Being vegetarians, my wife and I appreciate when a restaurant offers meatless food that still tastes good. We ordered the vegetable egg rolls which came with a very different and delicious sauce than the run of the mill duck sauce and hot mustard. They were a crisp and hot when served and we would order them again. We both ordered the vegetable ramen which was loaded with plenty of fresh vegetables and rice noodles in a wonderful broth which was not too salty. The dish had plenty of umami for our pallets and we both highly recommend this choice for others who want to avoid meat. The restaurant is convenient to downtown and just around the corner from the Pablo Center where we had tickets for the Eau Claire Jazz Festival kickoff concert. The space overlooks the Eau Claire River just above the confluence with the Chippewa River. read more

The ramen broth had no flavor, even with the addition of chili oil and soy sauce. Noodles were undercooked. The pork belly was done to perfection. Spouse had a vegetarian poke bowl which was ok. The place is very well designed and nice to look at. But broth needs work - someone in our party got a different ramen bowl and also thought it was tasteless. read more

Madden Ramen - Portion of seating area. - Ramen Near Me - Eau Claire, Wisconsin

Best. FOOD. IN EAU CLAIRE!! I do not say this lightly. My boyfriend and I went at an odd time, they were still very kind and service was incredibly fast. im talking less than 5 minutes for boba and 20 for food. Also very reasonably priced for the portions you get!! I got the pork ramen and the pork belly was soooo tender it melted in my mouth. broth,noodles,egg and everything else was absolutely amazing. My boyfriend got the madden ramen but be warned, they do not play about the spicy symbol!!! I will definitely be back! read more

Madden Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Eau Claire, Wisconsin

Review Visit: November 13th, 2024 You'd have to be mad to skip this place. For the short while that Tim has lived in Eau Claire, he has always said great things about Madden Ramen. With that in mind, we made plans to visit here on this trip to visit him. After getting our gaming on at Rebbot Social, we walked the few minutes over to Madden and were promptly seated. Our waitress was quick and attentive with seating us and taking our orders and clearing off the table as we finished. Tim and I talked about the menu a little bit and he highlighted the few things he's had here before. I am a sucker for spicy stuff so I ended up getting the Madden Ramen. Tim ended up getting the same plus one of their boba teas to go with it. The food didn't take long to come out and while we were being served, I ordered a Kirin Ichiban beer to go with it. I'm glad I got the beer to go with it as this sucker was hot hot hot. Not only temperature hot but also spicy hot. Each bite was delicious but left me sweating a bit... which is a good thing. Tim talked this place up and it delivered with every bite of the ramen and every swig of my beer. The food tastes of high quality and the cuts of pork made me wish I ordered it with extra beef. It was dang good. Each bite a treat for the taste buds. For how good the food here is, it's pretty easy to pop in for a quick bowl and dip out after you finish. Maybe not for the hotter bowls but this can be a quick trip if you need a quick bite. On our way out, I did stop and get a pokeball from the coin machine. I got a Darmanitan, I think? I'm not familiar with any pokemon after Gen 2. I also tried the claw machine and came close to getting an Ash Ketchum twice but it slipped out after the claw fully retracted. Had I a few more dollar bills, it would've been mine. I'm definitely looking forward to visiting here again once I return to Eau Claire in 2025. Our friend Matt will be joining us then and he is in for a treat. read more

Took the kids to Madden Ramen and we were all impressed! I had the Madden Ramen and it was full of flavor--maybe the best ramen I've ever had. My son got the steak ramen and tore it up, and my daughter loved her spicy poke bowl. We also tried their fried chicken (crispy and well-seasoned) and some delicious boba drinks. Everything hit the spot. Definitely recommend. read more

I would give 3.5. The location was pretty good, ramen was fine. Chewy noodles and flavorful soup. We ordered the bun and the sauce was a little over powering. And I felt the chicken karage was a bit burnt. Hence taking off the stars. I did hear good reviews from others so maybe my experience was a fluke. There are lots of typos on the menu. read more

Love the food, aesthetic, and location! They have friendly employees that really took care of us. I ordered the Madden Ramen which was a perfect combination of creamy, flavorful and spicy. It's near a park with so many seating areas so my friend and I took a walk afterwards and relaxed. I enjoyed everything and plan on going back. read more

This restaurant has an open, modern space on the eau Claire river. Table service, open kitchen. I went on a Monday just afternoon. I was alone. I will see you immediately. I had a Boba tea which was delicious. And I had a pork ramen which was excellent. Poke is also on the menu. I brought my wife here two days later. We had the potstickers and eggrolls as an appetizer. They were good. I had the curry chicken, it certainly was not as good as the ramen I had a few days earlier. We both had the Boba milk tea, which was absolutely delicious. I had the taro milk tea with tapioca Boba. read more

