Shaka Ramen - Tonkatsu and Spicy Beef Ramen..sorry it's all gone - Ramen Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Sadly, they are no longer a late night option. Food was good for an affordable price late at night, but we may rarely visit now that their hours align with other options. We pulled in at about 10pm a while back to find them closed. No change in hours on the door, it still said close 11:30. Last week we tried again around 10pm, and found that they had updated the hours on the door to 9:30 close. Update for my update, we made it a point to go before closing, around 8:45. Food is delicious, decent value, very hot and tasty. Ramen combo is much bigger than other places and feels like a full bowl. read more

Overall experience so far is homey and welcoming. About to order the Black Garlic Ramen based on the best seller recommendation.

I'm sooooooo LOVING this cozy family restaurant! This is my third time here with my family. No wait time, lots of parking, friendly server and the food has been hallelujah soooooo good! First time, shoyu ramen , second Combo plate: small ramen, you can select base soup between shoyu,miso, etc., & 1- 2 side dishes : gyoza, vegetable roll, calamari, small curry plate. 3rd visit calamari curry! The calamari curry is INSANELY yummy! This has been by far the best calamari I've ever had. The batter to calamari ratio is on point! It's so crispy on the outside and the calamari is so soft and tender. Finally! Calamari that I don't have to chew a zillion times just enough to swallow it! Lol The shoyu ramen is pretty taste as well. Lots of selection! read more

Shaka Ramen - Calamari Curry - Ramen Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Good Menu lots to choose from. Excellent main courses, side dishes and quick service. Reasonable prices and nice portions. Comfortable seating, Will visit again and enjoy another delicious meal read more

The free ice water could be improved/filtered better. I assume it's the ice because the water was fine until the ice melts, leaving a bad aftertaste. I ordered the black garlic ramen and got the free gyoza for this review. The gyoza is surprisingly good and you can tell that they make it in house. As for the ramen, it's good, but could use more black garlic or something more pungent, to elevate the flavor. The noodles (ramen) itself is well cooked, with a good bite to it. Overall it was good. Only thing they should improve is the interior decor. read more

Trying Shaka Ramen again, tried Miso Ramen & Tantan Ramen along with the typical sides chicken katsu, mochiko chicken, mini curry and gyoza. Solid affordable typical ramen type restaurant. Feels very similar to Dai****** ramen. Though the menu here has some other additions. Would definitely come again. read more

Shaka Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

FYI...they have a new parking system in place. I asked the waitress about it but she said don't worry about it. Um, we dont wanna get towed. So we scanned the qr code and you input your credit card info. If you go over 2 hours your card will be charged. I ate quickly then walked over to Tea Cafe to order Boba drinks while the rest finished up their meal. I don't like giving my cc info out if not necessary. Anyways, their food is just OK for me. Its switched a couple times since the original tenants, Daiichi. The takoyaki has shrunk in size since I visited there last. read more

Good service and fast dish serving time, thank you! Ordered ramen with my family and they enjoyed it read more

The special combo is filling! Part one: Select from ramen or udon, along with shoyu, miso or shio broth (add $2 for a specialty broth like tan tan or black garlic). Part two: select two items from a variety of options (I selected the gyoza and mini curry; but options include takoyaki, croquettes, and many more). They make their own gyoza and their sauce is good! I even tossed some in my miso ramen;). I also spooned in some garlic bits, provided along with the typical array of shoyu, vinegar and gyoza sauces, arrayed in pretty blue and white serving jars. I added another star because upon packing up the mini vegetable curry plate that I couldn't finish, our lovely server not only packed it for me, but added extra curry sauce from the kitchen, and then provided a reusable tote. See notes, they've changed owners, their name, and expanded their menu. Enjoy!!! read more

This place is great! Conveniently located by Pearl Harbor after a day of being hungover ramen hit the spot. The service was great, attentive and swift. A lot of options of ramen and great sides incase you're looking for some extra meat. Feels very cozy mom and pop vibes. Would highly recommend and for sure visit again when I come back. read more

Shaka Ramen - Inside - Ramen Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

