Ramen hit the spot! I highly recommend the mint tea which went perfect with the raining evening; very subtle, yet fragrant fresh mint leaves. The karkamen was fantastic, although I would probably get a ramen bowl that doesn't have the chopped pork in it next time (and just so sliced). Despite that, the flavor of the chopped pork was good, just not the texture I was looking for. Sub the half boiled egg for a soft egg and it was phenomenal and added a creaminess to the bowl. No spice at all, but the chili oil offered in the table setting added the flavor needed. Great experience and decent prices. read more

Legitimate ramen! Visiting Amsterdam from New York, and was craving some ramen on a rainy Dutch afternoon. Was told by a local friend to check out the newly opened Ramen-Ya in De Wallen (which appears to be getting a bit of a face lift, for the better). Although it's not Japan, New York has a pretty robust ramen scene and I thought Ramen-Ya could easily make a name for itself there. Ippudo, Toto Ramen, Chucko are all places I visit regularly and this was definitely up there. Ordered: - Mint Lemonade - Miso Ramen read more

Yesterday we went to Ramen-Ya with the yelp tour organized by Ana! She did a great job! When we arrived she greeted us and on the tables were little printed menu's with the dishes on them. When I told her that I didn't eat meat she went to the staff immediately to inform them and also managed to get me a discount as well., Thanks! I loved this nice hidden restaurant! the interior was cozy and stylish and it was much bigger than I expected! I loved the lamps above the tables! The waiter was also very friendly so the atmosphere in total was great. I tried the veggie ramen and absolutely loved it. I agree with AJ that the tomato was a bit unexpected but it did not bother me and the dish was amazing. The veggie broth was so delicious and rich in taste! The noodles had the right structure and everything was just perfect. The amount of soup was perfect for me and I enjoyed every bit of it. I also really liked the Calpis drink! Sweet and different but nothing to strange. Very nice and refreshing! Both the regular and the cassis one. I think Ramen-Ya serves great food for a good price in a lovely styled place. I had a great time and I will be back :) read more

I spent 2 weeks in Japan last year and this was on par, and slightly better than some places in Japan. food: the tonkotsu broth is rich yet not heavy or oily. Chewy noodles, fresh fatty pork slice, thick pieces of bamboo shoots, and very nice service. price: 11.50 euro for the basic salt based tonkotsu ramen I would highly recommend this one specially on a cold night. read more

Being from Houston and had my fair share of good/decent Ramen, this has got to be the worst Ramen i have had. Sadly this was my first meal in Amsterdam and it definitely ruined my appetite. Our waiter recommended The Hakata miso based for the Hakata Ramen. All three of us went with his recommendation and all three of us couldn't finish half of our Ramen. The broth was wayyyy too thick and the noodles were too chewy. The owners was shocked when she came by and saw three untouched noodles. We just politely told her that the Ramen was too different for what we used to in America. So if you're from Texas or any places with decent Ramen, be warned. This place is not like what we used to in the States. read more

I enjoyed the Hakata style ramen here and also enjoyed the fact that we didn't have to wait for a table. I ordered the Hakata Deluxe and my wife the regular Hakata. We also ordered a side of the pork belly buns as an appetizer which were quite good. The milky broth of the ramen was quite dense, very flavorful, rich, savory, and with a nice slightly spicy kick to it. The noodles are of the thinner variety here but very toothsome and much aplenty. read more

Seems really good fresh made ramen. Conveniently located near the Dam square and the red light district. . The wait staff are less friendly and no facial expression while the service is just a matter of of a job. Since we came for the food and not the wait staff, so just enjoy. read more

Ramen-Ya - Ramen Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

I've had ramen in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York so I wasn't sure what to expect in Amsterdam... but this place is great, and one of the best! Decor is beautiful and the spicy kimchi ramen is very tastey and comes with the best soft-boiled egg I've ever had. You can also get chicken instead of the pork if you're into less greasy/fatty meats in your ramen read more

