    The service was good. The ramen was tasty and reasonably priced. We had the pineapple fried rice and the teriyaki chicken with our ramen. The lunch special from 11-3pm seems like the way to go. Unfortunately we missed it by 30 minutes.

    The Vegetarian Ramen was absolutely delightful! I asked for it without the egg to make it vegan, and it turned out awesome. They offer mild, medium, and super spicy options. I went with medium, which had good flavor but wasn't quite spicy enough for me, so I added a little sriracha from the table. Perfect touch. The ambiance was cozy and inviting. It's a small spot, but that adds to the charm. It made for a great little Monday dinner date. Service was exceptional too; our food came out surprisingly fast after we ordered. I'll definitely be back!

    Tonkatsu Ramen

    Great spot for if you're craving ramen but are a broke college student. My usual go-to is the mild pork tonkatsu ramen which to some might be on the saltier end but to me really hits the spot (and satisfies my moderate sodium addiction lol). Portions are huge and it's hard to find good ramen at this price point nowadays. Interior is compact but cute and the service is always so spot-on and efficient--perfect for a quick lunch break in between classes or before a long dreaded cram sesh at Cabell. Definitely recommend for your next ramen fix!

    omgg why i have avoiding this spot.. I am not one to bash just because they serve what I don't eat.. They have a lot of pork options but was able to readjust my meal with the Veggie broth.. I was missing the spice but the overall taste was very good... The shrimp tempura CRISPY and fresh.. The noodles were el dente, not too soft or crunchy!! I am very pleased to say this was a little different for me but also satisfying!!! I will be returning

    Came here on a Monday night. It's a quaint little spot basically on VCU's campus. The vibes were good and the staff were friendly! We both got the vegetarian ramen... one medium and one mild. They let you choose your spice level but there is also some sauces on the table if you're feeling brave! The broth was super flavorful and the noodles were soft but not over cooked, which is crucial. This was my first time at a ramen spot so I'm no expert, but all around lovely experience and food! Would definitely eat again!

    34. Miso Ramen and 41. Spicy Miso Ramen

    First time having ramen and I'm thoroughly impressed! This place was easy to miss as it's on the concern and kinda looks like a hole in the wall. It's fairly small on the inside (roughly 8 tables and a bar in the window). I visited on a Saturday afternoon and it was fairly quiet but seemed to have good business. The servers were nice and even recommended me the Miso Ramen. I ended up trying the Spicy Miso Ramen and it actually wasn't that spicy. Both were good tho! The edamame was not as salty as I expected but not bad. I'd definitely visit again!

    The food was great, the staff were great, and I just don't think you can ask for anything more.

    We come after a recommendation from a local at a bar we were at and it did not disappoint. 10/10 everything was so good. The staff was great and really helped us get our order together. I loved how tiny the shop was and it was very busy in there after having dinner I see why it's so busy. Will definitely have to come back on our next vacation.

    1. Tonkotsu Ramen Lunch Special
    Menghai T.

    I got a lunch special tonkotsu ramen and it came with tako yaki. The tako yaki was really good, fried to perfection with a sweet , salty taste. The ramen wasn't the best I've had. The egg was slightly overcooked, just one slice of pork, and the noodles seemed a little off. The broth was decent, savory but not the best I've had. Staff was nice and relocated us from a high top to a table when it became available. Overall the lunch special for $13 is an amazing deal , you get some super amazing tako yaki and a decent bowl of ramen. I'd try it again during there lunch special hours. Food: 5.6 Staff/service: 7.5 Overall: 6.0/10

    39. Chicken Katsu Ramen
    Cynthia A.

    One of the best ramens I've ever had. It was so flavorful and the chicken was perfectly crisp. The service was amazing. They were all friendly and attentive. The place is small and cozy, nothing crazy. I will definitely be back.

    I came in with my family of 7. We very much enjoyed the experience and the food. We found the food to be lacking in flavor, but was overall good. Staff was very nice and helpful. The facility was a bit cramped but appeared to be clean. It is conveniently located.

    3. Miso Ramen Lunch Special
    Stephanie T.

    Oh man, best miso ramen in RVA! I mean what more can you say. I got the pork buns, they were soggy on the bottom, and weren't the best I've ever had but again, they don't call it the Ramen spot for no reason. Another thing, there's a bubble tea place right next door. Great location!

    Service was rushed but not rude. Food was alright. Nothing to ride home about. The dining area is small so it definitely depends on your luck on getting a table. The front door seems to take forever to close and cold air kept getting in.

I have heard good things from colleagues, some of them state that this is their favorite ramen in Richmond, though I have to say, I'm not convinced this place deserves their high praise. When we arrived, we ordered a drink at the bar, but were quickly seated thereafter, and our drinks that we ordered at the bar simply never arrived. When we spoke to the server about this, she seemed confused, and appeared to be somewhat new, and ultimately did not honor that happy hour prices of our drinks that ended up showing up 30 minutes later. Furthermore, one drink that I ordered was regular price, but the price listed on the menu was incorrect, and again the server would not the lower price that was printed on the menu. I was not informed of this error until the receipt was printed. The ramen itself was fine. I've had better, I've had worse. I felt like the broth itself was overall way too salty, and lacked the depth the flavor that I was seeking in a ramen broth. The noodles were well cooked and al dente, and the toppings were a nice addition. All in all, my experience here was rather disappointing, and I really hope that there's better ramen in Richmond.

I've been seeing Ginza Soot but haven't tried it. My husband wanted ramen (we usually go to Takara) and we saw Ginza had ramen on the menu so we decided to try it. We ordered takeout: -Korean wings half regular and 1/2 spicy. They were just okay. Better Korean wings are available around town so I'd skip these next time. - Beef gyoza- reminded me of the frozen ones I buy from Lotte or Trader Joe's. They were okay but I didn't get the 'made in house' vibe from these. I've had better. Wouldn't order them again. - Pork tonkatsu ramen spicy. Granted it was takeout, but the package seems like it was assembled and stored in the fridge until someone ordered. The broth had to be heated up. It wasn't great. Wouldn't order it again. - general Tao's chicken spicy. This was way too sweet and not a hint of spiciness. The broccoli was overcooked. This is on par will mall Chinese food. Actually I've had better general Tso's at the mall kiosk. I bet the drinks and teas are good. For food, this one is not for me. This goes in the once and done column for me.

You can pick from a variety of ingredients and everything looked fresh. We also had the General Tso chicken with broccoli and white rice. Let me tell you, it was VERY HOT. Not spicy hot, like blow on your food as you eat hot, so be careful. It was very flavorful though and I took some leftovers and reheated in the air fryer just fine. My husband tried a watermelon drink with a clear ball at the top that made for an interesting conversation. No, he didn't swallow it. Definitely try this place. It had many other things on the menu.

The Yume roll had good flavor but it felt like the filling with the crunch was a lot of the filling which made it a little bland, nice crunch and simple flavors.

If you are looking for a traditional American-Chinese food restaurant (think buffet-style items), this is likely not the place for you. There were no mishaps or snafus with our orders.
