Diana CasterraFebruary 3, 2019I always order the red edition ramen, that’s the best, but order the hot spice on the side because it’s really hot, in my personal opinion this is the best ramen in San Diego and I’ve been to a few.

Licci ZemleduchJune 27, 2017Food was delicious, we tried vegetarian ramen and sushi, we did have to wait over 30 min to get in and the restrooms didn't work but other than that service and food are excellent!
- Serious EatsSeptember 16, 2013This busy ramen shop has created their own take on the ramen burger. Patty options include turkey, veggie, pork, or beef, but go with the signature option: tsukune (chicken).
Joelle ReederApril 29, 2015Great ramen and fantastic special! I recommend getting there by 11 when they open, by 11:30 the place is packed.
- MuddyJune 1, 2018Great ramen!! The second time I had the oxtail ramen, which was also great! The wait can be long but you can also order to go on line and pick it up without a wait.
Jenny NewJuly 16, 2017Delicious food, slow service since they're always packed. And when they say lean pork they mean LEAN, so get underbelly if you're expecting any fat on your chashu. Tsukemen broth was on the thin side.
TiffanyApril 5, 2017Too many choices to choose from. I got the black garlic ramen and that was really good. Also get the rakiraki roll and the karaage chicken.
Ben Z 🍣 🍺August 9, 2014They do a good job of cooking ramen for the ramen burger bun - sticks together better than others I've had. The beef/pork ramen burger was a bit dry.
JeannieNovember 25, 2012Pay a little more and add extra toppings like egg to your ramen. The tsukumen (dipping ramen) and chicken karaage are pretty good too.
Naomi FematAugust 21, 2017Order the RakiRaki roll! You will not regret it! Photo courtesy of instagram: @dinnerforktwo
Janey ZhaoJanuary 27, 2015My tonkatsu ramen was as warming as the industrial ground-up interior design and the seemingly sporadic dangling light fixtures. Choose from Sapporo and Asahi beers.
Jacqueline L.September 16, 2016Best ramen in San Diego. This place does a tastier chicken-based broth than Tentenyu.
The Chicken Karaage appetizer is great and worth getting with a Donburri bowl to make a great lunch!
They've expanded their lunch menu!! This place is awesome. Definitely my #1 ramen place <3
Ti WuSeptember 19, 2016I won't call this authentic, but it's delicious. So, give it a try, at least once.
Frank ChenSeptember 1, 2013Dipping ramen! Also the richest chicken broth I've ever had. Splurge for the premium.
Trecia LoveringAugust 9, 2014Ramen is highly recommended (even though I was there to try the ramen burger).
- Skip the ramen and order the Tsukumen if you want something fulfilling and comforting. You won't be disappointed.
Han S Chiu MDSeptember 4, 2013They need to have a Gluten Free menu. Perhaps offer soup with sprouts or the new Gluten Free Ramen.
Corinna LewisMay 23, 2013Get the lunch combo... Eat all your ramen before you leave. They don't have proper Togo containers for soup.
- The Ramen Bowl Lunch Special is phenomenal. Super flavourful and more than enough food for a great price. Very attentive staff offering great service. All in all, top pick on Convoy.
Fermin C.February 3, 2013They use chicken broth instead of pork broth for their ramen. It's not as salty, but the garlic noodles from this place is worth the visit.
Javier OropezaOctober 10, 2017Buenisimo, ya se encientran tambièn en Little Italy, frwnte a la cerveceria Ballaspoint
