Goma Tei Ramen Kahala

Located by the movie theaters in Kahala Mall.Great spot to have lunch or dinner. U shaped seating area for individuals and table seating for 2 or more.They have a wide variety of flavor, proteins, broths and teas. The 2 gentleman workers kept up well with the lunch crowd that filled all of the tables.A safe, easy and tasty bet to fuel your shopping or working needs.

This used to be one of my very favorites. Now it's just not!The number one issue is that tons of take out boxes are still lined up along the wall. During pandemic times, this was understandable,but not anymore! The owner needs to find a different storage solution. Perhaps at the owners home, or top rankings manager home . The boxes totally upset the ambiance. Thinking of fire hazards, bugs that love to make home in these boxes ect.The service was ok and timely. , but not very personable. Boring service.The food was just fine, but better in the past.The new plates and bowls are really ugly! The old ones were much classier! All these things make a difference.I don't want to return here for awhile. Oh, yes, the prices went much higher! $51 for two people and I don't feel happy. Eating out is to feel happy and great experience. We have spent less and had a much better experience at many other restaurants around town. Eating out is an experience of life.We used to highly recommend this place. No more recommendations from us. Bye bye.

There are times when it's packed usually weekends or lunch/dinner time but the quality of their ramen is good!

This place is located in the Kahala mall near the movie theater. It was my first time to try the won ton shoyu ramen. I would give it 3/5. The won ton was so so and it did not impress me much. My husband has his usual tan tan and he enjoyed it 4/5. I had taken one star off because the restaurant was not kept tidy. There's a lot of carton boxes which are prone to cockroaches and they're near the kitchen. I would rather not see those boxes around.

Figured this is deserving of an update since I've been several times since my last visit, and happy to report this was a fan favorite. Love the convenience of getting here (easy parking), and that there is never a line, but wish the service was a bit more attentive. Highlights:* Curry rice* Spicy tonkatsu ramen (spice added)* GyozaLowlights:* Japanese wontons

Goma Tei's food is consistently good, but it's getting expensive!$29 (incl tax/tip) for:Chicken Tatsutaage $10.5Japanese Won Ton Soup $12.5$42 (incl tax/tip) for:Gyoza $10.5Char Siu Tan Tan Ramen $18.25extra Choy Sum $2.5Ajitama $2.25Decent portions, so my justification for spending $42 on ramen and gyoza is at least I get a 2nd meal out of it! (set aside your take home portion before diving in)The servers are always attentive and atmosphere is clean and well lit. Tables open up quick at the Kahala location compared to longer wait times at the Pearlridge location. Can't leave without mentioning their dishes are loaded with msg. Eat there in moderation and when you do, drink lots of water!

How do you ramen...This Gomatei in Kahala Mall located right beside the Consolidated Theater wing and though is always quite busy they always seem to have a place for you either at any one of ten four top tables or their super long counter that seems to seat a dozen on each side.Their menu is quite massive and seems to expand beyond the traditional Japanese bowl from Fish dumplings, Won Ton and even a Truffle Ramen! Tonight I'm trying something different, Hot & Sour Soup. As I was waiting for my food outside they were giving out free samples of their new menu item "Rainbow Pickled Salad" and some drinks (milk tea, lemon iced tea or plantation tea) and a sweet young man asked if I'd like a free sample of the item offered and went outside to bring it to me which was so thoughtful and sweet, while the girl who brought out my ramen couldn't be more the opposite as I could barely hear her calling out my bowl and dropped it on the seat next to me which felt rude while another young man brought my gyoza right beside my bowl and was nice.The vibe is very cozy and welcoming with cute kids art drawings on the wall as I enjoyed my hot bowl of ramen which was yummy loved the thin noodles cooked perfectly the spicy sour soup really comfort my long work week and gave me that much needed energy. Gyoza is pan fried which I love and will have it only that way was a great two bite sized with lots of fillings. The comfort of ramen is the best and gomatei has the whole vibe and more.Thank you!Yummy

Bustling ramen spot in the Kahala Mall that is popular with families. Even though it was busy, we put our name on the list and got a table pretty quickly. Good sized portions and nice selection of ramens and other Japanese dishes. I enjoyed the tonkatsu curry I got and the portion was generous. Was pleased to get a homemade katsu sauce for my 'katsu on the side'. My companions got the tantan ramen and both cleaned their bowls, including the yummy broth.

Movies and Ramen? Sounds like a great combination? Kahala Mall has it all. Dinner at Goma Tei Ramen Kahala and Consolidated Theater next door. We ordered Shredded pork & Szechuan Pickle Sunho with hot and sour soup (No. 18) , the Tan Tan Ramen (No. 1) and an order of gyoza. No. 18 was very spicy and vinegary tasting. If you like hot and sour soup, you can order this one. 3 out of 5 stars. No. 1 was too oily for my taste. The soup base was sesame oil based? The char siu pork slice was chewy and bland. 2 out of 5 stars. The gyoza was filled and cooked perfectly. 4 out of 5 stars. This was the best dish we ordered. Service was spotty. I needed to get the attention of multiple servers for water and later for the bill. I ended up having to walk into the back of the restaurant to pay the bill because every time I tried to get the attention of a server to pay the bill, it's like tunnel vision overcame each server. No one wanted our money lol. It didn't appear very busy. 3 out of 5 stars. The location or acoustics of this restaurant reverberated all sounds. It was very noisy here. 3 out of 5 stars.
