Great experienced. Got seated quickly for two, no reservation on a Saturday night. Server and waitress were very smoky & kind. The busser kept the table cleared. It was our first time so the server went over some things on the menu with us. The food was tasty. We got the truffle ramen (I Love truffle) & the spicy chicken ramen. Both were great! Zero complaints. We also got the chicken bites appetizer and after we got these little salmon sushi bites. Whatever it was it was all fantastic. Would visit again for sure. The lighting was bright & the place was smaller so searing was a little tighter but it just made it more on the cozy end. read more

We've been here a couple of times and each time was good. Plenty of parking so don't worry about that. There was a few minutes wait to be seated but this place got packed fast both times we came here even at abnormal times like 3pm on a Friday. Inside was clean and looked super busy with all the tables populated. Anyways, we got the combo both times where you pick your ramen and one side for $20. We ordered the Classic with an extra pork chasu and an extra egg with karaage, the Blaze with a pork bun, the Shoyu with gyoza, the Shoyu On Fire and a spicy tuna roll. The Classic was good and the extra pork chasu and extra egg were much needed. The Blaze is a little bit spicy but good. The karaage and pork bun were not bad. The Shoyu was good, the Shoyu On Fire was the same but spicy, the Gyoza was okay, and the spicy tuna roll was not bad. I would recommend any of those as they were good overall to me. There were other things on the menu that I'll have to try in the future. Good place for ramen and this would be our new go-to place for ramen because of the combo. We'll be back! read more

Oh my goodness, this place is really good! A friend took me here for a soft opening, and it was worth the drive from Gilbert. They have a nice menu selection. I ordered the delicious garlic Ramen... so much food, I took home some. The edamame was a little overly salted but still yummy. The service was excellent. Our waitress was attentive, filling our waters frequently and sharing order progress in the kitchen. The restaurant itself is modern but still laid back. read more

I'll give this place a 3.5.. the food was good and over all service wasn't too bad.. But our waitress did forget my friend's extra egg and she forgot to refill my water.. It was the other waitress's that came around filling up waters.. I ordered the Tsukeramen.. which has the broth on the side. It was pretty tasty.. This located in the Trader Joe's Plaza in Tempe . read more

Wasn't sure what to expect - found out about this place via Instagram during a soft opening. But damn, probably best ramen in AZ for now. Apps: - karaage and gyoza are both solid - curry rice bowl: interesting it came with karaage and curry sauce was packed with mushrooms and other veggies. Very hearty but no way I could eat the larger size Ramen (Classic) - Broth: on the lighter side but definitely flavorful. Wasn't unctuous so it wasn't super heavy which was nice - Noodles: good amount of cheese - Toppings: pork was flavorful but fell apart in my chopsticks which I wasn't a fan of. Soft boiled egg was clutch and both spinach and bean sprouts were light and clean. I need to come back to try their tsukemen or crazier options like the truffle. Super excited at how well Silverlake does here. read more

We absolutely loved this place! The inside was super clean and the staff was very nice. The decor is pretty. I like how there's a 360 view of the restaurant no matter where you sit. We ordered the Chicken Karaage, Garlic Truffle Ramen, Classic Ramen, Shrimp Tempura Roll and Gyoza. Everything was so flavorful and delicious. My husband is a huge ramen eater. Me, not so much. However, after tasting this ramen, I see a lot of ramen in my future from here. The broth had so much depth of flavor. With my favorite part being all the added veggies. The portion size was really big and matched the price point perfectly. The chicken was extra crispy and I appreciated that they gave me teriyaki sauce on the side. The sushi was fresh and the gyoza was fried to perfection! We'd definitely be back! read more

My dad lives in LA and always raves about this ramen. Saw there was one here so knew I had to try it. My husband and I both love it. Their meal deals are great. Their pork buns, AMAZING. Their curry, also amazing. Their ramen is good but I think I prefer it from other spots. My husband thinks their ramen is very good though. We have been many times and will continue going. read more

On 1/16 we came here bc we've been multiple times and the food was great. This time they have changed the setup where now you don't order from a server, but order at a kiosk and seat yourself. We were honestly extremely disappointed with the service yesterday. We never received a water refill despite trying to wave the waitress down multiple times. I also never received my meal until I explicitly asked about it, which resulted in all of the servers talking about it, staring at me, pointing, and it was really uncomfortable. Finally after 30 minutes my *appetizer* came out without even an apology or explanation of what happened. I won't be coming here again, even though the food is fantastic, because the service was deeply disappointing. read more

Really good spot for ramen in Tempe!! Broth is tasty, noodles have good bite. A little pricey but worth trying! Had a party of 4 on a Friday night. I would recommend checking the Yelp waitlist to get ahead of the wait. The interior is fun and trendy. Was really impressed by the service in their soft opening phase. All the staff was nice and attentive Everything was really tasty. The chicken karaage was nice and crispy, the sauce on the broccolini was good. I ordered the Garlic Truffle ramen. The noodles were thicker than the other bowls. Everything was really good, but the meat was kinda hard to eat. The broth is a little on the heavier side. There was a slight aftertaste to the broth but nothing that ruined the dish. Visiting from CA and was surprised how pricey this ramen was, but I understand it's a chain/franchise. read more

The ramen is good. It's a small restaurant. The prices are ok and service is ok. They have an app to download and get points.

