This was a tough one. I love seeing the varying themed decor of ramen shops. This one was nice! I immediately got excited for the ramen. Service was efficient. After some review, I decided on a safe option; fried karaage and spicy miso ramen. Grabbed a couple Ramune for the road. The karaage was good. Not well seasoned but juicy and crispy. But we go to ramen shops for ramen. The miso broth didn't wow me. It seemed a bit bland, and I dunno... Greasy maybe??. Ingredients were as expected, though I think they might've went over board with the bean sprouts. It wasn't bad. I'm on the fence about a repeat visit. read more

Dinner here with some friends was a great time. Great service. Nice staff and waiters. Clean and casual. For apps, I ordered the chicken wings. They were delicious! Flavored nicely. Sauce was powerful and tasty. For my main entree, got the beef rice bowl. It was huge and I had some leftovers for the next day. Good portions of meat. For dessert, got 3 pieces of mochi- mango, strawberry vanilla. my favorite was the mango. they were all very refreshing given the heat outside. can't wait to come back and try more dishes. read more

Came on a weeknight. A few tables, not too busy. Menu is easy to understand. $14 for the basic ramen with char siu and pork belly as an option. Specialty ramen priced a little higher to $15+. I would suggest this to others in the area. read more

Had dinner here with a group and it was overall great! ordered the seafood udon and a side of dumplings. Both were fantastic. Lots of generous servings of seafood in the bowl, and the dumplings were cooked great. The service was also great! They ended up not having an item for someone else, and they gave a discount for the inconvenience. The place was rather small, but tables could be arranged for large groups. Very clean and with lots of natural lighting. Would come back! read more

I've lived around the corner from this place for 5 years and I should have tried it sooner! The restaurant is in an odd strip mall but it doesn't disappoint. The restaurant was clean, modern with a really cool dragon mural on the wall. The service was quick and friendly. Best of all the food: -Steam Buns with Pork Belly (5/5): 2nd fav item. The bun was pillow soft, the pork belly was tender and this was an overall flavor bomb. Added sriracha because we like spice and it was PERFECTO! -House salad (4/5): Cruchy veggies + sweet & tangy dressing made a great fresh bite. -Garlic Scented Edamame (5/5): FAV BITE. If you're a garlic lover, this is for you! Comes out hot, garlicky without being overly salty-PERFECTION! -Fried Squid legs (3/5): a little chewier then I would like. Also the big pieces made it hard to eat- tear it down then it's manageable. -Spicy Miso Ramen (4/5): Flavorful broth, pork belly was perfectly charred, egg was nicely cooked at a medium. Honestly could be more spicy but overall a great bowl of noodles! Will definitely come back. If you're in the area-- check it out! read more

As others have mentioned, wait times are terrible. 30+ minutes for the signature ichiro ramen. Had to ask the waiter multiple times where our orders were when we noticed patrons get their food which arrived AFTER us. Supposedly each bowl is made one by one but they didn't come out staggered so probably not one by one. The ramen soup lacked flavor and almost felt watered down. Not a thick bone broth at all. Only saving grace was the chili paste which they charged to have it on the side. Won't be back, won't recommend. read more

Ichiro Sapporo Ramen - good muah - Ramen Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Worst ramen I've ever had. I will not return or recommend. The ramen had no flavor and was super greasy. The gyoza was soggy and coming apart. When he brought our sake bottle over he just slammed it on the table with the glasses stacked and walked away. Didn't come back to check on us until after about 20 minutes and we had to flag him over to give us our check. The place didn't seem very clean. I'm not sure why this place has a high rating. read more

Shocked this place is in business with K Pop down the road. Friend wanted to try here. Skimpy chicken portions, flavorless.... The only thing with flavor was the egg which was delicious. 3 little chicken strips with zero flavor and overcooked. Can't recommend K pop enough after visiting this place. Most expensive than k pop and you charge $2 for more spice is HYSTERICAL. $19 for a this ramen is.... Sad. read more

Valentine's Day coworker luncheon! I recently tried restaurant-style ramen for the first time during a team lunch on Valentine's Day, organized by our manager. We decided to step out of our usual routine and explore something new together. I chose the beef ramen, upgraded with udon noodles, and added the soy garlic wings to my order. Initially, the broth lacked a distinct depth of flavor, so I enhanced it with a dash of sriracha hot sauce. Unfortunately, the seasoning on the wings--using both fish sauce and soy sauce--overpowered the garlic, resulting in a notably fishy, salty taste. Ultimately, nothing about the meal convinced me to recommend or revisit this establishment. On the upside, I did manage to try something different, which aligns with my goal for 2025. read more

My first time here and waiting time was horrible! Ramen was just so so. Not recommended.

