I've been to this spot a few times and it's always a hit. I usually get the tonkutsu ramen which is always very filling and flavorful. The service is always spectacular as well. A must try!
When you put a peice of chicken in your mouth and it taste SPOILED. This is my 2nd or 3rd time ordering from here and I'm HIGHLY disappointed. SPOILED chicken is a PROBLEM.
Not bad, not outstanding either. Ngl the flavor is a bit disappointing. Contrary to its appearance, it doesn't have such a strong flavor in the broth nor does the garlic. Also serving a skinny piece of spoon that looks like it's gonna melt inside the soup is a terrible idea. However, it seems to be universal decision for all the restaurants in there as they also serve this kind of disposable spoons. The short rib is greasy, the deep frying didn't make it crispy but only oily. I just wish they can make the flavor stronger.
Located inside the Tokyo Kuma. It's a great place for Ramen. The menu gives you a variety of choices from soups to Rolls. The prices are reasonable and the portions are filling. The food is prepared to order with fresh ingredients. The food comes out fast and hot
Our go to place for the last couple years for our quick ramen fix. Decently price with a generous portion. Broth is not necessarily michelin but it's very good considering it's in a Chinese market food court. My favorite is the pork cutlet ramen. A rich bowl of ramen with all the classic toppings and a side of perfectly fried pork cutlet. A little mayo for dipping. My husband's go to is the rib ramen. Each order comes with two juicy fried pork ribs immersed in a bowl of goodness. I've seen some people order an extra rib but you'll definitely be full without. What I love about this place is the fact that it's obviously family owned and the chef does seem to care about what is produced. Every visit we can assume our orders will be consistent as our previous visits. Also that every dish comes with the classic toppings; sprouts, mushrooms, corn, bamboo, naruto, including half a soft boiled egg. Most places charge extra for any toppings which can add up. Overall a great place to satisfy your ramen craving. Especially if you're not trying to spend $20 for a bowl of ramen with no toppings.
I would highly recommend the Pork Rib Ramen! The ribs were the star of the meal. The Black Kumai ramen (with black garlic broth) had much better broth, so if they could make the Pork Rib ramen with black garlic broth, that would be 10 out of 5 stars! The ribs were quite salty but well-seasoned, which balanced out the less salty, less hearty broth it came with. Noodles were cooked perfectly and I'd definitely come back for the rib ramen. Annoyingly, they charge 50 cents for hot sauce, which isn't that spicy. :/
Fairly inexpensive place to go for some ramen. Located inside Jusgo Market. Kind of a smaller food court area. It's usually not very busy during the weekdays for lunch so if you don't want to go to the higher volume restaurants, this would be a nice option. They have a variety of ramen to choose from and allow additional toppings to be added. Staff is friendly and will assist those who are curious about the different menu items.
We loved the ramen so much!! The broth for the fried chicken cutlet is so delicious. It's a creamy savory broth if that's your thing! Only thing is my boyfriend had a much bigger bowl than I did for his spicy ramen. Not sure why but I was def jealous he had well more broth. He seems to think I had well more noodles too. So I lacked broth and he lacked noodles. But other than that I would come here again no prob.
I really wanted to like this place. It was a rainy day and Ramen sounded really good. Based on all the pretty good reviews, I was very optimistic. Now, I hope for their sake I got them on a reeeeally bad day for them, because my experience and all the reviews makes me think this is not the same place. Kumai Ramen is located in a shopping center/plaza place with a food court feel on the inside. I walked in and it did not smell good. Not in a 'many different foods being cooked' kind of way; more of a standing water/almost sewer type smell in the air. Located the stall which belonged to the restaurant and you could hear people in the back, but there was no one out front. Took the time to look over the menu again. It looks really good and my mouth was watering. When we finally got someone out there, I ordered the Spicy Chicken Ramen which (per the lady who took our order) was the exact same as the Tonkotsu but with chicken. My friend got Tonkotsu and we got an order of Gyoza to share. The prices in person are higher than the prices published online, but still pretty reasonable. All the food came out at the same time. I noticed right away that my broth didn't really look like the picture. So points lost on presentation, but to me the real test is in the taste. I then noticed that it wasn't steamy the way Ramen should be. Matter of fact, it was just barely warm! The broth was just... basic! No body to it, yes well salted, but that was the extent of the seasoning. No real flavor to it. Basically like a bouillon broth. The absolute WORST part was the chicken: it was COLD!! Not like it had been sitting out, but like it had been in the refrigerator and they just sliced it up and chucked it in the broth! Plus it tasted like basic boiled chicken. I could not believe what I was eating. I really tried, but I could not do more than a few bites of the noodles themselves. Tossed almost the entire bowl, I was so disgusted. The 1 star is for the gyoza, but then it comes pre-made these days so that is not a challenging feat.
