March is National Noodle Month...Cheers that it has 31 days to celebrate the one carb that I love...and here at Kamukura Ramen a place that's been on my list for quite some time that I finally get to give a peek as I've heard so much about them and the choices they have from their Grand Menu of Oishi Ramen to Hawaii Special Menu of Cheese Tomato that I actually really wanted to try but did notice the "Chicken Char Siu Ramen" as it consists of Yuzu Lemon Flavor that I love.I really wanted to sit one of their counter seats but since it was thirty minutes to closing I was denied which I totally understand but what a bummer as it was a much comforting vibe.Once I found one of many seatings available in Lanai Food Court packing was nice as they separate the noodle and soup which was okay as the yuzu was like a yuzu pepper paste you need to mix in with the soup and had more of a sharper pepper flavor than yuzu which was disappointing but their gyoza was quite huge with five pieces in an order had a nice chewy wrapper filled that was a generous serving along with a packet of sauce for their convenience but was an inconvenience for me as it was impossible to dip.Keeping the kama'aina in mind with giving a free 1/2 seasoned egg with a proof of Hawaii State ID is nice to keep us coming back for more to support this gem located in the Lanai Food Court.Thank you!

Hungry for ramen? We tried Kamukura Ramen inside one of Ala Moana's food court by Macy's side. The staff was friendly and even tried to help me decide on what to try from their menu. Be prepared to enjoy your ramen in a food court area with lots of people which means loud noises. We tried the Tan Tan Ramen with Deep Fried Gyoza. The Tan Tan Ramen is seasoned perfectly with the perfect temperature with every bite. The Deep Fried Gyoza was yummm too! I'd probably ask for more sauce next time ;) One packet sauce was not enough. I'd say try them. For a ramen place in a food court area, Kamukura Ramen will have you coming back for more of their food. I know I'd definitely be back to try the other ramen and other sides dishes like the fried chicken or their pesto gyoza! As always, thank you for reading my review. Have a great week!

Whoa delicious ramen in the food court? YesssssThis place is located in the Ala Moana mall food court near the Macy's side. As you walk into the food court it's on your right side when you walk inAmbiance is cheery, clean and bright with a seating area if you decide to dine in lol rather than sit in the larger food courtI ordered the oishi ramen for that light broth with napa cabbage and some gyoza. Ramen was yums and exactly what I wanted. Wow let's talk about the gyoza . It's packed with veggies and protein wrapped in a thin skin panfried till golden crisp. The chefs and staff are wonderful and welcoming here!Check it out

Great service, made to order dishes. We ordered fried rice, gyozas, and chicken karaage, they were all delicious. Especially the fried rice was made with Japanese rice that were more round and had a firmer texture, was especially enjoyable. We can see the chief making our dishes after we ordered, he even said hello and goodbye to us. People working here are very nice.

The oishii ramen had a light flavour that was refreshing. The noodles were cooked perfectly, too! While the char siu was as powerful as I would have liked, it went well with the lighter broth. I really enjoyed the cabbage in it, too. Service was fast, and the noren screen kept the sound out pretty decently. The price is a bit high, but the ramen for now is the best ramen I've had on island in a while. I even drank the broth, which I usually leave. O would 100% go back. I shared the bowl with my husband, and we just ordered extra noodles. The server gave me a separate little bowl and spoon to use. Very nice.

They were giving out 15% off coupons outside of the Honolulu Marathon expo. I wasnt able to go before the marathon but the coupon was good for the whole week. I made there the day after the marathon and the noodle soup was great. The broth is much lighter and less fatty than other places. The noodles were cooked just right with a chewy texture. When we were in Japan last summer I saw Kamakura Ramen places all over.

#30 of 52 (weeks of trying a new restaurant at least once a week).Looking for something to eat after visiting Made in Hawaii and since we were parked at the mall we checked out the small food court located near Macys. My honey and I enjoy trying different ramen restaurants so once we same Kamukura Ramen it was an easy decision. We both refuse to eat ramen without egg in it so we got the same dish, Seasoned Egg Ramen for $17.98.Ramen was ready in a few minutes. It doesn't look like other ramen as the broth is clear. The taste though blew us away. Where does all that flavor come from? The noodles were nice and chewy and the egg was good. I was not a fan of the cabbage though. It just didn't seem like the right veg with the ramen. Different bowl of ramen from other places we've tried but pretty flavorful.

Kamukura Ramen is located at the Lanai on mall level at Ala Moana Center. What I liked about this place was the ambience and exclusivity it offered despite being in a public eating space. They had these beautiful, flowy curtains that gave their own ramen bar seating an exclusive feel. If there was space open you could "eat in" at the bar. We got lucky as two people just left as we ordered. Otherwise you have to find a seat among the rest of the open food court (good luck). Kamukura has a variety of ramen. We ordered the half portions of the Tan Tan Ramen and the Aburi Char Siu Ramen. Both the tan tan and aburi char siu were good (solid 7.5/10). Both half portion ramen bowls were the perfect size as we also ordered the gyoza, which was huge, delicious, and the REAL star of the show guys! Be sure to order the gyoza when you come here! Service was friendly & pretty quick. I'd definitely come here again!

Being the loyal creamy, rich, tonkatsu ramen broth fan that I am, I seriously surprised myself at how much I LOVE Kamukura's broth. Humble in appearance (a light, thin, clear broth), it is anything but humble in flavor. The ultimate comfort broth that is so flavorful and rich, it's delicious. I love the cabbage that they pair with the broth, it's a perfect bowl of ramen. The regular size is a generous portion. Their karaage chicken is delicious, as well. The service is always polite and quick and we love being able to watch the cooks while we eat. We have been multiple times and have no intention of not coming back again very soon!
