    A quaint little ramen shop that packs a lot of flavor. I appreciate when a restaurant has a small menu that they do well. I opted for the shoyu ramen. A rich pork broth was complimented with crunchy bean sprouts, springy noodles, and fresh green onions, I always love the addition of a fish cake in my ramen as well. I think we only waited maybe about 5 minutes for our food to come out. Ramen Ray is great when you're craving something comforting!

    Ramen can be VERY hit or miss. Pulling up to this place you can just tell it's going to be good. The menu is small, but for good reason. They do their ramen well. The Black Garlic Tonkotsu was full of flavor and very filling, and the miso spicy wasn't too spicy, but gave just the kick you were looking for. Both dishes came piping hot. Obviously you have to bag some gyoza - and these were fresh, soft, with a slight crust. Already looking forward to my next trip.

    Ramen Ray has long been on my list, and I finally went! Again, growing up in Japan, I am VERY picky about Ramen and it's authenticity. It is sad to admit there are not many authentic ramen options in Indy. But multiple friends from Japan told me they tried and liked Ramen Ray. I had high anticipation. I tried their tan tan pork and it was good. Not mind blowing, but it's good. On their website they claim it's from Hokkaido, Japan. I can believe that after tasting this. But when it comes to thickness and richness, I'd still prefer Kizuki and Jinya. However I'd say this is the best in Indianapolis!

    When this place first opened I feel like it was the only place in Indy that served ramen. Now there are a ton of places so I hate to say it but I haven't been in recently because it was out of the way. I'm happy to be stopping in today because I have always loved the broth and gyoza. Since I've been away I can see some of the updates they have made. You can check in at a kiosk if you prefer it and their menu options have grown to include more ramen and curry!

    Friendly service. Chef greeted us and ask if we had any questions about the menu. Food was excellent.

    If you have never visited Ramen Ray, you will feel just like I do now, which is regret for not have coming to this place sooner! Ramen Ray has constantly been on my to try list, but because I have top Ramen in my mind when I think about noodles, I never made a visit a high priority. Boy was I wrong, worst mistake ever! We came to Ramen Ray as part of devour in these two week restaurant deal event. My husband and I each ordered a bowl of our own Ramen and we were able to share an order of potstickers followed by mochi ice cream. I don't think I've ever had quite an experience like I had at Ramen Ray where as soon as they set the bowl of food down in front of me and I took a smell, I knew this was going to be one of the best meals I've ever had in my life. Everything was perfection. In a portion size of the noodles was glorious! The smell, the taste, the texture it was all tens across the board! My husband sat in silence for most of the meal quietly devouring everything in front of him. If he did make a sound it was only to say this place is so good! It was also my first time trying mochi ice cream which I was pleasantly surprised with! I will definitely be back for more!

    Best Gyoza. Period!
    Vaun C.

    ABSOLUTELY the best gyoza you can get. I haven't had any other near the flavor and texture. They are phenomenal!! The ramen leaves a lot to be desired. However, the customer service is great and the GTOZA are WELL WORTH the visit!

    A hot bowl of ramen sounded delicious when I was under the weather on Christmas Eve, so we ordered delivery from Ramen Ray. I was concerned about how it would travel, but as you can see from the photo everything was carefully packaged and all I had to do was combine it all in my own bowl. We both ordered the spicy miso ramen since it was listed as most 'popular'. Though it's a little expensive, you get a huge portion. I was hoping it would be a little spicier, but the broth was very flavorful. I wasn't a big fan of the pork but the veggies and noodles were great and the egg was perfect. next time I'll probably try veggie or tofu and add extra spice.

    Went here for Devour Indy and truly couldn't be happier. The service was so positive and the food was DELICIOUS. We got the chicken paitan and shoyu ramen and will absolutely be coming back!! We also got the vanilla soft serve and a slushy and are leaving with full and happy hearts and stomachs

    This place has the best ramen in town!! I love the low key atmosphere. You order at the counter, choose a seat, and they bring your food out to you. It's hard to go wrong with really any of the Ramen, but the spicy miso is particularly good. It's kinda out in the middle of nowhere, but the parking is easy. Definitely a fun place to bring people who have never had ramen before.

The drinks, the ramen, the dessert...we love it all, and we love spending our money at a local business. For years now, the kitchen has substituted rice for ramen for me because I have gluten intolerance. I have always asked respectfully, explained why, and said thank you, every single time. Tonight my husband and I walked down to Strangebird for dinner, ordered drinks and dinner, and I had *just* said to my husband that Strangebird has come to feel like a second home. Then the server came out and told us that the chef has decided they will no longer permit any modifications, including those that meet dietary needs. We were out on the quiet patio surrounded by other customers, so on top of being totally blindsided, it was actually pretty embarrassing, too. Folks, let me tell you how much I wish I could just eat the ramen noodles like everybody else. So much food that I love (and in some cases spent years learning to make myself) went out the window forever when my body stopped being able to handle wheat. But at Strangebird, I could still go in and enjoy the depth of flavor in every other component of a bowl of ramen. And that meant the absolute world to me. I'm heartbroken.

I'll be honest: I arrived around 1:30pm and it was completely empty, which caught me off guard. But the vibe was nice and calming, the menu was extensive (ramen and boba options for days), and I landed on the spicy miso ramen--exactly what I needed to warm me up. Nailed it. The broth was rich, savory, and comforting with just the right amount of heat. Every ingredient tasted vibrant and fresh. The green onions, tender pork, and perfectly marinated soft-boiled egg were the ideal companions swimming in that spicy miso goodness. On a gray, cold Indianapolis day, this bowl absolutely hit the spot. Can't wait to come back and try the boba.
