The Yummiest Ramen in Austin

Sazan Ramen

★★★★☆ 4.4 (526) • $$

"I love Sazan ramen, probably my favorite in all of Austin. It's nestled in the ever-growing 99 Ranch plaza. I like how the menu is smaller and not intimidating, they have a good selection of cocktails, and service is always good. Everything I've tried has been good, tasty and fresh. The setting is more on the intimate side which is nice for a date night if you don't want bright lights and boring tables/chairs."

Marufuku Ramen

★★★★☆ 4.4 (437) • $$

"Wow. Husband and I tried this place on a whim when we wanted to try something new and was in the area. Got there around 6ish, small 10 min wait. When we left? Like an hour wait. Glad we got there early!I'm a vegetarian, and they only have one vegetarian option but holy MOLY is it delicious. Fried tofu, egg, spinach, onions, peppers, and spinach noodles. It was SO good. Got it with a side of edamame and a hot chocolate (cuz it was cold outside). Everything was delicious! Husband got their most popular ramen. I can't remember the name but it's the first ramen listed in the menu. I can see why this place is so popular. Can definitely see myself returning!"

Fat Dragon

★★★★☆ 3.7 (454) • $$

"The BEST Chinese food in Austin! I've tried 100 of places in Texas, and the Chinese food has always been abysmal. This place is hands-down, the best. Before ordering, I looked at the yelp pictures and once I noticed the authentic homemade dumplings, I already know it was gonna be good and the food was Outstanding!"

EurAsia Ramen

★★★★☆ 4.1 (367) • $$

"I've only ordered the Tontkusu here but it never disappoints, very thick and consistent! I order also the small ramen bowl for my kid and she everytime, she dances coz it is so good!Support this business, they are super quick and kind and their food is just so good."

Bluefin Sushi Bar & Ramen

★★★★☆ 4.3 (302) • $$

"I'M A FOODIE PEEPS!!! And I travel the world. I have to say......I was impressed with the quality, portion size and presentation of the food at this sushi place. I live relatively close to Sunset Valley and I love going shopping in this area. So when my son said that he wanted sushi...I said "Let's try somewhere new!!!" Normally I don't. But I'm really glad that we did!!! The restaurant was quaint, had a lot of parking and we had the sweetest waitress....Miss. Vonie......then the food was great too. We eat sushi at least twice a week.....And this hands down NOW IS OUR NEW, FAVORITE SPOT, IN THE AREA!!! Reasonably priced and the waitress let us know, that if we go there between 1-3pm, then they have major specials. 2 rolls for $15.....3 for something etc. All I know is I was impressed. WE'LL SO BE BACK. So get ready to meet out whole clan Bluefin!!! See you again soon."

Kanji Ramen

★★★★☆ 4 (344) • $$

"A group of friends and I decided to meet here for lunch. This is a small little ramen shop located inside a plaza area with plenty of parking.The food was perfect and portions were generous. Lots of items on the menu looked great, from several different types of ramen, starters and small dishes, as well as sushi rolls. I got the Little Kanji since I knew that ramen is pretty filling. The kid's ramen included pork bone soup with soy sauce based seasoning chashu, wood ear mushroom, ajitama egg corn, nori. It was delicious!They are closed on Mondays and hours are 11am to 8pm Tuesday-Sunday."

TORO-Ramen & Poke Barn

★★★★☆ 4.1 (317) • $$

"Great Raman and close to me!!! That means I can come back more often!! Great service too. We had the beef dumplings for an appetizer and they were great too."

EurAsia

★★★★★ 4.5 (170) • $$

"Eurasia has slowly morphed into our go-to ramen spot. Partially for the ample parking, partially because there's never a line, but mostly because the menu continues to evolve in interesting ways.For example, they recently introduced "reaper ramen." The important thing to understand about the entire menu is that the heat scale they provide is...well, unreliable. My wife caught a wild hair and decided to order the reaper ramen last weekend. I was expecting her to completely implode, but despite the name, it was the least spicy ramen we've tried here! The spicy chicken, tan-tan and miso-hot have all been significantly hotter. Maybe that's a sign from the universe to branch out and try something new today. Maybe it's our inability to decode the spicy glyphs on the menu. Or maybe it's a testament to Eurasia constantly upping their game. Ya'll keep pumping out the hits, and we'll keep returning!"

Ramen512

★★★★☆ 4.1 (154) • $$

"Been dining here for several years, finally coming around to posting a review!The only ramen in the Austin area I can eat! I find that ramen broth can be pretty salty and that's the case with most ramen shops in Austin and I gave up on ramen in Austin until ramen512 came around. Chef Vinh is very passionate about his ramen craft and it shows through his food. Now even making his own noodles in house!! The broth is very flavorful and rich. Very crispy karaage! Located right next to Randall's. Plenty of parking.The dining space is small so be ready for a wait if you have a large party or come during peak hours."

Bluefin Sushi & Ramen - Lakeway

★★★★☆ 4.3 (136) • $$

"Blue Fin really gets into the spooky Halloween spirit! So much fun. And always a great time! Sushi served with love!"

Don Don Express

★★★★☆ 4.1 (148) • $

"The best tofu ever. It was so well done. Very flavorful and made to order. We ordered the sesame sweet and sour tofu bowl. We will be coming here again. The fried rice was so good as well. We were so excited to eat we forgot to take pictures."

