    This place is packed! So many food options and they're all delicious! Tried different types of noodle, gimbop, and wings, and we were so full afterwards (and satisfied!) interior is very clean and cute. Wish they opened one in my hometown in Maryland LOL

    Interesting concept! It's make-your-own instant Korean ramen, and it's definitely a step up from the grocery store kind. We were greeted as soon as we walked in, which I appreciated. I had no idea what I was doing, and the employees were happy to walk me through the process. Choose your noodles based on spice level then pay at the counter. Choose your toppings ($1 each or $3 for unlimited), then cook your ramen on one of the machines. We were walked through that process, too. Hot water comes out of the machines and the noodles cook quickly. The ramen wasn't as good as the sit-down restaurants I usually like (instant vs. slow cooked), but it was tasty and fun to make. The restaurant was clean and bright, and it was very busy on a Saturday afternoon. The price was right, too, at just over $11, including a chilled bottle of water. The best part was the service! I wouldn't have been able to make it through without two very friendly, helpful employees!

    They use the self help ramen station concept here. There's a wide range of ramen flavors sectioned by spiciness/flavor on the large rack. You choose a bag and they give you a box to dump in your ramen. If you pay ~$9 you get access to their unlimited toppings and bring the topping filled bowl to the self cooking station to finish it off. Large space with limited seating if there's a crowd but standing tables r around too.

    This is where the magic happens! Just press the number written on your bowl and the machine will do the rest.

    This was such a fun experience! You can build your own ramen and there are tons of options to choose from. There is an entire wall of different ramen packets arranged by spice level or dietary restriction. You can choose to keep it simple, but I think it's way more worth it to get the unlimited toppings. Just be careful not to overfill your bowl! There were also a ton of korean drinks to choose from in addition to the usual sodas. The staff were very friendly and someone made sure to ask if we needed any guidance with choosing our ramen even though it was super busy. There are a few standing tables and a few regular tables inside. There is plenty of outdoor seating. I love trying new things, there are so many different ramen to choose from the combinations available are more than I care to count. I will definitely be back to sample more of the menu!

    Novelty place for ramen. First of it's kind in the RTP area. Only been open for two months at the time of writing. Hard to score food since it's making ramen and then adding your own toppings. Off the beaten path experience that is fun for those that are looking to have a K-pop like experience.

    Making the ramen, with toppings.

    Such a good experience. Team was very knowledgeable and welcoming. Made sure we knew what we were doing. Our food was delicious. The best instant noodles I've ever had. Topping choices were fun and good. The space was clean, it's small but we had so much fun interacting even with the other guests. We talked about which ramens we chose. Had fun conversations. The gimbab was so good, I got one to bring home.

    the lady who served us was so nice and welcoming and it felt so genuine (as opposed to just being "customer service nice").

    Best ramen in the area…read more We are from Southern California and we finally found a quality tonkatsu. This pork broth is one of the longer broths to make and you can tell they did it right. Great service, quick and happy to serve! They do not skimp on amount of food either. The price you pay here is great compared to west coast. Lots of thick pork, charred, and lots of noodles and toppings. High quality blended chili oil was also a surprise. We'll be back! I ordered Spicy #2 but I think a great order is to try the tonkatsu regular and the spicy #3, order the side of chili oil! Thanks team! Very good job

    My daughter and I were in the area later in the day after a goalkeeper camp she was at. When…read moreprompted for what she wanted she picked ramen, and this was the nearest place still open after 8pm I could find. Nice little shop, fun artwork on the walls themed to the store, simple counter order and they bring it out when ready. Unfortunately for me, they had a lot of options I wanted to try, we ended up with the edamame, some pork belly cheese fries, and since it was warmer we went with rice options instead of ramen. I got the tonkatsu rice bowl and she got the Japanese curry rice bowl. Between the appetizer and the meal we were both unable to finish and I enjoyed it the next day as a left over. They have a great self service option for take away containers which I appreciated, except my skills of 'dumping from bowl into container' were less than stellar. While we probably won't be back often as they're a 45m drive from our normal haunts for a 'whats open after 8pm on a Friday' they were a welcomely pleasant surprise and quite good.

    The facility this restaurant is open used to have my favorite Middle Eastern restaurant prior to…read morecovid that was closed during 2021 and since then I did not enter the shopping complex because I was so sad to saw that place close. This week my teen reminded me that a new Ramen place has opened in the same facility so I decided to give it a try. The ambience is cozy, though I found that tables are very close to each other, so it is very hard to keep a conversation going without you either disturbing the other table or worrying about having someone else listen to your conversation menu is fine. I did not care for sushi because I was there for Ramen. Besides, they have a vegetarian Ramen is what I was looking for, my daughter ordered a teriyaki Ramen. My vegetarian Ramen had a lot of tempura in it, which defeated the purpose a little bit for me because it was a little oily. The taste was more or less like a red curry and there was very less vegetables mostly it was sweet corn and one or two bok choy on the other hand my teen, who is very hard to please loved the teriyaki Raman and is already planning to go back this weekend to try the other ones , all in all I gave this place a four star because the umami of the Ramen was very comforting, even though I did not like the taste much

    Delicious!! This was…read moremy first time having ramen, and my friend suggested we go here, and I'm so glad we did! Noodle Blvd is located in a spot that you could easily miss, but it's easy to get back on track. I pulled into the gas station parking lot beside the restaurant, then just turned right into the restaurant parking lot. The parking lot is fairly small, so be warned about that. My friend was there when I arrived, and he sat at the bar. When I walked in the door, I was greeted with smiles and waves. It was very inviting, which is fitting for a ramen restaurant. My friend ordered us Lychee Margaritas, and oh my goodness, it was so good! We decided to visit right at opening on a Saturday, so the bartender was still preparing some of the ingredients needed for the margarita. The bartender informed us that it's usually better once a key ingredient sits for a while, but I loved the drink regardless. I ordered edamame for an appetizer, which came quickly and was good! Since I've never had ramen before, I asked our server what he recommended, and he told me about some of their most popular dishes. He told me the N9. Chicken Curry Ramen was a favorite of his and the patrons, so I decided to order that. It came quickly, and I was immediately in HEAVEN upon my first bite. I loved every bite after! I decided to play it safe with the spice and got level 2, but I can definitely go up a level or 2 since I love spicy. Highly recommend, and I will be back! Worth the drive from Clayton, where I live.

    The service was good, waitress was pleasant, no issues there…read more A busy weekday night, a loud group at the big table in the middle didn't bother me as I was at the bar. The short rib ramen was good, but the noodles were short, like they were cut or made short on purpose. The shrimp shumai was disappointing. Small bite sized portions, but they were soft. After cutting into one, I found out that they use rice as a filler with a bit of shrimp. I've never seen rice used in shumai, unless it's Shanghai sticky rice shumai. Also got a unagi don togo, it was good, just a bit small on the portion of eel, but it's hard to mess up an unagi don.
