Fresh off a flight into town, we were hankering for a good meal. Ramen Nara was convenient and had some good celiac-friendly options so we decided to come in. I had the spicy shoyu ramen. It was just the right amount of spicy where I got a good kick without burning my mouth off. The portion size was fantastic and I was able to leave completely full. read more

This place is good! And the interior has a clean and modern feel to it. The staff is very nice and helpful. They were able to give me recommendations based on other types of ramen I love. Their Gyoza is absolutely delicious and I loved their miso garlic chicken ramen. So yummy! read more

Solid experience top to bottom. I find the atmosphere cozy here and have enjoyed each experience here. I definitely recommend the atmosphere in the evenings if you're going for particularly cozy. This particular time, I dined in for lunch prior to their closing at 2:00 (their typical hours are open a few hours around lunch and then a few hours around dinner). It wasn't busy and I was well attended to. I went with the Spicy Shoyu Tori Paitan and loved every bite. The chicken was pretty spot on, which I was impressed by. I will say the dish on its own wasn't very spicy to me, but with the chili paste available on the table, you're able to make it as spicy as you would like. The wavy noodles were perfect to me as well along with a flavorful broth. Can't wait to return! read more

This is solid 4 star for Bentonville ramen, 5 times better than the other place COOP. If you are from the coast, then don't expect this place to impressive you, but I would eat it again since NWA is an Asian food dessert. read more

Tony is always our server; we literally just moved here from Houston! This was the frist restaurant tried in the entire area. We absolutely love the Ramen. It was so delicious and fresh perfectly made. My favorite Ramen is the one with the fried chicken in it so freaking good Tony is still serving us almost 3 years later we adore him. He's always so friendly. I love having the benefit of having the same server every time we come. It's like building a relationship with the business that we so love to support. Keep doing what you guys are doing. It's awesome. Oh by the way, the ambience is awesome as well always clean always bused tables, very chic and industrial vibe. I really like the blue jean tapestry. read more

I live in the near by area and this is our go to place for ramen. I have have tried a lot of things on their menu. Love their vegetable curry rice, spicy chicken karage and miso ramen.

Ramen Nara - Kimchi ramen - Ramen Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

High quality ramen in northwest Arkansas. Ramen is comfort food for me and their tonkotsu ramen is impressive. Broth is nice and rich (not too fatty) and noodles have a nice texture. Broth flavor well seasoned - creamy with plenty of umami and not too salty. The soft boiled egg (ajitama) had the perfect creamy yolk. Could have had two servings! read more

Ramen Nara - Interior - Ramen Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

This is the fourth time that I'm trying to order food at this restaurant online. Every time I try, their site didn't load and I need to call to complete my order.. Every time I called the restaurant I was informed they are not taking orders by phone and I should keep trying (maybe forever) using the defective site. It's so sad and frustrating that a restaurant with really good food can take my orders online or by phone . In his way, they will keep losing customers simply because they are not able to understand the customers needs nor attending the customer requests read more

Quick and good service! We ordered a few appetizers to start our meal and to be honest they tasted better than the ramen... Veggie Potstickers 4/5 Pork Potstickers 3.5/5 Vegetable Croquettes 3.9/5 Takoyaki 3.6/5 Miso Tonkotsu Ramen 3.8/5 The noodles were good but the broth itself lacked flavor, it wasn't as rich as I would have liked. Also, the chashu was that tender...but not bad. This is the only ramen spot I've tried in Arkansas. read more

Food was great! We had a number 1 and 3 ramen and the dumplings. Only negative was the soup could have been a little hotter. 4.5 stars

One of our favorite restaurants to dine at when we visit NW AR! Food is always great!

Absolutely my favorite ramen in NWA. I crave it all the time. Beautiful space but also great take out!! Tastes as good either way. Staff is also awesome. The chili oil is so so so good. read more

Best ramen I've ever had. We sat at the bar. Great atmosphere and friendly bar tender. Absolutely will becoming back.

