My favorite Ramen spot ever, especially on rainy days. My husband gets the Tonkotsu Ramen, and I get the Tan Tan Ramen, each with Ni-Tamago. I rarely see a Tan Tan Ramen on menus. Be prepared to wait for your food. Good ramen is made to order, so it is not immediately served. If the restaurant is busy, be prepared to wait even longer, but it is worth the wait. The price is incredibly reasonable considering lower quality ramen in the Omaha area is charging upwards of $17 dollars a bowl. The Kara-Age is delicious, and even the spicy tuna roll (a guilty pleasure of mine) is good. The Ambiance is simple and clean. I would recommend it to anyone wanting quality ramen without all the Anime themes and dusty Tchotchkes littering every wall. read more

We stopped here on a whim one night after spotting it on our GPS while looking for dinner. Even on a Thursday night there was about a 20-minute wait, which felt like a good sign. Once seated at the bar, our waitress was quick to greet us and bring drinks. Service stayed prompt and friendly throughout. We started with the shumai and gyoza. Both were solid, but the shumai was definitely the highlight of the appetizers. For my main, I ordered the Tan Tan ramen and it was exceptionally good. The broth was rich and full of flavor, with just the right amount of heat. We'll definitely be coming back. read more

I recently visited Rizin with a friend for a casual dinner for the first time and I was pretty impressed. The food is very good and our wait staff was friendly. There is a great value for your money here for what you are getting. It was t very busy at the time we went on a weeknight so we were seated and served quickly. The location is great and there is plenty of parking in the village. I would most definitely recommend this restaurant! read more

Hands down the best ramen spot in Omaha. It's a small space with a great selection of ramen, rice bowls, fried rice and sushi rolls. It is casual and fairly priced. I had the veggie ramen and it was AMAZING!! The flavors were great, the tofu was perfect and I ate it ALL (even though it was a huge bowl!) The woman working the front counter was also the waitress and she was working fast for being the only front of house person there. I highly recommended bringing buisness to this small ramen shop! read more

Check this place out! Some of the reviews are old. I stopped by Rizin after work for dinner and ordered the Tonkatsu ramen without any extra toppings. The ramen had a delicious cut of pork belly that "melted" into the bowl so easily, thinly cut bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, and a healthy portion of green onion. I was given pickled ginger and minced garlic on the side, which is more than enough to make a great bowl of ramen. This was probably one of the most balanced bowls of tonkatsu ramen I've had. The staff was friendly and seated me quickly. I didn't wait too long for the ramen but the shop didn't seem very busy (5-10 people inside). The restaurant was clean and had nice bar seating (with big stools unlike some places) and the overhead music wasn't too loud. Overall, great cozy spot for these freezing winter nights! One of the only shops I've been to that leaves you full but not sluggish after your meal. read more

"Oh, there was a problem in back. Ok decor and staff. Nine four-tops, so the place can fill quickly. Surprised by the number of people eating here. read more

Rizin Ramen is pretty close to our house so we have been there many times, but I just thought to review them now. Let me tell you, if you are a fan of traditional ramen - this is your spot! The interior is bright and clean with a black, white, grey, and red color palette. When you walk in there is a cute little waiting area with a booth and their logo (and we have had to wait a few times we've went so I appreciate that). There are several tables in the dining area, and they're ALWAYS full when we have gone and that's definitely how you know it's good (along with the waiting area they need to have LOL) The service is fabulous, with our server (on our last visit) checking on each table so many times - and considering they were so busy with patrons - she was killing it, keeping up with everyone! My husband and I will usually each get a ramen bowl and one or two sushi rolls to share. Our favorite sushi options are the Vegas Roll and the California Crab Roll. They are both crab with the California Roll being more refreshing and light and the Vegas Roll being deep fried and having cream cheese in there with the crab. Both are amazing! For ramen, I usually like the Miso Bowl, that has chicken and pork broth. It comes with a large piece of pork inside that literally melts in your mouth. The broth is super tasty and smooth with the mixture of the two flavors (chicken and pork) kind of cutting each other and making their own little creamy chicken-noodle-soup style taste. My hubs will usually get the Tonkatsu, which is in a solely pork broth, and also has the mouthwatering pork pieces, but he orders extra of the pork and also adds corn (which is a good idea, I might do that next time). If you're in the mood for authentic ramen that won't break the bank, definitely give Rizin a try! read more