I had low expectations (being in the red light district of Amsterdam and all...) for this place but was pleasantly surprised at how good the broth was. The noodles were nice and firm. The pork should have been warmed up before topping it onto the ramen as I noticed a temperature difference, not a big deal though - everything together was super tasty. I ordered the original Tonkotsu Shio and my hubby got the creamy chicken ramen. I liked mine better. Get mine :) read more

Ramen-Ya is a decent spot for ramen; it's a solid choice to curb cravings. The noodles are the right amount of chewy, holding up well in hot broth instead of becoming mush. While the broth is thicker than I'd like for tonkotsu (more like tsukemen broth), it's rich and tasty. It can be a tad salty, so I have committed the cardinal sin of adding water to the broth in the past. The highlight was the onsen tamago - silky, soft egg yolk that breaks beautifully into the broth. I'll try out other ramen spots in the city to see how it compares to Ramen-Ya, but so far, this is my regular spot whenever I get serious cravings. NOTE: I miss delicious tsukemen from Tsujita. Tonkotsu style from Yukinoya or Ramen Yamadaya. Shoyu ramen from Men Oh Tokushima. I've been blessed to have tried some delicious noodles and broth in Los Angeles and New York. So if you're looking for some regional styles, Amsterdam is not your city. read more

I rate this place a 4 compared to the other ramen-ya places that I have been around the US. They serve mostly ramen bowl dishes and a few extra toppings and sides. They offer a few selections of alcoholic beverages and drinks. The location is located at the corner facing the canal. It has stairs to go down to the restaurant, I see no elevator so I'm not sure if it's whee chair accessible. One positive is the portions of the dishes are good for the price and the service is about 10min before receiving your food. read more

Ramen-Ya - This is our receipt. Pricey I think. - Ramen Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

The ramen's average but the space is hip and the service is great (and somehow KPN 4G reaches their basement space). The gyoza is really good -- the kara-age, less so. I need to try the other ramen joint in town, but this is a great place for a soup noodle fix. read more

Overall Score: 3 Service/Ambiance Rating: 3 Food Rating: 2 I walked 30 minutes in my conquest for noodles and I was quite disappointed. I was in the mood to splurge and got the most expensive noodle on the menu. It was a miso based soup with slices of pork. The broth was heavy, but they had warned me so. The whole bowl was warm and not hot; I personally prefer soups and noodles really hot (in terms of temperature). The garnishing on top was a bit much. Perhaps this is a traditional garnish for this meal? It seemed to overtake the ramen as I mixed it in. Overall, it was underwhelming. read more

Ramen-Ya - ramen with (thick) miso - Ramen Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

It angers me that there aren't more reviews for this place. This was literally the best ramen I've ever had in my life. I've had my good share of ramen from multiple cities. Look no further because I've done the searching for you! Go here and try their ramen, you won't regret it! The noodles were perfect and you get a hefty portion of chasiu that just melts in your mouth! I think of this place ocassionally and it reminds me how blessed the people of Amsterdam are. I can't wait for an opportunity to visit again! read more

Ramen-Ya - Best ramen ever - Ramen Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

Finally, a decent ramen spot in town! I live close to Fou Fow which many people rave about but I found lacking in depth of flavor. Ramen-Ya, on the other hand, seems to take great care in creating that nice creamy broth - the menu description for the Hakata ramen even mentions that it's cooked for a least 10 hours! Add to that some seriously tasty ingredients - that pork! - and you have a great heaping bowl of comfort for a decent price. I also sampled a friend's spicier bowl of ramen and I can't wait to go back and order that myself. The place is well equipped for date night and huge crowds alike - we showed up with a group of 12 for lunch and were seated immediately, no reservations required, and I hear that this is often the case during peak dinner time as well. Food was brought out fairly quick after ordering as well! read more