This place deserves a michelin star and is very much worth the trip. The broth they serve with their ramen is richer than me and I go with the lady once a month to indulge in tasty savory flavor WOW. Go go go here! Quick! Tasty! Awesome! read more

Just making a note for myself: the veggie gyoza & melon cream soda were also great. Wish they'd put a couple more chicken pieces into the ramen tho. read more

Food was delicious everything was extremely clean and service was great extremely attentive

My husband and I came in for dinner and had a great experience. The inside looks super cool and cozy. Our server was really nice and helpful with making recommendations. Both of our ramen bowls were absolutely amazing and we definitely plan on coming back. (If you go on a Saturday, try to get there before 6pm or it gets super packed. Understandably so, this place is amazing) read more

Unfortunately, I took a pic near the end of my meal, but this ramen was perfect! This was the Miso Tonkotsu Ramen (added chili oil for spicy miso). Delish! Tip: Order an extra soft boiled egg! read more

Ramen Nara - Miso Tonkotsu Ramen (added Chili oil for spice) - Ramen Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

There's a wait on a weekend, so you know it's decent, as northwest Arkansas typically doesn't have much for waits. Also, Ramen Nara is one of the few Midwest asian restaurants that gives you chopsticks instead of typical cutlery, so there's that. First off, the water is DELICIOUS. Somehow that stuck out to me. And the water cup and chopstick combo was of clean aesthetic. To the point I'd copy it in my own kitchen. Though admittedly I prefer wooden chopsticks for my ramen to the metal ones found here. We started with the Takoyaki, and it was quite good. I've had others that feel like molten lava once they rupture in your mouth, but these were actually served at a good temperature. 6 pieces total, so perfect for the 3 of us to split. I ordered #1, the Hakata Tonkotsu. I always start with the egg, which was slightly cold, but flavor and texture was absolutely perfect. Chashu pork was underwhelming, in fact maybe 2.5/5. But the chicken karaage I borrowed from my brother's #9 was exceptional! As a whole, the broth, noodles, and vegetables were a great combo. I added a bit of the red spice oil and the flavor blossomed. Not too salty, and nothing was overpowering. Was it the best ramen I've ever had? Well, no, but it was solid and I left happy. If you're craving ramen, it's probably the best in the area and will absolutely satisfy the craving. Especially if you go with the karaage. read more

My favorite ramen place in NWA. They have a small menu with appetizers, ramen, rice dishes, and dessert. They have seafood, chicken, and pork ramen options. My favorite is the #9 GARLIC MISO TORI PAITAN. I always get a side of black garlic and chili oil for added flavor. Gluten free noodles options are also available. The only downside is that they close at 8:30pm. read more

Me and my husband enjoy eating here some of the best ramen around ! They are really quick with service too!

Very cute and quaint atmosphere. There was no wait time and there's ample parking around the restaurant. It is a very intimate space but it gets pretty busy in there. I'm always leery of trying places with the many allergies, dietary restrictions, etc but the staff was extremely supportive and accommodating of my needs. They tripled checked with the kitchen and ensured that I would be able to eat there. We would've like the appetizers to come out all at once and then our food but everything was good. I would've liked to see more variety of vegetables and flavor in the gluten free ramen but we were still pleased. read more

Always the best, most consistent food. We eat here at least once a month. Never misses! One of our favorite restaurants in Bentonville.

Delicious, novel and great service! We will be back. Don't skip trying this place. Multiple safe and enjoyable experiences here. Allergies are taken seriously. Be careful to still insist on a safe area in kitchen, glove change etc. read more

My go-to ramen place in the area. Been here multiple times and was never disappointed. Ambiance is great and perfect for dates. There is plenty of parking in the front. Service is usually great and food is served pretty quick. In appetizers, I would definitely recommend Spicy Chicken Karage. Meat is always very tender and packed with flavor. In ramen, my favorites are Hakata Tonkotsu and Tantanmen. Their broth is rich, thick, and full of flavor. Noodles can be asked to be cooked super soft. They put generous amounts of meat in. Overall, their ramen bowls are very well put together and can easily fill you up. My partner usually tries their Chicken ramen and surprisingly karage goes pretty well in ramen. In desserts, I would recommend their chocolate mochi ice cream. It is delicious and a great intro to mochis if you have not tried one before. Definitely recommended and the best ramen in NWA area. read more

