Good Ramen and service! Highly recommended I order pretty often and is always good! Best in lake nona area

Came here during lunch with my husband. They had a lunch special going on - we ordered the Shio and their specialty Soy Milk Tonkotsu. The Shio had a smokey taste to it and had that proper mouth feel. The egg was a bit lackluster to what I'm used to - it's served marinated whole. Between the two I preferred the Soy Milk Tonkotsu - it tasted light yet hearty. Our server was very attentive and chill which matched the vibe of the establishment. I'd visit again to try their other ramens - it's a good place for simple to-the-point ramen. read more

I've walked past this place countless times and never thought about stopping in. It's just two doors away from a constantly crowded Publix, so it's easy to overlook. But when our neighbors invited us to join them for dinner after our kids' playdate, I was happy to keep the evening going. The moment we walked in, I was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is small but very clean and thoughtfully decorated, with clear attention to detail that made the space feel warm and inviting. The waitstaff was attentive throughout our meal, staying close by and making sure every table's needs were met. We ordered ramen, a beef bowl, gyoza, along with some of their teas and fresh lemonade. I waited until everyone at the table had their food before tasting anything, but it didn't take long. As I sat there, the incredible aromas from our dishes filled the air. The first bite of the beef bowl immediately told me there was a skilled chef in the kitchen. Everyone at the table grew quiet as we tasted our food--it was so good that conversation paused while we simply savored every bite. The quality was outstanding, and the presentation was beautiful. I can easily see this becoming a busy spot in the evenings and on weekends, once more people discover the amazing meals they serve here. It's now a new favorite for me. Between the great service, exceptional food quality, and thoughtful presentation, I'll definitely be coming back soon read more

Great spot for lunch or dinner. The restaurant is very well maintained, the server was really nice, and the food was great. We ordered the soy milk broth ramen and spicy Korean ramen along with tempura purple potatoes and edamame. The flavors were nice and not overpowering or too salty. The ramens were served hot and not lukewarm which was nice. The appetizers were just the right portions and the prices were affordable. The real surprise is in every bowl. When you finish your ramen and broth, there is a free giveaway written on the bottom! You gotta finish your broth but it's worth it. I won a free beer and my fiancee won a free chicken karaage for next time we come in! If you haven't tried this place already and looking for a decent lunch spot, go there now! read more

Very good ramen! Service is quick! The store is small inside but very clean. The ramen has a lot of flavor you get a lot. Monday's bowls of Ramen are $12.95. Tuesdays kids eat free, Wednesdays they have $5 Japanese fried chicken. Located next to Publix. Come show this business some love! read more

The best ramen you can find in Orlando cheap and sometimes at the bottom of the bowl is free food for next time. The employees are really nice and it's definitely kid friendly and the kids bowls come with a free toy. read more

This is our new favorite Japanese spot! We recently went to Japan and have been trying to find a good ramen and curry spot and I think we found it! The staff is so friendly and the food was fantastic. It's a cute little restaurant which is just like Japan culture. We will definitely be making the 30 min drive frequently to get our Japanese fix! Highly recommend the spicy ramen and chicken katsu curry. They have just the right amount of spice. read more

Everything was excellent!!! Best Tonkotsu Ramen, Katsu Curry Rice, Karaage, and Purple Potato Tempura ever!!! Thank you!!

One of the best ramen places around Lake Nona, if not the best. They have a great ambience and strategy of having you finish your bowl to win a price: free drink, free or discounted food item. My daughter LOVES it and always begs to come back. All of their Ramen have been delicious, specially love their Miso and Spicy ramen. Service is friendly and attentive. read more

My husband and I have to been to Wa Ramen a few times now and have loved it every time! The food is amazing. We always get the ramen and the portion size is pretty big but if you finish it then you get a coupon. We've gotten a coupon for free appetizers, dessert, drinks, and things like buy one get one ramen and 30% ramen. There isn't a ton of seating but we've never had to wait to be seated. The servers are super friendly and do a great job of attending to your table. They play lo-fi music which is a fun vibe! We will definitely keep coming back! read more

We've been wanting to try out Wa Ramen since we moved to the area. I love the coziness of the restaurant it definitely reminds me of mom and pop ramen shops in Japan. The karage was super authentic and crispy. I loved that the edamame was served in a basket. So many little touches made me feel like I was back in Japan. I had the gyudon and it was perfect. The rice was spectacular not mushy or undercooked. The pickled ginger is my favorite part, how it marries the onions, beef, and rice. Giving the dish color and flavor. My husband's ramen was tender and delicious. Many reviewers have noted their noodles were undercooked, you don't want a mushy noodle. My husband couldn't finish his bowl. We did have karage and edamame, but I even tried to help him and I was full too. If you live in Lake Nona or Moss Park definitely add this to your list! read more

