Both ramens were delightful, specially for the Aspen weather. Ordering was fast and simple. Small place but outside seating is available. Staff was nice and served quickly. Coconut Curry took the award. Tokyo Tonkotsu was tasty too but the coconut curry flavor was unmatched. *not pictured* Pork Soup Dumplings 9/10! Great flavor only thing I'd say... more soup lol read more

The Ramen here was amazing! On a rainy night, it was the perfect meal. We tried a few, but agreed that their specialty curry ramen was superior! The staff were super friendly in their recommendations and the place was cute on the inside! read more

A new (to me) Aspen fav! I love the relaxed ambiance, and affordable prices compared to most Aspen places. The service was great, and they are opening a patio soon (if not already, we visited in May). Will definitely be back because I dream about the Philly cheesesteak dumplings! read more

Jimoto Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Aspen, Colorado

Look, I'm going to start with the good. The ramen itself is a 5:5 and I would definitely come back to get ramen if I'm craving it in Aspen. With that said, you get Aspen prices and the upcharge you for everything that isn't up charged outside Aspen. But all that is fine. I would still give this place a 5 for the above. But that is not where this review ends... I knocked 2 stars because the staff and manager have smoked one too many js and their stupidity level is on record high levels. I asked if I could get some salmon with a side of rice and soy sauce for my 4 year old. They did not listen. They instead brought out 2 salmon hand rolls with sriracha. Wtf. Are you stupid? I also asked if there was egg in their soup dumplings and THE MANAGER had the most snow bum response, "idk, they come out of a box...". Well why don't you walk your stupid ass to the back and read the box to find out. I didn't ask about anything else because I could tell they had fried their brains to uselessness. Although they may be some of the most stupid people I have met, they were also very friendly. read more

Food was great! Service was excellent and manager was informative as this is my first time in Aspen. Place was cozy and comfortable read more

Jimoto Ramen - Tokyo style ramen | Philly cheesesteak gyoza - Ramen Near Me - Aspen, Colorado

This is an awesome more casual option in Aspen. Decor is quaint and eclectic and more local. They take typical dishes you see in the US like poke and ramen but make them much fresher and with more interesting flavors. The portions were quite large as well. For drinks I definitely recommend having the staff recommend sake selection. I'm going to make this a go-to spot for whenever I'm in Aspen. read more

Tried this place when visiting Aspen for work. Walk up ordering at the bar and the gentleman was rude. Ordered 2 different gyozas: Philly cheesesteak and spicy pork $16 each for 4 gyozas. Also got 2 bowls of ramen: tonkatsu one with hot chili bomb and one regular with ajitama. Each bowl $27 with each add on $2 a piece; drinks: Diet Coke and water. Total was $110. Open seating with long tables so you might share with others. Found a cozy spot for 2. Ramen arrived before the gyoza. Very underwhelming: broth was just ok, noodles just ok, chatsu pork was quite tasty but the stand out the ajitama. Had so much flavor and was cooked to perfection, with the yolk resembling gel. Quite possibly the best ajitama we ever had. When gyozas did arrive the were not hot but took long. Dough felt super chewy, like a little raw. Other than that shin ramen made at home is better and much better value. This place is underwhelming and overpriced. Looks can be deceiving read more

Decent ramen spot. They have just a couple things on the menu: ramen and dumplings, but both are delicious. The menu itself doesn't mention prices because they vary but happy hour which ends around 5pm ramen is $15 and dumplings are also $15 but it's BOGO. Overall casual dining, recommend if you're looking for something filling and affordable. read more

I would say it's not the best ramen, but it's good for Aspen. I ordered the vegetarian ramen and came in big bowl with noodles, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, tofu, bean sprouts, corns and garnished in sesame seeds. The broth was good and it's really fills you up. My friend ordered the taco sashimi it was good too. But the dumplings were way too small for the price. Ambiance was very casual, cool music and plenty magazines to read from playboy magazines to living in Japan book. Service was good and overall it was good. read more

We were very excited to try Jimoto Ramen while visiting Aspen. We were first drawn to coming here because they had great reviews. When we approached the restaurant, a very nice waiter greeted us and asked and immediately made us feel more than welcome. We started with an order of Spicy Pork Gyoza. They were spicy pork dumplings that were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and packed full of flavor. I could've eaten several orders! We ordered the Tokoyo Style Tonkotsu and the Mountain Miso. Both were very good if you like ramen. They even made our daughters their own ramen that only had chicken in it. The menu is very limited which made it easy to decide what we wanted to eat. They have indoor and outdoor seating and even have some very comfy chairs to enjoy if you're not looking to sit at a proper lunch/dinner table. The entire restaurant was very clean, service was top notch and the food didn't disappoint. Be sure to check them out while you're in Aspen. read more

This place f**ks. Seriously shocked to find an A grade ramen restaurant in aspen. Ramen was perfect. I cannot find a fault, except that I wasn't hungry enough to eat two. I got the pork tonkatsu ramen. Pork was fantastic. Getting a double serving next time. Philadelphia dumpling was surprisingly good, felt more like Gyoza. Overall love this place and will be coming back. Price was very reasonable for Aspen. You might consider it expensive if you've only had cup of ramen. read more

The ramen is SO good, such a good local spot and so nice to have somewhere more casual but delicious.