This restaurant feels like one of those concept places put together by a restaurant group that did some analysis and decided what would make them some money with the area's changing demographics and expectations. Maybe I'm wrong, but I can't imagine anyone involved cares much about Japanese food. The cracks start to show in this sort of business eventually. Case in point: the chicken curry. Now, I admit that I read the description for the pork curry, which sounded fairly normal, and just ordered what I assumed would be the chicken variation (seeing as I'd had a lot of bacon and sausage already that day). I wanted a nice chicken cutlet, breaded and fried golden and sliced into lovely strips, a classic chicken katsu curry. Well, that's not what they do here. So that's on me, for not reading the description for the chicken curry, which would've told me not just that they're doing something different--which is fine, I've had Japanese curry with chicken chunks in it and probably other chicken variations too--but also that Something Is Very Wrong Here. "Grilled chashu chicken." First off...to the best of my knowledge, there's no "chashu chicken" in Japanese cuisine. It's always pork. Chashu is a technique for cooking pork that's based on another technique, which originated in China. And you don't use chashu pork in curry, because the curry sauce has a strong flavor, and the flavors would fight each other. There IS chashu chicken in Hawaiian cuisine, but it's very different, and yet as far as I can tell, that's what they've done here. Seems like an odd choice. (It's tasty by itself, but not what I expect to get at a Japanese restaurant, and I can't imagine it going well in the ramen either.) It's true that Japanese pickles are traditionally eaten with curry rice, but not these pickles, which are sweet yellow ones called takuan. Tasty, but not normally served with Japanese curry. Fukujinzuke are the right pickles here, and they taste really different. There are a lot of different vegetables you can put in Japanese curry. These were listed as carrots, shelled edamame, and onion. They were...crunchy? Extremely bizarre, never had such hard veggies in a Japanese curry before. They may have been lightly steamed/shocked/blanched, which is not the right texture at all. The edamame were fine, but the onions and carrots really were not. I would have sent the entire order back at an actual Japanese restaurant based on this, and I hate sending things back. My partner said his ramen was good. We've eaten ramen all over the West Coast and Japan, including Nara, which I think (by an odd coincidence) might be the first place I ever had actual ramen. So he really means it. But I can't get over the wrongness of the chicken curry. read more

Ramen Nara - Chicken curry (don't do it) - Ramen Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

I had the miso tonkotsu (pork and chicken stock and thicker noodles) and my wife had the hakata (thick pork broth and thin noodles) tonkotsu. My broth was good when I added chili sauce. The soft boiled egg was tasty. I should have ordered extra chasu pork since it was a smallish pair served. Overall, the ramen dishes were good and the price reflects what you get. For the money it's a good value read more

Ramen Nara has become one of my favorite spot in Bentonville. I am very picky with food so this says a lot about this place. I come to Ramen Nara at least twice a month. They offer great food and service. Speaking of service, I feel compelled to write this review because of extra service I received today. I came in without a voice (lost my voice from viral infection). When the mail waiter (he is the only constant male waiter in Ramen Nara), realized that I lost my voice, he brought me a warm water with lemon and honey! He sure did went extra mile to accommodate me. If you like Ramen and asian food in general, I highly recommend Ramen Nara, you won't regret it! read more

Ramen Nara - Garlic Oil witn karage ramen - Ramen Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

The garlic ramen bowl was so yummy! Would definitely go back again to try another kind just for funniest, they were polite too!:)

The food is very genuine and tasteful. It's always our first place to go. The service is excellent.

Not bad overall. Pretty tasty ramen but needed more broth as the way the bowl was shaped, there wasn't as much as it appeared. Service was average. Atmosphere was fine - nothing super fancy. Takeout was unappealing. I was going to order takeout but when I called, I was told that I would have to do it online and when I got online, it was going to take 45 mins. Another issue is that you can hear what everyone is saying in the kitchen. I'd probably give this place 3.5 stars but unable to leave half stars so I averaged up. I might return but not sure I would recommend it. read more

Ramen Nara - Ramen Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

This is one of my standard ramen places I'll drive an hour away for because it's so authentic and delicious. They make their ramen noodles in house with a machine you can see by the bathrooms. The ramen here is bursting with flavor and they have a generous portion of meat. They sort of scrimp on the egg giving you only a half which doesn't make much sense to me. The appetizers are also great. The Takoyaki is delicious. Chicken Kaarage is cooked and fried like most traditional Japanese places. They also serve green tea and black sesame ice cream. They also have some fantastic wall art that you could stare at for hours. It's enjoyable to just sit there looking at the art and use it as a talking point. If you're in the Rogers area looking for good ramen you can look no further, you've arrived. read more