Love coming to this place. A very simple menu and atmospheres the staff is always very kind and the wait isn't usually too long. The best ramen in town as the place is owned by a Japanese team. If you haven't checked our Rizin you've got to put it on your list of places to eat! Food is great and the price is right. read more

Very nice and friendly staff. Clean and neatly decorated restaurant. I like when you can see the kitchen... it was very clean and well organized. I ordered the Tan Tan, which is the spicy miso base with chicken & pork broth. I thought it was perfect and everything complimented the next to make a perfect dish. This is the perfect dish to eat on a cold Omaha day. I also ordered the Kara-Age, which is fried chicken and I thought it was cooked very nice, seasoned perfect and tasted great. Prices were reasonable and I thought the prices for add-in were fair. Warning, the only protein they serve with ramen is pork. But this was fine for me. I look forward to returning and trying other items on their menu. read more

Yum! This is my third ramen spot I have tried in Omaha this week, and it is my favorite so far! Coming from the west coast, I was really interested to see what the ramen here is like. Plenty of parking, quick service, good prices. I got the tonkotsu ramen ($11.45) and added a soft boiled egg ($1.50). Definitely add the egg! I am a big broth person, and the other spots I tried here in Omaha didn't really satisfy my ramen broth cravings. The tonkotsu broth here was good! Seems like a small local hole in the wall type of location. Would recommend :) read more

Might be a new favorite ramen spot in town! I just happened to pass the store one day on my way elsewhere and decided I should try it one of these days. It's located at a strip mall in Rockbrook next to a Scooter's there's plenty of nearby parking. The inside isn't too big but there's enough seating for the amount of traffic it seems to get. Not super trendy but has standard ramen shop decor. This seems to be run by a couple and the wife is the server. She's pretty friendly and prompt. The food here is pretty reasonably priced compared to other ramen places. I ordered Chicken Karaage and Tonkotsu Ramen. Honestly, the karaage wasn't what I was used to. Most places I've been to serve it like popcorn chicken (like here and SoCal) and that's usually what I see on the internet too. This Karaage was certainly fried chicken but it was interesting that they used like cuts of chicken to fry them. Still tasty! One of the main reasons I'm rating this place so high is that this is like the only place in town I've tried with actual pork chashu and that does it well. It's super tender here, while some other places fry it to the point of being dry or it's not legit chashu and they just throw in a slice of ham. It only comes with one slice, so in the future I would add a slice. Would recommend this place for sure! read more

Rizin Japanese Ramen - Best ramen place in Omaha, definitely always coming back! - Ramen Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

I just wanted to update this by saying that, after having traveled to Japan, and also gone down the West Coast eating Ramen in different places, this place is possibly the closest you can get to a small town authentic Japanese Ramen place in terms of flavor. That being said of course there's many varieties and flavor profiles in Japan but coming here takes me back to rural Japan any day. read more

A great place to go if you want authentic ramen at a reasonable price. It is a small space that seems to be short-staffed, so please keep that in mind and be patient. I got the tonkotsu ramen with a few added items. I definitely want to try their spicy ramen next time! read more

Rizin Japanese Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Favorite ramen in town!! We tried Rizin after our previous favorite shop disappointed us 3 visits in a row (bland broth). Definitely happy we gave Rizin a go.. it'll be our new go to place! Seems like a husband/wife duo running the place- she runs front of house and is incredibly sweet. We sat at the bar and got to watch the chef prepare all the ramen bowls- he's a machine! Too fun to watch. I was pleasantly surprised by how large the bowls were.. all the pictures online look deceivingly small. Checkout my pictures to see how tall they are! The paitan shoyu broth was incredibly rich, savory, and creamy. Best broth I've had and would even be good with added chili oil. The noodles had a great chew, and the bamboo shoots were nice and tender. The interior setup isn't super unique, so if you're big on ambiance this isn't the place for you. But if you love amazing food with a chill, small environment, this is it! 10/10 recommended read more

They have Ramen and sushi and Japanese beer and etc.. we tried a lil of everything. All delicious. I love there sushi and the atmosphere they have. It not that big on the Inside but I think that actually makes it better. Just a cool spot to eat some great food and watch anime if that's your thing. Or if not, try it, you may find out it is. Or just get take out lol. read more

