    Naruto roll & Pork Gyoza
    Mikhaila M.

    We wanted to go somewhere with lots of options for our group, and 505 Central Food Hall is perfect for this. My son loves the Naruto Ramen and I really enjoyed the Naruto Roll. They were great with our modifications and the sushi was fresh and delicious. It was a little hard to find a table because this place was bustling on a Thursday evening! I really liked it though and we will be back.

    First dinner in downtown Albuquerque on Central Ave, and first meal in 7 hours. Ate at the food court at 505 Central Ave, which featured burgers, pizza, fried chicken, and ramen? Fast food setting, where you order at the counter, get a number, and wait for the waiter to bring your meal to your table, chosen by you. About half a dozen restaurants in this food court. Ramen selections include Naruto ramen, black Tonkotsu ramen, curry ramen, Tonkotsu ramen, miso ramen, vegan ramen. Non ramen selections include fried rice with pork, curry rice, spicy salmon, chicken kaarage, kaiso salad, edamame, Takoyaki octopus dumplings, vegetable egg roll, and goyza . 3% surcharge if paying by credit card, which reminds you that you are no longer in California, which prohibits credit card surcharges. Takes a good 15 minutes for our food to cook. $15.95 Naruto ramen came served with a disposable spoon, and disposable chopsticks. Loved the 5 pieces of Chashu pork with a minimum of fat, and mostly meat. The half hard boiled egg, green onions and bamboo shoots added to the flavor of the chicken broth Wife had the $12.95 black Tonkotsu which came with black garlic oil, single Chashu pork, green onions, bamboo shoots, and half an egg. She ate it all, even the pork broth, which is a rarity, as usually she finds the broth too salty. We shared the $11.95 bowl of fried rice with pork, large serving, which came with green onions, scrambled egg, and white onions. We had gotten up at 4am to catch a 7am flight out of San Jose, and had split an omelete at Long Beach airport at 9am, before coming for dinner here. Ate everything without slurping, which is more than I can say for the Naruto employee eating at the bar here.

    Food was ok (just ok). I ate here because there were not too many restaurants that opened at night. It's a good alternative for Asian food. In general, the dishes are salty and didn't have other taste. It's located in the food court. I didn't find any other Asian food in that food court though. Quick service.

    Craving for great curry and ramen, you're in the right place: 1. For a smaller establishment, they offer a good variety of appetizers, ramen and curry. 2. My go to karaage curry place. The brown curry is perfect with the white rice, soft boil eggs and veggies it accompanies. Also loved the ramen choices. 3. Service is fairly fast though when it gets busy it could take a bit though I don't mind waiting for such great comfort food. 4. It is great that the location is on the 505 Central. It's great for groups and date options since the location offers other food businesses like pizza and also drinks.

    Vegan  Miso Ramen

    My first visit to this restaurant located in the Food Court. It was part of my First Friday Artwalk evening. I had vegan ramen in miso broth. It included serving of tofu. Setting is unpretentious; staff was friendly and polite. My food was tasty and portion size very good. Reasonable prices. Nice option in the Food Court.

    Naruto Ramen

    I'm from Japan so I am pretty picky when it comes to ramen. I know I can't compare it to ramen I used to eat back home, but for how small it is, and the quality, I just have a hard time justifying paying close to $17. However, I will spend the money if I really crave ramen. The Karaage was solid. The staff was very friendly and funny, he told me not to get mad even if we had to wait for 20 minutes. Food hall was so busy that day, I expected the wait was going to be long ;)

    Stopped by for a quick lunch at the 505 and saw that Naruto was one of the cheaper options. Ramen is good, whether it's as good as they physical location? I would say no but I don't think most people would be able to tell the difference. Overall not bad, got my ramen craving in. Price wise it is decent for 505 but outside the 505 I could probably get more elsewhere. With Oni down the street this place is a hard sell.

    Tonkatsu ramen
    Lorelei P.

    First time visiting the 505 Central Food Hall but definitely familiar with this Naruto Ramen place. I've enjoyed the location on Central across from University of New Mexico and at Sawmill Market. They never disappoint! Parking is a little hard to find if you're not familiar with the area. Before entering the food hall, you have to get your temperature checked. Which is a safety precaution since I did visit during these uncertain times. If there is a Naruto nearby, I will go get me some ramen. Ramen is my favorite! Today, I got the Tonkotsu Ramen. So delicious and I definitely enjoyed my meal with some cerveza from Moonwalk Bev. I received good customer service, which is hard to come by these days. I appreciate that there is a place like this to go to and visit during this pandemic. Thank you!