Surprisingly good ramen in Tempe, and to be honest, there's not a lot of good ramen places in the Valley! This is a new ramen place on Rural and East University, located right next to Matcha Maiko. There's also a Trader Joes and Cane's in the same plaza, so the parking lot can get kind of busy, though you will still be able to find parking. It was pretty easy to get seated at around 12PM on the weekend, and service was friendly. The design of the store is kind of interesting, with Fram oil filter cans used as some of the lampshades, skateboard decks on one wall, a bike on another, etc. Not personally my taste, but I'm not an interior designer by any means! I ordered the tonkotsu classic ramen, which came out in a reasonable amount of time. The broth was creamy and tasty, and the egg yolk was cooked to a nice, jelly-like consistency. The pork belly was a bit too fatty for my tastes, but it was pretty juicy. I had some karaage as well, which tasted ok, but the pieces were very small for the price. I also had a spicy tuna roll, which was kind of disappointing as the fish was room temperature. My overall critique of the menu is that the food is quite pricey for the portion sizes ($17 for a bowl of ramen, $8-12 for small pieces of karaage). Given my experience, I would mainly recommend the ramen, and I would def come back to try the other flavors in the future! read more

I was so excited to go there, I know it is their soft opening and but I just had to try their ramen. I love ramen! We order appetizers: Edamames - Yummy and the Crispy Chicken Karaage - these were good but showed up we were half done with our noodles. All 3 of us got the Garlic Truffle Ramen with different toppings (A blend of creamy pork and vegetable broth, garlic, truffle oil, kale, mushrooms, black pepper, seaweed and seasoned egg. Served with thick noodles.). I got mine with chicken, added corn which came at the end. I had to ask for refills several times. The ramen was ok, but the soup was ok too was not the best. The staff is friendly but a little slow. It is new and shiney, clean and modern place. read more

The best ramen I've ever had, and it's not even a close contest! The chicken karage and the sauce it comes with is a must, super crispy and delicious! Each time I've been it's been super busy, and great to see the place running like a well oiled machine! They know what they are doing, food is amazing, and the place stays very clean. read more

Went with the social media hype and checked them out, didn't meet our expectations! We dined for dinner Friday Night, got seated quickly, went with chicken karage, the crispy tuna, a bowl of classic ramen, and hot sake. It took forever to get our food. We were seated close to the open kitchen. I kept looking and finally a server/manager came over to check. Then she followed up with our server and the kitchen to get the food out! The Karage was okayish. The pieces of the chicken were too big, the crispy tuna was okay too. We have had better! Next the ramen, it was too creamy for our taste, and the noodles were not cooked through. Not the authentic tonkatsu broth. It was too thick! The portion was good enough though. We didn't enjoy our experience in all honesty. They did not charge us for the sake but by then it was too late. May be y'all will have a better experience. Good luck. read more

We loved this place, it was clean and had ample seating for everyone to eat. The service was friendly and attentive. Anytime we needed anything they were quick to bring it to us. We really enjoyed all their food too! Especially their impossible meat katsu, bao. the boa was super soft and the katsu was the best! It was supper crispy too. My partner had the first katsu with impossible katsu, veggie ramen. I added fish cakes and shrimp. We also loved how the iced green tea. It tasted refreshing, roasted and crisp. Would love to come back. read more

Ramen was good but I only got one piece of pork in the ramen. How pathetic and greedy is that.

