Ramen is something nearly ubiquitous in the Metro, and now with international heavyweight concepts…read moresuch as Nagi and Ippudo as mainstays in the environment, it can look like a daunting scene for a local upstart to penetrate. Oyasumi Ramen can definitely hold its on. Located on the cozy and quiet food street of P. Guevarra in San Juan, it seems unassuming on the outside but the interiors greet you with something super cool. There's a lot of texturized concrete and dark woods with a lot of spot lighting so you get this vibe that is both cool and industrial yet warm and welcoming at the same time. It actually reminded me of what Abercrombie stores are like overseas. Now for the food! The ramen here is probably the best I've ever had, not because it's super authentic or totally different, but because it seems to make right all the things my palate seems to love about ramen. I came here with my groupmates from school on a rainy day and all of us left completely satisfied. I had the La Paz and it is probably the best soup I've ever had in my life. Extremely decadent with delicious broth and an extremely well made tamago topped with chicharron crumbles and yummy slabs of tonkatsu and shoyu and a contrast of garlic and pork blood from the traditional La Paz Batchoy made for an amazing lunch. I also was able to try the black pepper and iekei that my friends ordered but we all agreed the La Paz was something special. Also if you have leftover broth they'll make a risotto out of it for ₱60! Totally worth it.

I hate Ikkoryu so much that when my friends suggest we eat there, I come up with a counter offer…read morejust to avoid that place. This is because I had such a terrible experience in their SM Aura branch. The noodles were badly cooked and the black garlic soup was too overwhelming and confusing. I also had a terrible experience in their ATC branch. That green soup ramen was not something I would like to experience again. It must be noted that both stores don't have good dining areas. But now, I fell in love with this place just after one bowl. People, you should try their Aburi Chashu ramen. It's their tonkotsu broth soup paired with roasted chashu. It's not just sliced pork that is dumped into your bowl. They roast the chashu which gives it better flavor and texture. For me, this made all the difference. I am now a fan. I loved it. The service was also excellent. The staff was so fast that I was in and out of that place in 20 minutes. Sometimes I have to admit that I am too loyal to Yushoken. But now, Ikkoryu is in a good position to have a bigger share of my ramen expenses.

Luckily this place was in the shopping center near our hotel. I was surprised at the menu and visually I just wanted to eat everything. The place is small but so was every other restaurant around there. Service was good and even though their might have been a language barrier on my end, they spoke English! The food was surprisingly good! Tonkotsu is known to be a little fatty on the Broth but there were vinegar, chili oil, and soy sauce to match your taste buds. I had the Yuzu (I usually order this back home) and I liked it. Very citrusy and peppery! My cousins had the Tonkotsu and they enjoyed it too! If it wasn't hott I would see myself coming here often.

We opted to sit inside... The service was excellent. From the time you enter the place, you are greeted with smiling faces. And the staff are always more than happy to help you out with the orders and explaining the menu items. The food arrives quite promptly. It took around 15 minutes to get our orders, a very reasonable time to prepare ramen. But the ramen was on the very salty side! The size of the servings were good. The contents were as expected of a ramen. But the soup base was indeed on the salty side. A family member also confirmed my thoughts on the soup base being salty. No matter how good the ingredients, a salty soup base just doesn't cut it. Maybe I'll come back again next time I'm in Manila just to see if the saltiness was a one off deal or part of a standard recipe overdone with the salt measure...

The food is good, the place is cheery and a bit sleek even, and you wouldn't be afraid to bring either a date or a client to this joint. I particularly like their Noukou Ramen, as it is one of the better ramens I have tasted in Metro Manila. I find it weird that this place gets no love from the online community. I mean, no good reviews, no bad reviews, nothing at all. It's as if the place doesn't exist. That's a shame because this place definitely deserves more attention than what it's getting right now. Not that it's not doing great on its own (There's always people here), but you know what I mean.

Not convenient to eat it with even chop sticks. The taste of all components in ramen are slightly lower than the average, but balance and combination of all is below average ramen we could eat in Manila. Gyoza also is lower than the average level. Maybe their noodle is only for tsukemen dipping noodle like Mitsuyado seimen.