It's a cool place to have a bowl of ramen but the food is mediocre. The lady at the ordering counter was friendly and nice, apologized for a sake that they did not have at the time, suggested another. read more

broth was thin. not much flavor. had way better. too overpriced for the taste of the ramen. wish there was more toppings as well.

It is a great spot! The location is awesome and the service is friendly! Tasty food and nice ambiance!

Discovered this spot while in Aspen and it is a find if you love Ramen. Very limited menu- basically ramen and dumplings. We had the pork soup dumplings, the cheesesteak dumplings, pork ramen and chicken ramen. All delicious! Really nice decor, vibe and service. Actually got the food to go and they did an excellent job assembling the ramen for optimal home enjoyment. Met the owner who was great. Not cheap, but then again, it's Aspen! read more

After reading great reviews we had the opposite experience for lunch. The coconut ramen was tasteless with nothing but egg noodles and flavorless broth. The poke came with seaweed salad and cucumber salad that was ok. The tuna had no taste or seasoning. The proces were high as expressed in Aspen. Service pleasant but sparse. Ambiance stark. Sorry read more

We loved the food so much. It was delicious. The ambiance, the decor, the music, the service was all fantastic. The only downside was that all the ramen was made with a pork base. It would be wonderful to have a truly vegan or an even a pescatarian option so more customers with varying diets could enjoy your delicious ramen. Having a vegan-ish option leave the vegan/pescatarian customers wanting. read more

The pork ramen was delicious! It's not easy to find a ramen place that does it so delicious. I literally didn't want my dish to finish :) we also had some sake. They have good variety of sake to select from. We will definitely be back for soup dumplings. The ambiance is so quaint and pretty. The gentleman who served us the ramen was polite and friendly. Overall, it was a great experience! They also offer to-go option if anyone needs! read more

Their hours state that they are open until 8 PM. I showed up at 2:30, paid $10 for parking out on the street then found out they don't open until 4 PM. Do not go by the hours listed on yelp. read more

Very good poke. Nice service. Very easy going atmosphere. Service is good and fast. Family friendly.

Very solid ramen at a very reasonable price for Aspen. Only real downside is not a lot of customization options.

Ramen was middling. At best. Not safe for kids-there is porn everywhere. Unclear what the owners are thinking.

This place is a wonderful addition to the Aspen community! Cool vibe and excellent food. I had the Tokyo ramen and it was amazing, best ramen in town! The dumplings were amazing, some classic flavors with some new fun styles like Philly cheese steak, surprising but just as yummy as everything else. The service was impeccable friendly and attentive! Highly recommend and will be back to try the poke! read more

If you'd like to pay $25 for noodles that were somehow mushy and undercooked at the same time AND feel ill for hours after, this is the place for you. I'd give 1 star but the ume flavored black vinegar served with the soup dumplings was very nice. read more

I have eaten here twice. Both times I had a great experience. The menu is simple and I appreciate that. The Ramen was great as were the dumplings and sauces. The staff is friendly and the service is quick. It has been busy both times I have visited. TJ, the manager, is fantastic. He is attentive to the customers needs, makes sure people have a timeline on their food, is quick to provide added service (making sure you have enough of your drinks, clean away the table, etc.) He is certain to greet you as you arrive and warmly say good bye and thank you as you leave. I see other reviews that mention that the Ramen is average - the service alone makes up for that if you find the Ramen average. I also think the pricing is affordable and not out of scope for what you get, especially up against general average pricing in Aspen. read more

Amazing food! Cheesesteak dumplings knocked my Sox off! Staff was friendly and so nice! Atmosphere is spot on, lots of local people hanging and chatting. The owner came by and was quite impressive, knows the Aspen food scene and has created a non-snobby really great place. Kudos Mr Bukac! read more

Awesome food, drinks and experience. Actual vegan ish options which is rare in these parts.

Wow, totally delicious tonkotsu ramen. (And I lived in Japan for a couple of years so I am picky about my ramen). They lightly grill the chashu pork belly, yum. Egg was perfect. Can't wait to try the miso ramen and soup dumplings next time. Love the interior and vibes, and that they offer a Bowl Club (discount ramen and beers) to support the locals. Takeout available. read more
