion promotion week in October where they offered all of their ramen bowls for 50% off and it was so worth it! Finding ramen for under $10 is just unheardof in 2024 (or post-2020 for that matter), so when we read about the promotion, it wasn't a matter of if, but instead when. When we arrived at 11:30AM, there was a mob of customers outside already waiting to go in. Guess word got out and everyone had the same mindset? Anyhow, we were still easily seated due to the fact that the restaurant basically doubled in size for their expansion. My wife and I didn't waste any time what so ever and we ordered calamari to start and we both got the Deluxe Ramen, which typically cost $17.50, but on this beautifulllll Sunday morning it was only $8.75 each! For our kids, we got the Chicken Yizu Shio Ramen, which was a ridiculous $7 because of the promo. Yes, I have to admit, when you find a good deal, food usually taste a lot better, but, to be perfectly honest, everything was excellent. The calamari was very crispy and crunchy and the ramen and broth of the Deluxe Ramen were actually VERY, VERY, VERY good. I wasn't too impressed when I ordered takeout a long time ago, but this experience absolutely convinced me that Ramen Azuma is possibly up there with some of the best ramen restaurants in NJ. The Deluxe Ramen did have a lot more of everything - 3 half eggs, cha-shu, nori, corn (we subbed it for the bamboo), mushroom. The ramen noodles and broth were super tasty and delicious. I loved everything about it - the noodles, cha-shu, eggs. Even though I was stuffed, I EASILY could have eaten another one because it was so damn good!!! Service was swift and quick throughout, so no complaints there. The parking lot was a bit on the small and tight side and especially with the number of customers coming for the deal, it felt even tighter. However, don't let that deter you one bit from coming here because the ramen was sooooo good. read more

On a chilly and rainy Monday evening, we decided to warm our spirits at Ramen Azuma in Hackensack, and it turned out to be the perfect choice! This cozy spot not only warmed our bodies but also lifted our souls with its delightful offerings. I opted for the Shrimp Wonton Shoyu Ramen, and let me tell you, it was a bowl of comfort! The classic soy sauce-flavored broth was light yet bursting with flavor, perfectly complemented by the silky shrimp wontons. The wavy yellow noodles were a fantastic recommendation, adding to the overall deliciousness of the dish. Each slurp was satisfying, and it's safe to say this ramen is a true standout. We also decided to expand our culinary horizons by trying some sushi for the first time. While it didn't disappoint, I wouldn't say it's worth waiting in line for. The spicy tuna roll and España roll were decent, but the ramen truly stole the spotlight and deserves all the accolades.

Ive come here multiple times with friends and family. The restaurant is small but cozy. The food is delicious and I love their combos/sets such as the ramen that comes with karaage.

The service is great! The food is amazing. I am on a gluten-free diet. I got their vegan tonkotsu broth and toppings with gluten-free ramen as they are the only 2 gluten-free combo on menu besides edamame and cucumber as appetizers. I also added corn and garlic oil on the side of my ramen, and they do warn about risk of cross contamination regarding toppings outside the 2 combo I mentioned earlier. As for taste, broth was very rich especially with garlic oil. The toppings were enough and contribute to flavor, especially the mushrooms. The ramen noodle was perfect, not undercooked or hard like most gluten-free noodles I tried before, but also not overcooked for mushy texture. Moreover, I enjoy this combination in my meal very much and look forward eating here again. Thank you Ramen Azuma of Englewood! read more

