I recently enjoyed some of the best ramen I've ever had. The noodles were cooked to perfection with just the right firmness, and the broth was spot on. Service was equally excellent--efficient, attentive, and the "Belle" robot was delightful to watch. Although the space is compact, it is spotlessly clean and very well laid out. Musashi will definitely be a regular spot for me going forward, and I look forward to trying everything on the menu. read more

Ramen Musashi - Spicy Miso Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Palm Desert, California

SHORT ANSWER: Yes, very good for small local ramen restaurant. LOCATION: Located in Palm Desert in the Whole Foods cluster of retail businesses. Parking can be a nightmare... FACILITY: Nice and clean inside, greeted at entry and seated immediately. MENU: Pretty simple to read, I am not a ramen expert but found what sounded good, and it was. FOOD PREP: it was oaky, not great like some of the other ramen placed we visit. FOOD QUALITY: very good, enjoyed the creamy base. WAITSTAFF: nice and very professional, very fast service at lunch. OVERALL VALUE: just ok, we shared a ramen bowl which made the $ better, but one bowl would be way too much for one person... we also enjoy a spicy tuna roll so we left stuffed. TIP: if you're an expert maybe this is great, just saying my world was not rocked. read more

Good ramen. There's enough noodles, but the pork size is pretty small. I suggest ordering extra pork. read more

We stopped by on a Friday evening and there was no wait. I would give it a 4*, but there was a long wait for our food even when there were no new customers. Tonkatsu ramen had great flavor with a lot of noodles and the dragon roll was crunchy and delicious. It's a little bit pricey, but we were in a hurry and looking for a quick place to eat. read more

I picked up a to go order from here while I was visiting my boyfriend's family. We'd had a long day and I realized that my tank was empty and I needed food--fast. They had a super easy order system online and the food was very thoughtfully packaged and easy to reheat. It was also SO GOOD. While I was definitely starving, it was exactly what I wanted. Would absolutely come back and eat in the restaurant next time I'm in town. read more

We were looking for ramen on a cold and rainy day and Ramen Musashi did not disappoint. No frills restaurant but the service was good and the ramen was tasty. The noodles were cooked well and the veggie shoyu ramen broth had a good depth of flavor. Good option for ramen in the palm desert area. read more

This place really hit the spot on a rare rainy and cold winter day. The ramen was flavorful and the dumplings were also pretty good. The service was also very attentive even while the random delivery robot helped deliver the food. I also like the option for some cold ramen and would like to come back on a hot day to try it read more

The food was phenomenal and the service was stellar. A beautiful little shop that feels cozy and homey. Sun was incredibly kind and helpful with any questions we had about menu items and checked on us every once in a while. Not a local but I will definitely be returning to this resturant when I'm in the area! read more

The broth and pork are really good. Only half an egg and 3 inches of pork for 17.50 insane to me. We ordered an extra egg for 3.00. Egg was also really salty . I do like the spice level on the broth read more

This place has amazing Ramen and good service! I'm a big fan of their noodles; I think they're the best in the whole Ramen scene. The only thing is, they don't put a lot of meat in their Ramen. I'd give it three stars because they only add two tiny pork chop pieces. You can ask for more, but honestly, you're already paying a bit too much. But overall, the food is fantastic I just don't think there pricing is fair with the amount of food you get. read more

Great service very clean and delish!!! We love this placeeverything we've had is very good!!! Faves are Kale noodle salad, ramen and sushi rolls, but all I haven't tried yet, I'm sure is good read more

If I could give negative stars I will. The disrespect. The lady that is in the entrance looked at us with a terrible face when we walked in. We were the second table to enter the restaurant and 2 more parties entered after us. I have to mention, the other 3 parties were white and we were the only Mexican. They took the order for the other three parties and didn't get to us until they got to the other 3 parties. The lady was very racist and did not provided any service besides getting a soda for us and she got upset when we told her the can of soda they gave us was flat. I would never go back nor recommend it. Is so sad to see another minority act that way. Shame on them and their behavior. read more

Excellent ramen, great service! The noodles had great texture and very flavorful. Lovely little shop with kind and welcoming service. Love the robotic delivery of food to tables, which is enhance with the owners placing the order at each table and checking with diners to ensure they're satisfied with the delicious meals. Will certainly be back. read more

Their ramen is great, better than any other place I've tried in the desert the sushi leaves a little bit to be desired, but overall I was happy with this restaurant. read more

