How has it taken me this long to try ramen tatsuya?! We visited on a weeknight and it was fairly busy. We were able to walk right up to the counter and order and they gave us a table number. The food came out in good time. The broth was so tasty! It was rich, but not too rich where it would be overwhelming. The ingredients seems fresh and I devoured it. I recommend the mi-so-not as pictured here. We also ordered the hot sake, which is served in an individual sized carafe.

Ramen Tatsu-Ya is everything I hoped it would be--and more! This was one of the first places recommended to me when I moved to Austin, but somehow it took me four years to finally try it. Let me just say, it was absolutely worth the wait.I ordered the Miso Not because I was worried the Mi-So-Hot might be too spicy for me. However, we got the Hot Bomb on the side, which turned out to be the perfect solution--it added just the right amount of heat, and splitting it with someone made it easy to customize the spice level without going overboard. I also added a Corn Bomb, and it was such a good decision! The creamy sweetness it brought to the broth balanced everything out beautifully.The ramen itself was incredible. The broth was rich and flavorful, the noodles were cooked perfectly, and the toppings were fresh and high-quality. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the ability to tweak the spice and creaminess with the bombs made it even better.I can see why this spot is so highly recommended--it truly lives up to the hype. Whether you're a long-time ramen fan or just looking for a comforting meal, this place does not disappoint. I'll definitely be back, and I'm already planning what to try next!

Service & staff - 5 stars!! Ambiance - 5 stars Drinks - 5 stars Ramen - 3 stars for mine & 4 stars for my boyfriend'sI had the Guava Margarita (sake marg) and it was deliciousssss. Very refreshing! I also had the Miso-Not Ramen and the broth was really smoky which was different! I initially liked how unique it was but after the first few bites, I didn't like it anymore. Just too much for me personally. And I didn't like the texture of the noodles. I had previously saw someone leave a comment that they had gluten free noodles but come to find out, they no longer carry them. (FYI - can sub noodles for rice) My boyfriend got the OG Ramen with the fire bomb and loved it - however, he also didn't like the texture of the noodles.

Excellent quick service ramen chain. The broth is super flavorful and the toppings are good quality. The spicy bomb was not too spicy and a lovely addition to any of the ramen. We tried the croquet and the beef slider and they were very flavorful and oily and everything you want in a quick street food-style snack. I could eat the ajitama eggs with every meal.

Ramen Tatsu-Ya is hands down one of the best ramen spots we've been to, and it never disappoints. My wife and I have dined here several times, and the experience is consistently excellent. On our most recent visit, my wife ordered the Mi-So-Hot ramen, while I opted for the Sho-Yu with extra Chashu pork. Both bowls were incredibly flavorful, with rich, perfectly balanced broths and noodles cooked just right. The extra Chashu pork added a tender, smoky depth that elevated my dish even further.The service was quick, and the staff were welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. Despite how busy the place often is, the quality and taste of the ramen are always spot on. We both finished our bowls without leaving a drop--testament to just how good the food is.Ramen Tatsu-Ya's consistency and commitment to flavor keep us coming back time and again. Whether you're a ramen enthusiast or just looking for a satisfying meal, this place should be at the top of your list. Excellent food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere make it a must-visit for any ramen lover. Highly recommended!

Stopped here while on my way to work. They have a pretty heart menu! I ordered their Curry Ramen which was very very tasty. Traditional Japanese curry flavoring, spices with black pepper! I like the texture of the tofu! The staff was extremely kind and helpful when I was making my menu choices! Loved the mural along the wall and the light fixtures! You could see Godzilla, rock bands ect. The music was fire! I chilled here for like an hour cas of the vibez!

Chicken karaage is delicious! I thought the OG was alright. The meat and egg are great, but the ramen doesn't fill me up. The flavor of the broth doesn't wow me. I like the decorations here, both inside and outside! The unisex restrooms have cartoons on the walls-so cute! They have a parking lot outside. You have to walk around the building to find the entrance.

Had heard good things about Ramen Tatsu-Ya from several friends but my aversion to Ramen kept me from going... until this trip. My experience in the past with ramen is "broke college kid can only afford 11 for $1 squares of noodles" and I really, really disliked them... I was a 99 cent Totinos Pizza guy.Anyhow... this ain't my college ramen... price wise or taste wise... or ambience wise. It really flipped my whole understanding of ramen on its ear.... And returned it to its rightful place as a delicious meal. I admit I didn't know what wanted so I asked the server at the counter and she asked if I liked a little heat... then suggested the #4 - MI-SO-HOT (Tonkotsu).It. Was. Delicious. The broth was the perfect amount of flavor and heat. Just enough for my nose to start running a little but not enough to have to chug water. The pork was found pork, which I'm not a great fan of that consistency, but the flavor was good. The funky ajitama egg was a new thing for me but I quite enjoyed the velvety texture and flavor. I ate until full then had enough for lunch the next day (sadly I forgot the leftovers on the table and didn't realize it until I got back to work).It was a little bit more than I wanted to spend on lunch... about $15... but I also understand that it's worth it and not a bad price for the location and experience. I won't be a regular (just based on my finances) but I will certainly be back.

Ramen Tatsuya is a consistent restaurant in our dinner circuit. We always get the chicken karaage to start. It has a light crispy breading that's not too heavy. The chicken is always hot and juicy. The aioli comes with a different tangy sauce that brightens up the flavor well. I order the OG which has green onions, mushrooms, pork, and a soft boiled egg. The broth is salty and comforting with flavors that work very well with the mushrooms and onion. I add the extra garlic which is served with a garlic press so you're able to control how much garlic you want to add. There are plenty of the topping to match the large serving of noodles you get in the order as well. The egg and pork portions are a little small in comparison to everything else in the bowl but overall the ramen is a very good sized portion that always fills me up. The mushrooms are slightly dense and firmer than the noodles so it adds a good contrast to the chew while the onions provide a nice snap.The counter service is always pleasant and we were lucky that there wasn't a line at all today. Sometimes there is a line but it usually moves pretty fast and gives me a chance to glance over the menu (even thought I order the same thing every time).The setting and decoration inside is unique and the chopsticks and spoons are the table are very convenient. Great spot for a casual but sit down dinner!