This is by far the BEST ramen in all of Nebraska. I had the tonkotsu ramen, which was surprisingly light and refreshing compared to versions I've had at other restaurants that give me a food coma. The noodles were cooked perfectly; they were chewy and very effectively carried the delicious broth to my mouth. I just wish there were more toppings included like an egg and seaweed, but you can add them to your order for a slight cost. The takoyaki was also excellent. It was crispy on the outside yet soft and pillowy on the inside. They were even generous enough to put two pieces of octopus inside, which I appreciated. The service was also very good; the waitress was attentive and food came out quickly. The restaurant was clean and cute, but was not very special otherwise. The owners appear to be a Japanese couple, and their quality cooking reflects the pride they have for their heritage. Considering everything in addition to their reasonable prices, you cannot get a better bowl of ramen anywhere else. If you are craving ramen, you need to come here NOW! I will definitely be back to try all the other items on their menu. read more

Rizin Japanese Ramen - a bowl of ramen with an egg and spinach - Ramen Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Delicious Ramen here at fairly affordable prices compared to the rest. When I looked at their menu from a year ago before coming the other day, I was surprised that they hadn't changed prices. Many of their bowls were under $10 at their base offerings which is about $3-$4 less than Jinya and Yoshi Ya. On a Friday afternoon, the traffic slowly shuffled in until this quaint establishment was packed. A single woman took care of all the tables while I believe one man did all the cooking for the whole restaurant. They definitely hustled and still served everyone in a reasonable time given the circumstance. Onto the food...this was one of the better Ramens I've had but I felt it was maybe a smaller quantity than at other places. The sliced pork for sure was less than I've had at most and it tasted ok at best (unfortunately really fatty). So I ordered my 2 year old the fried rice and that was one of the best fried rices I've had and again, It was a bargain at under $5. While I enjoyed the ramen, I definitely prefer Jinya or Yoshi Ya...probably Jinya. But I'll be back for the fried rice! read more

Tonkotsu ramen, and Dumplings were phenomenal! 8.5/10. Great ambient and nice customer service.

My friend told us about this restaurant, and I had to try this. We've been really missing Okinawa the past few weeks so this made us hopeful. The owners were so friendly and were excited to learn we had been to Japan. We talked about restaurants we miss and how much this restaurant reminded us of Oki. My shoyu ramen was delicious and tasted just like soy ramen I used to get. The gyoza made my mouth water. I can't wait to go back and order more! Our boys will be super excited to come here as well. read more

Simply quiet, small warm restaurant and very active server. They serve Japanese ramen and their new items are on the menu. If you are looking for an authentic Japanese vibe, look no further. Their menu contains ramen and small amount of sushi. I love how their toping is very accurate. I love their ramens. But I do think they could do a bit better on a takoyaki. read more

NOTE: the food itself was probably 4stars! I am more so taking into account the entire experience, food, pricing, service, and environment. This place is pretty small (maybe 8 -4 top tables) so conversation from everyone else's tables could be heard from ours. We were sat quickly and ordered fairly quickly as well but the Friday that we went, there was one server and one cook on staff so it took a decent amount of time for our food to come out. A party of 8 came in before us so we were in line for meals after them. The menu had I believe 8 different broth/flavor options for their Ramen some including soy sauce, chicken/salt(fish sauce), soy/miso, and more. Fried rice options, additional toppings for your ramen, and a small sushi menu were among other things that they offer. Each additional topping was at least $1. Sushi was about 4-6$ a roll, the ramen was $10 per bowl, and the fried rice was under $10. Our server was sweet, and the food tasted better than I expected. I think just with the wait for our food and the funky atmosphere from the crammed dining space is why I chose 3 stars but like I said, the taste and quality of the food itself was 4 stars so if that's all you care about in a restaurant, then ignore my commentary. read more

This hole in the wall/Scooters neighbor is the most authentic Japanese restaurant in Omaha. It is not easy to spot right off Center and the 680 North, but worth the visit for the reasonably priced ramen, generous portions, and excellent Japanese food. I always order the pork belly bowl with green onions, chicken karage, and miso ramen. Each are delicious and I recommend getting each for the consistency and quality. Sushi can be good but I don't think sushi is the highlight of the menu, most of the time I skip for the ramen. read more
