The veggie ramen was very flavorful and the right level of spice. Will definitely visit again for it. The okonomiyaki was OK. Wish they had a crispy noodle option.

Not sure why we never tried Shibu Ramen before. We live in Kirkland so it's close to our house. We decided to try it today to see if this may become one of our staple restaurants.When you first get here it looks like a hole in the wall but it has pretty good seating. Right now there is limited seating as they closed off some tables for non-use. So you do want to anticipate a wait if you want to dine in. We were lucky and were able to get a table right away. The staff was very nice and helpful.We ordered Okonomiyaki, egg rolls, shoyu tonkotsu ramen, garlic tonkotsu ramen, and spicy garlic tonkotsu ramen. I love Okonomiyaki! I have had it in Japan, and it is one of my favorite dishes. I was hoping this one would at least be okay, but I was pleasantly surprised that it was pretty good. I really enjoyed their Okonomiyaki. The egg rolls were your standard egg rolls and were good. I really liked their sauce. It was a nice sweet, sour and spicy flavor that goes well with the egg rolls. The Ramen was definitely the star of the show. The garlic Tonkotsu is really good. It's a different flavor with the garlic in the tonkotsu, but it really works. Although it is still a little pricey for ramen, they are a little less expensive than some other Ramen places for the same quality and amount of food. I think this was great value for what they charge. I think we found a new staple in our restaurant repertoire. We'll definitely be back.

Made a 30 minute round trip from Woodinville to Shibu... Really been looking for a quality Ramen spot, this is not the place. This is the worst ramen I've ever had.Save your money & believe in manufactured reviews, this place is a prime example!Highly recommend Kazuki Ramen in Northgate 5 star rating every time!

This spot is yummy and authentic ramen noods. My daughter and I stopped in after we went to a festival at Juanita Beach Park and we got there before it got busy. It's a small restaurant so indoor seating is limited. I got the garlic tonkotsu ramen. Two words - GET IT! Uggghh the creamy, rich broth with what seems like a whole head of fresh garlic sitting on top... drool. SO Delicious. The noodles were perfection. Highly recommend. My daughter got the chicken karaage and it was good. The chicken crispy and moist. Okay my review is making ME want to stop by this weekend. It's really a great place that I highly recommend. The staff, owners I believe, are very sweet. Very efficient. Get in early!

Not perfect, but tasty and cozy atmosphere.Ordered the Miso Tonkotsu Ramen. It came in a few minutes but there was only one other order being prepared at the time. Eggs are normal hard boiled and came cold (unfortunate), corn wasn't particularly flavorful. That being said, broth was excellent and noodles have good texture (slightly on the firm side) and flavor. The pork came in two thin slices, the meat-fat distribution was even and not too fatty, and there was a slight crispy grilled texture.The prices are relatively cheap for ramen (mostly below $20 at the time of writing) and portion size is decent, so while it isn't perfect, you're getting what you pay for. This makes things still a 4/5 instead of a lower rating.Chopsticks and spoons when you dine in are comfortable to use and feel nice in the hand. They are not the bamboo disposable kind.Building is somewhat small, but you can order takeout too. Service is good and you pay at a tablet in the front. It has decent decor, comfortable seating (single tables, double tables, and booths, all hardwood, booths are around but not above head height) and during dark hours it is somewhat dimly lit, but in a good way. It's quite cozy.I would go again if passing by and wanting to dine alone, eating casually with a friend, looking for takeout, or looking for affordable ramen. I would not go here for a special occasion or with a group larger than 4.

We were looking for restaurants that were still open around 8:40pm in Kirkland. If you live in the area, you know it's very difficult to find decent restaurants that are open after 9pm other than bars or fast food. We didn't know where to go, so we were driving around and found this place tonight.Food - 3/5. If you are looking for a good ramen in the east side, go to Kizuki or Santouka. This won't be a place for you. Their ramen is like someone's mom made it for you at home. And that's ok if you are just hungry and want to eat comfort food. I ordered chicken Katsu (cutlet) donburi (chicken cutlet $ eggs on top of rice). It's nothing special, but was good and satisfied my hunger tonight. Their karaage isn't so much like real Japanese deep fried chicken, but they were tasty. My boyfriend's garlic tonkotsu ramen was our least favorite, but it wasn't bad.Service - 4/5. When we sat down, it was already 8:50pm and they were closing in 10 minutes. But this nice Korean lady welcomed us in and let us dine. She even offered us hot tea since it was cold outside. She closed the store when we left around 9:15pm.Ambiance -3/5. It's a cozy clean restaurant. Not like a romantic date spot, but no complaints.Would I come back? Certainly. It won't be my favorite spot to go, but I'd come back here again and try other food. They have both Korean and Japanese food there.
