My wife comes here very often after getting her nails done. It was probably my second time eating there. The people there are really nice and attentive to the customers. I forgot to take pictures until after I finished eating. The ambiance is what one would expect from a ramen restaurant. The ramen was very good and I liked the chicken katsu curry. read more

So glad we drove from north shore to Kailua for Ayame! Everything we had was delicious! The food is high quality for a good price. The portions were big! We both had leftovers, which we are going to enjoy tomorrow! It was a slow night, so we got to talk to the staff a bit. My wife was really happy they had Pokemon cards for sale! read more

Ayame is our favorite restaurant!! We almost always get the tonkatsu supreme special since it's such a great deal, but honestly all of the food here is so delicious. Will is so friendly and the service is excellent. Although we will be moving, we will definitely be coming back to eat here! read more

Called to order takeout and phone was answered promptly and order was taken quickly. Food was ready in 10-15 min. Definitely great for a quick meal! Pickup was fast and the checkout transaction was quick and friendly. I ordered the chair shiu combo with a side of gyoza (6 piece). There was so much chicken katsu and fried rice! Definitely impressed with the portion size. I forgot to take a picture as I was making a plate of the chicken katsu and fried rice but you can see how much is given. This is enough to feed 2-3 people! The chicken katsu was crispy and juicy. The curry had a good flavor as well. The gyoza was super flavorful and the sauce was just right. Super stuffed after this meal! I'll definitely be back the next time I'm craving this! read more

The gyoza and friend rice were amazing!!! I like a little more spice in my ramen and I wasn't exactly sure what to add to it from the table to make it taste spicier, but the ramen was also yummy! I would definitely come back!! Can't wait to try the curry too since it looked delicious! read more

Kimchee mixed plate. Another great menu item! Somehow in my many visits to this great restaurant, I didn't see this Kimchee Mixed Plate! There were generous portions of each item, including the kim chee which was delicious with just the right amount of spiciness. I love the fried rice here. It has a good amount of meat and egg in it - very flavorful. The gyoza here is my favorite of all the restaurants I frequent. Chicken Katsu is well made-not oily and again, a generous portion. There are 2 layers of katsu on the plate I have pictured. read more

Small restaurant in shopping center. Service was good. Plenty of seats and was not packed when I went. I had gyozas and the Katsu chicken curry wish based off other reviews was their most popular dish. The gyozas were same as you would get anywhere else. The Chicken was crispy and tasted good. The curry taste is ok, it's was good but not as flavorful as I expected from the reviews. All in all a good meal but can't say I'd go out of my way for it. read more

First time patrons @ this Curry & Ramen Restaurant. Our server was very pleasant & accommodating. We ordered Kim Chee Fried rice, 6 pieces of Gozaya & Mochico Chicken Curry. Rice came out first a good amount on a round plate. Taste was all good, as you could taste the Kim Chee pieces, char sui , green onions, rice was cooked in a wok , so temperate was hot! The Mochiko chicken & Curry was spot on! Delicious Japanese brown curry over white rice ! Yum!! Gozaya was nice and brown on the outside & soft inside. They had a chili sauce in oil & Japanese style red chili pepper on the table as condiments, asked our server if he had anything hotter, he said Sriracha, no thank you! Ian brought out two containers of Reaper & Red scorpion peppers, now those are hot! Enjoyed Ian's generosity & excellent customer service. Restaurant is clean & noticed a lot of take out carry boxes in the dining room.Open in 2000 this family eatery lacks storage space but as long as the food is good, they are doing a good job! read more

A place that does the basics as goods a you can possibly do. A chance encounter while walking aimlessly in Kaneohe. With the idea of getting a sandwich for lunch, I walked past Ayame and did a quick check on Yelp. I was encouraged by the many positive reviews. Reviews I agree with. The food: simple combo of gyoza and chicken katsu curry rice. It didn't take long to get my order. The flavors were good. The chicken cooked through, moist, not overcooked. The rice done right with that light chew, slight bounce. The service: Attentive and personal. I was listening to another group of patrons, who come back every week, ask the staff how his vacation went. It was a fairly long conversation only interrupted by the telephone. I was checked several times to make sure I was ok, and not just a passing ask. I felt welcome and I'm sure you'd too. read more

My go to spot for katsu on Oahu, truly some of the best. Great prices, portions and quick service.

