OMG...the pork...I think they season it with cocaine! So good!!! They braise it for 12 hours and it just falls apart. The seasoning is so good! This is coming from someone who normally could care less if there is meat in their ramen. The broth is so good and soothing. I like to get mine spicy. You can order the spicy ramen or add on to any of the others. I also like the black garlic oil that can also be added on. The owner / chef was very informative and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The menu shares the story of how Ramen Kai came to be. Its a very cute story[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They sell other Asian odds and ends, even fish cake earrings, so cute![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It is hard to see from the street because it is on the side of the building in the back. The parking is limited. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are 2 seating areas.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I have to eat here every time I am in Laredo. read more

I was in Laredo for work and decided I wanted a little something to eat. That little something was Ramen. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is a small joint and just some plain tables with people sitting and eating at.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a display case with anime memorabilia and ramen utensils, things like that.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the gyoza and a bowl of ramen to go along with a taro drink. The food was all pretty good. read more

Passing through Laredo for work biz and it was my first time trying this Ramen spot. Got the recommendation from a coworker . Let me start by saying I love Ramen. Ramen is my jam .It's 112 degrees here and I will want Ramen. I will always want ramen . Ramen may in fact be my life . I started with the Gyoza (pork )for a little treat then went in hot and heavy with the spicy Miyagi. The large bowl ‍. It's apparently a crowd favorite and worth it !! The ramen here was absolutely fantastic! Everything was cooked perfectly . Nothing and I mean nothing needed for this to be a completely balanced work of art. Honestly I could have had another egg and more pork belly but thats just my appetite talking. Please try this place if you're in town. Service was great and the order came out pretty quick even with a decent crowd inside . It's a little spot near the well wash laundromat. The parking situation isn't great but I'd be willing to park in the middle of the street next time just to get another bowl. Try this spot!! read more

My friend & I got there as soon as it opened. The staff was friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is very anime themed. If you truly watch anime, you'll recognize the music played.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The appetizer we had was the takoyaki & it was absolutely flavorful. Very well made & the presentation was perfect. I did take a bite out of my ramen bowl before the picture. The ramen servings are half or full. The Chicken Paitan was a full serving & it was HUGE. Good for sharing. Broth was savory and well balanced. The spicy Miyagi was 4/10 spicy. The meat was very umami-ful. The eggs in both soups were very cold. But overall 6.5/10. Would go back to try the rest of the menu and probably more towards the evening. read more

Had a spicy ramen here and it was delicious!!! I will also say the shrimp gyoza was the best I've ever had so far, they are crispy and warm! I do wish they had more drink options though. They are very limited to sodas and water. Service was good and food came out QUICK! The restaurant itself is a small space so just consider that for big groups (you can always add tables together though) We visited on a Saturday afternoon so it was pretty busy! Overall great ramen place! read more

The Miyagi ramen is so good. Spicy variation available . Osaka fries are also very good. Service is fast .

The Spicy Ramen is in my opinion the best in Laredo. It is so good that I'm craving it right now!

This was my first time eating at the restaurant, the food was very good bring my soup came in barely warm. The mini rice bowl with chicken was delicious as well as the tokoyaki. Also got to try both the hybrid and miyagi ramen, both were good. Cashier was very helpful when choosing the food, Service was in good timing while the place was at half capacity. read more

Never had Ramen before and I'm really glad this was my first place to try it. I really do recommend the Miyagi for beginner. The service was OK. You pay at the booth and go sit down they bring you the food but they do not come and check up on you guys. Overall the restaurant has such a kickback vibe to it. Perfect for a cute date night experience. read more
