I love ramen, and this is top tier. I've lived in this area for a while, and Mensho is by far the best restaurant in this spot. I've gone back here more than any other restaurant at Westgate. The flavor is deep and high quality. Seems like a restaurant in NYC or LA, way to go Glendale Really nice ambiance, clean and chic. Amazing service also, we love Kevin! He is so nice and helpful every time we go. read more

Mensho - Spicy Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

I was excited to try this spot. I think it's worth trying once, but I probably wouldn't come back. The food isn't bad at all--it's just not really my style. The broth was incredibly creamy and rich, which ended up being a bit too heavy for my taste. The service was decent, and the ambiance was nice. However, the restaurant had a noticeable musty smell, almost like an old damp rag, which took away from the dining experience. The water also tasted a little off to me. My biggest issue was the pricing. In my opinion, everything felt overpriced for what you get, and I don't think it lives up to the hype. Even the basic drinks were expensive. Overall, it's not a bad restaurant, but I personally don't think it's worth the price. read more

Ambiance is great, you really do get a feel for Japan when you walk in. Food is good for the amount you pay. On this day, was only able to get enoki chips and calamari since they don't serve sushi during the weekdays. My face was as perplexed as the stranger who sat next to me when he tried to order sushi off their current menu, only to be met with a can of disappointment. They need to have weekday menu since don't serve sushi AND they literally never seem to have Tsukemen available (2nd visit now). Service is better than most places; however, seating arrangements are odd to say the least. If you're lucky you'll get your own table but most of the time you have to sit next to or across from strangers. Then try not to awkwardly look at each other or play footsie by accident. Overall it was a middling experience, could've been better. read more

I enjoyed coming to this ramen place I loved the set up and table. The decor was beautiful. I had their popular ramen and my son got the spicy. Both were delicious. A bit much on mushroom for mine but I knew that going in. Great introduction on what I was eating. Recommended to try the truffle first which I think I ate the right part which seemed good. Kinda gets lost once you mix it. Overall I'm glad to check this place out and price wise was decent and server was friendly read more

First of all I want to start out by saying that the food was delicious! Loved the broth and the pork belly was so tender! Not overly spicy but very flavorful. Also ordered the nori calamari which I told was an exclusive menu item to this location and it was super delicious! But be warned, it's all legs. Very crispy and absolutely loved the lemon and seafood aioli it came with! Im satisfied with the service we received. The server helped answer any questions because I am the kind of person to ask for recommendations at new restaurants. The food also came out really quick and piping hot. Just wanted to point out since I've seen other reviews say otherwise. The restaurant itself is really cute but pretty small. I was worried it was going to be really busy because I came in on a Saturday afternoon but I was seated right away. Yes, I would say this place is more costly than other options... but I am so glad they opened this place. I haven't really had great ramen on the west side and this one is really delicious! read more

The internationally acclaimed ramen destination from Tokyo. Each bowl is made using carefully selected, locally sourced ingredients! The location is bigger than the Mesa one, but smaller than the Phoenix location. This was just right. This location is bright and has indoor and outdoor seating. There is a round table that can seat 8 total of split off to be a table to share, cool! There is also a sushi bar area too. We got the Oayite Edamane, Aji Fry (Fish), & Signature Ramen (Toripaitan) with duck slices then also dessert Green Matcha pudding! Everything was OUTSTANDING! Feed me. The service was friendly, nice, and knowledgeable. read more

They open at noon, so we made sure to get here a little early on a Tuesday to avoid the wait. This location is sized right in between the Mesa and Phoenix spots, not tiny and crowded like Mesa, but not as big as Phoenix. The interior is bright and modern, and they have a cool round table in the middle of the restaurant. There's also a sushi bar and an outdoor seating area. Our server was nice and helpful. We ordered my favorite Aji Fish Tempura, Garlic Edamame, Classic Ramen with duck on the side, and their Matcha Latte Pudding. Everything was just as amazing as at the other locations, the broth is rich, the duck is tender, and the Aji Fish Tempura, just perfect! And OMG, the Matcha Latte Pudding, first time trying it, and I love it! Not too sweet, with a perfect matcha flavor. I could honestly come back just for this. read more

Really good ramen. Service was quick and friendly. The restaurant is a cute spot. They do sit you with other people if you don't mind. In door and out door seating. No changing station in the bathroom though, which was rough for us with a baby. Overall we liked it, very good ramen. We will definitely be back. read more

I love that there's a new mensho location in the west valley! Came here to westgate for dinner and a movie and made for a great evening. It wasn't too busy when we went, but they have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. It's smaller than the Phoenix location. The service here was great, and we got out orders fairly quickly. read more

After going to the Tempe location multiple times, I'm super excited that they finally came to the west valley. I normally get the signature ramen but switched the Spicy Tori and I loved it.

We went on Friday (after new years) and it was pretty quiet. We sat on their patio since it was dog friendly. We got the fried enoki, vegan ramen, and the GKO. The broth of the ramen was so good, but would've loved more spice/heat. The enoki was unique but like someone else said a sauce would've been a nice accompaniment. Like most people have commented, it is quite pricey. The staff were great at explaining the components of our ramen and refilling our waters. read more

Just got home from Mensho! We ordered the signature, the spicy , and calamari! The ramen was good, but coming from L.A (I know I know they're not big fans of L.A folk out here lol)....Ive gone to some of the best ramen spots and none were as pricy as this place. I think the only thing that is off putting is the price. The ramen was tasty as was the calamari. The restaurant is super cute, and im sure it's cute at night too. Service was great, they explained everything to us, which was nice! I wasn't a huge fan of the smoked egg for some reason. It wasn't bad, it was just a random-ish flavor to go with the ramen. Anyways! I'd come back maybe for a special occasion. It was $80 for two bowls of ramen and a calamari. I know this economy is expensive and all and you have to pay for overhead and ingredients. I'd recommend it though. read more