I am a ramen freak. Been hunting ramen joints since moving into the valley. This spot is pretty solid, noodles had a good chew, broth was flavorful and the chashu was tender and delicious (ordered the miso tonkatsu and spicy tuna roll). I was very pleased. Hubby had the chicken kaarage, vegetable croquettes, fried dumplings and the shrimp tempura (his favorite). Robot delivers food table side. read more

Nami was our server and she was amazing! This was our first time at a Japanese restaurant. We came for my son's birthday and we had such a great experience and the atmosphere was pleasant. We especially enjoyed seeing our food come out on a robot! I can't tell you what we ordered but you can see the photos. I would recommend you try it if you love ramen and a good broth! Our dishes were super flavorful. Nami brought out a complimentary green tea matcha ice cream for the birthday boy. So good! Of course we all tried it. read more

Not open until 5 pm for dinner. Hours need to be corrected. Would've like to have tried it but nope.

Best Ramen in the desert! They make the noodles fresh in house. The fried shrimp are delicious too. The owners are super nice.

Food was amazing, service was amazing. Great experience. The black mayu tonkatsu was delicious. The garlic broth was creamy and not overpowering. I added extra chashu and I would recommend. read more

Not great. The chashu was good, but very small. The noodles were low quality. The tonkotsu broth was thin, bland, and probably watered down. The ramen is overpriced at $17.50 and they still charged us an extra $3 for one egg. That's $18 for a dozen eggs using their Math, but Trader Joe's is a few miles away and only charges $3.50 for a dozen eggs. We also paid nearly $20 for a small, subpar sushi roll. The service was good, but suffice to say we won't be back. read more

3rd visit. Consistently excellent. I'd give 6 stars if I could. Best Ramen in the Coachella Valley, and the best service of just about anyplace. Thank you for another great evening, Ramen Musashi! read more

I was in the mood for Ramen. We ordered the Ika karaage(calamari) and tonkatsu ramen. Great and friendly service, and clean. I appreciate the ramen artwork on the walls and the wooden tree shelf behind the register. They also had a robot that brought our ramen. The calamari came with 6 big pieces and its dip was delicious. Ika tender! The ramen was light and flavor was mild. Noodles are different from the noodles that I'm used to. It still hit the spot. read more

If you want the best ramen in the valley this is your spot. Recommended by a coworker this has become my wife and I's special treat spot. The tonkatsu ramen with black garlic oil needs to be on your bucket list. The chicken karrage is also excellent. The staff is almost overwhelmingly friendly and polite. If you ask for some extra sauce or silverware they promptly return with it. The vibe inside is very chill. There are not a ton of tables so sometimes you might have to wait for a table, but it's totally worth a wait. We have probably had this place 10 times over the years and never a bad experience. read more

I'm sorry folks , I feel like I keep leaving bad reviews of restaurants in the Coachella Valley but, they are bad. I suggest spending the $42 or $100. You're about to lay down here and drive to Gardena California and have authentic Ramen. This is not it. It's very sad. It's authentic Ramen, for those that know. It's not good Ramen. read more

I went in to use thee restroom. They have a sign on the front door saying restrooms are for paying customers only. I asked if I could use it because I'm disabled and I couldn't walk to the next business. I said I'll buy a soda so I could use the restroom the owner as about to sell me one. A waiter stepped in and said restrooms are for dine in customers only. The song clearly does not say that. This place if not people friendly especially handicap people. This is wrong in every way This sign does not say dine in customers only. I am very disappointed in how they treat handicap people. read more

I ordered the Yuzu Tori ramen and it was average. Broth lacked flavor and texture of the noodles were alright. I definitely had better ramen elsewhere but considering this is in the Palm Desert area where there's not much Asian food in general, I would say it's not as bad. One of the better Asian restaurants in the area. read more

Won't return as they only cared about closing early and cheaped-out on the ingredients. Arrived at 2:30 and they told us it was take out only; they close at 3. Fine - we got takeout. The broth was good (not great), the very few mushrooms and bamboo shoots were good, but there was ONE SMALL SLICE of pork in the bowl. Really? $18 for a bowl of noodles, couple of veggies, and one slice of chashu? read more

Do yourself a favor and get a bowl of ramen here. The broth is homemade and beyond delicious. My friend and I both ordered the chicken ramen with veggies and didn't say a word to each other because we were so happy devouring our ramen. The place is located in a strip mall and it has 5-6 tables inside. The service was excellent t and they have a little waiter robot that delivers the ramen to the table. Seriously one of the best Ramen places I've ever been to! Enjoy!!! read more