    Curry Rice (with chicken karaage)
    Nicole L.

    How enjoyable and what a delight to finally visit Naruto Ramen at the 505 Central food hall! great experience from ordering to receiving my food. The gentleman working the front was personable and would definitely return to this place. I had the curry rice with chicken karaage which I must say very tasteful. the chicken was tender and juicy to bite and to eat I dipped it into the curry sauce which was amazing. The egg and garnishes are good additions to the plate. ofocurse i paired it with a marble lager from moonwalk bar. I can't wait to try the ramen next!

    Best Ramen I've had in years

    Absolutely delicious friendly service downright delicious on point in every way best I've had in years

    Veggie miso ramen
    Elizabeth S.

    I'm so glad we decided to head downtown and try Naruto. I was excited to find a ramen place with vegetarian/vegan options. It was so delicious. The man making the ramen made veggie miso for my kids and he made the curry with vegetable broth for me. It was spicy, flavorful and filling. We will be back!

For me, it tasted just right because this is the flavors I grew up with. The dumpling dough had a nice texture that I prefer. My Ramen had a big fatty pieces of pork which is what I like. They didnt skimp. It was a good bowl of noodle soup. Wouldn't say its the best ramen I ever had, but it was good. Beef roll was good, I would say its one of the better ones I've seen in ABQ where its really filled with beef. Would recommend this. We also got soup dumplings and I will say that we didnt get the proper spoons for them. At first I thought they just didnt offer them, but looking at photos, we never got them. It makes a difference for your eating experience and enjoyment. We will definitely be back as this is one of the better Chinese restaurants in the area and you really get some real Chinese variety and not your basic generic stereotypical menu.

This place is vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free friendly. The portion size is very large. The sauces on the sauce bar are delicious. I really enjoyed being able to mix them in just the ways I chose, that most were vegetarian and vegan, and deciding just what I wanted to eat- which broth, which vegetables and tofu. There is also green onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and such at the sauce bar. There are many options available. The fried mushroom appetizer was good too. Great for a group or date night. It is a casual atmosphere, but a fun experience.

It was so good last year that we actually had a conversation with the owner about them being from San Francisco, after I told him it was the best Chinese food I've had in America outside of San Francisco. Well, that has changed significantly, and not for the better. We made a trip down from Santa Fe this week, specifically to eat at Noodle Works. Yes, we drove over an hour each way on Monday just to eat here. What a mistake! It was clear the General Tzo chicken was microwaved and not fresh fried. It was absolutely inedible! Mall food court Chinese is better than this dish was. Strange because almost exactly 1 year ago their General Tzo's dish was among them best I've ever tasted. I know this dish is not authentic, but to serve pre-fried then microwaved chicken is inexcusable! The Singapore Noodle dish this time was incredibly dry. The curry was more like a dry rub stuck to the noodles than it was a real curry sauce. Again... mall food court quality. Another dish that used to be amazing here. The crab in the crab rangoon was so fishy you could smell it before it was even delivered to the table. It had clearly sat out unrefridgerated during prep for far too long. It was inedible, or of fear of getting food poisoning... they did take it off of our bill. We are so disappointed in how bad the quality has fallen off in the last year! We loved them so much in the past that we will give them one more try, but we will not be making a special trip down from Santa Fe to eat here again. We REALLY hope they get their act together because we really like the employees and owner and want to continue to support them. Management did apologize without being prompted for the slow service and poor quality food, so hopefully they know serious improvement is needed if they are to stay in business. We wish them the best because they are great people. Good luck!

Their Birria tacos are $2 each and are the perfect mix of beef and cheese on a corn tortilla taco. It's not seasoned hamburger, but real, chewy, tasty beef. Go with the Birra tacos, they're the best. The steak taco had a good amount of steak and was 2nd best. The shrimp taco had 2 mid-small shrimp, but was tasty and 3rd best. The chicken taco was packed, but made with chicken and potatoes, bland and dry. All tacos had cheese with cucumbers and onions on the side. No tomatoes or salsa, but I said absolutely no cilantro, so that may be why. A consume is available for dipping and I enthusiastically recommend it, the flavor was rich, meaty and properly seasoned. The manager was attentive and friendly, but the waitress appeared to be a bit inexperienced, slow to get around the tables. She had a great personality, gave great insight on the food and was quite welcoming. She'll be a star in hospitality/food if she puts in the time and effort. The ambiance is your standard "strip mall dive" type booths and tables that aren't there to impress, but get the job done. Muted TVs showing Thor and a Telenovela with comfortably low volume spanish music playing from the counter.