Is this the same one that used to be on maple? Love the vibes in here. The music is good!! The service is good. Laid back and attentive workers. Give us some pretty good recommendations so we went with it. Seafood spicy miso was my choice. It was delicious and filling! We also ordered the spicy edamame and that was bomb!!!!! Pls get that! Glad it's close to work. Will definitely come back read more

If you're looking for authentic ramen flavor don't come here. You'd have a better shot at making Ramen at home... seriously Ramen noodles... plain. Ramen broth very mild flavor, Tonkutsu was not creamy, corn was old, pork belly again no flavor to it, just taste cooked. Reviews say egg was overcooked, welp it was so don't overlook that comment. DO NOT HAVE THE WATER! It literally taste like faucet water. Just go next door and have PHO! ‍ read more

My friend wanted ramen for lunch so we landed here. We started off with the chicken karaage and gyoza which were both lovely and we thoroughly enjoyed. I ordered the seafood ramen and my friend ordered the tonkotsu ramen. We both felt the flavor of the broth could've been richer and he did note it could've been spicer even with the side of spicy oil he had. Overall, it was an ok experience and we had good customer service. read more

My brother and I had a craving for ramen, and looked up spots nearby with good reviews. This spot is located in an unassuming strip mall. To be honest, I never would have even thought to eat here if it hadn't been for the high number of good reviews. I went with my go-to, the spicy miso ramen. It was surprisingly tasty! I didn't expect it to taste as good as it did. Thanks to the honest reviews, I was able to discover a place I would have otherwise never visited. My brother had the signature Ichiro bowl, and said it was delicious as well. I will absolutely come back again next time I find myself in the area. read more

The ramen here is incredibly flavorful and savory. I had the vegetarian ramen, and from the first bite, it was more flavorful than most places I've tried. My friend had the spicy tonkotsu ramen and said it was even more flavorful and rich. I also appreciated that they offered four different vegetarian options, which is a lot compared to other places. The overall experience was great: the place is cute, the service was fast and attentive, and the food was delicious! read more

The place has improved since moving from its old location on Maple. The ramen is now quite good. I had the Tan Tan Ramen and enjoyed it. Everyone else in my party had the Shoyu. Our chicken karage appetizer was good. Service was quick and friendly to our group, even while we lingered an hour after eating on a slow Friday evening. They split the check 4 ways. The interior is clean and simple. read more

Not hot temp wise. Luke warm spices did not blend in soup because low temp. This is kinda important was looking forward to Ramen but bit it sucked. Nice ambiance. Did I mention the soup was cold? Staff was ok with serving cold ramen read more

This was my first time here so I can only speak for my experience. I ordered the seafood ramen. It came out lukewarm. I tried to eat it until an ice cold fish cake went into my mouth and then i asked them to please change it out. Brought it back a little warmer, still not hot like soup should be. The noodles were stale. The broth was THICK probably because it was COLD and not hot. Also everything tasted gross. read more

This place has always been great, Bowl is massive and broth flavorful, Noodle texture is also amazing.

Superb Ramen! I had the Red Curry, sweet sauce and plenty of noodles and pork! Try the Octopus appetizers- excellent! My date had the Spicy Miso - brimming with noodles and three strips of pork belly and lots of umami flavor! A hidden gem for under $50. read more

i'm visiting in Dallas, and I wanted to try the udon. I ordered it on Monday night, the seafood udon, and it was great. The broth was very tasty lots of noodles and seafood. So I ordered it again on Wednesday night. This time I could barely drink the broth it was so salty, the noodles and the seafood were still good but I couldn't have the broth so I ate it on the side. when I was asked, do I recommend this business? It's hard to say. only maybe. they're too inconsistent for me to be comfortable to recommend it. read more

The music really set the tone for the ambiance when we walked in, loved it. The booth we were in was spacious enough for the 5 of us! Daniel & Juan our servers, did a great job w/their customer service--drinks filled, appetizers came out at a great time, and just overall great vibe! Appetizers were yumm! Ramen? The broth was flavorful and adding the spice bomb to it took it to the next level. As a spice lover, I would say it was not spicy at all. (2/5 spice level) Noodles were cooked jussssst right. Chicken was good but I would probs order pork next time. Overall, great first time experience! ^_^ read more

Casual ramen eatery with festive decor and ambience. The combo option was nice to add either karage, gyoza, or takoyaki for less than $5. However the portion of the karage seemed small with 3 pieces. It was tasty though! I ordered the spicy miso ramen and liked the spice level. The soft boiled egg was slightly overcooked, but the large portions of pork belly made up for it. Overall we enjoyed it and would come back for casual eats. read more

Ever since I have come to the DFW area, I have been on a quest to find the best ramen in Dallas. My litmus test is a tonkatsu ramen, and I have to say that Ichiro has the best one in the entire DFW area. Here are some of my comments on a couple of criteria I use to judge tonkatsu ramen: Criteria 1: Much be thick and fatty broth In terms of broth quality, it's not the best I've had compared to other places across the country, but it's acceptable and far better than other bland/diluted broths I've had at other places in the DFW. Criteria 2: Noodles are not overcooked and do a good job of grabbing the broth The noodles were cooked just right and do an above-average job at bringing the broth with each slurp. My only issue is that the noodle length is cut too short for my liking. Criteria 3: Toppings must be filling I'm not asking for a lot of toppings, but I really feel like other places are rationing. That is certainly not the case at Ichiro. Just look at how many Chashu pieces I got with a normal bowl. Criteria 4: Broth is given at just the right temperature. Shouldn't be too cold on presentation and not hot enough to give you 2nd-degree burns. Just a couple of points that I noticed when eating Ichiro ramen. It's definitely a place I go back to whenever I need a solid bowl of ramen. read more

I just wasn't as sick and I ate at a few places that day so couldn't pin point to which one it was. This time, I'm for sure it's this place. The broth is never hot enough and I think that's why I got sick read more
