Hagaya Ramen Shop

Alright... we just left this shop and I'm going to be honest, the hopes of seeing someone get yelled at for not leaving a tip AND the beautiful looking food in the photos brought us in off of our 15 hour road trip home.The ambience and decor 10/10The ramen 9/10The sushi.....Lord help me, the SUSHI was some of the best, freshest, most delicious sushi I've ever eaten and I've had ALOT of sushi in my 37 years. A small family runs the shop and puts their heart and soul into bringing authentic, fresh, beautiful food to their patrons. YOU NEED TO TIP THEM! Just for those reasons alone. The place was practically full and it did not take long to get our food.We ordered fried spring rolls 10/10Shumai dumplings 10/10Gyoza 10/10Spicy tuna roll 10/10Spicy salmon roll 10/10Caterpillar Roll 10:10Then they gave us a Shanghai Roll on the house! It was so delicious My husband and son ordered the spicy tonkatsu ramen and the noodles had the perfect amount of chew, the meat was tender and delicious. The eggs were not umami eggs they were hard boiled plain eggs. The broth was tasty but not very spicy. We eat super spicy food though so it may be spicy to some. I wanted to hug the woman who worked there when I was leaving but instead I told her how the sushi was some of the absolute best I've ever had and then left an extra tip on the jar. It is SO HARD these days to find places that truly take pride in making beautiful / delicious food. Most of the time I can care less about the service if the food is as good as this. But the service was perfect too. I wish I could pick this place up and move it to Texas we started tearing into the food before I could get perfect pictures of everything but take my word for it. Give them all the Michelin stars!

I absolutely adore this little ramen shop! It has a super comfy atmosphere that is very welcoming. The booths are nice and intimate, and there is a large cherry blossom tree decorating the main area from floor to ceiling. It is super pretty and very photogenic! The food is delicious. They serve appetizers, sushi, and ramen. My personal favorite dishes are the Yuzu ramen and the gyoza. The pork in the ramen melts in your mouth and is super flavorful! I also love the spring rolls they serve with the ramen. They are the perfect size! The sushi is also super yummy, I like the spicy kanai roll and the snow mountain roll. The service here is wonderful. You order on your phone and are in charge of keeping your own water fill with a pitcher on the table, but the people who bring the food out are always so kind and make sure you are set before they leave the table.It is truly a gem in the little town of Emporia!

Ohhhhh boy.... Everything is good here but I adore the ramen! The atmosphere is beautiful - there's much to take in including a beautiful cherry blossom tree. I highly recommend going and trying everything on the menu!

This is a hidden gem in emporia, when you walk in, you'll be transported to a whole different place. The sushi roll selection is outstanding and unique flavor combinations! Definitely a must eat. Service is excellent and they are very generous and accommodating.

Legitimately the best ramen place I've ever been to. I loved the decor and set up and everything we ordered was beyond delicious. The service was shockingly quick. I need to find more ways to come here.

10/10 Vibes. Unbelievable service and food. Better than anything that I have had in LA. Can not recommend this little jewel in the heart of Emporia highly enough.

Fantastic food and quick service. Yes it is a pre order on phone or kiosk with tip; but it was very easy. Decorations are fun with great atmosphere!

I wish i could leave a Zero star review anywayss WORST EXPERIENCE IVE EVER HAD ANYWHERE me and my Gf went to try this place out and after ordering our food the chef/owner stormed us and said we couldn't eat there because we left no tip he said " Sorry you leave no tip, we are not fast food restaurant.. you can tip if not you cannot eat here" MIND YOU i hadn't even spoken to anyone i walked in not even a hi.. a sign said to order by yourself and seat yourself. So im confused as to why he thought he deserved a tip Likeee my boii service me first then ill tip accordingly! I never tip with card anyways i always leave cash! I woulda gladly left something after i ate my MEAL because ppl have to clean up after me but nooooo this dude just thinks you gotta tip before he even starts cooking ‍

First, this place is super cute! So inviting and interesting; love the private booths. The food was great. So glad we tried this place.

Was told to leave after spending over $100 between 3 people and ordered at the kiosk And was demanded that we tip. Waited 20 mins for our drinks aloneI understand you should tip but I see it as payment to a server not to the establishment itself. After all said am done I still threw $25 on the table after we got our food Other than that food was delicious.
