I haven't eaten ramen in awhile because it's usually too heavy/ fatty for me, but I was really pleasantly surprised by this place. It's no frills, good ramen. We got the regular kitakata ramen and juicy fried chicken. Juicy was no joke, our fried chicken was very juicy with a good breading and not oily at all. The house special dipping sauce that it came with paired really well. The kitakata ramen was very refreshing with fresh noodles and a very straight forward pork broth. Service was great and we were checked on several times. Would definitely come back on another day when I want some good comfort food.

The ramen here is so good. I get the kitakata ramen and it's amazing. The broth and noodles are amazing and the slices of chasu are so good! The salted edamame is also good. The workers are really nice and check in on you. The space is well lit and very clean.

Came here after waiting in line for bopomofo's open house for an hour and 15 minutes!! I've seen this spot for quite some time now and finally got to try it out I want to note that the ramen noodles here are different from your typical ramen. They're tsukemen ramen style, so they're a lil flatter, wider, & chewier. The soup was so light but flavorful at the same time. The toro chashu was AMAZING. The fatty part made the chashu melt in your mouth Interior was so cute and looked like a ramen shop you'd see in Japan! Would 100% come again!!

Next to Target and Costco, with plenty of parking. Best part was no wait. It could mean that either people still don't know about it, or not good. Have to give it a try.First impression. Ample space between seatings. Don't feel crammed like you are actually eating in Japan. The cooks were not japanese, but they were skillful at what they make. Immediately upon entering, we were greeted and lead to a table. After ordering, the food were served hot within timely manner. The portions were generous and fulfilling. I would definitely recommend their fried chicken! Super tasteful with great texture. The meat in the ramen were a bit different, they were about 1cm or 1/4" cubes unlike other ramen shops. The meat was tender and tasteful. The chashu was very tender too. The noodle had a very balanced texture. The broth itself was slightly on the salty side.The service was great and the restaurant was very clean. Overall, it was a very satisfying experience. It gets a 4.8 out of 5. Will come again!

Was super impressed by the ramen here. I got the umatara tan tan ramen and I highly recommend this one! All the flavors come together super well, it's not too spicy, and the broth is amazing. I also really like the texture of the noodles here. They cut up pork Chasiu pieces into the ramen and even though I got the regular bowl, it was very filling. I got an egg added to it, which I don't think is necessary for an extra $1.60.My boyfriend got the chasu ramen and said he didn't recommend that one because it's not very flavorful. Service overall is also pretty quick! Ambiance inside reminds me of Menya Ultra.

Got to try one of their limited time seasonal items today! It was basically a ramen salad with a vinegar, sesame, and miso sauce. If you like these flavors, it is so so so delicious!! Really refreshing as well and great for the summer months.

Definitely would come back for their lunch special! Kitakata has plenty of parking available, nice service, and only accepts card/apple-samsung pay only. Food ordered:-Juicy Fried Chicken-Takoyaki-Kitakata Miso Ramen with egg-Japanese Katsu CurryTheir ramen bowls are on the larger portion size especially for a large, and the chicken is freshly fried. The Japanese Katsu Curry was a bit salty since there wasn't anything else to offset the flavor, but it was good overall.

We were seated right away, immediately greeted, and accommodated to a booth so my boyfriend and I could sit together. The restaurant was clean and had plenty of seating. The service was good too, our waitress came to us often checking in on us. We ordered a fried chicken appetizer. It was served piping hot with a tangy sauce and a lemon wedge. Plenty of crunch and not too much breading. Not the best I've had but not bad at all! 7.5/10 My boyfriend got the umakara tan tan with an added egg. Now bear with me, he's a ridiculously picky eater.(Obnoxiously so, in my opinion) For comparisons sake, his favorite ramen is @ underbelly. He said he would not go here again, saying the broth wasn't good, it had too many noodles, and he disliked that the meat was cubed up. But he did have something good to say! He loved the egg which was perfectly runny. He said he'd give it a 3/10. I tried his and I would give it a 8/10. I liked it and ate his leftovers. I got the spicy miso ramen with an added egg. I loved mine. Thought the pieces of meat were tender. The broth was silky with the perfect amount of heat. The egg was cooked to perfection. I appreciated the generous amount of noodles, giving me another large meal to eat later on. I liked my boyfriends ramen (tan tan) more but mine still hit the spot. I'd give mine a 7.5/10. I'd come back here and bring friends or my son who I know appreciate good ramen. I'd give this spot a 7.5 overall.