Ramen goodness in Jersey! Went to different locations and this ramen place does not disappoint! Location: It is located along Englewood. There is few seating inside and a bar. There is seating outside but not heated. Lot of street parking. Service: They were very attentive and nice. Food: they are famous with their ramens but I always order the combo. RAMEN and YAKINIKU: this is my favorite cause the ramen broth is so delicious and the beef yakiniku is so tender and tasty. PORK CUTLET PLATTER: the tonkatsu was tender inside and crispy outside, comes with miso soup and rice. RAMEN and CHICKEN KARAAGE: the chicken is crispy and cooked into perfection. SHRIMP TEMPURA: its like the one we buy in costco, this is my least favorite. GYOZA: its delicate and the pork and chives are tasty. LAVENDER LEMONADE: it was okay, too sweet. THAI TEA BOBA: this is better, so milky and not that sweet. Price rating: 7/10. Not bad for the goodness that you'll get. Visited this ramen place multiple times and it's always a good experience! Definitely will come back! read more

The atmosphere was nicely spaced and I appreciate that they have their own parking lot in busy Englewood. There are so many different kinds of ramen to choose from, including vegan. In fact there are many vegetarian + vegan offerings. The spicy miso vegetarian ramen I had was incredibly delicious. Such a generous portion, I only ate half and took the other half home. The addictive cucumbers were indeed addictive. I tasted sesame and some secret umami. The vegetarian gyoza were also quite good. The Japanese coffee was special (I'm usually a tea drinker). My teenage Grandson, who is a real ramen aficionado, gave his seal of approval to the Teriyaki chicken ramen. I would give everything A+, except for the vegan brownie, which was like chewing chocolate crazy putty. It's so rare to find vegan desserts on a menu, but this disaster should be taken off, it gives a bad name to vegan desserts. Still, the ramen was so exceptional , I will return! read more

I remember when this place first opened - a little hole in the wall spot that they turned into something from all the 4 and 5 star diners who think this place is over the moon. But I'm here to set the record straight or at the least give my 2 cents. Hands down one of the worst locations serving up "Ramen." The food was prepared in a bath of re-used salt, grease and water, and for as long as it took to prepare, I would have thought I was getting psyched up for what should have been one of the best ramen cuisines outside of China but clearly I was mistaken - are people just eating anything these days. My order - gyoza, which was so hard; the dough was tough and would not break when I took the bite, and the sauce was like thick tasteless glue. Two orders of the spicy sesame miso ramen bowls, one non-spicy. Horrible, just horrible - the undesirable noodles taste like dough and are bathing in a bowl of luke warm greasy muck. Trashed both. I waited nearly 20 mins for a bowl of high cholesterol and hypertension. Spare your health and pockets, find another place to spend your coins. read more

This is one of my favorite local spots to grab ramen in North Jersey. My go-to order is the Spicy Tonkatsu Ramen. A little background on my taste in ramen - I usually prefer spicy ramen because it's more flavorful and my favorite ramen of all time is Ichiran. In general, I have not found many ramen spots I like in NJ (especially when comparing to Ichiran). The tonkatsu broth is creamy and flavorful on it's own! (TIP: try the broth without the spice before mixing it in). I always like to take a few sips and savor the salty, creamy taste before mixing in the spice. The noodles are always fresh and are the perfect "al dente" texture for the broth. Topped off with fresh green onion, chashu, and kikurage - you really can't go wrong with this dish. I'm also a big fan of the lavender lemonade. Highly recommend this drink if you have a sweet tooth! Bubble teas are good here too. Only reason I'm giving this review 4 stars is because the chicken within the side dishes is inconsistent sometimes (too much breading, sometimes meat is a little pink). The gyoza is also just okay - worth trying but I've had better. The service is always fast and efficient! I've been here several times and always get served pretty fast. Location is also great for a quick lunch or dinner! There is a parking lot in front of the restaurant but it can get packed during dinner time. There's also a lot of street parking so I've never had any issues finding a spot. read more

I wish I was able to try the food at this restaurant. I decided to give it a try while waiting for an event to start in the area. I walked in & was greeted & I asked if I could take a seat at the empty bar. I sat waited & reviewed the menu for 25 minutes! No one came over to ask if I was ready to order I locked eyes with the host several times & absolutely nothing. If as I walked out & snapped a few pictures absolutely nothing. I will never set foot in this establishment again. read more