Tried out Mensho Ramen for the first time and got the Classic and Signature ramen bowls, plus the fried calamari. The calamari was really good, super crunchy and flavorful, probably my favorite thing I ordered. The ramen was creamy and rich, kind of like what you'd get in Japan. You can tell the noodles are made in-house they have that nice chewy texture. Flavor-wise, it was decent, but honestly, I've had better ramen in Phoenix for less. The prices here are definitely on the higher side. Service was good though. The staff explains what you're getting, which is nice, and they're attentive without being overly friendly (which I actually prefer). The place itself is really pretty, dim lighting, calm, quiet vibe perfect for a chill night out. Overall, not bad at all, but not amazing either. I'd come back to try a few more things before deciding if it's worth the price. read more

I live in the West Valley, so I was really excited when this location opened! My husband and I came here for lunch. The restaurant is super cute, and the servers are very nice. We ordered two appetizers and two ramen bowls. The Enoki Chips were really good -- I just wish they came with some kind of dipping sauce instead of salt (personal preference). The A5 Wagyu Negi Nigiri was also delicious and fresh, though the rice had a bit too much vinegar. For ramen, we ordered the Classic and the Tokyo Chaccha. I loved the Tokyo ramen -- the broth was rich and creamy. My husband had the Classic and said it tasted a bit sour, probably from the bamboo, but he still enjoyed it overall. The prices are definitely on the higher side. Our bill came out to about $100 after tip, and I felt the portions were a bit small for the price. I'd come back for a special occasion, but probably not just for the ramen since there are plenty of places in the Valley with better prices and portions. Still, I'd recommend trying it at least once if you haven't yet! read more

It was our first time trying Mensho. We went on a Friday around 4pm and there was no wait. The service was friendly and checked on us frequently. We got their GKO ramen, daikon salad, and takoyaki (not pictured). The ramen was delicious, but I did not enjoy the chicken that was in it. The 5 different garlics in it were so yummy! The daikon salad was light and refreshing. It was nice going from the creamy ramen to a refreshing salad. The takoyaki is something I would pass on. We get takoyaki whenever it is on a menu, and I would say this one did not stand out. The inside is decorated so nicely and the ambiance is nice. I could see myself coming back to enjoy a nice lunch again. Overall pretty good, just glad there's a nice Asian restaurant added to the west side! read more

Favorite place for ramen ! Been here a couple times now and will continue to come here.

So glad Mensho has a location closer to where I usually visit! I've been to their Mesa location and the restaurant is different but still nice. I think the Westgate location is more spacious and open. I love the signature ramen, wagyu nigiri, and calamari the best. read more

Visited last weekend right at opening and was greeted at the entrance by the hostess and the rest of the employees. The hostess decided to sit us right underneath the speakers of the restaurant and not sure whose idea it was to play music was ridiculous amount of bass, but we had family members that were uncomfortable with the audio. We reached out to the hostess to relocate outside, mind you, they just opened and it was completely empty. The hostess decided to give us this conceited look of disgust and asked why we wanted to move. We clearly explained why and the attitude she gave us was just disgusting. What is with the attitude? The place wasn't even busy and completely empty and if we wanted to move outside, it was our choice. If you don't want to be at your job, then don't. Besides that, our server and the food was good, so decided not to give it one star. To the hostess that gave us attitude, you are making your employer look bad. Get another job. read more

I recently tried Mensho's for the first time being the kani miso soup and calamari, and unfortunately, I began feeling unwell the next day with stomach pain and cramping.

Been to a lot of ramen place and this is one of the best. Only bad part is the portions. Could eat 2 bowls np but then it'll be too pricey

Very delicious ramen and enoki chips! I got the signature which was so good but very heavy. It's definitely something I'd get as a treat, but I wanna go back and try the rest of the ramens. Definitely recommend at least once. read more

Mensho - Calamari appetizer. Amazing! - Ramen Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

Came here for lunch because I was craving ramen, usually have to travel to Tempe/Central Phoenix but found this place on the map and figured I try it. The ambience was great, very nice and aesthetically pleasing. Their menu was a bit overwhelming, they don't have kid menus, but they do offer simple soups for them. The soup was good, and broth was good. Service was not the best, that's why I only gave two stars. I asked for a water for my daughter twice and the server, Juliette never brought it out. We asked if they had plastic cups with lids, and she said no that they just had straws. She brought her a straw but no drink. Made no sense. Pricing was outrageous for what it is. I've had other, better ramen for a better price. I get the location, but also, if the service was good, I think it would have been good. But the lady didn't really help us out except read us the specials. Needed more context, because it was our first time there. read more

We decided to try out Mensho Ramen and were looking forward to it since the place seemed nice and the food looked really good. Unfortunately, the customer service ruined the experience. It was just me and my boyfriend, and there was an open corner table that normally seats four. The hostess told us we couldn't sit there because they wanted to save it for a larger party. This was with about an hour left before closing, the restaurant was clearly slowing down, and there was no wait. We asked our waitress, who said it was the hostess's decision and went to ask again, but the answer was still no. The interaction between staff felt dismissive and uncomfortable. We would've been more frustrated if we had stayed for dinner only to see that table remain empty all night. Because of how it was handled, we canceled our drinks and decided to leave. While the food looked great, the customer service ultimately ruined it for us. read more

This place looks cool, but that's all it has going for it. The food lacks flavor. If you try to correct that by ordering hot sauce or soy sauce you pay extra. Literally $2 for a small bowl. Services was not great either, which is weird cause they have a lot of people for the size. This place is all style no substance. Save your money for something actually good. read more
