Karai Ramen Bistro

It was pretty quiet when my friend and I arrived here for a late lunch (but it soon after got busy!). He ordered the katsu chicken tenders as an appetizer (not pictured). I ordered the Tonkotsu Shoyu ramen which was very tasty. I was deciding between that and the regular Tonkotsu ramen, and if I'm not mistaken, the one I went with is the more creamy one. I didn't finish it all and the staff packaged it for me to go. I would definitely come back!

This is the place we always go to when in the beach blvd area. Best idea on this cold weather in Florida. We always enjoy the tasty ramen and fast service. The noodles are not soggy and has good bite to it. The tonkatsu ramen is very flavorful and tasty. The Karai ramen has a little spice to it but definitely adds to the flavor of the soup. Love this place.

My first time here and the food was hot and delicious! Good music playing over the sound system and the ambiance was nice and laid back. The service was quick and efficient which is always appreciated. I'll definitely be back!

Karai is so good, I've been coming here for years. It's always fun to take a newb here who has never dined at Karai before, & turn them into regulars as well. The broth has such a rich flavor no matter which ramen you decide to order, they are all scrumptious. I really like to check out the specials before ordering my go to ramen selections. Every special I've ordered ends up being so tasty. (You can find their specials on their website, and/or their instagram page. I always check both) End of last week I was here, and ordered their Tonkotsu Shoyu ramen. I added a little more protein to it from one of their suggested toppings (Japanese sausage). It was amazing! If you ever want to make your ramen a little spicy, you can always ask for a side of their chili oil and add in as much or as little as you'd like. The staff is always friendly, the food comes out pretty quick, and you always leave as one happy, satisfied customer. Karai also has a decent amount of drink selections too ~ beer, sake, various hot teas. Recently I saw they have started to add more desserts. While visiting last week, I also tried their ube cheesecake. Super light and fluffy, fresh, not too sweet. It was a really good light dessert to add to an entree. I highly recommend trying one of their featured desserts.

PHENOMENAL food! I was in town for work and found this place close to me. I dared to try new things and there was no regret. I would love to come back, I left craving their unique cheesecakes

My boyfriend recently introduced me to this place when I was visiting from California and it did not disappoint! I ordered the Tonkotsu ramen and it had the perfect balance of rich and savory broth with the tender pork. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the toppings were a great portion. We asked for spice on the side and it tasted even better. Will definitely come back again!

Bottom line up front....it's a good thing I'm not a local our I would spend way too much time and $ here if I was. My wife, Son and I all throughly enjoyed our lunches. This is so going to become a Road-Trip Bookmark and will be one of my must visits every time I'm in town visiting my parents.The service and food were both exceptional...Total Friends and Family recommendation.Hell, I'd even recommend this spot to my enemies...it was that good.

Wow! I am wondering why I have not visited sooner. Ramen is a great go to hard day comfort food! I was not disappointed. In a strip shopping center on Beach Blvd and San Pablo you are hidden deliciousness!Staff is professional and knowledgeable. Can't wait to go back!

We went here at advice of a friend. My first time eating ramen. While we waited at the door we met a couple of regulars who said this is their favorite place to eat and they'd never had a bad meal. We shared a few appetizers including Harumaki spring rolls (yummy), the Gyoza (yummy), and the potato korokke (did not enjoy). I had their popular Karai ramen and added cabbage and pork belly at the advice of their regulars. It was good and filling. My bf had the Tonkotsu ramen spicy. He liked his but didn't think it was 5 star worthy. Service was great. We would go back again.

This in good ramen if you like McDonald's. There is a better place over the ditch on Atlantic if you like quality.