Located in a supermarket, this ramen shop does a great job with authentic Japanese flavors. I ordered the Takoyaki ( squid balls) great flavor with plenty of large squid pieces. Followed by the Spicy Tonkatsu Ramen and my hubby got the regular fried Pork cutlet Ramen. We both enjoyed our dishes and at 10.00 you can't beat the price! Egg was cooked well, aka soft opaque center, broth flavorful and plentiful enough to order noodles and cabbage to go home and have a second meal the next day. We will definitely be back when we are around tha
Since I was not raised with a diet that included ramen as a child, I had very little expectation of what it is supposed to taste like. I know what people tell me authentic real ramen should be, but I'm not bound to those parameters. While I am totally satisfied with the fusion-style ramen @ PaoPao Ramen Factory in Buford, Georgia with its richly flavored ingredients, I came here in hopes of something different, but still not traditional. I don't tend to find traditional ramen appealing or flavorful. I did a yelp ramen search of the area and came across my friend Christina K's review describing the Pork Rib Ramen bowl here and I was instantly sold!!! I was in my car and walking in the front door in less than a half hour. Kumai Ramen is located in the JUSGO INTERNATIONAL FOOD COURT & farmers market that I believe was once an Ashley Furniture store, where my wife and I purchased some of our very first pieces of furniture as a married couple over two decades ago. So funny how times change and places evolve. 22 years ago, I had an apartment near here and EVERY BUSINESS in the immediate area was once something different. But I was pleased to see how this particular location is getting a fantastic new life. [ THE FOOD ] What captured me in Christina's review was this: "The ramen was very good, the broth was rich and it was obviously made from scratch over a period of time. It came with 3 thick, generous, fall off the bone ribs - absolutely delicious!" While I only had two bones, they were extremely meaty! The bowl was larger than I expected, leaving me full and satisfied at the end of my meal. I also ordered the fried oysters which were very meaty and came with a delicious dipping sauce. The entire atmosphere of the food court was exciting to me, like a tour of Asia. So exciting in fact that I brought my wife & youngest son back a few days later and we explored some of the other restaurants and their offerings (reviews coming soon). [FINAL THOUGHTS ] OVERALL I was very pleased with my food selections and will likely upgrade this review from 4 stars to 5 once I've had to opportunity to try other items on the menu. PaoPao is still my favorite ramen restaurant, but I get a feeling this place is going to give them a run for their money! ENJOY! 2020 /84
A Japanese ramen shop that appears to be owned by someone that is Chinese. We ordered the spicy tonkotsu ramen and the deep fried squid. The spicy tonkotsu does not resemble the last hundreds of bowl of tonkotsu ramen I have eaten. It has a weird resemblance of a spicy Chinese noodle soup if that even make sense. The flavor was just off. We couldn't finish it. The chashu tastes like chinese bbq pork. The only thing that came out right was the perfectly cooked egg. The deep fried squid was crunchy enough to our liking, but we thought the portion is fairly small. Overall I cannot recommend this ramen place to my ramen lover friends.
I like it, but not in the typical ramen ya kinda way. The broth is good, so are the toppings, but the noodles are different. They use yellow, egg noodles , and not the normal ramen type. Its different, not bad different, but sometimes it hard to adjust your expectations. I think this place has tremendous potential. If they would make their own noodles, I think this place would be a winner. hmmmm.. I wonder if I can make my own noodles and bring em here...
Kumai Ramen is located inside of the Jusgo Supermarket off of Venture Drive. It's on the backside of the upper level food court. There's plenty of seating and it's super clean. After you order they give you a little buzzer to let you know when the food is ready. I've been there atleast 5 times now and each time it never disappoints. I've had the tonkatsu Ramen, garlic tonkatsu Ramen, vegetable Ramen, teriyaki beef and eel bowl and the takoyaki snack. All of it is good and packed with flavor. The portions are huge for the price and they definitely get you full. The Ramen noodles have a great consistency and the broth is rich with flavor. The pork melts in your mouth and I always save it for last. I also love the salted egg that comes in the bowl. To be honest I have no complaints. I tried takoyaki for the first time here and it was amazing. I try not to get it every single time I come but knowing how good it is it's hard not to! If you're looking for great Ramen and friendly customer service this is the place to try! read more

