This ramen place was the perfect meal on the last day of the Kona low rain. We arrived at 5:15 p.m. on a Thursday and there were only a few people in the restaurant. An hour later there was a line out the door. We ordered the beef brisket ramen and gyoza it was delicious! The ramen broth was creamy and the noodles were cooked to perfection. We are definitely coming back! read more

I went on a weekday at 11am. Ordered their best seller - Beefy Wild Ramen. It was excellent!! Broth was creamy and mild (but very flavorful). Noodles were perfectly cooked. The beef looked like it would be chewy but it was surprisingly tender ("fall off the bone" tender without the bone). Half of a hard boiled egg was included. Price was about $18 for a regular bowl (there's also a mini size for a lower cost). I would definitely order this again (would also like to try other items). I was able to make reservations via Yelp. Restaurant was pretty empty at 11am (they open at 11am) but got more crowded at noon. Service was very good - wait staff was very attentive. Parking is free and convenient (Ward Center parking structure). I highly recommend this place. read more

Kamitoku Ramen - Ward Center - Beefy Wild Ramen (regular size). Excellent! - Ramen Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

TL;DR Seabura Ramen = ONO (!!!) Damn good ramen. ----- My out-of-town friend and his family were visiting O'ahu and invited me to lunch. They decided on Kamitoku Ramen after catching a movie nearby. Unfortunately, I had ramen for lunch the day before, but I sucked it up and joined them so I could catch up with my friend. And I'm so glad I did, because Kamitoku Ramen is fantastic! I ordered the Seabura ramen, which has officially taken the throne as my favorite bowl of ramen on the island. It was so damn good! The beef-based broth is incredibly creamy and absolutely packed with umami. The noodles were the perfect balance of chewy and springy, and the toppings were awesome. I was especially a fan of the beef char siu and the beef fat bites. The whole dish was just a banger. The broth was unbelievably good. I finished the entire bowl, because I couldn't let that liquid gold to to waste. I can't wait to go back and try other dishes on the menu, including their gyoza and rice bowls. But I don't anticipate deviating from the Seabura ramen. It was too good not to order again. Go check it out! read more

Nice space with friendly and fast staff. The ramen however was unfortunately not great. Mine was kind of salty and creamy, but also kind of taste like old water? My egg was overcooked and cold in my luke warm soup. My friends ramen was better, so maybe I just ordered wrong. read more

Kamitoku Ramen - Ward Center - Ramen Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I'd say, welcome to my current favorite ramen place in Oahu. Not only the price is right but the authentic Japanese flavor of their ramen really takes me back to my Japan trip last year. I always had a great time dining here with some friends and family. Service was fast and their menu is not that extensive keeping me sane every time I order, lol. Keep in mind that this location only has few chairs to dine and it fills up pretty fast. Make sure to come earlier for your convenience. Here's what I've tried from them: - my favorite; no further explanation just ORDER THIS NOW - broth is shoyu light, way too light for me but still savory - savory and tasty - harmonious blend of crispiness and tangy sweet vinegar - perfectly made; perfect topping/side when eating ramen - ponzu on it makes everything this side dish really good - intensely flavored; so rich that it needs rice to absorb the oil on it - fried to perfection; meat not dry at all - savory and addicting; flavor blends perfectly - so good and perfect ending for your meal - intriguing yet I'm impressed; would order this again Overall the experience was exquisitely good. Love the food, love the interior and the vibe feels like I'm in Osaka ramen place. Will surely be back for the nth times. Mahalo for reading and happy juandering fellow Yeeps. read more

Kamitoku Ramen - Ward Center - Ramen Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The ramen here is unique because it's made with beef bones instead of pork. I love the beefy richness of the broth, and the meat is super tender and flavorful. My favorite is the Beefy Wild because it's perfectly balanced. I also tried the Seabura, which was still very good and definitely more rich and salty, but I wasn't a fan of the fatty chunks in the broth and the piece of meat was a bit too fatty for my taste. The noodles are Sun Noodles, not homemade, but still solid. They're thin and have a slight sweetness to them. Service is just okay, but the restaurant itself is nice and cozy, which makes it a chill spot to eat. read more

The broths are so tasty. The ramen here is packed with beefy fatty flavor. Sometimes the beef char siu gets tough though; the cubed one is usually more tender. Pretty sure they used to be bigger though? At some point in 2025 the sizes got smaller. They also got rid of the king size ramen and the sui gyoza, which was great, is no longer available. They have a point system but it's kind of confusing. Bathroom in the mall. read more

