Motto Ramen

First time coming here on Sunday while it was raining. It's self seating, so my family and I sat down and were greeted right away. It's a big ramen shop with many seating options. I have NO pictures of the food because we dug in as soon as everything came out. The broth was delicious and flavorful! The yellowtail carpaccio was probably the best I ever had. (Very fresh) The fried dim sum was so pleasant, delicate, and delicious. We also ordered the chicken karaage. The only miss for me was the sweet mayo that came with the chicken aioli. But overall we were so satisfied with our meal. Total was about $80. Definitely coming back to try other stuff!!!!! (:

Motto ramen is located in the plaza with target. There was plenty of parking. Got seated right away. They serve ramen and sushi. They had a build your own noodle and you can choose from different broths, noodles, and toppings. I did the spicy miso with tsukemen noodles. The broth was delicious but it was waaaay too spicy. I told our server and she gave me a small bowl of regular miso broth. It definitely helped, but still spicy. Next time I will be asking for mild. This time they didn't ask what spicy level. I'm not sure if tsukemen noodles are usually like this, but the noodles were hard. I would have liked them to be a bit softer. I got chicken chashu as my protein. It had a good miso flavor! It was delicious. Got the chicken karage as an appetizer, it was good but there wasn't too much flavor.

I hate that I have to give lower stars, but I cannot give this place a 5 review. I'd give it 1 but the manager was nice so I will add 1 extra for kindness.We went for ramen. Red Flag 1) the waitress saw us sit down and gave menus to the party who came in after usRed Flag 2) the waitress asked us if we would like anything to drink and we ordered water. It took her forever to bring itRed Flag 3) The party next to our booth found hair in her soup and we flagged down someone for her, because gross!Red Flag 4) Husband asked her if the sashimi was ahi and she said we only have tuna and salmon. Ahi IS Tuna.Red Flag 5) The waitress pulled a crumpled piece of receipt paper out of her pocket to write our order onNeither of us finished our ramen. I had pork ramen and it had corn in it and what tasted like chicharrones rather than cuts of katsu pork. It was salty and the chicharrone-like things were fatty and turned my stomach. Tonkotsu ramen doesn't typically have corn in it! Husband had chashu pork soup and his soup was extremely sweet. For the first time ever, husband did not finish his food and he did not leave a gratuity, which is unusual for someone raised in Polynesia...they eat and eat. When the manager walked by to ask us if we wanted to-go bowls for our food, we both declined, which is also unusual. He asked husband in private what was wrong, and husband said, "It was too sweet. Not the way I am used to. Maybe it's different back home." Husband's sashimi was the wrong style of cut, or at least what he's used to. Being a person who went to culinary school, husband said it tasted low-grade. They didn't have spicy mustard and they didn't even know what that was. So he just asked for wasabi and ginger.We really wanted to like this place and lost our appetites quickly. I liked my ice water better than my soup.

I'm a gluten free girly and there were rice noodles that weren't pho noodles!! You can even build your own bowl if you wantI LOVED the motto black ramen with the black garlic oil. Delicious - and large chashu pieces.Sushi pieces were large as well - you can order half rolls (as pictured) or full.

Love coming here. They have ramen, sushi and other dishes so there's something for everyone. The staff is always kind and serve quickly. Quiet vibes, but very pleasant atmosphere to eat at. Don't forget to try the mochi!

Just came back from about a month in Japan, so my standards for ramen is probably more particular than usual. Almost faltered with coming in but so glad I didn't. Got the crispy pork ramen. Broth was decent, and would've merited a 4 stars. But the pork made this dish an easy 5 stars. Protein portion was generous. I didn't take a pic before eating because I didn't expect to be pleasantly surprised like so...so much so that I'm posting this as I am seated at the restaurant.Noticed the negative reviews were from 5-6 years ago, but if you look at the recent posts, they're pretty stellar. Was curious so I asked the server and was told the ownership transitioned to 4 friends about 2 years ago. I have without a doubt once H Mart opens in this plaza that this place will be buzzing. Def an underrated place

Motto Ramen gave me an amazing experience for a lunch treat for myself and the food was absolutely delicious!Motto Ramen is tucked in a shopping center on Beach Boulevard in between a Target and a Gamestop. There'll be a short drive from Beach Blvd to get near the restaurant, but it honestly is so worth it to eat here!I ordered the Pork Katsu Curry right when I was seated. I am a huge fan of spicy food so I added their special chili oil and extra curry sauce because I'm all about the sauce! The pork cutlet was fried to a really crispy outside, which was really enjoyable! Plus the sauce, which had amazing flavor and it made for one of the best curry cutlet meals I've ever had! When I looked inside the katsu, it looked like it was mostly breading and not so much pork - though I could be wrong. The plate was massive! I definitely didn't need to order an extra serving of curry sauce, though more Katsu would have been great! The service was on point! All of my requests were taken care of and the waitress was friendly and attentive! My experience was really nice, the food was super tasty and the service was on point. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend!

Uh-oh! I now have another favorite at excellent Motto Ramen. Their tom kha ramen is spot on. Flavors are perfect, the offered veg comes in ideal-sized portions, & those truly are tiger prawns!

Wow this fusion ramen spot!!! WAS ITTTT!! Had 2 diff ramens and BOTH were excellent. Black ramen was smoky and not spicy We ordered a y one too and was the Hokkaido spicy miso and that was my favorite!!! Rich flavorful took me back to Japan

Hands down still my favorite ramen! Even though I think they changed hands awhile back, they still serve the same ramen and added MANY items to the previously small menu. I get the "Moto Black" which is filled with Black Garlic oil, bean sprouts, egg and woodear mushrooms... DELICIOUS!! Tonight I tried the new version of pork bun. They have two kinds. The new option is fried and crispier, but after trying it, I prefer the regular. Frying is crispier, but also tends to be drier. Both made with their exceptional pork belly which melts in your mouth. (Not a fan of thin pork in most ramen). This pork belly is AMAZING. Very flavorful and cooked to perfection! Their fried rice is normally over the top, with the same pork belly, shredded. Today, however, I smelled too much fish sauce. Maybe a fluke because it's usually VERY good.