The only Vegan/Vegetarian Ramen option was surprisingly delicious. The flavors weren't overbearing. It has the clear broth, not the traditional creamy. Great texture though. SUPER FAST SERVICE. Located in a food court at a supermarket, so it has the usual Asian store smell. read more

This place is actually a pretty good ramen shop for being in a food court. The egg was cooked and seasoned perfectly, the charsiu was tender, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. I got the chicken broth because I don't really like thick ones like tonkatsu and it was only okay. Its really lacking in flavor compared to other chicken broths I've had. Had it been really good, I would've given this place a perfect rating. Still, this is definitely a place to grab yourself a bowl when you're in the area and just need something hearty. read more

Update: Every time I come back home to Georgia, I always make sure to stop by Kumai. I still think that it is the best ramen place in the local area and worth the price. I took off a star from my last review because the quality and quantity of meat and other things in their ramen vary from time to time. I would still very much prefer to come here than drive 30+ minutes and wait for 30+ minutes for better ramen, though. read more

This place has some good ramen. If you're looking for a quick spot, no frills or fluff this is the place to go. It is inside the jusgo market- it is a good court style-it is not a physical restaurant. I will definitely come back! read more

I've tried almost every single ramen they have and every one of them is very flavorful and hits comfort. I always ask for extra spicy and they make it till perfection every single time read more

I returned after my first good experience and was disappointed by the drop in quality and service. Workers seem exhausted and less motivated than before. This time, they don't even give you a soup spoon. Instead, you use a tiny plastic spoon. Quality dropped significantly. The meat was actually COLD in my ramen noodle. Aka they scooped it from the refrigerator and dropped it in the noodle. The broth itself tasted bland and oily. I honestly couldn't finish my food. I thought I found a good ramen place OTP and am disappointed that didn't last. read more

Kumai is inside the Jusgo Supermarket in Duluth. I have overall been very pleased with the quality of the food. The broth is very flavorful, and the ramen just hits the spot. I love that it is quick service and casual dining atmosphere. They also have a frequent rewards punch card. My favorite ramen to order there is the spicy miso ramen! read more

By far, this place has the best ramen in Norcross GA. I have been to Jinya in Atlanta and this place blows them out of the water. The spicy tonkotsu ramen is my favorite. This place acutally is affordable too. Most of the bowls are around $10. I ordered ramen from another place the other day that was closer to my house and it cost $15. The ramen at best was subpar. read more

If you like the real Japanese ramen, this is the place to go. The soup tasted so good and they cooked takoyaki in front of you. with affordable price is really hard to beat read more
This is definitely on the low end of ramen I've tried. Not much flavor in the broth, the noodles were not that great. I got the fried chicken cutlet tonkotsu and it was not like I expected. The chicken was meh... and the broth was kind of milky and flavorless. The prices are lower than other ramen places I have been to, so I guess you get what you pay for. The customer service was just ok. I will likely not be going back here. I recommend going to Jinya Ramen bar if you really want ramen. read more

Place is located in the Jusgo marketplace which has many different food halls. Been here twice and greeted by the same cashier. Cashier is very nice. Order at cashier, get a buzzer, then sit and wait. Took less than 10 minutes but the place was quiet. May take longer during busy hours as it's made to order. Ordered the Vegetable and Mushroom Ramen ($8.95) and other party ordered the Garlic Tonkatsu Ramen ($9.15). The veggie ramen had a lot of veggies and corn was sweet. The veggie broth was slightly salty but wasn't bad. Wished it had garlic or onions for more flavor. Veggies included asparagus, broccoli, mushroom, corn, bean sprouts, and snow peas. Also had two soft tofu. Had a lot of veggies which is great since most ramen places can skimp on the veggies. Don't think the noodles are handmade but it wasn't bad. I was told the Garlic Tonkatsu Ramen was pretty good. Beware the ramen has a lot of garlic. I could smell the garlic from my side of table. I'm giving this place a 3.5. Would come back. read more

Who isn't always on a quest for the best bowl of ramen in town? I definitely recommend this place to anyone somewhat curious. We got an order of the tonkotsu ramen and the chicken katsu, both were flavorful and hearty. You definitely get more bang for your buck with the size, toppings, and presentation. The ramen was delicious and the broth was extremely flavorful. I wanted to try the chicken ramen but unfortunately they ran out of chicken so I opted for the chicken katsu instead, as its my goto choice dish. Pleasantly surprised that it was also delicious. I would recommend bring a water bottle if you plan to eat in the Jusgo food court. Many restaurants have a small water dispencer/small cups, they sell canned drinks also though. Will be coming back here to try the takoyaki and baos read more
My boyfriend and I were trying to kill two birds with one stone by getting lunch in the food court and do some grocery shopping since we knew this was inside a supermarket. But it's currently being renovated right now so just lunch! F.Y.I. The food court entrance is the right entrance of the building. Anyways, the interior of the food court area wowed me. It was so modern. Not something I'd expect for an Asian supermarket. Kumai Ramen is more towards the back. The menu consists of noodle soups, ramen, udon, rice bowls and snacks, which is what I'd probably compare to appetizers or small plates (I'm assuming, I did not order any snacks). You could also choose toppings to add but for additional price (garlic, green onion and fried onion are free). I ordered the "Kakuni Ramen" and my boyfriend ordered the "Beef Bowl". The ramen was good but did not have that "real" salty ramen flavor. My boyfriend's bowl was good as well, tasted savory but he thought they put too much sauce. The bowl also came with a small salad and miso soup. I will be giving this place some more tries, especially for the udon (I am on a quest to find the best Udon in Atlanta). Good pricing, good food. No complaints. read more

The market is closed, there was lady in front won't let us in. Are they closed as well?
You can use the entrance on the right. There's one entrance for the market and another for the food court. Hope this helps!
