Cagami Ramen - Beef ramen with wantons - Ramen Near Me - Camarillo, California

Cute little ramen shop next to The Habit. It was empty other than a couple about to leave when mom and I decided to grab lunch while waiting for an appointment nearby. The waiter was super friendly and helpful explaining the specials menu. We both got Tonkotsu. I got a classic tonkotsu subbing the pork for tofu and minus the seaweed. Mom got a tonkotsu with wonton. I'm not sure why but they put two wonton in my bowl as well but I wasn't about to complain! Broth was very good. Tofu was cold and needed the broth for any flavor at all. Probably a touch too many green onions and woodear for my taste. Wonton are tasty. My lip swelled up and I didn't feel too good after eating. Mom on the other hand was fine. I probably can't return because I don't know what I was reacting to, but mom said she'd rather make the trek to Torrance for Hironori next time. read more

Cagami Ramen is a great pitstop on your 101 road trip! Our table got a bunch of ramen. I picked up the classic tonkatsu charsu ramen. There were a variety of noodles, and this one came with thin ramen noodle. They have a large selection of add-on, so I did corn, spicy oil and black garlic oil. Gotta have that black garlic oil when they offer it! So how did it stack against some of my favs? The ramen was a bit too thin and lacked some taste. Kind of a tangled mess. The charsu was a bit dry and also lacked taste, kinda tasted like water boiled pork. The broth was doing all the carrying for this bowl of ramen! It was especially good with all the addons. The table had other kinds of ramen. The thicker cut ramen seemed to be a lot better, reminded me thin udon. The curry and beef ramen both looked really good. Honestly, I would still recommend this place. Just avoid any bowls with thin cut ramen. The broth is the real star! read more

Cagami Ramen - Tonkatsu charsu ramen with corn addon. - Ramen Near Me - Camarillo, California

Not sure what people see in this place. The restaurant is small but that's not the issue. The issue is the food. The ramen is just not good, it lacks any real flavor. I tried my best to add spices and sauces to the broth but nothing was saving it. The noodles for me are too thick and don't absorb any of the broth. The meat was bland that came with it too. We had ordered a fried wonton appetizer and that came out way after our ramen. To make matters worse it was burnt, way overcooked. The only good experience was the service. The people were nice and they also took off the wontons because they agreed it was burnt. I've attached a picture of the wontons so you can see what I'm saying. Won't be coming back here. read more

Attentive service. Big portion! The shoyu ramen is my favorite. Not salty or oily at all. The soup base is chicken and mushroom soup. I also pick chicken over pork. Inside of the restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. This restaurant is located inside a strip mall and next to habit burger. read more

HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED IN THE SERVICE. My husband, child & I walked in at 645, with half the restaurant was empty and everyone already eating. As we ordered, 4 couples came in. & everyone got their food before us. When my husband got up to ask them & they said, "it because you ordered a beer". There should be no reason why the took over 45 minutes to service us 2 bowls of Ramon (WITH NO ADD ON'S or MODIFICATIONS). Not to mention the beer that was served to us was completely warm because their tap wasn't working properly. NOT COMING BACK. Not worth my time and apparently I'm not worth theirs. read more

I would have been better off with some cheap dry ramen from the store. It was terrible, order took forever and super expensive. They gipped me on the extra pork, for my curry ramen, the noodles were all globbed at the bottom, sauce was wayy too strong, gave me extra eggs that I did not order and my wife's Ksra-miso tasted like dish water. Like we say in French: BEUUURRK!! read more

Amazing, when I first had a sip of the soup I almost started crying because it was so delicious. Even a day later I can still taste it in the back of my mouth from memory. The parking lot has tons of Tesla chargers, but also a lot of space for normal cars. The store is small and on President's Day, was unfortunately manned by one server who was turning around tables with competitive speed. He apologized that they usually aren't understaffed, but we really didn't wait long. They have 2 vegetarian meat options, a kid's option, and a few nice looking sides. But these noodles are loaded. I got the shoyu ramen (I think? I somehow have forgotten already), there is such a delicate grilled flavor that somehow doesn't overpower the clear soup broth? I always disliked the shoyu's I've tried because they either lean too clean/you're drinking watered down soy sauce, or too fatty (it's a grease layer). This was so smooth, so umami, I drank all the soup before even reaching the noodles and meat. Which were also even better?!? The noodles had a bouncy chew, the meat was soft and again. Didn't have the weird fatty flavor a lot of meats ramen places have, it was just so clean, soft, and flavorful. I cannot emphasize enough how delicious this place is. I tried the tan tan ramen my friend had and I didn't enjoy it too much, but she really liked it too. There's also soy sauce, chili oil, and pickled ginger (?) at every table to adjust flavors if you'd like. Definitely a favorite! read more