Glad Ramen-Ya is around to satisfy my ramen cravings as NYC is too far away haha Went there for the first time a few days ago and I gotta say not bad, not bad! Shared the pork buns and while they were absolutely tasty I have to agree with a fellow yelper that the mayonnaise sauce could be replaced. It kinda brings down the excellent flavor of the pork and makes it too dutch for my taste if that makes sense. Anyhow I had the sesame chicken shio which really hit the spot, broth was delicious. Another thing that was delicious was their lemongrass ice tea, quite possibly addicting! I'll definitely be back for more and to try their Hakata. read more

One of the best ramen I've ever had! The restaurant was easy to find, located near Dam square and De Bijenkorf. I liked the ambiance, the interior decor and the service. Their homemade lemon grass iced tea was to die for!! So refreshing! I think I'll try to replicate it at home. ;) Left the restaurant with a satisfied belly. read more

I've never had real Japanese ramen before, so I can't compare this place to other authentic ramen places, but I can say that it's a hell of a lot better than the ramen you get for 60 cents from the grocery store. Holy cow what a difference. It costs 20 times more than that little dried out package of ramen, but it's worth it as an occassional treat. I had the standard salt broth house specialty ramen with pork in it, and while I'm not normally a fan of pork, this was pretty good. It was rich and flavorful, and even the overboiled half an egg in the soup went well with everything else and didn't squick me out. I found the ratio of noodles to broth to be perfect. I finished both at the same time and wanted more. My husband had the chicken soup ramen, and wow that was a great version of the traditional chicken soup. I wish I had something like this when I was sick. We went with our 3 year old on a weekend, at around 5pm when they were not too busy. They were accommodating and got her a bowl so she could have some noodles too. She enjoyed some noodles but spent most of her time playing under the table, and later dancing in the open area next to the host. They were very gracious and if they were getting annoyed they didn't let on. Our little girl is usually pretty quiet but she does take up a lot of room with her dancing. We were grateful the food was brought quickly, and the check was brought quickly as well when we wanted to leave, so that helped us keep our restaurant toddler wrangling time to a minimum. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice bowl of hot noodley soup. Een aanradar! read more

Some of the best ramen I've had in a while. i love trying authentic ramen and last time was somewhere in Asia. that broth was super heavy but the ones here were normal. i got the salt broth which was not salty. superb noodles. I may nix the long strings of green onion they put on top next time but I still give it a 5. also everyone mentions the mint lemonade but I got the lemongrass tea and it was life changing for me. it made the tea taste like it was made with raw sugar cane or something but I loved it. a lil on sweet side. JEANS: OK by far ORDER: at counter read more

I enjoy visiting this authentic ramen house. The ramen is always well done and thoughtfully prepared. As well, the staff does a great job of tending to your needs. A great place to go alone or with a group of friends, as the dining space is roomy, and well sectioned. Check out their other great items too, you won't be disappointed! read more

The place has decent ramen (especially for the price), but not super memorable. The broth was quite salty, I chucked a couple cups of water after I finished the meal. The highlight of the meal is actually the pork belly and fried chicken buns we got. They were quite good! Overall, decent place, especially if you're in a hurry since the space seems pretty big. read more

Have begun my journey into better soups, ramen, etc. Ramen-Ya was very tasty, deep broth, firm noodles and that yummy egg adding some richness on top of the pork broth..mmmm Place: a nice respite from the crowded streets of De Wallen. Clean decor, great staff. Prices escalate quickly so be careful of the adders. I stuck with the basics and will be back. read more

It is pretty easy to find, however do take note that the entrance is underground. It's quite reasonably priced. The place has a decent environment and the staff are very helpful and friendly. The food was served quite quickly. As someone who has tried many ramen places, the ramen served here is decent. Won't say it's amazing but it is pretty alright. Good place to hangout, away from the relatively busy streets of Amsterdam. read more

Good ramen, but not the best. The broth was a little bland, and overall, we left agreeing that the options we have in LA are much better than this place. However, admittedly, in terms of ramen in Amsterdam, the quality beats out most other places. read more