Love their ramen and service. Have tried almost every bowl. It feels very authentic here. The ambiance is nice and casual. I've been a few times with my husband lately since Orlando had been getting a few cold fronts here and there. We don't eat out much anymore and have become quite critical of restaurant because we eat very good at home. But this was a pleasant encounter as we did not plan to come here. We simply stopped by one night after a long errand run and decided we would keep coming back for the ramen. read more

The interior is cute and reminded of places I have been to in LA. The walls are lined with pics of customers and the cute ramen bowl pillow named Raymond. There is a standard menu and then a smaller menu that changes every two weeks. We had chicken karaage, soy milk tonkatsu, and niku don. The karate was tasty and the ramen broth was good. The noodles were not a perfect texture but it was decent. The waitress was awesome and she mad the experience great. I would go again for sure. read more

We were welcomed and seated immediately at opening. It was our first time, so we browsed the menu and wanted everything. It was the restaurants anniversary, so they had a fun deal going on. Order a ramen and choose your pricing and if you finish your ramen you get a coupon! To start, we had a delicious bao. It came piping hot and refreshing with a squirt of lemon. The wings we got came with this super sticky sauce. The wings were perfectly crispy and burn your mouth hot as well. I decided on the spicy ramen, which made slurping down the broth a tough task. Once I finished, the bowl notified the owner that I won a 30% off our next trip! That second trip came the second day. I really wanted to try their chicken karaage. I didn't need the sauce or lemon. That chicken was juicy and just like the other sides from the other day, burn your mouth hot. This time I got a Shio Ramen. Light clear broth with the same noodles as the spicy ramen. This time I easily got to the bottom and won a 50% off coupon! Wa Ramen easily fills up, so come early and have a great meal. read more

I went during their promotion and was surprised I've never heard about this place! It's a really nice restaurant that is a bit small, but it adds to the coziness of it all. There's a fun coupon you can get at the bottom of every bowl which encouraged me to drink my broth (I usually don't)! The staff were also so nice to talk to! I've gone twice and plan to come back in the future! read more

Cute place which focuses on Ramen which is always a good thing. Service was a bit slow and it took about 25 minutes before we got out warm not hot broth and Ramen. Careful if you want hot sauce on the side it's an extra 2.00. The noodles were a bit under cooked but itv was ok. Brother was warm but had an ok flavor for the spicy Ramen Was an ok experience read more

Wa Ramen has been on my go to list since I've heard of it! Upon entering, the restaurant is definitely smaller than I anticipated, but we got there at dinner open time at 5 pm. We all ordered the same thing, Thai ice tea and Spicy ramen. Ramen came out pretty quick and let me tell you the spicy ramen broth is definitely a 5! The server forgot or didn't put in our Thai ice tea so about midway through our meals she put them in after we inquired about them. Also midway through my meal I bit into a massive chunk of dirt in my bok choy. I was definitely not finishing the "ramen challenge" after that. The soft boiled egg was basically an under-seasoned hard boiled egg.. I couldn't pallet the chili strings because it felt like I was eating hair. I wanted to love Wa Ramen, but I was a bit let down. read more

Really cute small ramen shop. In a plaza. There were only two workers working front of the house but the service was good. My only drawback was that the food didn't come all at once, not a dealbreaker. They have a small menu, but everything was really good. I will probably be the first to say it's not the "best" ramen I've had, but it hits the spot. And there's "prizes" at the bottom of bowls. They also have a really nice happy hour between 5:00-6:30 for $10 bowls of ramen. Which is a solid deal. Would come back to this place. Service was great. read more

Loved this place! It's a super small spot so be prepared to wait or get there early. The day we went was apparently their anniversary and the server explained that we could name any price for our ramen as their anniversary celebration. My husband and I were so shocked by this that we ended up just paying the same price as listed on the menu!!! I know that's crazy to say but we love supporting small businesses so it felt right in our hearts!!! The server was SUPER nice and energetic! He alone made me want to come back again just because of how well he treated us. Food was delicious! Any of the spicy ramen is a good way to go. Apps were also tasty! I 1000000% recommend this place if you're in the area. read more