I came here last night with my boyfriend to celebrate an overdue ruined birthday back in January. This place was well worth it. They had the combos which included ramen of different flavors of your choice. Along with sides depending on how much food you can finish. I ended up getting combo B which had ramen. I chose Shoyu. I also got the gyoza that comes with it and a curry plate. I chose the mochico chicken. Everything was so delicious. My boyfriend also got an appetizer which was the fried eggplant. So light in the batter. This was a good choice. I drank everything with a can of diet Coke. Service was good by our waitress. She was super nice. The guy was nice too. Parking is across the street. Highly recommend read more

The customer service is always above and beyond... just like the food! Their gyoza is fresh and homemade just like their wontons. Don't sleep on the kakiage (veggie fritters).

The chicken stew was a surprise. Chicken is not fried or sautéed. It's actually boiled or perhaps steamed. The curry was Flavorful and tasty but I had a first experience of the chicken cooked that way in a stew. This style would be great for those who are trying to watch their diet or have caloric restrictions but love curry. The service was casual as they were not busy and the restaurant clean but I hate seeing boxes evertw read more

The food here is very tasty and the portion size is very big too. The prices for their dishes are very reasonable and not too expensive.

Ayame Curry & Ramen is a Kaneohe staple that I grew up with. Surprisingly, despite being around for decades, they've stayed consistent and if anything are even better than before? Don't get me wrong, it's just that this time I noticed that I feel like their food went from "average" to "pretty dang good" over the years without me noticing. Like I would invite a friend or date for dinner here, not only my old last-minute family dinners. If that makes sense! lol My mom loves their shrimp fried rice and goes to order it to go regularly. When I'm on island and have a chance to go, I usually go for the combo with a small tonkotsu ramen and unagi don (has an additional charge), which also comes with gyoza. The portions are good and sometimes I end up taking leftovers home. Prices have gone up but so have all the restaurants since the pandemic. The staff are kind and friendly. The seating layout is open, fun, welcoming, and clean. We visited on a weekday evening and there were a pretty good number of people eating in there too. I'm glad to see Ayame is still doing well and wish them all the best! read more

Even though it wasn't all that spicy, it was very flavorful. The beef curry was soft and tender, the fried rice was well seasoned, and the gyoza was like icing on the cake.

The price is great, but the food leaves a lot to be desired. It's very oily. The service is friendly. The place is clean.

This place is so slept on! My friends and I get the combo B plate where you get gyoza, can choose between different rice plates (katsu chicken, tofu, fried chicken etc, ) and choice of different ramen soups, all for 20$! The chicken Katsu is fried perfectly, the gyoza and juicy and flavorful, and the ramen is great too. If you're looking for some delicious Japanese food this place is so worth it. read more

This place has been around since I was a kid, and it's always been comfort food for me. Service is usually fast and it tastes good as takeout too. It may be a bit basic, but it sure beats going into town. Nothing on the menu is bad. My personal faves are the mapo ramen and wonton ramen combo, but every once in a while something bigger like the shoyu combo hits the spot. The katsu and gyoza here are great, so I tend to recommend getting a combo to try them. Good variety at on a budget costs is the standout of here. read more

Located at the Windward City Shopping Center, this ramen shop is reasonable and the ramen is not bad. They have indoor seating available. Even if it was on a weekend, it wasn't too busy, since the whole shopping center wasn't busy. I had a hard time choosing what I wanted since they have a wide selection of ramen and plates. Mini mapo tofu ramen combo - 4 stars - for only $13.50, I had a little smaller than regular sized bowl of ramen in mapo tofu. The Mapo Tofu was flavorful even if it was very liquidy. It comes with 4 gyoza, and it was just enough to make me full and satisfied. I'd eat this again. Chicken Katsu special - 3.5 stars - for only $12.95, they gave a good amount of Katsu and rice, but the curry was a bit watery as well. The curry taste was the usual as other take out plate lunch restaurants, but just a tinge less flavor. Service - 4 stars - friendly and food arrived quickly, felt like more of a chinese style restaurant that sells local plates. Lots of parking since it is in Windward City. read more

Tried this place for the first time and wasn't disappointed. I had the Chicken Katsu Curry Rice and my wife had the Shrimp Tempura Curry Rice. We both had mini plates that was pretty filling. We thought they gave a lot considering they were mini plates and takeout. Usually takeout plates are kinda small. My wife was surprised that she had three good size shrimps and my plate was full of Chicken Katsu. The curry was put in separate bowls which we felt was good so that the rest of the plate didn't get soggy. I would definitely visit this place again!! Sorry but we ate our lunch before I could take a picture So ono!! read more
