I got the edamame app and the bento box. Edamame was yum-- well-seasoned, and smokey-charred-- star of the meal. The bento box had some sushi rolls (solid, nothing spectacular, but fresh), some cucumber side (refreshing), salad (simple but great), and a miso soup. The miso soup was extremely salty, flavor was ok but it clearly over reduced and was the low light. I couldn't finish it. Over all, I thought the meal was good (with some low lights), the service was good, I'll award it 4/5!

My daughter chose this restaurant for the Ramen. I guess because it is a Ramen shop you would expect a limited menu. The interior was well designed was comfortable. You can go with a date or you can go as a family. Personally, it was the 80s and 90s rap which I extremely loved, I've seen bad reviews about the music, and I would have to disagree with them. The music was not that loud and set the mood of the establishment. We got there and we seated right away, and the waiter was exceptional! He was a tentative, he gave suggestions, and he helped with all manner of the order. Now to the downside. Being we do Ramen on a constant basis the broth in the soup left undesirable taste. Neither one of my kids wanted to finish, they did eat the noodles and the meat. Size was decent size for the amount. I would not say this is a Knogo, but I would say be expecting of the soup.Japanese eggplant fries 5/5, I thought they were exceptionally well. They had a sweet spicy taste him and the dipping sauce that came with. It was really good as well.Shrimp and pork dumplings 4/5 these were on the smaller size. But you did get quite a few on the dish. Again, these had more very sweet chili spicy taste.Maki Express set 5/5 I really enjoyed this. The miso soup is very good, the salad ginger sauce wasn't bad, I had salmon and avocado rolls and spicy tuna rolls. Both of the roads are very fresh and the presentation was good.

My husband was craving ramen + my friend recommended this place. I loved that they had other things on their menu besides ramen because our little son is not a fan.. There were plenty of good things on the menu for him to order though- like enough things that he had a hard time deciding what to go with. I got a fried chicken/kimchi ramen and it was pretty legit. Comforting, fatty and spicy.. just as ramen should be. I demolished my whole bowl.. but like.. I mostly always do Then play hip hop, which is fun.. but it was a bit loud in here. I thought it was a vibe, but could be annoying if you are trying to talk or whatever. Would likely return

My second experience here was a lot better than my first! This time I tried something new (the veggie ramen) & it was so good. I loved the broth & the mushrooms in it. I wish they seasoned / cooked the tofu better though. It was very bland and flavorless. We ordered it to-go, but still had to wait awhile for our order to be ready once we got there. It was packed for a Sunday night, so I recommend making a reservation. Can't wait to go back & try some of the sushi next time!!!!

Food: 3.5/5Service 4/5Value 5/5Location: 4.5/5A short walk from the Mag Mile and once of the few options for Asian food. Definitely not authentic Japanese if that's what were looking for but their express lunch special offered a lot for the money. They have a limited drink menu and most of it isn't really even Asian. There are a good number of tables with a decent bar for this area.What I ordered:Express lunch with karaage chicken with the rice, salad, cucumbers, tonkatsu ramen. Salad was nothing special or Japanese. Marinated cucumbers were good. Rice was good well, karaage needs some work for more flavor but overall not too bad. Got lots of meat of the tonkatsu ramen and the marinating we really good. I'd say the chashu was definitely the highlight of the meal. Ramen broth and molten egg was ok, definitely had better.Michielle Wie - a mix of Yuzu and green tea. Was recommended this because I didn't want something too sweetIf you are craving some Asian food on the Mag Mile, this might satisfy it a bit.

My first visit to Ramen San was pleasant. Their spacious seating area easily accommodated our large party, and we appreciated the variety of seating options. We indulged in a selection of drinks, including the Penicillin, Asahi, and Yuzu Sake Bomb, all of which impressed us.As for the food, everything we ordered, from the Japanese eggplant fries to the crispy tofu bun, maki express set, and Kimchi & fried chicken bowl--was delicious. A standout was the generous portion of the kimchi and fried chicken bowl, which we asked to be split into halves, and the server happily obliged. We also ordered karaage nuggets and chicken gyoza, both were equally good. For dessert, the Thai tea creme brulee and donuts were yummy, with the creme brulee being a definite recommendation.Overall, the experience was fantastic, with prompt service and a pleasant ambience adding to the enjoyment.

I've dined in and done takeout from this location multiple times, and I was never disappointed! The ramen I've ordered from Ramen San is the Tan Tan (the vegetarian ramen dish). It's delicious!! The restaurant service is always great. The last waiter gave my sister and me the extra big booth just cuz! He also did a very good job with convincing us to try the mini doughnuts, which were yummy.The ambiance at this location is calm and soothing, with comfortable seating and dim slights. FYI the lycheetini is pretty strong! I can't wait to get the Tan Tan again soon!

This place was really nice. I came on a Wednesday evening, it was busy but I was seated right away. They have a decent menu. I started off with eggplant fries. They were very unique and fun to try! The 10 hour tonkotsu was delicious . The pork in it was so flavorful and melted in your mouth. The drink selection wasn't huge but the two cocktails I had, lychee martini and yuzu margarita, were great. Overall, I enjoyed eating here.

To start: service is amazing here. Haven't had a place pack my food in forever so love that. But my reviews prioritize the food.My waitress didn't recommend anything I ordered so maybe it's on me lol.Tonkatsu: egg was nice and jammy, but broth was lacking. They offer a lot of fixings on the table, but I rarely ever add sauce/more toppings on my ramen so that felt strange. Thai tea crème brûlée: sugar top mostly tasted burnt and the custard tasted like nothing. Waitress recommended the donut so maybe that was on me lol.Overall I'd be back because I liked the service. Maybe I'm being harsh because I'm from LA hahah.

A perfect meal.We came in for a midweek dinner and took advantage of the happy hour ("lucky hour") cocktail specialsNot usually a fan of gimmicky drinks, but the penicillin #2 was just a great way to take the edge off a Wednesday work day. If you like ginger and good whiskey, order it.Japanese eggplant fries were battered just enough and fried beautifully.The 10 hour tonkatsu ramen was rich and satisfying. The kimchi fried chicken ramen was full of texture and buttery, spicy flavors.Service was okay, and the room is softly lit and chill. Vintage hip-hop playing throughout the meal. Perfectly audible, but not too loud. This place is definitely going into our rotation of relaxing midweek dinner options.