I absolutely love ramen! I have traveled to a number of big cities in the US and always try ramen in each city. This is one of my top 3 ramen places in the US. The broth is creamy, the pork is tender, and the noodles cooked perfectly. My kids love it too. The whole restaraunt staff is amazing and always ready to get you what ever you need. I eat here just about every week to two weeks and so glad it is in a central location read more

This place was SO crowded! We had to wait about an hour to get in, but it was so worth it. Our waitress helped us choose the most popular dishes and some of her favorites. This ramen broth was so different - it was creamy and thick and had a delicious chili paste that could be added. I absolutely loved the broccolini- I highly recommend trying it. The portions were massive, and I loved the interior style. Clean and modern, with cute LED signs to add a trendy vibe. I will be back!!!! read more

We were in the area and looking for ramen bc of the cool weather. I joined the Yelp wait-list online which was very convenient and made our wait time there a bit shorter. I tried the vegetarian option and with the first bite had instant regret. The flavor profile was really odd and pretty bland. This was disappointing bc of all the great reviews I saw. My husband also didn't care for his ramen. He got it spicy and said it was barely spicy. I added someone chili garlic paste but then that overpowered the taste. I could barely eat 5 bites bc deciding it wasn't even worth eating. read more

After visiting the location in Irvine I was so excited to hear we had one closer to home. Recently my family and I went to the new Tempe location. Overall we all really enjoyed our food. We got a little bit of everything - chicken karaage, spicy garlic edamame, sushi, and several types of ramen. The black truffle ramen was a huge hit with my family. The service was top notch - our drinks never even got to half way empty. My only complaint was that they did not have hot chili oil and the Irvine location does. That is a huge compliment to ramen & I felt it would've been even better if they would've had it. Overall highly recommend this location for some delicious ramen! read more

There is nothing more exciting than a new ramen restaurant opening in the area. The restaurant is located in Tempe, near ASU, in a very busy strip mall. To be honest, the parking is an absolute nightmare. The plaza the restaurant is in is incredibly busy and even though the parking lot is big, you probably won't find anywhere close by and some of the drivers are a little scary. I visited on a weekday night and wow, was it packed. I was lucky to snag an open bar spot as someone was leaving but it would have been a 20 min wait for a party of 2 otherwise. Our waitress was so kind and attentive our entire visit. I got a few things to start- the pork bun, spicy tuna rice, and karaage. The pork bun was pretty good and the distinct onion flavor was nice. The karaage was really well done and the sauce was incredible. I was very disappointed in the spicy tuna. The rice was WAY over cooked, almost like it got burnt. It was so hard. Now for the most important part, the ramen. I got the classsic tonkotsu and my husband got the spicy version. I wanted to try out their chicken as my protein. I have very conflicting feelings about what I tried. While the broth was really delicious, deep and creamy, it didn't seem like anything special. The noodles seemed pretty firm and the chicken was bland. I decided to take my ramen to go and after a night of rest, it was so much better. I LOVED it as left overs. I think I need to go back and try it again. Overall, I'd recommend giving it a try, just be prepared for A LOT of people and difficult parking. read more

Trendy ramen spot in a great area. We went during soft opening and it was so busy, luckily they had a yelp wait list so we weren't waiting for too long. The broccoli appetizer was soooo good, haven't had anything like it. The ramens were so creamy and rich, except the shoyu ramen which was less heavy, they were delicious nevertheless. I believe this is a chain from california. I will 100% be coming back! read more

Just finished a show at ASU Gammage and was craving ramen. Seen this new spot open up recently so we decided to check it out on a Sunday. A bit busy when we checked in but got seated within 10 minutes. Make sure to check in with the host, they'll send you a text when your seat is ready. We got the chicken karaage which was by far the best in the Tempe area. The aioli sauce was just perfect! Even though it's an appetizer, this could be a meal in itself. Big crispy chunks of chicken. Delicious! I got the Blaze ramen with medium hotness. The perfect heat for me! I appreciated the thicccck piece of pork. The broth has a savory, creamy taste. The noodles were perfect! My husband got the truffle ramen which was very generous with the mushrooms. Yum! I'd prefer the Blaze over the truffle though. Staff was great! The atmosphere was clean and inviting. If you have room for dessert, check out the churros! read more

Come here all the time and lately it's been taking longer and longer to get my food! I ordered 20 mins before arriving to get my food and still waited another 20 before getting my food even though the restaurant barely had any customers! Reconsidering if I will come here again. When I finally got my order it was wrong and staff kept arguing about how it was correct even though it states in the receipt substitute for thick noodles. Overall horrible experience. read more

Cool new ramen spot near ASU. It has a corporate feel inside but the ramen was surprisingly delicious. I ordered the classic ramen with pork. The broth was creamy but the the pork was flavourless.