Cagami was my to go spot for Ramen for quiet sometime. It has been a bit since I been back. I came in on a Monday with my kids. Menu and everything the same, but it did seem outdated. Menu was old, sticky, the booths seats were all worn out, I wore shorts, so all I felt was the cracked seats. Not comfortable at all. I ordered their signature Ramen, I didn't pay much attention to what was in it, but I figured it should at least have an egg. Nope. For $18.50, it was just bean sprouts, green onion, 2 piece of protein and black mushrooms. Soup flavor was ok, I didn't like my ramen came out warm. My son for chicken katsu and he said it was chewy and not seasoned. $4.50' for a can of soda and $6 for ramune was also a bit pricy. I know everything has gone up in price but damn. $4.50 for a can of soda is a bit harsh. read more

I was driving over to camarillo to hang out with a local friend there but didn't plan out what we would eat. We voted quickly in the car for ramen since we had 3 kids and figured noodles are the way. Found this place on yelp and called to order over the phone without researching much. Just said "tonkatsu ramen, fried chicken (karaage), veggie ramen and need a chicken teriyaki bowl." They actually don't make a chicken bowl here but said they'll whip something up on the spot. Picked up and drove over to the friend's house. Unpacked the food. Wow the tonkatsu broth is amazing and my kid totally gobbled up the noodles. The best surprise was the veggie ramen-- just didn't expect so much flavor and action going on with this dish. A little kick, fake minced meat, ground walnuts, great noodles... this is a pretty thoughtful dish for the vegan here. We all loved everything. Omg highly recommend you try this place. We'll be back! read more

First visit. I saw all these positive reviews so decided to try it out with coworkers. I ordered the Old School and it was very tasty. The price is also reasonable. The lady that helped us was very friendly and efficient. The place is small and cozy. It is located in a mini mall and a bit difficult to find from the parking lot. It is between Habit Burger and Urbane Cafe. It is facing the street and that is why you cannot see it from the parking lot. Once you find it, it is worth it. read more

The shoyu ramen comes with a thicker noodle than the tonkatsu. I like the chewy texture and the lightness of the chicken/mushroom broth. The karage chicken was also lightly fried and a nice hearty appetizer. read more

Cagami Ramen had the best broth I've ever had in Ramen. I got the Tonkotsu Ramen and it was fantastic! The broth was so silky and flavorful. The person I was with also felt like this was exceptional broth. All the other ingredients were good too, but I just can't get over how good that broth was. This is a small shop with a coozy old school Japanese feel. Service was very good and we felt completely welcomed. read more

My wife and I are big ramen fans and have tried countless spots across Los Angeles, as well as many bowls during trips to Japan. Unfortunately, this was the least flavorful ramen we've experienced. The broth tasted more like basic chicken noodle soup than traditional ramen, lacking the depth and richness we were expecting. You also have to pay an extra $2.50 for spicy oil, and even with it added, the dish didn't improve in any noticeable way. With so many excellent ramen options available, I'd recommend trying another spot if you can. read more

Our 3yr old daughter told us she wanted ramen for her bday and chose Cagami Ramen restaurant for its extensive mostly ramen menu. My wife and I were super happy to learn that they had a "kids ramen" choice on the menu...the bowl, basic flavor and portions were just right for our little one...perhaps suitable for the average 2-8yr old, I think. The adults in our group ordered, "Tonkotus chashu wonton ramen", "Beef Ramen" and "Curry Ramen"...all delicious and full of flavor. We also order gyoza and pork katsu both of which were a favorite for my older daughter, saying specifically the pork katsu being the best she's had in forever. Lot to like here food wise and definately worth revisiting in the future. A couple of downsides; the service is slow and imprecise...our order of beef ramen( for older daughter took a long time to arrive), luckily she munched on the katsu in the meantime. We're teaching our kids that it's bad manners to eat when someone at your table doesn't have their food/meal...I'm not sure my wife and I were a good example in this case but if the pork katsu wasn't available for my oldest daughter to eat, I would have complained vigorously...my daughter waited over 10mins for her beef ramen....not surprisingly my wife and I had none of the katsu (as an appetizer) and my daughter ended up taking most of the beef ramen home. If you're a person who likes exacting service, where your entire party eats at the same time...the service here may not make you happy. Lastly, it's a small place...structured like a (former ) sushi bar with single seat stools, a few booths and tables...a group of 6 or more would struggle to eat together here....anything can be Jerry-rigged but for bigger groups...best to go somewhere else. Ultimately, the food/ramen here is the very good and that more anything is the reason to give them a try. read more

