Black Garlic Tonkotsu
Eljay C.

I got the tonkatsu w/ a side of karrage. The service was great but the food was lacking some major flavor. If you've ever been to a ramen spot you'd be disappointed here. You could tell the broth wasn't marinated enough and the karrage didn't have much taste and was pretty oily.

Ordered soups dumplings, pho, & spicy tonkatsu ramen. Noodles were cooked perfectly & broth had good depth of flavors! Self order via kiosk & pick up service. Tables can get dirty if they're too busy but really good food! Deducting a star since bathrooms didnt have paper towels & water all over floor (safety concerns) & no diaper changing station (used bench outside of yogurt shop next door).

Tenderloin and brisket pho

Efficient ordering at kiosk was a nice surprise. Good, quick service. The food was pretty good, but needed a bit more seasoning. Overall a nice late lunch.

Ramen

We have been back a couple of times since my original review. The hiccups of the first time have been corrected and there is even a sign with clear instructions when you enter now. The food is always really good and prepared fresh. The drinks are crafted to perfection. You can tell that the team preparing the items cares about the quality. This is a new favorite spot and we will definitely be back!

We enjoyed I love Noods. I felt that everything was priced right. It was a clean restaurant. The staff was very friendly. The food was good. We will be back soon to try new items.

Ramen Mi-So-Hungry

Tonkatsu ramen

I have to say that I am so stoked that I love noods have come to the Eastgate area! There are so many fast food establishments in this area and not enough unique and mom and pop type of restaurants. Anywho, came here last night for dinner with a friend and we really enjoyed ourselves. My friend ordered the pho and I ordered the ramen. We're Vietnamese so I would say it looks as though the pho is actually very good. Very happy to say that I no longer have to drive 25 minutes for a bowl of pho! As for the ramen - The ramen was good but it's nothing amazing like I had in Japan lol but that's comparing apples to oranges obviously... But the ramen is still good and I would definitely come back here for that as well. I will be taking my husband here for dinner in the near future!

12/21/24. Getting lunch around Eastgate/Jungle Jim's on the weekend before Christmas can be stressful, but this place ruled. Great ordering system with kiosks/table numbers for quick and efficient service. I eat a lot of Ramen and this spicy miso bowl was incredibly flavorful and loved how the roast pork was cooked in it. The soup dumplings were great as well.

Tokyo Shoyu

Been meaning to try for weeks and finally stopped in for lunch. So good! Tokyo Shoyu with chicken was very flavorful and filling. Lot of emphasis on pork and many of their dishes which I'll try next time! Easy ordering at kiosk and not crowded at 1 pm on a Tuesday

Black Garlic Tonkotsu

We tired I Love Noods after visiting Jungle Jim's and was not disappointed! I grew up in Japan, so it's always great when I can find good ramen. We tried the Black Garlic Tonkotsu and it was so good! Service was great and fast.

The black garlic ramen was a hit! The dumplings were a little small for the $ though.

Food, service, and ambiance. Few more thoughts to post review, due to Yelp rule that 85 characters are required.

We decided to try Zundo Ramen & Donburi prior to a show at Memorial Hall. We arrived at 6 pm on a…read moreFriday. All seats at the bar were open, but we hoped to sit at a regular (not high-top) table. As it turned out there were a few options in the back. That said, it wasn't long before the place was packed. Our server Tyra was fantastic. Down to earth and helpful with recommendations. She made us feel welcome and comfortable. We started with Jumbo Ebi Shumai. Tyra asked if we wanted a fourth (the dish comes with three) so we wouldn't have to rock-paper-scissors for the third dumpling. I thought they were delicious. I loved the spicy mustard that came with them. I admit they had a slight fishy flavor. I mean it was shrimp and I enjoyed it. Mark is less of a fish fan in general. The dumplings didn't really hit the mark for him. If you like seafood and you like shrimp you should enjoy the Shumai. I opted for Tonkatsu Ramen - Ramen and thick creamy pork broth with roast pork, soft boiled egg, bamboo, wood ear mushroom, ginger and green onion. I added black garlic oil and did not go spicy at all. I thought it was very good and I ate literally every drop. Mark had Spicy Miso Ramen - Ramen and spicy creamy soybean paste pork broth with roast pork, soft boiled egg, bamboo, wood ear mushroom, and green onion. He said it was spicy, which was perfect for him. He also enjoyed his meal and finished every drop. We still had time to kill before the show so we opted for dessert. There were two options - Green Tea or Red Bean Ice Creams. Tyra recommended Red Bean and I'm glad she did. It was sweet with just the slightest crunch from the beans. It was a good size serving, hand dipped by Tyra. The proximity of Zundo to Memorial Hall or Music Hall makes it the perfect pre-show stop for dinner. We will definitely be back.

I ordered Tonkotsu and Mark had Miso Ramen. By the time we had our food, a few additional patrons stopped in as well as someone picking up carry out. Our ramen was delivered quickly. We both noticed the temperature of the ramen was lukewarm. Maybe a bit warmer, but definitely was not piping hot. We have not eaten at a ton of ramen restaurants in Cincinnati, but we had our fair share when we lived in California. I have to admit I've never seen ramen broth as white as the Tonkotsu. It caught me off guard. That said, it was pretty good. I would have given my meal 3 to 3.5 stars. Mark enjoyed the Miso Ramen very much. This is why I went with a four stars review overall. Staff were super nice. The place was clean. The bathroom was not super nice. It had a slight gas station bathroom vibe going on. The menu is pretty big. I hesitated to get appetizers because I knew the ramen would fill me up. For us, perhaps the best thing Rokaru Ramen has going for it is how close it is to us. I think we'll try it again sometime.
