Small parking lot right at the front. Make reservation cause there are a lot of people trynna dine here. Last call is at 8pm, so heads up for that. The food is delicious. The potato mochi app is a must get! It's a crazy potato form factor. The corn tempura is pretty good but also decently heavy and oily so you could share it across more than 4 people. Daikon salad is solid too. And the fried chicken cartilage is so crispy I'll recommend if you're into that type of food. The ramen is thick and flavorful, and the spicy does add up - not the spiciest you've ever had, but kind of like shin ramen spice... But even the no spice ones are great. The Kona coffee jelly dessert is amazing and so soft and flavored too. Come soon! Service is great. You can open a tab and the food and drinks come so quickly.
When they first opened their ramen was exceptionally good and they were always busy. But over the last couple of years the quality of the food seems to have gone down. Maybe the pandemic played a factor, or maybe they had to sacrifice quality in order to meet the demand to get costumers in and out to lessen the wait time. Maybe it’s both, or not. I don’t know. I had the tan tan ramen on this trip, and although it wasn’t bad, I’ve had better elsewhere. It was described as mildly spicy, but there was hardly any spiciness in my opinion. Also ordered the karaage chicken, and while we appreciated the portion size, we wished they had cut them into more manageable bite sized pieces. Service was average.
All the food was good except the beef tongues. The beef tongues were too solid and hard to take. It's unlike the average beef tongues. However, all the other foods are fantastic!! The fried chicken is one of the best in the U.S.
The best ramen that I have ever had! So tasty, I recommend to visit this restaurant for everyone! Sparerib Tan Tan Men has a very rich flavour. Pork spareribs really melt in your mouth. Broth is buttery, spicy, rich and delicious! In the menu, you can find a several options of the broth, as well as additions. I tried Gyodashi Shoyu Ramen, and its broth was made from chicken and seafood. For any ramen you can select the spicy level and select the protein if you want.
The best Ramen place I’ve visited so far on Oahu. Ghost spicy is making me feeling great. All appetizers are amazingly delicious. I would come back soon.
Ramen noodles are great I'd also recommend the mini char sui bowl! Last but not least, the yuzu sorbet and Kona coffee jelly are the best dessert!
Had the veggie ramen, spring rolls, chicken karaage. Got a huge portion of the chicken took a while to come with a yummy tangy sauce. The ramen was AMAZING! Super flavorful! The spring rolls were good too hot and crispy not as oily as you’d expect. You’ll need to make reservations as they fill up quite fast but the service is quick too so you should be able to get a table with little wait time.
Was told the best Hawaii ramen rivals those in Japan, so got to try. Every dish delights! Ramen was bouncy and broth rich, balanced, flavourful. Ordered few appetisers. Equally charmed! Shrimp was bouncy in a fried wrapper, with a tail for easy finger pick-up. Chicken was tender insider and crispy outside, no fiery sauce needed to be addicted for more. Spicy cucumber was not spicy, but still crunchy. Delicious food that doesn’t break the bank. Highly recommend!!! Thank you for an amazing meal !!!
Best spicy ramen we’ve EVER had! The flavors were complex and everything was so fresh. Service was superb. Waitlist process was seamless. Highly recommend!
There were tons of people lining up at the door! I planned to dine in but eventually ordered appetizers and ramen online and took them back to my hotel room. It may not look good in the picture, but the potato mochi and ramen are delicious! The flavor of shoyu, the sweetness of the potato, and the unique taste of seaweed balanced well on the potato mochi. The broth of ramen is deep. The corn tempura became soft when I got back, so that I couldn't comment on the taste of it