Fantastic little place at Ward Center (original side). Limited seating but they take reservations. We arrived closer to 1pm, so our wait was only 15 minutes or so. Totally worth it. Amazing ramen. I had the spicy and it delivered as promised. Beef was so tender and broth was very rich. Fried gyozo was great. Prices are very reasonable. Service is quick and efficient. Park at Ward or the theater. read more

Kamitoku Ramen - Ward Center - Beefy Spicy. Amazing. - Ramen Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This is a cute little ramen spot that has fun deco~! It's a small restaurant but it's enough since ramen is a pretty fast meal. We got the beefy wild small - the ramen is good. The most dominant flavor was the crispy garlic bits. Our kid liked it too! It tasted like a beefy miso~ My husband got the seabura and it was also tasty. If I'm being completely honest, I didn't think there was much of a taste difference that'd I'd have preferred one over the other. Overall, cute place. They had high chairs but no locking mechanism for the seatbelts to keep the kid in place. We went at 5pm on Monday and got instantly seated. Service was lovely. read more

Located at Ward Center, parking in the parking structure , entrance is on Auahi St., no bathroom in the restaurant but there is one in Ward Center. We were greeted right away and seated at a table separated by wooden/acrylic partitions. It has about 8/4 top tables a small counter seating for 3 people facing the street so you can people watch and a center counter which can accommodate 12 people. Their ramen is beef base broth. We ordered the Beef Gyoza Namban, 5 pieces, which is topped with green onions, sweet vinegar shoyu & tartar sauce. It was good, there was a little too much tartar sauce to my liking but I just scraped it off. Also ordered the Seabura Ramen, it had a creamy beef broth, egg, garlic , green onions and a beef char siu, it was tasty and comforting. My hubby had the lunch special which was a small bowl of the ramen and he ordered the beef fried rice, which was very good and came with a side of kimchi. Great place for a quick, comforting bite to eat! read more

Fast and friendly!! Stopped in for lunch and luckily they weren't too busy yet. Signed in at the front entrance and were seated right away. Menus and ice water came out promptly. My friend had a coughing fit and asked the male server for hot water, but we were told they don't have any... hmmm, REALLY? Odd, but we moved on. We both ordered the lunch combos. I went with the Beef Wild combo with fried gyoza, while my friend chose the Tan Tan ramen with sui gyoza. If you love a deep, rich beef flavor, the Beefy Wild is exactly what you want--super creamy, full-bodied broth, and perfectly al-dente ramen noodles that hold up beautifully in the soup. My friend really enjoyed the Tan Tan ramen, which came with a spicy, creamy broth that had just the right kick. If you're looking for fast service and bold, flavorful ramen, Kamitoku delivers. By the time we were heading out, there was already a line forming outside--so go early! Definitely left wanting to come back and try more. read more

Wild Beast Ramen was the best ramen I have ever had EVER, even in Japan this would be a ten out of ten+ , the homemade kimchi was better than any kimchi I've ever had. I recommend this place over any Ramen restaurant on Island. I can't say enough about how much this ramen tasted better than a grilled steak and eating the kimchi every other bite refreshed the pallet , so every bite was out of this world. Love this place and so lucky it's our neighborhood ramen restaurant ‼ read more

Kamitoku serves up some seriously tasty ramen! They specialize in beef broth ramen, and you can really taste the depth and richness in every sip. I usually get the Seabura, which is super creamy, rich, and full of flavor. It's easily one of my favorites on the menu. The spicy beef gyoza is also a must try. We usually stop by before or after catching a movie, and it always hits the spot. Consistently satisfying food and friendly service make Kamitoku one of our go to ramen spots. read more

First timer at Kamitoku Ramen! It was the perfect cold rainy night for ramen and I was excited to check this place out. I wasn't expecting Kamitoku to be busy on a weeknight, but there was a wait of about 5-6 parties ahead of us. We didn't do any research prior but while there found out they take reservations, so I will definitely do that on my next visit. For dinner, I ordered the regular gyoza and the tan tan ramen. The gyoza was really crispy and had a unique beef flavor. My tan tan was also pretty good but I'm not sure I liked the broth--I'll probably try a different ramen on my next visit. The broth tasted more like taco seasoning than traditional tan tan sesame flavor. Other than that no complaints! Great experience at Kamitoku Ramen. read more