Michi Ramen

★★★★☆ 4 (136) • $$

"BEST ramen we've ever had!! We found Michi by happenstance and I'm so glad we did! We couldn't decide what we wanted for dinner and prior to this we considered going out. Honey, please the best out is in my bed or in another country haha! Anywho, Michi was and is the truth! This market is a grocery store/restaurant and they know what they are doing. We placed the order online and it was a simple process. Other places we discovered made it hard to customize our orders. We had one with chicken and a few additional/subs and a veggie option. The ramen was flavorful, hot, and steamy. I've been thinking about this ramen since we left and I cannot WAIT to return! The service was lovely. They were out of the free ice cream though which was a bummer so maybe next time. The environment was that of a grocer which worked for us. I will be returning and if I could give them 10 stars I would. Enjoy!"

Bluefin Sushi & Ramen - Round Rock

★★★★☆ 4 (119) • $$

"The food was good, but I'm inexperienced in figuring out what's better and "not" better. I ordered what I thought was a cold dish, and was quite surprised to get warm with the first bite. It was good though. I recommend you ask more questions than I did if you're as inexperienced as I. The only thing I have a minor issue with is that they don't take cash."

Otsu Asian Bistro & Sushi Bar

★★★★☆ 4.1 (90) • $$

"This is the 3rd sushi place that I try in San Marcos and it's hands down the best one so far. Incredible value for the quality of food. FOOD: Pretty much everything I ate was awesome. The sushi platter (5/5) was a great deal at $26 and the nigiri was delicious and fresh. The cucumber rolls were incredible. My only complain with this dish would be that the California roll was a bit skimpy on the crab meat. Also ordered the Brooklyn roll (5/5) which was also amazing. The white tuna on top was seared and inside there was crawfish meat... the whole roll was just so tasty. Also tried the Arctic roll (4/5) which was interesting. Like a Philly but with sweet chili sauce on top. Also tried the Cowboy roll (5/5) which was also a great choice. Even their egg drop soup (4/5) was good!SERVICE: Waiter was great and had many recommendations for the sushi rolls. LOCATION: In a bit of an isolated area but great parking all around. NOTEWORTHY: Definitely a place that I intend to go back to. Sushi seemed authentic, many creative rolls, and everyone in my party was happy with their food (ramen and udon). Better than Hokkaido across the street in my opinion!"

Hokkaido Ramen and Sushi Bar

★★★★☆ 4.3 (66) • $$

"My spouse decided that we would do Hokkaido this evening, and I am glad she did. We got the Jalapeño poppers, the gyoza, the seaweed salad, and the Tonkotsu Shoyu.The poppers are great the great because in addition to the normal cream cheese and jalapeño, there was the faux crab, and and a lovely breading. *So* good! The gyoza is far superior to any gyoza I've had in a buffet: it had just the right amount of browning around the edges. The seaweed salad was tasty and filling. But the star of the show was the Tonkotsu Shoyu. Smooth, tasty broth, delicious pork, and bamboo shoots and the ramen. The bamboo shoots really absorbed the umami of the broth, as did the noodles. And the soft-boiled egg went perfectly with it. Seriously good stuff. Honestly, for Japanese food you can't go wrong with Hokkaido."

A Go Go Sushi and Ramen

★★★★★ 4.6 (33)

"A little hesitant because there were no other patrons and the waitstaff didn't understand/speak much English, but let me tell you, they couldn't have been more nicer. With language barrier, I used the Notepad app on my phone to type out the number/order and she was so appreciative. We are truly the appreciative ones, though! The sushi was fresh, amazing, and this is now my favorite spot for sushi in this area. I tried a few other high star places and wasn't impressed with taste or quality, but A Go Go is special"

Bluefin Sushi & Ramen

★★★★☆ 3.7 (50)

"The food tasted old and smelledTo fishy for a beef bowl. After eating it today I was literally running to the restroom.Won't be giving this a second shot."

Fujiya Ramen Sushi Bar

★★★★☆ 4.4 (25)

"We stopped for our first time today, but it won't be our last. The Silky Pork Broth Ramen is off the charts flavorful! We could have easily split the ramen. Plus with appetizers it was way more than we could eat. Hubby ordered the BBQ Chicken and the Shaggy Dog Sushi roll. He loved the sushi roll. The chicken had a great flavor, just a touch chewy. He would get both again. I ordered the Tempura Veggies and they were great. They renovated the restaurant very nicely. You order from your table. Service was good. Items were brought to the table out of order but it didn't matter. They all were piping hot , just how I like it."

Matsuba Japanese Ramen

★★★★★ 4.7 (14)

"I almost never get chicken broth ramen but since that pretty much all they had I have to a try. It was so delicious! I had the black garlic ramen and it was so rich and flavorful. I will be back for sure!"

Kikko Ramen & Poke

★★★★☆ 4.1 (15)

"Food was delicious close to home.I'm coming back. I ordered the wontam ramen and my husband got the beef ramen."

Ichi-Umi Sushi & Ramen

★★★★☆ 4.2 • $$

"I'll be honest and say that when I heard good ramen in Austin? I was definitely incredulous, but my buddy said he liked it and it was good. The endorsement still made me skeptical but with beggars not being choosers and everything I went in. It was a Friday night and it was dark with a lot of chochin hanging, trying to go for the Izakaya feel. They actually did have yakitori as a menu item and chicken hearts was one of the items available! Awesome! It definitely bumped up the authenticity of the place. You could tell the hearts were frozen, but honestly it has been hard to find them anywhere stateside so it was a minor gripe. For the main, I ended up getting the Tonkatsu Original, Extra Spicy with an egg. The broth didn't have as much depth as I would have liked but still not bad. I was lowkey impressed with their ramen and again the chicken hearts gets extra respect from me."