Just visited for take out. Service was good and so was the food. I had the Salmon Bowl. Plenty to eat, very tasty, and the price was right. I enjoy dining in, during their slower hours. They have a couple of tables outside, if that's your preference. You won't be disappointed. read more

It was difficult for me to find, because of the nearby construction, but well worth it. I ordered the veggie ramen and the cheesecake to go. Very good and good the next day too. The Ramen was super flavorful. I got it medium. The cheesecake comes as 2 slices. So I got matcha and yuzu. I enjoyed the citrus flavor of the yuzu. And the matcha was pretty good too. I like the setup. A very neat and somewhat urban environment. The guy who took my order was very accommodating and thorough. But wasn't in a rush at all. Incredibly informative and succinct. It was a positive experience. I would, for sure, recommend this place. read more

Cagami Ramen - Curry Ramen with Pork - Ramen Near Me - Camarillo, California

Looking for place to eat on the way back to LA, saw decent reviews so gave them a try. The place is packed inside so we took the patio seating. My son ordered the ramen but I wasn't feeling ramen so ordered the Pork Katsu set, but it doesn't include rice so have to order as extra. The Katsu portion is decent but definitely a little bit smaller for the price. First piece I see mostly fat and the breading fell off right away, which is not a good sign. Second piece still mostly fat and breading fell off on both sides. Then halfway through eating rice, I get hard rice like dried hard rice. I mean a Japanese restaurant that can't cook/serve deep fried dishes/rice is pretty bad in my opinion. The only saving grace is their ramen is much better than the Katsu and rice. It's a Hard pass next time. read more

Was so good just came back from Japan 2 weeks ago, was invited here. They exceeded the expectations I had in the flavors. The old traditional tonkatsu ramen was my favorite from the bowls we chose, service and ambience was good too. read more

Food is excellent. Broth is flavorful and portions are great. Service is great as well. You won't be disappointed if looking for good ramen.

If you come to this spot, only get the ramen off the menu and sit at the bar. The ramen noodles and broth are good, skimpy on the toppings but satisfying overall. Anything outside of this recommendation and you're going to be disappointed. We sat at the booth and it was torn and held in place with tape. It wasn't smooth to sit on and it really needs to be replaced. Then we ordered two appetizers that were both overcooked. The skin on the wonton dumplings came off and if you went to pick one up, it slide off into a slimy mess. The shrimp tempura was too crunchy and burnt because it was too well done. My hubby got the beef ramen and he said it was gross. He picked this ramen because there was a picture of it on the wall and he thought it must be good. When it came out, it looked like it tasted, gross, with fat on every piece of meat and the broth was chicken stock that tasted like it came out from a box. My kara miso ramen on the otherhand was good, off the menu, and satisfied a craving but it wasn't the best. This was the second time here, first time was like 6 years ago and I remembered it being amazing. Everything added up and was expensive for what I got. I won't be coming anytime soon. The booth is run down, the bar area is more enjoyable, service was good, place was packed around noon, and parking was terrible but you can manage. read more

Once you have tasted good ramen you know all ramen is not the same as great ramen. What we loved was attention to including high quality vegetables with homemade noodles. Broth was fabulous. Service was wonderful. Agree that inflation drives up cost but given this - I feel the cost is reasonable and not over priced. I would highly recommend this place. And I have never met the owner this is my honest opinion. read more

Everything in my previous review still stands; good food, good service, but ... ...like all places, prices are up. It is SOOOOOO expensive now! Normally, a dinner for 2 for us is around $35ish (2 bowls of ramen & 2 drinks). Now, with the addition of 1 appetizer, our bill was $70ish. Sadly because of the prices, our frequent to this restaurant will only be for special occasions. read more