Kamitoku Ramen - Ward Center - Ramen Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

February 2026 First time trying this place at Ward Centre. We went on a Saturday for lunch. We lucked out that there wasn't a long sign up list and we were seated within a few minutes. The place is small and quaint with some small tables and bar stools on a counter. They specialize in Gyu Kotsu, Beef Bone Ramen. Our server suggested the #1 Beef Ramen. I ordered a combo that came with a small ramen and I added a half egg. The broth was thick and the beef was melt in my mouth delicious. My lunch partner ordered a combo which included a large Beef Ramen and side Beef Stir Fry. We both enjoyed what we ordered. The service was great! read more

I had a big ramen craving and I wanted to treat my friend here for his belated birthday. We came here on a Sunday night around 6:30pm ish and there were 5 parties on the waitlist ahead of us. Thankfully it moved fast and we were seated within 15 mins I think. We both ordered the yuzu ramen and we shared the beef gyoza nanban which was really tasty! It was a fried beef gyoza with a white sauce that tasted and reminded me of cole slaw haha! It was good! Their yuzu ramen is so good too! The yuzu is light and fresh tasting. I wish their eggs were jammier but still good. They're located in Ward Centre next to Mian & Bao and the newly opened Cappy Claw (claw machine arcade). read more

Stopped by during Restaurant Week to try the Beefy Wild Ramen Set, which included a hearty bowl of ramen, five pieces of gyoza, and a drink--all for just $22. In today's dining scene, that kind of value is hard to come by! We arrived around 1:30 PM, just before their lunch closing time at 2:30 PM. Although the sign-in sheet had already been removed and we didn't have a reservation, the staff kindly accommodated us and seated us right away. Big kudos for the warm hospitality! The ramen itself was flavorful with a satisfying kick--perfect for those who enjoy a touch of spice. The gyoza were crisp and savory, a great complement to the noodles. The included drink, called 'First Love', was a fun surprise: a mix of strawberry syrup and Calpico, served with a cute pocky stick on the side. Sweet & refreshing! I'll definitely be back! This ramen is just what you need in cooler weather. Great food, great value, and a welcoming vibe! read more

I stopped by Kamitoku at Ward Village for dinner and, as always, how good everything was. The ramen, Marina, was the star -- the broth was light yet full of flavor, not too salty, and perfectly balanced. The noodles had just the right chew, and the slice of chashu was tender with a nice sear. The soft-boiled egg was seasoned well and added a nice richness to the bowl. For sides, I tried the spicy takoyaki, which came crispy on the outside and creamy inside, topped with mayo, green onions, and crunchy chili bits -- one of the better ones I've had on Oʻahu! The ajitama eggs in chili oil were also delicious -- a bit spicy, savory, and super flavorful. To finish off, dessert was a sweet -- a scoop of vanilla ice cream drizzled with honey and sprinkled with cinnamon, served with a cinnamon churro on the side. It was simple but satisfying -- warm, cold, and perfectly comforting. I like this place. read more

My friend and I were Yelping our way through dinner options after some time apart (gotta love the 30s scheduling struggle). A little scrolling plus stomach logic reminded me I'd been here before and liked it - case closed. Reservations are an option, but we walked in and got seated right away: no wait, no fuss, just pure ramen-tic vibes between me and the noodles. Location: Facing Auahi St, right next to Mian & Bao and across from the Anaha building. Parking: Not the restaurant's fault, but the lot behind it is narrow, low, and unforgiving (free, at least!). My compact car had to suck in its mechanical guts just to squeeze into a stall. Lifted trucks? You'll need divine intervention and some serious real-life Tetris skills. Safe to say the designer missed the Hawaii = Tacoma country memo. Atmosphere: Retro, eclectic izakaya vibes with a slightly off-script design. Tight quarters, lively energy, and a playlist that sounded like my Spotify on shuffle. Food: My friend tried the Beefy Seabura, I went with the Beefy Wild. The broth? Incredible - milky, rich, and soul-warming. The beef? Basically a jaw workout - impossible to chew through, and my friend had the same issue. In hindsight, I should've flagged it to the staff, but I was too busy enjoying the other 70-80% of the bowl. Drinks: Just water for us since ramen was the star. Beyond the usual soft drinks and booze, the cocktail list had a quirky twist - each one named after a Japanese city pop track. Service: Our waiter was attentive and on point - no complaints here. Price: Around $15 for my ramen - reasonable, though tough to swallow (literally) when the beef wasn't. Would I return? Tentatively yes. If the beef pulls the same stunt again, I'll be sticking to safer picks. read more