AMBIENCE Restaurant was empty when we arrived. Background…read moremusic was acceptably loud and the couch seats were cozy. High chairs are available for toddlers and entrance is wheelchair-friendly. FOOD Caterpillar Roll was sweet and the river eel, although small, still tasted obvious and delicious. Iekei Yokohama Style Ramen was very umami and the extra firm noodles were perfect to my liking! Chashu serving was fair but the entire bowl was extremely filling! Spicy Miso Ramen was similar to the other ramen but it had corn and ground beef or pork. Between both ramen, I like the Iekei Yokohama Style Ramen because it was much simpler and straightforward. SERVICE Zomato Gold perks were easy to claim but we had slight misunderstanding on the drink. We were asking for free cold tea and got served Iced Twinings Green Tea Chai; had them take it back after the second conversation with them about it. When it was time to pay the bill, they forgot to void the beverage so we had to wait a little extra. ~ Nov. 2019

The servers were very attentive and they were even kind enough to accommodate my request for extra kikurage (wood ear mushroom) even though that option wasn't available on the menu. When you order ramen, you get to choose the hardness of your noodles, which is always a plus for me when it comes to these kinds of restaurants. Another plus for me was the spicy sesame oil they had on the table so I was free to decide how spicy I wanted my ramen to be.

I just don't subscribe to noodles that cost upwards of P200. I think that's ridiculous, no matter how yummy it is or how great the ingredients are. However, when peer pressure wins over practicality (and when my pockets are heavy with payday money), I like to relent a little. Just like what happened today. I was checking out the freshly painted murals of the One Festival, which is part of Art BGC. I was toured around by the festival organizers, and afterwards, I got super hungry, that's why I didn't even bat an eyelash when I got invited to go and have something to eat. I didn't know that we were gonna end up in Ramen Iroha, but I went in with them anyway. I had a little bit of a problem with the menu because I don't eat pork, and all of their broth bases are pork-based. I was starting to get sad, but the waitress called the chef over, and he immediately informed me that he could make me a vegetarian ramen. I think that was rather very sweet of Chef Paul, who personally went out of the kitchen to offer me a non-pork option. It made my night, especially because their hospitality has allowed me to enjoy a really terrific and guilt-less bowl of ramen with my friends. Chef Paul also handed me the manager's card, and asked me to call ahead if I am planning to go back for more of the vegetarian ramen. Best of all, the servers were very attentive, and they were fussing over us and making us feel at home. Thank you for the nice experience, Ramen Iroha!

There have been a lot of places to get good sushi popping up lately, and Yumi's another one of…read morethem! What sets them apart is that they have some maki that I haven't seen in any other restaurant. The same goes for their other dishes, actually. Read: deep fried oysters and foie gras sushi. But I'm not big on heavy food so we ordered both of Yumi's Moriawase platters, which are sushi combo platters, and their salmon rolls with cream cheese and fried salmon skin. They were all good! We were pleasantly surprised by the salmon rolls, as they were sitting on a light drizzling of vinaigrette, which was a great touch. The cream cheese, salmon skin (and lettuce leaf!) were a great combination. Both Moriawase platters had a nice kind of variety in them. My favorites were the beef teppanyaki roll, kani maki with bonito flakes and the soft shell crab lettuce maki. The prices are a little high, but I think they're worth it for the ingredients you get, and the food is quite satisfying. Admittedly, there are places where you can get much better sushi for a lower price, but you won't find the kind they serve here. I'm sure to return to try out their other interesting dishes.

Strange entrance aside, the restaurant itself serves pretty good food. I quite enjoyed the grilled Norwegian salmon marinated in sake. The portion is a bit small but the taste makes up for it. The chicken karaage was also enjoyable. Skip the ramen. It's entirely forgettable and the rolls as well. Tip! The bento boxes are awesome! They have four different kinds. I usually get the US Tenderloin Teppan. For PHP 450, I get rice, beef, gyoza, tuna and salmon sashimi and miso soup. I think it's really good value. Next time you come around Greenhills to watch a movie, don't forget about this place.