Very large portion, with a good amount of meat, veggies and not just noodles. It was a bit on the bland side for my taste. Delivery was quick. read more

We ordered miso ramen, chicken curry and shrimp curry. Ramen was 4/10 because the broth lacked flavor! The curry is a 6/10 for the large quantity of protein and food. Overall, the flavor was mid. The service was fast and attentive, but not personable. At the end we were asked if we wanted a punch card and said "no." They made us feel bad for not wanting a punch card! Don't know if we would attend again for the food, but would get boba read more

I was visiting my family for the holidays and decided to grab some lunch ramen for the cold day. Being from LA I've tried lots of ramen spots, and this one exceeded my expectations. I ordered the side of gyoza and Madden Ramen. Both were amazing! The ramen was perfect for the chilly weather. The one thing I will say is the pork was a bit dry but still tasted great. Service was good! Will definitely be visiting again next time I'm around this town. read more

I have eaten the ramen here maybe 50 times in the past two years and it has never failed to be delicious. I recommend adding their chilli oil for some extra spice - but is not necessary. When we have gone in to eat the whole crew and their service has been nothing short of amazing. read more

We went last night and had the best experience. The service was fast and kind, and very knowledgeable. We split the gyoza and then had the Miso Ramen and the Alaska Poke bowl. Both just so yummy. Then ended with a brown sugar tea with tapioca boba. We will be back soon! Large portions and even took some home for later! read more

This is one place that I will ALWAYS come back to in Eau Claire. Located in downtown Eau Claire and within walking distance from the Pablo Center, this restaurant is a must go! Great view of Phoenix Park. One of the best places I have ever been for food. We had the Madden Poke Bowl and the Madden Ramen and WOW, were our eyes bigger than our stomachs. The flavors, texture, and presentation are phenomenal. I would've taken pictures if I didn't dig in right in. They do NOT skimp when it comes to portion size and definitely worth the price. Staff is friendly and it feels like family! They also serve Boba, too! read more

Not impressed. Went on a Thursday night and were seated promptly. Unfortunately that's the only good part of the evening. It took forever for someone to come take our order (only after my wife got up & found the server). Drinks were kinda plopped on the table. Our order was delivered to the wrong table on a night when they weren't that busy, so we had to wait for it to be made again. Found the food to be short on flavor and was only luke-warm. Eggrolls were all dough with little-to-no filling. Teas was weak. Server never came to check on us. Poor service, poor food, and sterile atmosphere. We won't be going back read more

Excellent food. Good service. Very nice locale. Highly recommened! Suprisingly affordable.

Very good ramen. Our party chose various types including pork, chicken, and seafood based broths. All were spot on and very filling. For those with less adventurous tastes, I'd argue the chicken ramen that my 9yr old ordered probably has the best chicken broth one could have at any restaurant. The seafood ramen was very much enjoyed by my middle child who is also the most adventurous of my kids . I tried it and found the broth to be authentic to the flavor typical of my Asian upbringing. I was pleasantly surprised. The pork broth based ramen with chili sauce was enjoyed by myself and others. All our orders compared well with what I'd typically order in larger cities. There was something for everyone. read more

I am becoming a seasoned ramen expert. Living in the twin cities driving all over and trying well over a dozen Ramen places, Madden gives the best of them a run for their money. Friendly attentive staff and great ramen and boba tea. I'll post a couple pictures. Really good flavor in the roasted pork belly and tonkatsu ramen broth. read more

3.5 stars. I thought the ramen was fairly good. Kids loved their boba drinks. Place was clean and service was good. $120 for 5 people...meh. 2 of my 3 kids barely touched their food...the ramen does not reheat good as a leftover. read more

First time to the recently opened Madden poke restaurant. I had an excellent Madden poke. They have several pokes but I ordered the Madden. It is delicious with fresh ingredients and a nice, mild sauce and it's a large portion. I took half of it home to eat later. My husband had the tofu bowl and liked it very much. It's so nice to have a high quality restaurant with a river view finally in downtown Eau Claire. read more

Gross food with bad service. The restaurant was completely empty during lunch hour and now we know why. Our to go order arrived quickly, because there were no other customers. The ramen was so bad and disappointing it made us want to just open a $.25 package and cook some ourselves. read more

The food is awesome and they have vegetarian options. I enjoyed my tofu rice bowl a lot.