BEST RAMEN IN AMSTERDAM. We were visiting for a week. We loved this place so much we came back a second time before we left. Get the "Karaka-man" (spelling) it was amazing. read more

being hungover from the previous night and a tourist, me and my friend opened yelp as we wandered aimlessly in Amsterdam. popped open yelp and i joked everything around here have good rating. I then saw that there was a ramen place and nothing beats a hangover like a nice bowl of soul noodle. entrance (1:30pm): we walked up to the door with an open sign, but was honestly gravely confused if the restaurant was open at all, the door will only push in and the hostess/front of house was not present. I should deduct a star for this but it's really their operational loss as how would a restaurant compete with the other touristy attraction when it looks dead before anyone even walks in? walked downstairs and i was greated with a sight of the kitchen and all the workers standing about, kind of a deer in headlight look about them. a waitress seated us in a table/booth of our choosing. the waiter was very helpful and helped us order a hakata deluxe miso ramen with extra pork belly, chicken bun, pork bun, and edamame. we ordered the house ice tea and lemongrass tea in an attempt to brush away our hang over. the tea was quickly served up and the house tea was delicious. however, the tea comes already sweetened. I'd much rather they brought it to me unsweetened and allow me to sweeten it to my liking with a sweetener of my choice, but alas that may be my fat American ass talking. I should duck a point here too, the appetizer, edamame did not show until the ramen was served. what's the point of an appetizer if your main entree shows up before it? the taste leaves much to be crave bit it wasn't overly salty. moving on. the ramen was on-point and i will say it's one of the best ramen I've had. the broth is perfectly made and rich with flavors, not overly oily and definitely not blend. the special meat that the deluxe has is definitely better than the standard pork belly meat. I had asked for the noodle to be cooked on the hard side as an afterthought and it was made known to me that it is an option noted on the menu. this option is so important in my opinion they should have made it more obvious it can be done. the noodle was average tasting and didnt stand out to me, the texture was OK but they did all clumped together. the onsen egg was on point but I also found a huge piece of egg shell on it. the half boiled egg is perfectly done and have flavor, only issue is like with all other place, the coldness of the egg distract from the warm rich broth. the biggest complaint I have is the excessive onions Putnam the middle, it can be a bit excessive. when the ramen was finished, there was definitely enough broth left that they should teach client the option of ordering extra noodle and toppings after to fill any additional starving bellies. the pork bun and chicken bun was mediocre and nothing to write home about. the pork bun should definitely use a thinner and thicker piece of meat for it to warrant a proper review. all in all, the ramen broth was on-point, noodle done so that there was no complaint, together with toppings that didn't distract (much), i have to say this is number 1 to 2 ramen I've ever had so far. good job and keep up the good work. read more

Excellent ramen, fast and friendly service, and convenient location. We ordered the kimchi ramen and the Hakata shoyu ramen (both with extra eggs) and a side of gyoza. If the noodles hadn't been so filling, we would have ordered seconds--it was that tasty! I preferred the kimchi ramen and, much to my dining companion's frustration, kept sneaking bites when I could. The lemongrass iced tea was the perfect accompaniment, and while the gyoza wasn't the best I've tasted, it did the trick. The staff was chatty and helpful, and the music selection trendy. read more

The food, atmosphere, and staff are very friendly. They speak English so that's a plus if you don't know Dutch. I ordered the Kimchi Ramen which was really good. My friend ordered the Sesame Ramen and it was okay, really bland. Edamame was delicious. :-) read more

A bit more expensive than what I would normally pay for ramen, but it's ramen in Amsterdam. We got the special ramen and a miso ramen, and both were good, though I thought the broth was just a bit too rich/thick for my taste. The chashu was done wonderfully--tender and flavorful. We also got gyoza, which must have been good, since the picky toddler ate almost all of it, and I didn't get to try any. Props to the staff for putting up with the fidgety toddler. At one point, we thought he pulled out a wire from the wall, but they assured us he didn't break anything, and told us "it happens--kids" or something like that. read more

I'm sad to say the last times I've been here the ramen was bland and the appetizers were nothing special so I deducted a star. Still a superb location, very clean and good service but too bad the food is not the main star. read more