Yay! I finally made it over to Lake Nona to try out WA Ramen. I've been to their sushi place in Casselberry a handful of times so I was excited when they opened a ramen shop. Let me first start by saying our host/waiter was one of the friendliest host/waiter I have ever encountered. He has some of the best table serving etiquette I have ever encountered. We order the chicken kaarage and cod off the starter menu and I had the Spicy Seafood Ramen. All were really good. The spice level could have been a little spicier to my liking. If you finish your ramen bowl with the soup you get a prize and a polaroid to celebrate. They also have a rotating ramen menu every two weeks along with their standard menu. This week's was oxtail ramen. read more

Was pleasantly surprised with my ramen here! I ordered spicy ramen which came with a well marinated soft boiled egg and a large chunk of pork. I prefer the marinated slices of chashu but this one was just a tender chunk of pork-- still tasty! The broth was also rich and flavorful, and just about thick enough to hold on to the chewy noodles. I thought the origami on the walls gave a cozy feel and the staff was friendly. Cute place if you're in the area but not amazing enough to drive back out to lake Nona! read more

After trying Ramen, I never knew it was different from pho! I was pleasantly greeted upon arrival and he was extremely nice and very helpful in making my menu choices. I had the spicy Ramen it had great flavor and texture. I also tried the Thai milk tea for the first time the flavors were very very prominent. It was unique and I was glad to try it out. I probably wouldn't make it at home. The location is pretty far out, but it is very clean inside and a nice amount of seating. I can tell the food was freshly made in addition to the Thai milk tea. One fun fact is if you finish your bowl, you will get a surprise coupon on your next visit, which will be revealed when you finish your bowl and I finally did 20 minutes later but cool concept I would return. read more

Very cute ramen shop serving up delicious and flavorful ramen and appetizers. Service was great and everything came out hot and fresh. For appetizers we ordered the Beef Bulgogi Bao and Chicken Karaage. The Beef Bulgogi Bao was really good! The bulgogi was flavorful and the Bao bun was soft and warm. The Beef Bulgogi Bao is on their special menu so it may not be available but if they have a specialty Bao on their menu I highly recommend trying it! The Chicken Karaage is a must order! The chicken is perfectly crispy and the meat inside was so moist and very tender. For ramen we ordered a bowl off their special menu and their spicy ramen. Both were light but still flavorful and packed with ingredients so it was very filling. The spicy ramen gives the perfect amount of heat so it was still enjoyable. Right now they have two events happening until the end of April, The Name Your Price Ramen Bowl and Surprise in Every Bowl. With the Name Your Price Ramen Bowl you do exactly that, name your price! You tell them how much you want to pay and that's what they will charge. The Surprise in Every Bowl has a surprise at the bottom of the bowl that is revealed to you when you finish everything in your bowl. You are able to redeem the surprise during your next dine-in visit. This is a ramen spot I will definitely visit again anytime I have a craving or ramen. read more

Family Favorite, but Not My Personal Taste Wa Ramen gets 4 stars mostly because my husband and son really enjoyed it. My son had the spicy ramen--he liked it, but to me it was an odd mix of spicy and sweet, which I didn't care for at all. I ordered the fried rice, and while it tasted good, the portion was tiny--definitely not enough for a full meal. We also got the pan-fried gyoza. It wasn't authentic, but it had a unique flavor that was just okay. One cool touch: every ramen bowl comes with a special discount hidden at the bottom--but you only find out what it is after finishing your soup. It's a fun idea, and the discount is for your next visit. The staff was friendly and the vibe was casual. Not my favorite ramen spot, but it's a win for my family--so I'd come back with them. read more

Wa Ramen is such a great addition in Lake Nona! We went for dinner tonight for my husband's birthday dinner and it was the perfect meal. Wa Ramen had a good looking drink menu and they offer a wide variety of drinks, but we both got the Peach Oolong Tea which was really good!! For an appetizer I got the J.B. Bao that was on the specialty menu. It was SO good. It was so unique and I loved the flavors. It had smoked salmon and cream cheese on it and it all worked together perfectly. Our sweet waitress let us know that they update the specialty menu every two weeks. For our meals my husband got the Spicy Ramen and I picked the Gyu-don, which is Sukiyaki beef and onion over rice, served with ajitama egg, red ginger, and scallions. We both LOVED our choices. There were so many good looking things on the menu and we can't wait to come back and try more. read more