Silverlake Ramen - Classic - Ramen Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

The best tonkotsu ramen I've had so far in the valley. Although it is not Ichiran, the tonkotsu broth is rich, creamy, and not too salty. If you want your tonkotsu spicy, you can order the Blaze instead of the Classic, which allows you to pick the spice level. The chashu is thicker than traditional chashu but it is great and perfectly smoky. We also loved the juicy grilled gyoza - not many places want to pan-fry their gyoza but Silverlake does! The ambiance is modern. Service was excellent despite the fact the they're only in their soft-opening phase. We would definitely return! read more

Personally, I'm not a big fan of this place at all. When we first got there even though half the place was empty. There was an issue with seating. Once we were seated, we were told they were out of numerous things on the menu. OK, things happen. I really wanted to like this place but overall for the price there's a crazy amount of Ramen places not far from here that are much better. Again, this is my own personal opinion and if you're in the area and want to try something new you should. read more

Waited 2 hours for my birthday dinner here after the yelp waitlist said it would be a 45 minute wait. I really wanted to try this place for my birthday so me and my boyfriend decided to wait. When we finally got seated and ordered it took another hour for our food to come out. The ramen itself was a bit pricey but so so delicious! Honestly some of the best ramen I have ever had. Unfortunately though, their wait times are ridiculous and make it not worth it. I won't be back until they make some major changes to the organization of the place. read more

Okayy yall have GOT TO TRY THIS PLACE! After going to a show at Tempe Improv we were so hungry and saw this new ramen place below, and it did not disappoint!! The pictures sold me, I saw crispy rice which is my new thing right now, and bao buns and I was sold. The place is a little small, so you can expect a wait when you come. You can't join the yelp waitlist prior to coming, but when you arrive, you can join the waitlist on a tablet they have there. The wait was fairly quick which was nice, and we started with the Crispy Rice and Pork belly bao buns which were my favorite. We also got a pork ramen which was so delicious and flavorful, and was big enough for 2. I didn't realize this is a big restaurant in other states so I was super excited to try it, and I can't wait to come back for more! read more

I don't normally go out of my way to write reviews on here, but my meal (through Uber Eats) was amazing, and I felt obligated to give credit where credit is due! The Gyoza was scrumptious and the spicy creamy dipping sauce was a nice twist on the standard ponzu style dipping sauce you'd normally expect. I ordered the Blaze Ramen (Extra Spicy...because that was the next step up from medium and it was perfect). The broth was so full of flavor and had a nice creaminess to it, but it was not heavy at all. The standard Pork Chasu portion was ample and cooked perfectly! Noodles were perfect texture and veggies were fresh. I think it only came with 1/2 egg, but honestly, it was plenty! I wouldn't be opposed to ordering an add on next time. It was that good! Great Job Silverlake Ramen! You are my new go to for Ramen! Super Satisfied Customer here! Thank you! read more

Silverlake Ramen just opened their newest location!!! I was happy to hear it. Just in time to collaborate with the famous anime series - Naruto Shippuden. The service was quick seating but it was about a 25 minute wait for our food. The pork bun was freaking gooood and the hand roll hit the spot. Hubby got the classic ramen extra spicy and I got the tonkotsu medium spice. Both were rich in flavor. It was cute how they had the menu decked out with Naruto logo. I'm sure this spot will be a huge hit for all the noodle head lovers read more

Decent ramen- the noodles are good, broth is nice and creamy, but could use a little more flavor. We got the combo ramen with an appetizer, which was $20, the appetizers were just ok.

I found out about this place from a friend of mine and Hubs and I decided to check them out. The wait was crazy long so I would suggest checking the wait list on Yelp to see what their wait times are. I love that they had a wait list that you can join on Yelp because then we were able to just chill in our car until we knew it was time to go for our table. We went on a weekend day. Once we got inside we sat at the bar. I like the ambiance it's modern and sleek nothing too crazy. We decided to get the pot stickers and the chicken karage which were both really good. But that chicken was so crunchy and juicy and well seasoned that I am still thinking about it. My husband and I both got the Tonkatsu Ramen And all I can say is wow. The broth was rich and it had such a nice mouthfeel. It tasted great You didn't need to add anything to the bras. The noodles were nice and tender but still had an al dente feel to them. Everything was balanced in that bowl of soup. My husband and I just kept eating our soup and looking at each other and happiness. We both love Ramen so much. I will be back many times this place is not far from my home. So I will most definitely be back on a regular basis! read more

Overall rating: 4/5 Wait: 3.5/5 Arrival time: Saturday 2:30pm Food: 4/5 Order: classic ramen, spicy tonkotsu ramen, truffle ramen, chicken karage Service: 3.5/5 Price: 3.5/5 Worth it, would come back Silverlake Ramen encapsulates the essence of a bustling, newly opened hotspot where the karage is as memorable as the Arizona sun. Starting with a $16 price tag, their bowls may lean towards the pricier side, but the creamy soup base is a testament to their quality. The classic ramen is a comforting staple, while the spicy tonkotsu offers a fiery twist, and the truffle ramen is an indulgent treat. Despite the occasional service hiccups during peak hours, the experience is worth the wait. It's a place that promises a return trip, not just for the flavors that linger but for the anticipation of what's next on their savory palette. read more