A reliable ramen place in Aiea that closes late for those last minute get-togethers or those late night ramen cravings. This place is casual and that's one way to describe the ramen as well. It's not super amazing, but it's not bad like other places I've seen. The main reason why I've come here is because it's the only one open until 11PM. My friends and I stayed here until 10:00PM and there were still customers trickling in and even customers from the gym who ordered ahead of time so their ramen was ready as soon as they walked in; pretty awesome customer service if you ask me. Overall, the ramen was good, the special combos are better IMO. Like many other ramen places, I would suggest the 2 choice combo because you can take home another meal. My husband ordered the ramen + curry + gyoza for only about $17 which is a great deal in Hawaii. And yes, you can take home the curry. I would also suggest for a second meal to try the fried rice or mochiko chicken. Either way, can't go wrong with shaka ramen! read more

We ordered black garlic ramen and tonkatsu ramen. Portion size is good. Black garlic ramen smells really good but the taste is more on the mild side. Service is attentive. read more

Shaka Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Came here tonight after I landed from my trip to San Diego. Wanted to eat something local and Asian since I was eating pretty much Americanized food in San diego. Unfortunately after covid, not too many places are open late during the weekdays in our area. It's nice to know that this local establishment stays open a little bit later than most places, so that way folks can get a good meal even if it's late. I ordered the combo with Ramen, Curry, and mochiko chicken, and a side of gyoza. The price was fair, food was good, and the waitress was very attentive and friendly. I will definitely be back in the near future. read more

Shaka Ramen - Curry with Rice , Shoyu Ramen, Gyoza, and Chicken Katsu. Very Delicious! - Ramen Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Food was great, we love the garlic chips on the side. We always go for the combo meal and it's so filling!!

Shaka ramen is a good ramen spot if you are looking for quick and affordable ramen! It's definitely not on the same level as Wagaya ramen, but more similar to Ramen-ya or Daiichi ramen.. We got the black garlic ramen, Super Bowl ramen, and deep fried oysters. The black garlic ramen was more flavorful than the Super Bowl ramen. We will likely get the black garlic ramen again rather than the Super Bowl. The deep fried oysters were crispy and fresh. Service was super quick, however we did come here on a Wednesday night so it was slow. Waitress was also very friendly! Theres a lot of free parking as well which is nice. Overall, we'll be back if we just want a quick ramen fix! read more

Trying this place out for the first time.. looks like a local dine. Clean eatery. Adequate AC. Cute decor. Food did take a while, only 1 other party.. ordered 3 noodles and it's taking over 10 minutes Food not bad'! will come back read more

Idk how this place got 4.5 star. Maybe I came on an off day, or I ordered wrong food? But for a place with ramen in their name, I had to order ramen. Friday night ~7:30pm. Less than half the restaurant was full. Parking: Lots of free parking right outside Food: Tan tan Ramen was tasted very watered down. Lacked flavor, tasted very limp. Only good thing about it is you're getting less sodium in ur diet. First slurp of soup was luke warm. Maybe it's because of cold toppings? Menma and egg was cold. Tbh probably the worst ramen I've had at a restaurant in a while. Chicken katsu was alright, like L&L. Service: food came out quickly (hence the 2 star). Service wasn't bad except for one thing. Dropped my napkin on floor, waitress just picked it up and put it back on my table. I didn't want a new one but for the sake of cleanliness I felt like she could have offered a new one. As a former waitress I would have offered a new one. Makes me wonder about cleanliness behind the scenes. Would not return, wouldn't bother giving this place a second chance as there are better ramen places fairly nearby at pearl ridge. read more

Sunday lunch with my gf and her father, of course it's a busy time and we decided to try out Shaka. We were very lucky to get parking in front of the shop. I will say that with the other places there and because they only offer take out, lots of cars coming in and stopping there for pick up, which can be stressful to say the least. Any case, menu reminds me of the menu from places like Ramen Ya. Nothing wrong with that as it can fill you up. Ordered food amd was told that the cook was gone and it was a good thing that they knew how to cook those dishes we ordered. Anycase, it was a weird vibe, seemed very rushed and all in all...probably will go there as the option if people don't want to wait as other places are busy. On a side note, youngs Kal bi next door seemed to be pumping out orders....will need to try that place out next time. read more