I left this place still hungry. I got the tempura udon soup. My husband got the spicy ramen and subbed chicken. It's good to know you can sub the pork from the ramen options as all of them are listed with pork. Both our soups were flavorful however they lacked on the amount of toppings. My udon soup only came with two shrimp tempura and that was all in terms of protein. Service was quick and friendly. The place itself is simple and cute. Good neighborhood ramen spot. read more

3.5/5 stars This was such a cute little ramen shop. I loved the paper lantern lights, and the origami butterflies on the walls. The service here was top notch! The staff was so friendly, welcoming, and cheerful. The food came out quickly as well. They're celebrating their 1 year anniversary right now, so for this entire month, you get to decide how much you want to pay for the ramen! Also, if you finish your entire bowl of ramen, you get a coupon towards your next visit. We ordered: - Chicken karaage | Japanese fried chicken - Gyoza (pan fried) | Pork and vegetable dumplings - Takoyaki | Mayo, okonomi sauce, nori flakes, itogaki - Soy milk tonkotsu ramen w/ house made chili paste add-on | Pork chashu, ajitama egg, bamboo shoots, bok choy, bean sprout, scallions, soy milk - Spicy ramen | Pork chashu, ajitama egg, bamboo shoots, bok choy, bean sprout, itokiri togarashi, scallions, rayu For the appetizers, everything was pretty standard. Nothing too special. I also wish the takoyaki was crispy. For the ramen, I enjoyed the broth for the soy milk tonkotsu ramen. It was flavorful and creamy, and it was perfect once I added the house made chili paste to it. They also do not skimp on the toppings here, which I appreciate! The pork chashu was huge. However I didn't love it, since I prefer it to be fattier. The egg was also a bit overcooked. For the spicy ramen, the broth had a good spice level, but it was a little too sweet which I didn't like. Overall, I probably would've given this place 3/5 stars, but service was so good I bumped it up. read more

The best Ramen and curry dish in Orlando! Always consistent food and a staple in our household

We checked out Wa Ramen right after they added a new lunch menu! You can select from 4 classic ramen bowls and 4 small appetizers for a reduced cost during the lunch hour. They have drink specials as well on their Thai milk tea and peach oolong tea, which I want to try next time! I went with the Miso Ramen just as it comes and selected the edamame as my appetizer. The miso broth was super light and had a nice flavor. The pork was so tender and delicious. I'm also a big fan of the ajitama egg and I may add an extra next time. I also tried a crispy gyoza and some of the sweet potato tempura and they were both super yummy! We were the only customers who ate-in during the lunch hour, but the inside is adorable with paper birds/butterflies/cranes flying up the walls and even the AC unit. Our server was super smiley and friendly! He explained the new lunch menu and later helped us take a picture together as a work team. We loved Wa Ramen! read more

Its a cute restaurant with cute decorations. I really like the butterly origami decor on the wall. Me and my kids with some other mom friends and their kids came here. Theirs 3 adults and 4 kids and the waiter was so nice to accomodate all our needs because it can get so hectic eating with the kids. For appetizer I ordered the gyoza, it was good and nice food presentation. For main dish I ordered the spicy ramen for myself, its not that spicy. I'll say 5 out of 10 and the broth was so flavorful. I think going back I'll order the same ramen again. For my kids I got the soy milk tonkutso ramen and honestly it was not my favorite. The soup was a bit tasteless for me. My kids was alright about it and we just take the rest to go. Overall it was good and theirs still a lot of room for improvement. I will go back again one day. read more

The staff was amazing and really had the most upbeat demeanor. The ambiance was nice and pleasant while everything was clean and tidy. I didn't take a pick but the Chicken Karaage was actually the Bert thing I had. Squeeze of lemon and the Mayo sauce (kewpie) made the dish. The ramen was shoyuramwn was good but the pork was more along the lines of a Cuban pork, which was still good but just different. The hiyashi chuka was perfect for a cold ramen dish but the chicken seemed very pedestrian and almost like it was bought and placed into the dish. Still good but not what I expected. Overall the restaurant is clean and has good food. read more

This ramen spot was highly recommended by some of my friends so I had to check it out. I was not disappointed, this restaurant has some of the best noodles in Orlando. I ordered from their rotating menu and I would highly suggest doing so as well. At the time I'm making this post, there is currently a promotion going on in which if you finish your bowl of ramen, you get a prize for the next time you come. The service was also great, the server was knowledgeable of their menu and we were able to get our food at a timely manner. They have a really cosy interior with a good amount of seating, I came with a group of 7 and they were able to accommodate. The walls were also filled with pictures of customers that have completed their bowls of ramen during their promotion. Highly recommend this spot! read more