Both were great but our preferred was teriyaki. Very fast service and filling dishes. read more

Ordered off Postmates and got delivered quick. Tried their tonkatsu and gyoza dumplings and everything was pretty good. The packaging was definitely top not h as it separated the broth from the content all in one bowl. Pretty cool. Tonkatsu with the yellow noodle was very good, could use a little bit more meat but it was still filling. Gyoza was good too, what you would expect with takeout. I'll def try eating in at the restaurant next time. read more

It's our first trip here in months. The menu has changed drastically, lots of new items in the menu. I was happy to see I can do combo of ramen and curry now.

Yummy tonkatsu broth. It was not too runny, not too thick, rich and flavorful. I'm not a huge Japanese ramen fan and would prefer a rice dish but this one is a strong contender. While I did order a side of rice and curry it just didn't leave a lasting impression compared to the noodles. Ordered the shrimp tempura as well and those were some small battered shrimps. My only complaint was that everything was served warm but not hot. It was like they waiting 10 mins to bring the entrees out. If everything was bought out boiling hot and freshly fried it would've made the whole meal even better. read more

Good ramen at an unbeatable price! I ordered their tonkatsu ramen to-go through Uber eats, and they had a BOGO ramen deal for $14.50. I've never seen such a great deal for ramen in this area. The ramen were well packaged with the broth, noodle and toppings in each own separate containers. You can also request the noodle to be uncooked, so you can cook it to perfection at home (no soggy, takeout noodles here!). The ramen came with slices of chashu, seaweed and half an egg. The chashu that came with the tonkatsu was a little dry and thin, but given the price, I'd say its ok. Egg was perfect and jammy. The broth itself was rich and really flavorful . I really enjoyed it! read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon at around 4. The place was packed, but thankfully we were able to get a table in 10 min. I got a black garlic tonkotsu ramen and gyoza combo and my boyfriend got a spicy tonkotsu ramen. Black garlic tonkotsu ramen: 4/5 The broth was rich and creamy with a nice hint of garlic. The egg was perfectly cooked with a jammy yolk. My only complain was that the chashu was really dry and hard. Spicy tonkotsu ramen: 4/5 The spice in the broth was interesting. I'm not really sure but I think the spiciness was coming from sichuan peppercorn? I personally like it but my boyfriend think that was a little odd. And again, the same problem with the chashu, too dry Gyoza: 4/5 The gyoza came with three different sauces. Not sure what they were but two were sweet and one was vinegary and they all added nice flavor to the gyoza. Wish the gyoza would have a crispier bottom but the flavor was great Karaage: 5/5 Crispy and nicely fried! The overall total with tips came out to be $45, which is pretty cheap for ramen with appetizers! The service was also very fast. I think we only stayed there for around 30min. Good place to eat if you want something fast! read more

Generally speaking this place is fine and a solid star joint. The ramen itself was okay, nothing crazy amazing but it was perfectly fine. There wasn't anything super special about the garnishes like as the roast pork or other accoutrements. The tonkatsu broth itself was decent and not overly salty, albeit a bit greasier than others that I've tried. The combo deals are decent and the prices are pretty good - and the combos we tried (chicken teriyaki and gyoza + noodles) were fine. The chicken was a little weird in that it was fried and the gyoza were pretty small, so the latter combo might not be filling. The edamame side was fine - really good portion for the price so it's a worthwhile one to add to mix. The lavender lemonade was pretty good and refreshing and I would recommend it, even tho it was a bit pricey ($4) for such a small amount. There is a giant tower option for $20 but I'm not sure if that's reasonable for most people. The seating here is fairly small inside but there is plenty of outdoor seating. The service here was very mixed. The host was very friendly and helpful but the servers were all very scattered and needed extra effort to get their attention. They were friendly enough but this is something that needs to be improved about this place. Otherwise, it's a fairly straightforward establishment with reasonably priced food options. read more