Kamitoku Ramen - Ward Center - I wish I could say I was joking when I tried using my chopsticks in hopes of tearing the meat....cant even bite into it - Ramen Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Convenient location in Ward Center, very nice servers, fun and casual ambiance. Cheap and fun cocktails, so I could see this as a fun option for a little outing with friends! The yuzu cocktail was only $6 and very yummy. The house-made kimchi was a standout for our group, which came with a hefty portion of the flavorful side. The gyoza was also well seasoned and well-packed with filling, although the skin was a bit tough and lackluster. I appreciated the light batter on the fried squid. The flavors were all good, while the squid itself had a lot of chew. I liked it but would definitely consider it tough. I quite liked the tsukemen! The broth was great. Super flavorful, a bit smoky? Not overly oil, but still rich. The noodles were good as well. However, the piece of meat on the tsukemen was really dry and flavorless. Honestly, the dish would be better without it. My group also tried the Seabura ramen. If you like a very rich, almost cheesy ramen broth, this is for you. Not my cup of tea, but it was well done. read more

Easily one of my my most favorite places to eat when I'm crazing something that will feel like a warm hug. The ramen here is so good, this is a repeat spot for my friends and me. There can be a wait, so take advantage of Yelp Reservations and make them a day ahead for your dining ease. If not, there is a clipboard outside for you to sign in. The list moves pretty quickly and there are seats outside to wait if it's totally full inside. As soon as you are seated, the staff is quick to give you water and a menu, but if you had to wait, there is a courtesy menu outside so you are ready. Since I go here all the time, I do often start with with the Gyoza Sui (which can only be eaten dine-in, so sorry for those who rely on takeaway). Honestly, it's been hit or miss with this one. It's full of flavor, but sometimes it just tastes better than others, so just get it every time . As for my meal, I always go for the yuzu ramen which is a little lighter than the usual ramen flavors you may be used to. Even with the lighter broth, the ramen is very filling and very satisfying. On this particular visit, I went with a friend who has the tsukemen that he polished off. He described the broth to be very creamy and the spice was perfect. If ramen isn't for you, the menu is quite vast and there will surely be something to your liking. The location is convenient to the Ward area and offers free parking behind the restaurant or even across the street near Whole Foods. And if you love the place, you can even get some merch! read more

After a busy morning shopping at Ward we decided to stop by Kamitoku for a lunch break. There was no wait at 11:30 on a weekday and we were immediately seated in the small, cozy restaurant. Service is friendly and attentive, the workers were kind enough to let us store our baby stroller in the back while we ate. The lunch special combos are a great deal and come with your choice of ramen and appetizer. The Seabura ramen was creamy and filling featuring big chunks of fatty meat, an egg, and thick noodles. We tried the Chasiu Bowl and the Beef Sui Gyoza appetizers and both were delicious! It started to get busy as we were leaving so try to make reservations if you're stopping by on a weekend as the restaurant is pretty small! read more

Wasn't feel too good yesterday and was craving ramen. Kamitoku was listed on Uber Eats and I remember hearing great things so I decided to give it a shot. Based on previous reviews I went with the Seabura ramen and added an extra slice of brisket. It arrived quick with broth separated from fixins. I was kinda hoping there'd be more broth although it was an ample amount for the noodles, just wish I ordered a side for the sore throat. The flavor was delicious. The brisket was so tender and tasty. Noodles were soaked to perfect. The egg firm yet jammy. It really was a great bowl of ramen. I'm definitely looking forward to trying more menu items. read more

I really loved my last experience here! I got the tsukemen, and it was really flavorful! I don't know if I like beef broth more than pork broth, but it was good! I liked the fried rice, too.

I don't see beef broth ramen all that often so this was a pleasant and satisfying change of pace.

The service was fast and although there were a few parties ahead of us on the waiting list, we were seated in a short amount of time. A busy restaurant for good reason and I didn't realize they were also the place that has the mega sized ramen bowl so I want to try that out another time.
